The Breakfast Debate

[ellandback]

Good Morning Everyone,

Whilst I'm sure we all (well some of us) admire that Cellino has done well in cutting back our losses, I feel he has gone a little far by not paying his water bill at Thorp Arch and having the water switched off.

Let's just hope he forgot to pay it!




After the 4-0 drubbing at the hands of Brighton, Cellino has told Sky Sports that he feels embarrassed for the Leeds fans!

“We have five players out and I didn't speak with him after the game because we were both very disappointed and very embarrassed about what happened, but it is not just because of the coach,”

"I am very embarrassed for the supporters because they really are better than this team. That is the only thing I can say.”




Derby County are the most-watched Championship team live on Sky.

Sky Sports subscribers watched the Rams more than any other Championship club in 82 of 119 regions across the United Kingdom.

Ipswich were the UK's second-favourite team to watch, proving most popular in 10 regions, while Leeds and promotion-chasing Middlesbrough were joint third with eight strongholds each.

Morning all, Bellusci, Dallas, Wood who were the other two out?

There isn't a team who doesn't have to cope with missing players, that's what you get when you lack strength in depth.

Bridcutt, Diagouraga and Carayol were brought in by Evans, it should be a stronger squad than the one Rosler left.

Morning ristac,

Berardi isn't fit yet

Think Adeyami had a knock

 

[ristac]

If Berardi is on the bench he should be fit enough to play or what is the point?

Adeyemi has been out of favour for weeks, he hasn't a chance of getting in ahead of Bridcutt and Diagouraga and Cook so realistically we have one striker, one midfielder and one defender out.

Hardly an excuse for that performance.

So Chesh was lying when he said you had twice as many viewers as ANY other Championship team?

One win in eleven is the be all and end all

Perhaps we should send him back to Cardiff?

Morning Bucks

 

[ristac]

Evans had started to get me onside, a couple of good performances, Wootton at the time improving at RB and Doukara looking like a new player and Diagouraga slotting straight in and looking class.

Obvious now that Wootton and Doukara have no place in the Championship, Cook is too hot and cold, he shouldn't start every game, It took Evans too long to realise Antenucci shouldn't even be on the bench and for the first time this season I actually agree with Cellino...

Evans should stop talking and moaning and blaming everyone else, he should stop mentioning next season because at the moment relegation looks a bigger prospect than 10th spot.

 

[ellandback]

Old Sea Dog, where have you been?

 

[FORZA LEEDS]

Morning all,

How difficult can it be to get the structure right? For Cellino to step back, and instead of spending a few million on dross like Doukara, Wood, Bamba etc, and instead use that money on a decent head coach and an extensive scouting network?

None of the coaches since Cellino took over have been anywhere near good enough. Every one of them have got the team playing boring, negative football. None of them addressed the glaringly obvious faults such as the lack of leaders in the side, the shortage of goals, the dire set pieces.

It's not rocket science ffs

Morning Essex, hope you're well pal.

It's depressing that we don't have a scouting network.

I heard on talksport that when Evans came to the club, he had to ask to borrow stats reports from Leicester City on Leeds players, as they didn't have any...

galatasaray 'given Europe ban for breaching financial fair play rules'

You must log in or register to see images

galatasaray have been suspended from European competition for one year for breaching financial fair play rules, according to Turkish news reports.

European football's governing body Uefa said in January that the Turkish champions had broken regulations on the level of financial losses allowed, paving the way for a potential ban.

More to follow.

Compensation packages for those he has sacked so far would have paid for a good few coaches and scouts

We will absolutely never progress until we have structure. How a club like Leeds doesn't have player stats and a decent scouting/coaching set up is ****ing abysmal.

The lack of talent on the pitch is obvious as well but good structure behind the scenes can really benefit the players.

Ah but, apparently a top quality selection of post match Charlie available to visiting clubs and a President that can play Eric Clapton at the end of Season do so not all bad and you can't have everything. As Chippy says, Always look on the bright side of life!
