No probably not.
I said before I had my doubts about a number of our players making it in the Prem.
I do think some will sign for PL clubs but think only one possibly 2 will be signed by a top 6 club.

Good players are likely to play better with better players around them. Plus this is a young Leeds team, Gnonto Summerville still have years of development in them. Of course they’re worth a punt. It’s not like PL teams are shy at throwing money about.

I don’t think PL teams will look at the signing of Harrison and Sinisterra and presume all Leeds players can’t hack the PL

Harrison was always overrated, Sinisterra has the talent just not sure on the attitude

Terrible performance in every area.
Defence non existent, midfield, did we have one?
Attack the worse it`s been all season.

I throught the midfield was our biggest problem last night, non existent. Gruev had a shocker and Gray went missing. I think i prefer Gray at right back.

Absolutely depressing, since the international break the team has suffered a huge drop in form also confidence.

Yeh said that before that I think Kamara/Gruev is better at least defensively with Gray covering RB.
Really disappointed with Piroe these last few games when he has had a chance to prove he can play up front.
Messlier again not one you would put your faith in.
There wasn`t one player imo who got a 5/10 last night when it mattered they bottled it.

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Sat Apr 27, 2024 11:33 am  

Kamara was essential to the winning streak after Christmas, he lost form but Farke seems to have lost all faith in him.

Was crying out for subs at half time

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Sat Apr 27, 2024 12:44 pm  

If there`s a fault with Farke it has to be his reluctance to bring subs on early or his choice of subs.
Taking Gruev off against Blackburn basically left Gray as the only midfielder as one example.
Like you say last night the team needed a shake up bringing Josephs on and taking Piroe off at halftime and moving Gray to RB with Kamara coming on might have worked.
Oh well Ipswich lose their next 2 and we beat Southampton and we`re up

With how this season has gone it’s a possibility but unlikely

Ipswich draw - they need to lose against Coventry otherwise it is the play offs as they play Huddersfield last game who are now down. The Southampton game could be two reserve sides?

Momentum is the best cure imo.
We`ve had an 8 day break go out and thump Southampton and get the confidence back.
The risk is we get an injury or a sending off to a key player.
