    Maybe you watched The Waltons? <laugh> <whistle>

    Seriously though it’s weird how they know exactly what you’ve watched/searched for and then get it so wrong when they recommend you something <doh> ****ing useless tossers

    Roma cannot afford to send RK back and he won’t want to come back is it means his wages get reduced by 60%. There should also be new rules for cheating skint football clubs who abuse the loan system because they can’t afford to buy any players. Roma and many other top European clubs are skint but are allowed to loan loads of players without having a buy clause at the end. It’s cheating in my eyes and if you can’t afford players you can’t have any…… fk Roma

    Tbh Elland, I thought he was very fortunate to score that one (even though I was delighted he did). Thought he was extremely lucky the ball ran for him, didn’t think his close control was that great, or the shot was struck that well.

    I want him to be successful, but he just doesn’t cut it for me. Lacks confidence, which is essential in a striker. Hopefully this will come, but I’m not too hopeful.

    You would have thought that finish would have given him loads of confidence

    Was he a costly mistake - yes. Leeds were thinking about the future, without a care in the World for their present predicament. They needed someone who could hit the ground running, but instead paid way way way over the top for a guy who 7 months on, hasn't shown where his true level is?

    After watching is performance against Ipswich, I was ready to eat my words, but that terrible penalty against Salford, and not quite clicking at the weekend, it may be a while yet until we start to get more out of him.

    Tbh the marking was very poor not one of them attempted a tackle, he's still way off the finished article..... it's not his fault about the fee but at present we've been royally mugged

    He will never be any good and Farke has to try and improve him but the lad has no guts.

    Rutter was unfortunate 1st half when the keeper pulled off a really solid save with his right hand.

    The attempted lob in the 2nd half looked a tired effort. He had covered alot of ground and has missed time through injury too. Just a thought, if he'd have scored the lob we'd be on here saying that he got two worldies in 2 games and he's a world beater.

    Fine margins. Let the lad get fully match fit and get some games under his belt.

    I never though his first goal was any good. No one tried to block him it was poor by them.

    It was good control and a really good finish. You can't blame him for defenders not stopping him. He took advantage of the situation and finished it off really well.

    He was **** against Salford mind. He's a kid, let him play a few games and find his feet. Farke was at fault Saturday. You don't buy the leagues best #9 and then play him in midfield. It's ****ing ridiculous. What's the point.

    Forget that thinking of the future. That excuse was us d for every dud orta signed and there was dozens and dozens and dozens of them. Same old they’re for the future got rattled only for them to be given away for nothing three years down the line. One for the future my arse. Another product of an imbecile masquerading as a director of football. Just pray Farke can make something of him and recoup a few Bo
