Van der MoodHoover Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 They seem to be spending big and going foreign. Very interesting. Will Bielsa be moving away from his all-action high pressing style? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too busy allegedly and the club are scheduling time for him to do it. Is it really that difficult?! Oh yes it is with El loco (the mad one). He has history, I think at Roma he left before season started at Lille he got them to buy lots of players rebuild training ground it all went pear shaped and was sacked within a few months. At Marseille he ducksd off very early on in his second season when it started to go wrong. Good coach but a mad one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamNut Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 He has achieved a miracle, to get that Leeds team to win the league by 10 points. Incredible. from game 1 they were unrecognisable. they face a big test but if Sheffield United can do well, then Leeds can survive too. i hate them as much as anyone, but I can’t help admire what the mad bugger has achieved.

They amount they were spending is always overlooked. In 18/19, they had a wage bill of £41.4m, which almost certainly increased further in 19/20. Despite making a profit on sales in the 18/19, they still made a loss of £22.4m, which would have remained at a similar level in 19/20 due to selling players. In fact, I think over the past two seasons, Leeds have spent more on wages than any other club in the Championship - even more than those in receipt of parachute payments!

Jourdan Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Good luck to them. Of course it’d be wonderful to see them crash and burn and get whipped every week. But realistically they could follow the same trajectory as Wolves and Sheffield United in recent years, especially if their major signings settle and adapt well to English football. The bottom half of the Premier League is very poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could put it up for auction... How much would we donate to charity, as individuals, if Leeds were to come straight back down with 10 points or less? I'll start the bidding at a nice round £1k #Letuspay ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewe Ram Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I saw a bloke in Home Bargain in Derby yesterday with a Leeds Utd mask on. A fully grown man too. I mouthed something beginning with ‘w’ at him from behind my mask. Made me feel better. ariotofmyown, Gritstone Ram and Mucker1884 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nottingram Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I see that now Ben White has signed his contract at Brighton he was never actually that good anyway, certainly not as good as their new centre back who they had definitely all heard of this time last week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That record will stand longer than any of us will get to see. I reckon we'll see a team deducted 10+ points who still will get more than we did that year.
