    All this wanting 5 subs from Klopp is total rubbish, maybe he saw the light when we ran them ragged at Anfield, 5 subs will go against us in a big way as we are super fit and run teams into the ground, plus there are a lot of prim a donnas in the PL are not prepared to train to that extent.

    Lets go back to the Revie era, one sub was allowed only, they played in Europe every Wednesday, always put a full strength side out for the FA cup what's the problem then, well in my eyes the todays Professional footballer is put on a pedestal, wrapped in cotton wool and paid far too much. I want to see us play at full strength every game, especially the FA cup.........why not, we have less games to play in the PL, go to Crawley and humiliate them by 5 or 6 goals.

    Then there is the game in general, the main problem lies with that shower at Lancaster Gate!!!! they have lost control, VAR is a joke, referees think they are invincible and not to answer to anyone, the TV pundits now dictate play (teams playing at unsociable times and quick turnarounds), agents and the fees plus the International breaks all add up to clubs being put under unnecessary pressures.

    I think Bamford was unhappy with something else that had happened on the pitch. Whether he wasn't happy about the offside for goal or he had been fouled with it going unpunished. Certainly don't think it was at the substitution no matter what the commentators wanted us to think.

    Klopp arguing for 5 subs is laughable. In the recent City/Liverpool match Pep used 2 subs and Klopp used 1.
    In Liverpools game against Leicester he used all three subs between 89 & 94 minutes. Why ask for more subs when more often than not he doesn't use what is available to him?

    Mentioned him in the recent Weekend Debate Shaks, but yes hes gone for good although officially on loan. He is at Luton again and they are looking after him so come the Summer he will be off the books but officially

    Unconcerned about Ayling (big fan) & was prepared to give Bamford & Cooper a chance to show their colours at the highest grade, so pleased for Paddy

    Alioski has surprised me as he struggled to hold down a place in our championship XI, Ali has definitely improved under the masters coaching, in his best form at Leeds imo!

    Forshaw has played 157 games in the last 8 seasons scoring 5 goals (all at championship level), he hasn't scored a single goal for Leeds in 49 appearances. Adam is now 29yo with a crock load of injuries on his CV, surely his days are numbered at ER. I'd be absolutely flabbergasted if another PL club came in for him if we decide move Adam on. The £4.5m we spent on him has turned out to be terrible value, he must have cost us a fortune....for what?

    I love loyalty in football especially when its from a racist twat who has no problems shagging his team mates wife. John Terry the son of a drug taking gypsy mother who shat on his England team mates and manager in a world cup, is now wanting the Derby County job even though hes useless as a coach and Dean Smith is tolerating him at Villa. So he already has a job and his mate Rooney has the Derby job at present. This git has no scruples

    I believe we will improve our squad with more quality in the next few transfer windows.

    We didn't cease building our squad with the signings of Koch, Llorente, Raphinha & Rodrigo

    Nobody would pay a fee for him, he’d have to be free

    Question for everyone who feels Forshaw would be a starter, in place of who? We’ll not see him start another game for us you see.

    The midfield (IF Forshaw fully recovers) would be Phillip's, Klich and Forshaw. Obviously dependant on where Rodrigo fits in but he can't seem to force his way in at the moment and Dallas is preferred.

    Forshaw would go straight in front of Roberts, Dallas, Shackleton as central midfield players. Rodrigo is brilliant but Bielsa can't seem to put him in there. I believe he would currently be playing the Dallas role with Dallas back to full back.

    Hopefully Forshaw can return to some kind of form and it would be like a new signing.

    Where will Berardi fit in when we get him back fit? Is it just for sentiment or do the club see him as a squad player moving forward?

    Dallas getting in as CM ahead of Rodrigo (as a 10) is a complete mystery to me.

    Young Alfie starts for Oldham, Robbie Gotts starts for Lincoln City, Bryce Hosannah starts for Bradford City and Jordan Stevens is on the bench for Swindon

    I never know whether we loan players out so they gain first team experience or considered not good enough? Haven’t those that made the team stayed? Can’t think of a young loanee come back and play recently?

    The ONLY thing I can think of is that Dallas seems more disciplined in Bielsaball. He works harder than Rodrigo. Rodrigo is just quality though.

    Not really loaned out many kids recently under Bielsa. Yes we loaned out players who Bielsa didnt want and they wont be back in fact only a couple of them left now. But all 6 kids loaned out for the first time this Summer are all kids he has put on the bench or given minutes to are kids he wants to see improve.

    Think they all know that this is last chance saloon if we stay up because they know we will be improving the squad again in the Summer, so every one of these kids needs to vastly improve to come back. They will also be aware that if we get relegated they stand more of a chance of coming back as we will lose a lot of first teamers. So the upshot is that they all know they need to be better coming back and more experienced
