Looking a bit deeper into his stats, he's played LB for Salzburg all season, so he's probably going to be a LB for Leeds

Made a rare trip to see the Monaco game, I appreciate it’s only a friendly and we had some better players missing but we looked poor.
A lot of
Players looked like they would not be out of place
I the championship. Kristensen does not look like a footballer to me.
Think it will be a real scrap to stay up.

Another game where our defence was woeful.
Cooper fast becoming a liability and Koch not much better.
Roca whilst winning balls in midfield couldn`t find a pass all night.
Messlier really good but could have done better with one of the goals.
Forshaw good and Gnonto good apart from getting himself booked unnecessarily which could cost us later in the season.
Paid too much respect to City and either they eased up or we started to play when we were 3 down.

never watched in as I'm in tenerife, but I wouldnt judge against probably the best team in the world.
cooper is on borrowed time though I agree

Tenerife Tad?
When we have tropical temperatures of 8 degrees here mate.
Yes agree we were playing the best team probably in Europe and were holding our own for the first 45 minutes.
Mainly due to them missing some sitters and Messlier making some good one on one saves.
Disappointed with Roca and would go with a midfield of Adams, Forshaw and Greenwood against Newcastle with Aarenson and Gnonto out wide.
Feck knows who I would have in my back 4.

was a struggle laid in 24 degrees heat on christmas day mate but I just about managed it...

I think this Wober lad looks a good signing, i think it's likley to be a replacement for Cooper and improves options at left back. Phil Hay saying today he expects Cooper and Koch to get new deals however, Cooper likely to be a squad player imo moving forward. He believes Llorente new deal is to give us some added financial security if we sell him. He's no names in the striker front though which is a bit of a concern..

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Fri Dec 30, 2022 12:14 pm  

no way cooper gets a new deal as he has 2 years left I believe.
his premier league days are about done

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Fri Dec 30, 2022 2:08 pm  

You would hope that`s the case wrt Cooper as I would much rather see Cresswell and Hjelde as our centre backs in the next year.
As I said previously I`m not convinced on all 3 of our first choice centre halves (Koch, Llorente and Cooper) and we`ve already extended the contract on 1 of them with Klich likely to follow. Adding an extension for Cooper beggars belief.
No news yet on the Harrison talks I see.

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Fri Dec 30, 2022 6:01 pm  

cresswell and hjelde next year gets us relegated. both are nowhere near premier league level yet
