Good Morning Everyone, Leeds have gone from undefeated in six games to having just won once in the last seven, four of them defeats. There does seem to be a bit more confidence around the place, and certainly if truth be known, looking at the stats, we could have easily have won both our previous games (which would have put us joint 11th). Who is not good enough to wear our shirt? There could be a host of names that get mentioned. One of them surely has to be Silvestri. When he first arrived at Elland Road, he was rated one of the best in the division. I remember listening to a journalist (think his name was Brown) saying (on Talk Sport) there were only a handful of keepers in the Prem that were better than him. What has happened? The less said about our defence the better... We must have 15 midfielders. Apart from Cook and Dallas (who must have a clause in his contract that he starts every game), everybody else seems invisible. Let's have a look up front. We have Antenucci and Wood, and errrrrr......... Errrrrrrrr Still thinking...... Fcuk it, that's about it! Ow, we have Doukara! If anything were to happen to Ant or Wood (or both) we might as well wheel Eire onto the pitch (armchair n all)!!! Evans is speaking to Cellino and Glover this week about strengthening the squad before the emergency loan window shuts next month) How many times have we been able to secure anyone half decent on a loan basis. Think the last time was Gradel 5 or 6 years ago! Lastly, I will finish with a post from Phil Hay that at least gives us a glimmer of a chance of seeing light at the end of the tunnel:- please log in to view this image Phil Hay @PhilHayYEP Oct 24 The thing that reassured me today was that Evans seemed to see what the rest of us were seeing. At least knows what he has to fix.
So if he can see what is wrong when is Evans going to take Cellino and Silvestri out with a hunting rifle?
Morning all. Would prefer to park in goals in my armchair and move Silvestri up front. Bought a new gadget at weekend for Thursday's game, it's a massage unit. Wanted to make sure I'd get some enjoyment from watching game
Morning all, just read an article in the YEP by Whelan stating a new keeper should be high on our priority list. If Wood or Antenucci got injured it wouldn't be a massive problem, take away spot kicks and how many goals between them? We can easily complain when the keeper makes an error but the easy chances I keep hearing we miss when having a chance to score is surely just as bad. Wood for me is amongst the worst strikers we have had now, if we hadn't been cursed with Paynter and Morrison he might actually be top of the list. I would prefer Billy Sharp in the team to Wood.
Evans said he was coming back after his loan at Bury. Think it's only a month so only a week or so left
Likely Evans wanting to have a look at him as he'd clearly know nothing about him, not having seen him. Hopefully he can impress more than he has done since his move down south
