    Yep, I’d be happy with Chris Wilder also.

    I’d like us to do new manager speculation if we dreadfully underperform in the next five games. Not now.

    I wouldn't. I do not rate him as a PL manager at all.

    Whilst I do rate Ralph I think the next 5 games will be the decider. Minimum 7-9 points, anything less we are going to be in the relegation zone with potentially 1 or 2 wins from 13 games.

    Huge game tomorrow to ease the pressure and worries of fans.

    Conversation killer.

    You could at least get some puns going.

    To be Frank, Howe many Wilder suggestions would there have been if we had carried on?

    I think Ralph has been well below Par-dew to him not having an assistant coach. If the tippy tappy football isn't working, then maybe we just need to Lamp(it)'ard and hope for the best

    Shoot me now.

    Getting back to Leeds, I’m reading from Ralph’s presser that Broja will prob not start the game. I’m starting to think a draw would not be a disaster but if we treat them like a top 10 side and they play like one (not putting 11 men behind the ball) then I think we will win!

    It's Ralph they want to give the bullet. Or if on the training pitch he'll have to avoid the elbow AKA the Spanish archer.

    Bielsa would rather get beat 5-0 then get 10 men behind the ball.

    Raphinha is on his way back from Brazil with two goals, and two assists, but considering the match didn't finish until 3am this morning, he isn't going to play. Kelvin Phillips has a calf strain, but may plsy. Bamfords injured, so is Ayling and Koch

    I met Peter around 10 years ago. Lovely fella. Very friendly, very modest. Lived in a modest 3 bed semi in Regents Park.

    Wotte you on about? Too many Gray areas to make a wise suggestion.

    I think Ralph will risk Stuart Armstrong in the JWP position for this one

    McCarthy
    Livramento Bednarek Salisu KWP
    Walcott Armstrong Romeu Elyounoussi
    Armstrong Tella

    Bench: Forster, Peraud, Lyanco, Valery, Diallo, Redmond, Djenepo, Broja, Long

    More likely than SA being risked from ko. Ralph previous operandi has been to slowly reintegrate. Can’t see that changing.
