    Yet he won’t take a chance on many of his own players who are coveted by many other clubs?

    Koch signing a pre contract to stay in Germany. Relegation cost us getting a fee for him.

    Rodrigo doing great in the desert with 5 goals and 4 assists from 10 games. Given an interview where he thanks Leeds for giving him and his family 3 great years and was sorry for being involved in relegation of this historic club. Bielsa was brilliant and under him maybe not relegated. Relegation also cost us a much higher transfer fee as we only got £4m for him

    Marco Van Bamford has form with his left foot and Bielsa went ballistic when he saw him do it. It took him only 5 years to score another beauty…..

    He did his bit for Leeds with the blatant penalty. Couldn’t have made it more obvious. The ref was the cheating ****

    RIP chief

    Speaking on BBC’s Don’t Go To Bed Just Yet podcast [8 January, 6m 33s], Pope said: “It’s so sad because he signs this new deal, he’s got the number five shirt so you think he’s starting, and I’m thinking ‘great’.

    “I try not to let my own personal views get in the way of this, but I don’t like seeing players who come through the academy go without getting a real chance. “Now, I get it – Joe Rodon has been exceptional. But to lose Cresswell, without seeing him have a Leeds career, is a real shame. He’s such a talented player. Yesterday sort of sealed that for me, unless something remarkable happens.”
    Buchan added: “I interviewed him before the season started and he talked about expecting to play more. He spoke really well that day.

    “Yet here we are with him not involved with the squad for an FA Cup game. Staggering.”

    Fans and commentators need to stop speculating and leave it to Farke and Cresswell.

    If Charlie is good enough (for a Leeds career) then he'll have to earn it.

    Meslier
    Struijk
    Shackleton
    Gray
    Summerville
    Joseph

    Every one of those are great examples of just getting on with it.

    Plymouth at home.
    Only the top 4 have scored more goals than them.
    Only 3 teams have conceded more.
    Interesting.

    It's been widely reported that Summerville had a bit of attitude when he first arrived. It took him a while to 'just get on with it'. That's why you give young players time to mature.

    If we beat Plymouth, the Wallys game on the 16th Mar will be off. That'll **** my 60th celebrations up, unless we get a home draw for that round. Just my luck.<wah><wah><wah><wah>

    Correct and Summerville needed strong messages from his coaches and the club.

    Cresswell should get his head down and work his socks off and then hopefully his opportunity will come again.
