Should happen, but won't cos this is Leeds the biggest shambles of a football club ever

This is only going one way at the moment. Team is a shambles, tactics are terrible, just like the back end of last season, barring the Norwich play off game. I think he needs to go sooner rather than later.

After Saturday and tonight, he has to go. This is abject, makes JM look good value..

Think it’s premature to be talking of sacking the manager after a solid season last year.
This match tonight has shown that we are effing clueless as a team however.
Worst I’ve seen us play since the Marsch days.
Desperately needs a real clever play-maker like Pablo was.

Dont think we will. Next two games absolutely vital

Rationally speaking you would think so but this isn't the first time we've all witnessed an abject performance like tonight and I think if we lose on Saturday the owners will make a change but I'm not exactly confident they will replace him with anyone better.

Too early. I think he has two games to turn it around and if not then he’s in trouble.

Players tonight were just not good enough.

Shows the squad depth is poor when we make so many changes and those coming in, apart from maybe Rothwell, were poor.

Cant really blame the keeper I guess. He was hung out to dry.

I wouldn't be surprised if our image conscious owners replace Farke with a certain past nemesis of ours and we become Frank Lampard's Leeds United.

My wicked side would love this just for the fallout on here and comedy value..... Carry on Leeds United😂

Potter is still around. Just bought a place in York.

At this very moment in our heart of hearts I doubt any Leeds fan believes we will finish in the top 2 at the end of the season but football is funny thing and in about 64 hours our promotion expectations may have been resurrected and all is well with the world.

We will get Southgate guaranteed

Lose our next 2 away league games, then I think Farke will be gone.

35 thousand there too for a cup nobody is really that bothered about.

These fans deserve so much better than this.

I'm starting to believe in Batty's theory that the owners wanted to see how we did in the first 3 games before releasing the purse strings for Farke's preferred targets and if as now looks likely we have a poor start they will sack him and get a new manager in time to get his own preferred new signings and that is why I think Farke only has one more game because if they wait another week the window will be virtually shut and there won't be much time for a new boss to stamp his own style with 3 or 4 of own new players brought in.

I can't recollect any occasions Farke has taken ownership for a defeat. Bielsa used to blame himself and until right at the end of his tenure we'd generally bounce back. Makes me wonder what he thinks happened at the of last season and how Russell Martin schooled him 3 for 3 tactically.

Yeah get him out before weekend

You’re assuming that any new manager can suddenly find the players he wants inside two weeks. Will they even be available?

I agree.

He's been found out. And WTF was he doing making
5 subs when his keeper was on the ground getting
treatment? What an idiot.

Next four games are:
West Brom
Sheff Wed
Hull
Burnley

Farke will be lucky to get one point from that.

Sack him. And get someone in with tactical smarts.

Yes I am otherwise we're completely screwed.
Something needs to change and at this moment I can't see us getting a result on Saturday or the following match but I suppose like Jesse Marsch pulled a rabbit out of the hat at Anfield there's a slim chance Farke can turn things around but I wouldn't put any money on it.

The thing that never seems to change (no matter which players are on field) is that we aren’t fast or incisive enough to get opponents on the back foot. We just pummel at their defences with no progress or get the occasional half-chance.

The other direction, teams seem to cut through us like butter.
I think getting rid of Kamara is biting us in the butt. He wasn’t a world-beater and looked ungainly, but broke play up more than Aaronsson or Gruev.

Honestly just want to fast-forward to the end of the season if we are going to get this tripe week-in week-out!

Always said I thought Kamara was the more progressive in midfield, I really think Gruev is lightweight at best.

Always liked Kamara. Watched him for Rangers.
Saying that, he made a really good move this summer.

1 win in 10 competitive games now or something. If were not careful, we'll be 6-10 points adrift going into the international break as we have WBA, Sheff Wed, Hull and Burnley next.

If Burnley play like they did against Luton and we repeat tonight's performance I shudder to think what the score will be but I think there's a strong possibility we will have a new manager before then unless we get Summerville, Kamara and Gray doppelgangers in before Saturday.

Still can't get over Farke bringing on 5 - fcking 5 -
subs in the 63rd minute while his keeper was injured
and laying on the deck. 5 subs, needing 2 goals and
he leaves Joseph on the bench and Bamford on the
fcking pitch. Should be sacked for this mental minute alone.
