I don’t mind Aaronson, he’s had some good games this season, but a proper number 10 would transform this side. They need to try something in January, not just sit still like we normally do, try and get another attacker in.

I don’t think he will do it but I could see either Ramazani or Gnonto being good there at this level, better than Aaronson at least.

Atmosphere very flat at Elland Road this season

I know you are not a big Gruev fan, Jonty, but he had a very different role to Rothwell. He was playing behind Rutter, and he was the midfield dynamo last season. He was beginning to look more progressive this season prior to his injury, but Rothwell now owns this position. I hope we see Gruev back before the end of the season. I think he still has a lot to offer at this level.

Everyone thinks I really rate Aaronsson, I dont particularly. I just see what he does brings to the team, and he is a decent player.

If we could get a true number 10 in the Jan, I would go for it, but a) they aint many about b) who is going to let you have one 🤷🏻‍♂️

Not so easy.

I wouldnt have Razz anywhere near number 10, was absolutely awful against blackburn. Willy I do get, got the brains to do it.

Gruev, like Jonty, never been a fan, just not my type of player, too slow in movement and passing.

Atmosphere has been poor, and two reasons, I think is everyone thinks we will deffo go up and its pretty boring.

Thats not a slight on Farke, its just so easy, there no virtually no jeopardy.

I run my own club, but today was woeful, a rare treat to stay home, get the log fire going and then stand in rain and watch my daughter play Hockey in the afternoon...I so rarely get to see her play!

Yeah agreed. Actually a compliment to Farke really, he’s made winning so easy at home.

Opposition turning up with no intention to attack doesn’t help either

Aaronson is decent player definitely.

Could see him being a real asset from bench too. Number 10 could be loan from prem or out of nowhere like Tanaka was. Ramanazi has the skill set I think, everyone was poor against Blackburn second half.

Morning all🌞.

Fantastic result which is really everything for me at the moment. Great to get a response to the loss at Blackburn. Also, absolutely delighted for Joe Rodon (had to happen sometime😁) and Max Wober; I hope Max feels closer to the club now👍.

Absolutely not, its like a football fan if they love rugby!

There is no way Firpo starts the next game so it was good for Wober to get a goal and some decent minutes.

I hope Farke gives him a chance next game, any player willing to work deserves a second chance in his situation and he was always going to get his chance cause that is just how injuries work in a busy championship season.

Good result today for us with West broms draw. Quite a table forming.

Playing Wober v Boro would be madness. Doak is absolute handful, he's on loan from Liverpool. Would run Wober ragged imo. Even Firpo will have his work cut out

Completely disagree, wober is a far better defender than Firpo.


Exactly the type of defender, who could put Doak off, a moody little arrogant b@stard, who doesnt like it up him.

While he certainly is very talented, as with all Liverpool youngsters, he’s over hyped.

Yes he could rip Wober to bits, but he aint going to have much of the ball, and we need to push him back

Wober could be a good asset rest of the season if he keeps his place. He’s played leftback a lot in his career, better defender than Firpo and adds some more height for set pieces

I was thinking about Firpo when Wober came on, is Firpo actually better going forward? Because Wober did everything that Firpo normally does, we didn’t miss him when he went off

Wober played 25 games for Frankfurt last season, who are currently lying second in the Bundesliga. If I remember correctly the only reason he's still here was the disagreement in valuation between the clubs. I also remember, apart from an unfortunate own goal, he had a reasonable World cup.

All teams in the EFL have to be respected, but I do wonder somewhat when I feel that I'm reading about CL players and teams, not teams and players plying their trade in the English second tier.

... to put it in context, I feel on aggregate, we have the best squad and loads of options off the bench.
