Good Morning Everyone, 6000 Leeds fans travelled down to the Stadium MK on Saturday to witness the great escape, albeit a poor Leeds team somehow beat the Milton Keynes Dons. Having gone two - nil up at half time thanks to some inspiration from Charlie Taylor, you'd think Leeds would be home and dry, wouldn't you? What do you mean No? Arrgghhhh, you've seen it happen before!!! Well, it almost happened again. Only a penalty (which was), a MKD sending off, some last ditch defending and more than a bit of luck saw Leeds bag only their second win of the season. Why are Leeds doing better away from home, than at Elland Road? Why has Mowatt and Byram gone off the boil? Are we stronger than last season? Why do we think Wootton started? Doukara was not even on the bench, are his days numbered? Will Erwin ever get any game time?
Morning Elland, there could be a common denominator, hope it isnt, but if this is not going to work, then sooner rather than later, his initials are UR
Morning all. As a child of the sixties I just enjoy a win when it comes. I don't go in for over analysing defeats so certainly won't attemp it when we win. I will ask though, are some Leeds fans ever happy.
Morning Eire, I think a lot of Leeds fans will be thinking that only a 3 goal cushion will do. I do understand what you are saying though.
Well maybe your right Elland, BUT Rosler has had the pre season and eight games in the league to weigh the players up in the squad, but still has not got the back four balanced and settled, only Taylor has earned his place week in week out, maybe Cooper can settle and hold a position at CB, Bamber has been hot and cold as of late and it is evident that he is a yard off the pace, but RB is a position that needs to be plugged fast, as teams are exploiting that channel every week now.
Morning all - I do believe Cellino has done everything right this season, however, just food for thought, do the coaches pick teams with Cellino in mind? I am not questioning if Cellino picks the team, I don't believe he is this time around but is Rosler fearful of the backlash should he say play 4-4-2 and we get stuffed. Both Redfearn and Rosler seem more concerned about not losing than going out and winning or have we previously been spoilt with Grayson.
He hasn't sold up and ****ed off back to Italy/Miami, his most recent manager is proving to be another flop, we still pick cellinos favourites week in week out, the back room stability has been blown apart, we are creating very few chances getting outplayed every week, crowds are already declining..... What would failure look like to you?
Morning ristac, seems our biggest problem is going forward, and the team are too scared to show any flair
You mean our biggest problem apart from our midfield not tracking back, closing down, getting a tackle in and generally supporting the defence. Our best formation at the minute would be 5-0-5!
Armchair supporters probably are, those paying to travel and watch us being over run nearly every match probably not.
Good morning Matt from a very wet Bardsey I have already expressed my thoughts on the game which was very exciting to say the least Silvestri showed why he is a great shot stopper make no mistake he was really good as was Taylor We seemed to start panicking about the hour mark with young Hall on loan from Bolton tearing our defence to shreds what a prospect he looked Playing Wootton was a disaster I Was hoping he would get sent off! or be subbed but 3 points is 3 points so my day was complete
Cellino This Season - Appointed some good backroom people, invested in the team, not sold a single player who matters. I am still not 100% sure why Pearson left, he seems to have gone amicably and the rest of the backroom people are all in place as far as I am aware. No reports of unrest so I have no alternative but to go by the official statement given by Pearson and the club. At the end of last season we were a mess, a high turnover of coaches, a team full of cheap foreign imports and loan players not to mention a transfer embargo. We had no backroom people and rumours were flying around left right and centre about takeovers. Rosler was the best appointment we could have expected at the time, when it is time to replace him maybe we will attract someone better if Cellino continues to stay out the limelight. I agree we are not playing well, I have no idea why, I do question the logic in some of Roslers decisions but I don't believe now is the time to replace him.
