Burnley - v - Leeds United *** Matchday Thread***

[ozleeds]

"Malaka" is a versatile Greek slang word that can mean anything from a friendly "dude" to an insult like "idiot" or "jerk". I'll take the former rather than the latter.

If by reference to "master of yours" you're referring to Nuno, I hold no brief for the guy, I just don't think the Forest owner treated him with the respect he deserved, getting Forest into Europe on a shoestring budget.

It will be interesting to see who the owner lurches towards now.

I'd be more worried closer to home than someone else's worries.

Have backed and supported farke all the Time he?s been at Leeds, but if doesn?t drop arronson, Harrison and struik now he?ll be gone before they will, the board should be held accountable for their failure to bring in a quality striker, they had as much time as anyone else to do so, but this is something we all know, makes me sick because it could all be so different.

[WTF11]

I'm not in the slightest worried about anything football-related. It's just a game, and I've come to the conclusion that the upper echelons aren't worth the time I used to spend considering them.

[UbiqueLUFC33]

I haven't seen the game yet but a cursory glance at the stats of almost 70% possession and 19 shots and yet we lose 2-0 gives me the gist. I'm willing to bet Aaronson was crap. Time for that useless, one dimensional and unimaginative boxhead to be sacked.

Really poor result against, on paper 3pts in the bag. Like most teams, we have injuries etc, but although limited we do have options, more so in formation and set up, rather than personnel, sorry Farke but its worth a try.
Bijol has to come in, played well in Euro games, Tanaka also, our vision and anything positive in CM is woeful, DCL, good in the air, but offers bugger all else.
Nmecha, Bijol, Tanaka, hopefully James for next game, also the likes of Cresswell, Chadwick, Gray, cant do any worse.

Errr....Cresswell plays for Ligue 1 Toulouse🤔

Suppose we could shove Gelhardt in too, scored for Hull today 😉

[spaldy]

We have a coach that can?t man manage and can?t make adjustments in tactics. We also can?t score. Other than that we are fine.

Fire him or enjoy relegation. I think we know what they will do.

[BelfastAndy]

I'll eat my hat if we stay up.

Alfie Cresswell, Charlies brother plays for U18, 21s, decent young midfielder, young yes, but couldnt do any worse than Harrison or Aarronson

Thanks for the correction, but is it likely in any reality we know of that Farke will provide the younger brother of a player he has already frozen out the remotest possibility of 1st team play? I suspect not.

[WTF11]

I was going to suggest that Farke watch how Sunderland play, but having watched MOTD I'd suggest he watch any game, any side (including Florists who were v unlucky) to see a side playing better than we have.

[norfolk white]

If Leeds lose I don’t bother watching motd as I suddenly lose all interest through frustration and anger, hence I have watched very little motd this season.

[hopelesslyoptimistic]

Finally watched the extended highlights.

Harrison was absolute gash for most of the game. I quite like Aaronson for some reason but he wasn?t great in this game.

Rodon and Struijk seem to be prone this season to not picking up balls into the box (including from corners). How Bijol still has zero minutes should be a mystery but we know the answer - Farke.

Timing of subs and who came on once more not good enough.

[Rev72]

The Aaronson miss was shocking and the chance Harrison had wasn't great either.

Lose to the likes of Burnley you deserve relegation , maybe we can pip them to the championship title again next season

Hey Rev - looks like it will be a long old season.
