Some midfielders who can score might be a help
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yeah Klich got close to 10, Pabs got double figures for goals and assists.

Farke was tactically outdone by Martin today. Leeds approached the game as they always do with no plan B. Saints nullified them and barely had to work up a sweat in the process .Farke seems very one dimensional

^^^

100% true.

However, guess which 3 clubs will be relegated next
season from the Prem...
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Southampton
Ipswich
Forest

Think Leicester will outrun Forest and Man U will have enough I feel

We're just not a good team,we rely on individual's having good games up front, the midfield doesn't create or score and the defence is wide open plus a keeper who is a liability. Not a surprise how it ended up, very predictable

Graham Potter is a shout if we do look for another manager.

^^^

He's the bloke I want.

I think he could mould this club and make it tick.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I agree. But he wouldn't come to you. Why would he?

Would love to agree but the incoming 6 point deduction for Leicester plus having no money to spend tells me otherwise.

Some irony with Smallbone scoring today. The sort of midfielder we don't have as we can and were today one dimensional.

I'll believe to my last breathe that we didn't do enough in the January transfer window. More on that later.

Would have Potter but lets be realistic he will want a premier league job.

Steve Cooper. Nah.

Bielsa not gonna leave Uruguay.

Maybe we could attract Skubala.

Very much doubt it. But, how much gardening can
a football manager do? Sell the project, who knows?

I mean fck, we got Bielsa.

Mattyp my point is to all those who want farke out.

With parachute payments and the remnants of a Prem squad + Prem loanees. He's tactically inept.

Farke = Rinse Repeat.

If we keep him. Fine.
I'm not expecting Prem football will follow
next season though.

I know.

I just think it's silly to think the board are going to sack a manager who got us 90 points.

I also think for the most part, his signings have been good.

Like I said, today hurts, but I just think there is an overreaction to it, which when you consider what's on the line is understandable

In reality this 100% makes sense.

But, if the board/49ers are going to keep him,
then back him all the way. Rework this squad
exactly the way he wants. If that happens,
great. I'll back him.

If he pulls a Bielsa and says "no I'll take your
square pegs and wage gougers" then we are
fcked again. Because it means he doesn't
know what he wants or needs.

This squad aint good enough.

LIW think's it's the best squad in the division

LIW thinks this is the greatest squad ever built.

He'll be Farke out x 100.

Only way he gets close to saving face after spouting
sh 1 te on here all season.

We'll get top 2 with Farke next season. Can't see us changing direction and not sure its needed. 90 pts is pretty much always enough. We'll probably get top 2 next season with 80 odd

posted on 26/5/24

Took Bielsa two seasons.

We need to sign some bargains. Klich, Ayling type signings. Good team players who'll give it their all

posted on 26/5/24

I can only think of 4 or 5 players I’d keep from this team of underachieving losers.

Despite the cruel disappointment yet again I actually thoroughly enjoyed my day and on reflection my previous excessive optimism about it being our turn etc was wishful thinking because the reality was Martin outsmarted Farke again although only just tbf I thought the lads gave it their all it wasn't for the lack of effort but
possession is pointless if you don't work the opposition GK which sadly Leeds didn't do and yes we were extremely unlucky hitting the bar but apart from that I only remember the Southampton keeper making 1 noteworthy save and felt that opening chance which
Gnonto scuffed was a massive chance missed to take
the lead which you feel Armstrong would have buried
and not long after he did find the target.


It was Southampton's day and Farke again made some strange subs imo but driving back to my hotel and hearing a Leeds fans want Farke sacked I thought was harsh but I think he has to rethink the striker position because that is what gets teams promoted and was our archilles heal this season.

Big summer of change for Leeds I feel but not meaning to rain on the 3 clubs that have got promoted but all 3 will need heavy investment just to have a chance of surviving as we would have done too but another season in the Championship and there's no guarantees but Leeds will be strong favourites to finish top with whatever players Farke has to mould into hopefully a title winning team.

I'm gutted for the players who many at the end collapsed in tears and that made me more emotional too but the 49ers will have to pick the bones out of all this and put their hands in their pockets and pass the begging bowl around to their numerous celeb investors and give our magnificent support, which was a joy to behold to be part of and savour, a team worthy of them and deserving back in the Premier League at the end of next season.

Sorry I couldn't post much but my phone battery went down quite quick and I wasn't prepared to pay £10 for Wembley Stadium to charge it up for me.

I also have to give praise to the Wembley Stadium staff who looked after me and provided me in the end with wheelchair assistance as I just had my crutches with me and they wheeled me from the car park to my seat and did the same at the end.

Oh well that's 4 play off final defeats and today definitely stung but we're used to it and our day will come and on that bombshell I shall call it a night and go and order some fish and chips I think to compensate a tiny bit for another one of Leeds glorious defeats.MOT

"This squad aint good enough."

What a load of crap!..

People seem to forget, if Farke had had this squad to start with instead of the not knowing who's left to start, he would have got auto's!..

And crawling up Lowfields back end, he wouldn't be here if this squad had won!..

The same crap from the same people, but the "I told you so" crew are going to make themselves heard, because we all know they were right from the start!..
