I'd get rid too. misses too many games.
just back from city. another cup bought for. very impressive team but they probably spend more on the under 18s than many championship sides spend on the first team. bought one of our under 15s not long back for a few million quid. cherry pick all the best talent

How did Cresswell and Crew perform last night?
It`s a shame teams like City are allowed to spend that amount of money.
Maybe at that level it should be salary capped to make it an even playing field for all teams concerned.

Yea, Finlay Gorman. He's a generational talent. They definitely need to look at amending the rules. City's academy is ridiculous.

they were all beasts!!! 6' plus. leeds were boys. city were supurb. like watching there first team

crew looked OK. physically miles off city players though

If Leeds don’t go up this season it’s very difficult to see them going up again in the foreseeable future.

There are alot of players on the books who we will lose money on, if we can get any money at all. Wober, Koch, Llorente, Aaronson.

The sale of a few of our crown jewels should we fail in the playoffs will significantly weaken the squad without the requisite reinvestment due to above said nooses.

Leeds will then be competing against teams fresh from the PL with full parachute payments. After season 1, every season you don’t go up makes it progressively harder. It took a miracle from Bielsa before.

It’s now, or they are stuck.

sorry but rubbish.

koch is o.o.c. lose nothing. only aaronson could be a big loss. summerville and rutter will bring in big bucks.gray at £40-£50m pure profit too. Still get parachute payments next season albeit reduced. if we don't go up next year THEN it's looking like a longer stay.
don't forget owners can put in 'loans' which doesn't count on ffp. the 49rs are mega rich but the plan is get leeds up, stabilise, then sell to someone as rich as city's owners for big profit. that's how they work

looks like a 4-3-3.

I suggested gray as an extra midfielder. glad farke listened to me.

Anything can happen today from 2 nil Leeds to 1 nil Norwich to 1 a piece f knows.
I`m getting pre match nerves just thinking about it.

another blatant penalty not given.
another apology incoming.

is that 11?

ridiculous

by far the better team.second half. disciplined display. I think if we'd really gone for it we'd have won.
classic away first leg performance

Yes much the better team today and a nice clean sheet to build back confidence. Thought Firpo disallowed goal was unlucky too, looked level to me.

Will take that performance and result today. Much better

Wasn`t sure it was a penalty maybe inches outside the area.
Looked offside for the goal at first glance but would like to see it with the lines drawn.
Meslier is really worrying me especially with his clearances which have never been good.
He unsettles the defence who do not have any confidence in him.
Rutter again poor and not sure what operation he had but he`s lost it.
We really need to shoot first time instead of playing the glamor ball every time.
Other than that pretty solid and didn`t look like conceding.
Summerville looks to be found out and has been nullified the last 3 or 4 games.
Score first on Thursday and we should be in the final.
The other 2 teams didn`t look great either.

Wasnt a great start and got exposed a couple of times but once we started to calm down and built some possession we came into the game.

I thought Firpos goal was offside at first but looking back it looks very close.

Main thing was that we didnt concede so you would think we are favourites going into the second leg.

Meslier always seems to buckle when pressure is on. Hope he gets it back together again. I think we forget he's still young at times but he definitely needs to improve.
