Derby started throwing caution to the wind, ran at Leeds back 4 and they completely imploded without his leadership, I think Liam Cooper is a terrible CB when under pressure so he's one Leeds to replace aswell. Jansson holds that defence together. He was exceptional for them at the game at a and road Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Mitrovic signed a new deal with Fulham, bit of a coup for them as Cairney also signed a new deal. Fulham will be top 2 I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are we being quoted over 15m for this Webster guy? Because we’ve a lot more money. Because Leeds want rid of Jansson and Bristol don’t want rid of Webster.

If i was Fulham I would have appointed hughton and I think him with that squad they go up. Surprised no one came in for Carney tbh. Was very good at championship level but premier league didn't perform well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimzk5 Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 (edited) Stoke v Leicester preseason game Ryan Shawcross just cleared the ball and suffered an horrific ankle break.

MarkLillis Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 (edited) Have to think Leeds are going to do well again this season. They would have been a Premier league side this year if it hadn't been for the debilitating atmosphere of desperation that builds up around them. If they learn from it no one in this division can stop them. After that i could see Swansea being good and also Stoke,Brentford,Fulham and Baggies being in and around the top six Edited July 28, 2019 by MarkLillis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Think Fulham will be top 2. Ivan Cavalerio- Mitrovic- Knockaert is a brilliant front three for that level, miles better than what West Brom can put out atm. Tom Cairney is a fantastic attacking midfielder at this level aswell. They won't be exposed at the back as much last season aswell. If they start well I fancy them to win the league as that's been the problem in previous seasons. The new yo yo team. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted July 29, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 29, 2019 I think the other danger Leeds face is a lack of buy in from the players. Bielsa's style of management (and other managers who have that sort of intensity) is it works when the players are fully bought in. When they can see it's working and are committed to the schedule and intensity of it then it works. If you lose that buy in from the players then it can all fall apart. I guess that's true of any manager, but I feel like the kind of management style Bielsa brings is particularly vulnerable to that. The collapse last season might contribute.

VillaChris Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Think Leeds would've been in more danger if Bielsa had walked out. Bad managerial pick and back to mid table. Helder Costa has been a good pick up for them but surprised they haven't added more options to their squad given the injuries and burn out they had in the run in. Not sure Leeds will be as close to top 2 as last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
