pulled this from another thread. it sums all 2 years of frustration. of course, we'll never have a breakout story like Rooney or Smith since they would have just sat the bench if they had Ted as the coach. 2 or 3 more games with bamrigo as our striker I'll be rooting his firing. Yank or not I'd rather him fail that Leeds fail. that's where we are heading. You don't win games if you don't score.


A striker that doesn't score is a lot like a keeper that doesn't stop shots. They may be great on distribution and goal kicks but in the end their primary, and really only, job is to keep the ball out of the net. For a striker the job is to put the ball in the net. Neither him or Rodrigo are good enough putting the ball in the net.

Making it worse is the fact we have an Italian National striker, A player that West Ham wanted to keep but couldn't get in the game enough because they have Antonio and Joffy who's shown the ability to step up big when game/season on the line.

I will never understand why Leeds gets these coaches that think that game time is given on salary or seniority rather than what they've done on the pitch. Neither bamford or rodrigo have earned the starting striker role based on goals. Sit them and give someone else a chance.
