Watch The Damned United if you can find somewhere to stream it. It’s a great film (which, I’m sure I’ve read, is full of exaggeration), but it gives you some of the picture at least! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't believe I've never heard of it, with so many great actors, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been in there but I've peered through it's gates just before demolition when I stayed in a bed and breakfast literally over the road from it. Was one of the few remaining proper old style ramshackle grounds available for filming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 I actually want to see competitive promoted teams next year so would rather Leeds come up. Southampton will be like Burnley with how they play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farke wouldnt even last till xmas if they came up I think an attacking trio of Summerville-Rutter-Gnonto would cause plenty of issues for teams on the counter attack. Also like Ampadu as DM and Archie Gray is a big talent. What Leeds need to do is sign some solid defenders this time. Also can't be relying on Bamford either but he hasn't been a regular at championship level. Farke's remit was just to get them promoted so I'm not even sure he'd start the season given how they choked automatic promotion. They'd be more ruthless with managers than the year they went down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The, 3 will struggle to hit double figures between them in the top flight. NOwhere near good enough for the top level especially Rutter and the god Gnonto Southampton have big money players returning from loan as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piroe might do o.k as the backup. Who do Southampton have good out on loan? Tbf Leeds have guys like Robin Koch out on loan who's just made the German euros squad but I presume he'll be sold.

Alcaraz will be returning as no way Juventus paying the transfer fee. Few defenders scattered around Europe like Caleta Car and Bella Ketchop they can probably sell or could do a decent job over Bednarek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd be more ruthless with managers than the year they went down. Sacking him (and buying much better defenders) would be their only real chance of survival.
