    Terrible appointment in the first place, it was always going to end badly

    There's an arrogance around some clubs that think they can bring in any old manager and expect it to work. The PL is an unforgiving league (as we know) and for the likes of Leeds, Southampton, Bournemouth and Everton (with Lampard) to appoint unproven/unknown managers is foolish at best and down right arrogant at worst.

    No coincidence that these 4 clubs are having poor seasons

    WBA manager being strongly linked, would be good if he went because he's got them flying.

    Yep. But, if he went there, a bad mistake IMO. There's a long road and a short one, and Leeds right now looks like one to avoid.

    Not sure I agree here. West Brom are in financial disarray, Leeds spent a fair wedge in January and have a £400million takeover coming in the Summer. Even if they get relegated I think Leeds is the better job

    Quite possible he'd pass WBA on the way down. Would be a bonkers move

    Under the right boss Leeds are absolutely capable of staying up. I do think there are just enough teams worst than them this year.

    I am normally one to back coaches but I have thought he has struggled since day one. Not convinced he has the ability needed to rebuild after Bielsa. Next manager has a hell of a job on in my opinion, has the look of a bunch of players signed for Marsch, and not convinced they are up to the task personally. They are in my bottom 3 as it stands.

    Hopefully they get a manager he doesn’t like and wants to stay with us.

    Really? £400m for Leeds?
    Wonder if they bought back the training ground yet?
    Could be right about West Brom mind if they are in a financial pickle. Looks like they need to go up if so.

    The Leeds owner has some deal with the 49ers NFL team owners where they gradually increase their stake in the club up to 2024 and its worth £400mill apparently. I wonder how much we could go for if we were a PL club

    You expect to hear him say after the ko there should have been a pk and the offence weren’t in the correct quarter to protect the defence against the threat of the ck which went outside of the pka by which time we were all in our pj’s

    Simple fact is,there wasn't enough goal shots during the 2 periods to get enough scores.

    We're going to end up like Serie A did in the 90s. Musical Manager's chairs every single season at every club. Maybe two seasons if you win the league.
