He played Darlow and he wasn’t very good so yes a poor signing from him. Cresswell seems to be that mythical player who gets better and whose importance grows the less he plays but most importantly, you still haven’t given me the name of a replacement you want. I am still waiting patiently.
As the late Terry Venables always said, the phrase “practice makes perfect” was wrong. He said “practice makes permanent” so if you practice the wrong technique you will the same mistakes permanently.
Hollywood star Will Ferrell has reportedly invested in Leeds United resulting in him owning a significant share of the club. The comedian and actor, 56, has become an avid football supporter and has decided to deepen his commitment to the sport by investing in Leeds, according to reports by The Sun. They claim that he has poured a substantial amount into their US owners, 49ers Enterprises.
Tigers fan in peace. Aren't some of you being a bit harsh on Farke? At Christmas you were miles behind Ipswich and Leicester then from NYD you won something like 15 of the next 16 to get you neck and neck with them. How many were calling for his head then? No one outside of Ipswich expected them to have the season they have done, so well done to them. So you just missed out on the automatic spots but the play-offs is a lottery and there is no team with any great momentum going into them yet some of you are talking as if you have lost them already? Surely Farke got the gig because he has had experience of taking a club into the PL? Even if you don't go through via the play offs, which players are you going to lose over the summer? Summerville? Gnonto maybe? Any others? You will still have a squad with plenty of PL experience and will be one of the favourites to go up next time. Maybe see you next season.
The same eleven will start both legs of playoffs barring injuries. Only possible change is if Bamford get over his fear of crowds and makes a return
I said he was no good ten games in we'd just beaten 'udders 4-1 I'd seen enough of his tactics, style of play and stupid substitutions to say he will **** us up.
We're one of a handful of clubs that have played play off football 5 times and still not gone up through them. That's why most Leeds fans have a defeatist attitude towards play off football. I fully agree with you though.
anyone who has ever played golf can testify to that my old coach used to say ‘perfect practice makes perfect’
I’m not ignoring the question, I’ve actually answered it a couple of times. If we fail to get promoted we need to keep Farke. He’s not the worst coach but he has underperformed. Keeping him will give us stability and we still have loan rats to deal with. If we get promoted, I’d look at replacing him. Pointless throwing names about as a PL Leeds is more attractive than a championship one.
you speak sense sir… are you sure you’re a hull fan? I was relieved you didn’t make the playoffs as I reckon you’d have been the team to beat. Expect you to be in the mix next year and hope we aren’t there to find out
Now there is a negative tone to this (I agree with you btw) so the question is, should there be changes or are you a bit underwhelmed by the way Farke is handling things
If we’d have had any squad of players below the top 4 I’d have said Farke has worked miracles. The fact is he has a squad of players to pick from that should be the envy of nearly everyone in this division. He hasn’t really had them playing as a team much at all this season, we’ve managed on sheer skilful individual moments. He’s a good Championship coach who should be doing better. We beat you 3-1 it flattered us, Dan James and Summerville providing exactly those individual flashes of brilliance when for 75 minutes you played us off the park We’ve seen first hand with Bielsa at this level what you can do as a team and with a top coach. Our starting 11 and Subs bench has far more talent than the team Bielsa took up
Bielsa isn't a normal Championship coach. He's prolly the best coach ever at this level. They don't come around often. Pre season I was banging on about Corberan and I stand by it. Corberan has worked wonders this season at West Brom with no cash and having to sell players. He'd have got this squad up but he wasn't available. Farke did excellent at the start of the season with the rats. Rodon, Gruev, Ampadu have all been successful signings. Kamara has played his part too. There's only really Anthony that hasn't been a hit. He done okay.
Shamrock Rovers manager similar background to Keiran McKenna, doing very well at Rovers playing good football. It was said with tongue in cheek mate but if we were struggling at the wrong end of the championship next season and Farke is sacked he'd be worth looking at if we couldn't attract a top established coach.
