    Who do you think you are, coming on here with well thought out, fact based, posts? This is the n606 Leeds board, we don't do that here. <laugh>

    Sure, we have a hell of a December though. So we get a better take on where we’re at when we’ve played every team.

    Fans hope to see the side progress. This season we haven’t been as fluent in possession as we were last.

    The positive is we’ve largely done ok against the sides likely to be fighting at the bottom of the table and denying them points whilst gaining points ourselves is critical to survival. Like Emu I include Brentford in that list, so really important game this weekend… especially as 3 points gives a bit of breathing space for December.

    Hay is now saying he believes Phillipe Clement from Club Brugge will be the new head coach and Paul Robinson saying Victor Orta to Newcastle for a big pay rise. These people are fkg idiots

    There is a view that Bielsa has done what Bielsa has never done before, and thats actually come up with plan B. Plan B means less attacking slightly but more defensive meaning fewer goals conceded, but fewer goals scored.? Heres me saying we will be back to normal when we have Bill back at RB linking with Rapha and we have Bamford back. If we have indeed changed our focus then everyone should shut up about how crap our attackers are? I think our defenders have grown in skills and we know Struijk has and we know when Llorente is there we are better?

    I agree with this except are some complaining about performance as opposed to results? We lost games last season but gave a bloody good account of ourselves and went down fighting aka the Liverpool game and even the high scoring loss to scum?

    i think he actually did that towards the end of last season. Our last 10 games or so were much less basketball… and it coincided with our good run at the end of last season… which raised everyone’s hopes for this season.

    Easy to say Batty but he'd not play 10 games he would be booked just about every game. I liked Dacourt I always thought he was under rated.

    Blimey, he's put on a bit of timber. Thought it was the lad from Corrie at first.

    I have to admit to an error here as its not Clemente with the £30m buy out clause. The buy out clause is for the Sporting Lisbon head coach Ruben Amorin who is another mate of Cictor Orta. But the stories are coming thick and fast almost like the media are willing Biesla to walk away, so twots like Hay make shyt up.
    1. Martinez who is the guy living in the UK studying Prem football?
    2. Ruben Amorin from Sporting Lisbon - league champions and top of league.
    3. Phillipe Clemente from Club Brugge - 2 seasons on the bounce league titles and won it with another club
    4. Abel Ferraira from Palmeiras has just won back to back Copa De Libertadores .
    Another Phil Hay story today is that Roberts, Shackelton and Klich are all leaving in January

    Can't see them all leaving, as we'd need 3 better replacements in first, & we all know that's not going to happen.

    Btw, why would Bielsa continue to play them if he was getting rid?

    Shop window and he really hasn't had much of an option recently, but I agree we aren't going to ship anybody out from the 1st team unless we have incoming.

    Morris did a great job destroying Derby.

    Wayne Rooney has dismissed reports Derby County could be liquidated unless HM Revenue & Customs reduces the amount owed by the club.

    The Championship club went into administration in September and efforts to find a buyer are ongoing.

    Derby and its related companiesowe HMRC £29.3mand the Daily Mail reported that if part of that sum is not written off, the clubcould go out of business.

    "This club will exist. This club will grow," Derby boss Rooney said.
