Re: 2022 - 2023 Transfer Rumours and Squad Discussions

Christian Pulisic from Chelsea is a name that's popped up a few times lately. Chelsea have said they won't lend him to "the Manchester side" (with some weird rumours of him being involved in a swap deal with Harry Maguire). It looks like they want to sell him if anything. Pulisic looks goo...

Re: Expectations 2022-2023

Final position: 12th Star performer(s): Brenden Aaronson, Tyler Adams, Marc Roca. Top scorer: Patrick Bamford Hopes/wishes: A settled side, no injury crisis, and that we play as a coherent team, to a plan once more. I would also hope to see the progression of players like Joe Gelhardt and Archie Gra...

Re: Thanks Kalvin

Disappointing but inevitable. It seems another link to the Bielsa era has been lost now. A year ago what would he have been worth I wonder, as the stand-out player of the Euro 2020 tournament. But then he hardly played for us last season, and we struggled without him. Under Marsch it seems his role ...

Re: Should we keep Marsch if relegated? (Poll)

Let me preface this by mentioning that I'm a yank and, as such, have an entirely justified footballing inferiority complex. It is not an exaggeration to say that virtually all serious football supporters in this country are closely watching the goings on of our club. We desperately want internation...

Re: Should we keep Marsch if relegated? (Poll)

This is a difficult one. If we are relegated, then the board's decision to remove Marcelo will have been shown to be an ignominious failure. The entire club, at all levels, has been specifically set-up to Marcelo's designs, and relied on having him at the centre of it all. As such, due to the specif...

Re: Bielsa sacked have the Club made the right decision

Whether the club have made the right decision for the here and now or not, this remains an incredibly sad end to what has been one of the most special eras at Leeds United. That the club has allowed this situation to arise, by not intervening in the Summer and the January transfer windows, is unforg...

Re: Marcelo Bielsa

A very sad end to a very special era at the club.
It should not have come to this.

Re: Marcelo Bielsa

Changing the manager is only of merit IF there is a strong likelihood of an improvement in the situation and / or if the manager and the players are no longer working for each other. Why are we in this situation? Is it really all down to the manager? Well, the players haven't suddenly become worse. ...
