The state of Wiedwald and Jansson is bewildering. Hopefully it doesn’t matter but lots of injuries worry me. please log in to view this image Stephen Barry @StephenBarry20 Some positives to take....Wiedwald proves himself to be a liability twice so hopefully will get binned off in January. Fresh for Friday etc please log in to view this image Phil Hay @PhilHayYEP Christiansen pleased with the performance, especially first half, and admitted that Leicester's quality told. #lufc please log in to view this image Carpediem55 @marktenjag True enough - no argument. But Wiedwald needs a P45 and we need a decent replacement. Apparently not.... Bristol City's Matty Taylor's nose is NOT broken..... I'M SHOCKED Taylor clarified the situation after the game, and told Bristol City's official club website (The daily combine harvester): "The swelling has gone down. He caught me right on the nose. "I had an X-ray on it, luckily it come back clear. It's not too bad to be honest." This being the case, do Bristol City owe Berardi an apology for accusing him of GBH?
I’ve never been convinced by wiedwald. BUT, I think jansson was as much at fault for the goal, against Leicester... seemed like he couldn’t make his mind up how to deal with the ball. Now, you can say that the keeper should call for it and deal with it... but it looked like jansson had it covered. Were this the sole reason for getting on wiedwald’s back i’d say It was harsh... but of course it isn’t. I’ve said it before and i’ll Say it again... I prefer my keeper to be a safe pair of hands first and a sweeper second. We chose felix over green on seeeping ability first. Whether that’s TC or orta? Dunno.
Morning all, Taylor & BCFC are a disgrace. As as far as Keepers go I wwill go along with whichever keeper Tommy picks, we need to get behind whoever puts the shirt on as we are where we are. One thing we all know about Leeds fans is that there are many but a few will always slag off certain players. Not a good look. Anyone see the stat from the Bristol game regarding Lonegran going long 97% of the time instead of playing it out from the back. Tommy has tactics, can change things but will be worth looking at against the Blades as that long tactic could have been due to weather last weekend
If Green is the professional he makes out to be, he would not of abandoned ship like he did for the Tesco bags, he must of spotted that he has more quality to offer than the Kraut, so why did he not hang around to prove it?? not forgetting we brought him in from the wilderness last season. i am with Ristac, i dont rate either keeper we have and has i said yesterday the Keeper position has to be sorted along with LB pronto.
Its because he is a professional he jumped. Huddersfield offered to treble his wages and he made the decision that any professional would. You could also argue that perhaps he was in a position to make a judgement on where we are going and he didn't believe we were going to compete at the top of the table when it matters. If we had wanted him to stay we could have kept him to his contract/ offered him one that matched the one he accepted. I don't see how you can blame him for doing what he feels is best for him in the long term. He didn't grow up with the club and never clamed to be a Leeds fan, he owes us nothing.
Morning Chirpy, pure speculation on your behalf on his wages offer, nothing was ever stated that i can remember. Your second part states that he knew we were going nowhere, well i shall revert to you in the last quarter of the season, where and when Monk let us down badly. You say cannot blame him for doing the best for him in the long term?? how many games has he turned out for them this season. I had trials with Hudderfield when i was 13 Chirpy, never supported them but it was thrilling to be selected..............you know what i am saying. Now go back to bed, get out of the right side for once and have a nice day ffs.
Good morning everyone.OH MY GOD,can't understand the criticism were giving poor old felix,after all we talk about the rest of the players,and how their form is inconsistent,but the one thing you can say about weiderwald,he is consistent as he consistently let's in three goals,we must be the only team with a goalkeeper who has ocd (obsesive compulsary dissorder) with the no3
Green was told he wouldn’t be first choice... to a guy he knew he was better than. What would you do? He was happy at the club until they signed Wiedwald. The inconsistency was he claimed he wanted first team football... but i guess bench warming on prem wages is better than doing it in the champ
It wasn't speculation on my behalf but that of others at the time. But its a fairly safe bet that a prem club would be offering wages significantly higher than we were under Cellinos business model. My second comment stated no such thing. It said "you could argue".. and only a complete imbecile would read that as you appear to have. I appeared to have answered my own point there. No idea what you are saying regarding your trial and how it relates to a professional footballer doing what any professional person would do unless they had an atttachement to their employer..
I suggest you pick your comments within your replies with more diplomacy Chirpy just a friendly word of warning.
Green is also 37 so at the time it made sense for us to look to build for the future and sign a goalkeeper to get us out of this division and beyond. I imagine we would have been very happy to keep Green but can understand why he left and why we let him.
