Great game, that new lad Roy looks more like a rugby player, I'd swear he is related to Courtney Lawes. He looked a little nervous when he came on so good for him to get a debut under his belt. TC was questioned on if we need another striker and also if he expected a busy few days before the window closes and about the perfomance. He said it was a perfect display and he had promised the players two days off from training if they came away with the three points. He as good as confirmed that Green will be leaving, he did say he is a Leeds player until he signs for someone else and it seems certain we are going back in with an improved offer for Gestade.
It's true norwich are dreadful... they conceded 4 goals to 5 shots on target... only managed 70% possession and only had a few more shots and shots on target than millwall. Pretty embarrassing. There's so few teams playing hoofball in the championship theses days that some teams have forgotten how to defend against it. The wall will sneak a few points against those teams. We've got Pontus who loves a bit of hoofball, so won't be losing sleep for our visit to sunny Bermondsey
Trying to remain grounded is a bit tricky after that game. We played some excellent football and you can see that there is room for improvement. I still think we are/were a better team with Wood leading the line instead of Roofe but that's history and I wish Wood well with his new club, I think he made a wrong decision but moving on... I do feel we need someone better than Roofe and better than Hernandez, yes Roofe took his goal well but you feel Alioski and Saiz are more likely to score, they just look more classy. I'm not over impressed with the strikers we have been linked with but I don't feel in a position to complain when you look at this seasons signings and how TC has got them playing. I'm glad we have a break, the longer TC has these players on the training pitch the better you feel we are going to get.
One thing I did like on the Sky Sport stats, they show the amount of chances a team creates, Leeds carved out 17 chances.
But Alioski and Saiz have been revelations. For years we craved wingers and tried various efforts in those positions. I don’t know what Alioski and Saiz are or care. They’re stretching defenders all over the place. Both would be very at home in the Pl with us
I agree. Everybody is entitled to an opinion but I personally don't see the need to slag somebody off who has done what we would all do if offered a vast amount of cash. Football is different these days thanks to the obscene amounts of cash sloshing around in the premiership. I do wish he had as you say at least given it to the next transfer window with us particularly as he has ended up with regulation fodder Burnley. I do believe we are in a much better position now we have goalscorers through the team so looks like we have made a great deal out of it.
Both have a massive future in England,but we need go up or we will end up with a pile of money,but them gone.Would put both in the £10-£15 million category already.
I was thinking the same thing, don't go up this season and we'll lose Saiz, Alioski and Jansson for sure
Good points I know football has changed, ruined by sky IMO. But I personally don't care if supporters give ex players stick. You don't and I respect that.
