Good Morning Everyone Leeds Utd have managed to upset One Direction star Niall Horan! Niall, a big Derby County fan received a tweet from a Leeds fan asking the singer to send Leeds some good luck! Unfortunately, the teenage heart throb (not my words) replied that 'No one likes Leeds'. This was followed by a tweet from the official LUFC account dissing Niall's solo career! This led to a mini war! Horan, Derby fans and millions of teeny boppers V Leeds fans - There was blood everywhere (but not Leeds)! Leeds jouro Phil Hay has echoed what many Leeds fans are saying! Speaking on his official twitter account, Hay responded to a Leeds fan regarding Saiz being dropped in favour of Forshaw! "Forshaw looked very good in an advanced role last night. Conflicted with Saiz. It does feel like he could do with a bit of downtime". If a 30m offer came in for Kelvin Phillips, would you accept it?
Morning all The Houran tweet was funny as hell and worked a treat, Siaz has had back to back poor games and agree he deserves benching especially when Forshaw stood out the other night and that happened because he was desperate to get a chance. Maybe Saiz needs to feel under pressure about his place to bring out the best of him. Nobody will offer £30m for KP and if they do snap gheir hands off and invest it in a top player to fill the role. KP has been the player of the year so far but he aint Kante
Morning all.....I agree with you doc, particularly the bit about saiz, I've been wondering if he's become a bit complacent, thinking he cant/won't be dropped. Hopefully, Forshaw's performance will have given him & Bielsa something to think about. If we received a £30mm bid for Philips, I would snatch their hands off.
Morning all... In regards to Phillips it would depend when the offer came in, from who, and where we were in the league. If it were a top PL club when we were guaranteed promotion it would be a no. Saiz, I think he might start, I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure Bielsa likes to give a warning first by an early substitution and if it happens again they’re dropped. If Pearce starts and Alioski is wide left I’m going for Saiz will be dropped. If Alioski starts at LB and Harrison wide I’m going for Saiz to start
Morning all, Pretty sure Bielsa wouldn't want Phillips leaving at any price, so if he was sold it would be without Bielsa's approval We'd risk losing Bielsa and all his staff which is a risk not worth taking £30m would not cover the damage caused
On Sais, once Pablo was injured he became the man opposition had to snuff out. It’s noticeable he now never gets much space. He did make the pass (under close pressure) out to Pablo to set up the all important first goal though. Also think in this game it may have worked dropping KP into Franz Beckanbauer role in back line but it meant our midfield had less help from him. I get the idea - gave the wing backs chance to go forward (not that they were particularly effective) but it put a bit more pressure on Sais and Klich. Obviously Sais cost us c3m not 30m so he’s not perfect. But I’d like to see him play in the more usual formation with Pablo on right and Alioski on left (no Harrison, no Dallas thanks, think I’d risk starting Pearce at LB if need be). No problem trying Forshaw btw but I think Sais at his best has more guile. Would like to see if Roofe and Pablo back helps Sais come back to life - I can tell you sitting in the home crowd st away games, he’s the player they fear the most
Yeh it’s a tricky one. I like Saiz and I like foreshaw. We were thinking he was more a Replacement for klich than Saiz, but he played in more advanced positions earlier in his career with some success. Adam has really good close control and offers more bite than Saiz obviously but he won’t offer the running at defences that terrifies them. Saiz draws defenders to him and narrows the defensive line giving space to others, especially the wide guys... he just doesn’t always hit them with the pass! It might be a horses for courses thing... but it would be interesting to see foreshaw start and then have Saiz with fresh legs running at tired defenders late on.
Forza you talk a lot of sense on here mate but going to disagree with on KP. Bielsa has had some of the greatest players in the world under him and to say KP wouldnt be let go...... Maschereno or KP for example, you would say Massa everytime surely
No one is for sale we need everyone who has put us top of the crop and further reinvestment for the final push for the prem. No more steps backwards let's go for it! Morning all
Good morning Matt & all No club are gonna bid £30m for Phillips so it's all irrelevant I'd be more concerned if someone can in with a £10m to £15m bid for Kalvin As I keep insisting KP is gonna play at the highest level, I just hope it's with his boyhood club Leeds United
Saiz has been poor of late, I don't care what other folk are seeing on here. Things are not coming off for him apart from the odd moment in a game, we need more than just one influential pass from our creative players over 90 minutes. The Ipswich game changed dramatically once Saiz was subbed, we looked more fluent & created more opportunities in their box, in fact we battered the Tractor boys in the last 30 minutes. Forshaw for Saiz v Forest
Time for Saiz to be the impact from the bench with 30 to go. Phillips won't fetch 30m but could see a 12-15 m bid coming in, then we would know how serious Radz is about getting us up, personally i think he'd take it but hope I'm wrong.
Its a few years since we had a squad that gives us decent choices with injured players still to come in.
Good Morning to Matt and co from a sunnyBardsey Hope you can give me a stream for tonights game and Sat Matt Looks like Bamford is out till next season so we need a replacement Any videos on Gomez please another one we are after Phillips is no Madison and he only fetched 22m along with Grealish who was offered at 20m so 10m tops for me Forshaw was tipped to play for England not so long ago
