HanoiVillan Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 I have to agree with the points that he's tidied up at the back and slightly shifted to a more pragmatic style in some games, and frankly I think it makes Leeds a more challenging prospect.

MarkLillis Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Leeds are a good team.Their games are good to watch and I’m glad they are back in the Premier League. However I have not enjoyed every attack being described as free flowing.Or each bit of rank bad defending excused because it is exciting to watch. The media drooling is immensely off putting in my opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego Llorente been a great signing for them, no way they get close to 50 goals conceded with him making 30 starts. 2 goals conceded v Chelsea, Manchester clubs and Liverpool in last 6 weeks is very good going particularly as they obviously just don't sit back in all of those games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hornso Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 As much as the media drooling and some of the fans regularly popping up around here at opportune moments annoys me, can't deny that they've been impressive in their first season back. Fair play to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 If they got rid of the cheat Bamford I’d like them a hell of a lot more. Can’t stand the word removed. He’s on the list with Troy ‘I’m a hard man’ Deeney and Ben Mee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted April 27, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted April 27, 2021 Leeds are a good team. Fun to watch, doing really well for a promoted team, character for a manager. They've done really well. Their fans are a bunch of absolute words removed though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy316 Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 As a collective they're like a weird frothing cult. They're all over practically any football related news story on social media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're all over practically any football related news story on social media. I think the reason for this is because their fans have spent the last 20 years or whatever, with their club bumbling around lower divisions, all the while looking at the Premier League having Bournemouth, Swansea, Blackpool and so on getting more attention than their club. I guess their perception would be "hold on, we're Leeds, we're a big club and we've been ignored and starved of the attention a club of Leeds' size merits" - and now they're finally getting that attention and their fans are therefore chipping in and all over it. It's kind of a mix of inferiority complex and superiority complex and they don't quite know how to accept their new situation after the 20 years of being ignored.

It's Your Round Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Patrick Bamford made a guest appearance on the Peter Crouch podcast today. They asked him about the El Ghazi cheating incident, and what went through his mind. He sounded quite remorseful and basically apologised, calling his behaviour embarrassing. Fair enough, but I still don’t like him! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to be toning down his s**tf***ery lately, and if he is trying more to play in the spirit of the game, then I am all for forgiving him.

VillaChris Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 (edited) Spurs have won 3 away games since early November so in terms of big name scalps I don't think Leeds beating them is that extraordinary, just seems like it because our record v Spurs is so bad in recent times. Indeed without checking I think Man. United is only top half team Spurs have beaten all season although we may have been top half when they beat us. Probably important for their mentality going into next season they beat a top half team without Phillips starting as their record in games when he hasn't featured this season is nearly as bad as ours without Jack.
