James
Cooper

Sure Firpo said pre-weds that Firpo, Byram and James would be back after the international break.

Dallas way off still. Not sure about Bamford dont recall him mentioning him

Why doesn’t Dallas just retire and put us all out of our misery!

I doubt we'll ever see him back as he was. Broken femur is a horrendous injury and if he ever plays again he'll think twice about making his signature tackles

Think Stu should go ahead and start getting his coaching badges. A player with his football IQ is
tailor-made for managing in the game for years.

Dallas is finished.

He is 32 and not played for a year and a half.

This isnt Sunday League level, where he can take it easy or there isint much to play for.

This is one of the hardest most competative leagues in the world and muscles, joints and ligaments that were not injured when he broke his leg have been doing very little for a year now and when they are made to work hard they are going to strain, tear or break when they are put under strain and pressure after such a long time off.

If he recovers to be able to play again he will be crippled by injuroes that will keep him out for a couple of weeks or a month or two.

I know Dallas was the architect of his own demise when he attempted that (uncharacteristically) nasty tackle on Grealish, but along with Ayling and Coops, he's a Leeds legend. Considering the sh!tload of money we're haemorrhaging weekly on garbage players, I think that finding a backroom place for these three would be a good investment for the club.

I think we have to see if he can add any value at this level. You'd hope he can at very least be a backup LB, but at least we have to see him.
