No point, You'd right him off after a few games.

A mate of mine is writing off players like James already too.. had a long argument with him the other night about it. Absolute hogwashery

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Fri Nov 12, 2021 1:51 pm  

I haven`t written anyone off I comment on what I see rather than looking at everything through rose tinted glasses.
If you are happy with the performances of James, Harrison, Roberts and Firpo so far then good for you.
I personally think they have been poor. I have not written off James and Firpo as you say as they have just arrived.
In fact I have said I`m sure they will come good but so far they have been poor.
But you keep wearing those glasses Jack.

For me Robert and Harrison are biggest culprits. They've no excuses. Been here long enough and should be doing much better. Harrison was good last year, this year he has been awful. My mate was blaming Dan James playing behind the reason why Harrison is playing so poor

Harrison has been poor this season, but he has a rib injury and has had covid. Everyone in our squad who has had covid has struggled afterwards. It's no joke.

Now even I think that`s a joke mate.

That`s fair enough but with Bielsa being such a stickler for not playing some because they are only 99% fit (Phillips and Raphina spring to mind)
It makes you wonder why he has played Harrison if he`s injured.
As I`ve said I`m not writing anyone off other than Roberts.
But I personally don`t think Harrison, James at £30 million or Firpo have set the world on fire just yet and I would throw in Klich for good measure.
I haven`t written them off as you implied I just think so far they have not delivered.

I think Chapy is just on the wind up with his constant writing off of players.

Marty you should know better
The only one I`m writing off due to the amount of chances he`s been given and still doesn`t get above a 5 out of 10 is Roberts.
The others I refer to have not been written off.
I`m saying they have not performed this season and players like James and Harrison who cost over 40 mill should imo be doing better.
But fingers crossed they will all come good, maybe even Roberts and I will be made to eat my words.
I`m sure others on here agree but some don`t want to hear anything negative.

Ive always said that about Leeds Utd fans. Very protective and defensive about their club even when reality is staring them in the face.

Its a really odd trait they have. Loyal bunch tho, cant knock em for that.
