I blamed ayling trying to do a silly flick. again I'll have to rewatch it. only saw it live

Missed most of the game last night.
But from what I did see from the goal Ayling scored we looked very organised, lots of effort but little in quality up front.
Thought Drameh should have played but Ayling did take his goal well tbf.
Still don`t see a 15 goal player in Rutter but happy to be proven wrong.
Thought it was a penalty from the replays and what a great asset that long throw in is if only we could get a player who can do that.
Struijk much better with an experienced centre half next to him.
I read somewhere that we have conceded 102 goals in 52 games with only 5 clean sheets which says it all.
And how stupid is Perkins who could be banging on the door in the absence of a striker.

If we didn’t need the money I’d be quite happy for Gnonto to rot in the reserves until his contract runs out. Ruin his career.

I think that's a pretty awful sentiment to be honest. Hes a 19 year old lad who no doubt advised by his agent too has handled this badly. He's in the wrong but come on have some perspective.

The timing of that written transfer request was scandalous. He will have given the nod to his agent to do that. Absolutely disgusting. Fair enough to put a transfer request in but to do it an hour before kick off is outrageous. He needs to be taught a lesson.

The club should not be held to ransom or be damaged by any player. He should sack his agent, apologise and get his head down. He can still leave if he really wants to at a later date. Go perform really well and someone will put a big offer in. Silly silly lad and extremely unprofessional

Yeah, suggesting ruining a kids career for a mistake though, you'd think he'd assaulted someone going by the rhetoric. How 'professional' were you when you were an adolescent? Ever do anything stupid you'd regret now?

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Sun Aug 20, 2023 9:00 am  

you'd hardly ruin it sticking him in with the kids till January.
it might actually teach him a lesson.
everton no doubt will up there offer so get rid. and good riddance. 19 or not he is an I international player and should know better

Spot on Tad

By the way I agree Leeds should hold out for all they can get for him and not be held to ransome. What I'm questioning is the stupid rhetoric of 'id ruin his career' which just makes people sound ridiculous (not that that would happen either).

Yeah agree Seth fair doos. Bit of frustration being vented
