I understand Fulham chartered a jet to pick Jiminez up and Aaronssen and a few others joined him. Still will be jet lagged though I assume.
Yes I prefer Gnonto in the 10 but agree with Tad that the wingers stay the same.
I do think a Sheff win by 2 goals.

Hope you didn’t have a bet!

Told you no chance of that mate.

Great performance. Tanaka and Rothwell were brilliant. I think they’ve improved us!! Especially Tanaka.

Firpo and Bogle were very good too. Strujik looking more and more like best centre half at the club and in the championship imo .

Sheff Utd were absolute gash.
Rothwell and Tanaka looked like Xavi and Iniesta tonight

great performance. picked up bristol tickets too

It looks like Josuha Guilavogui will be the free agent signing

Good display that. Sheff Utd had a bit too much space in our final 3rd at times early on but then we dominated. I really like the balance Rothwell gives us and it’s great to have someone in the team that can actually deliver a ball properly. Andy Hinchcliffe again showed why he’s the worst pundit on television with his ridiculous comment about the corner being a miss hit for Struijks goal. The blokes an absolute buffoon or maybe he just hates Leeds ? Was really pleased for Joseph, none of the other centre forwards score that goal in my opinion. Let’s hope he’s starting again soon.

Great performance. I thought Rothwell was immense and Tanaka not far behind. When you consider we spent about £10m on him and Largie, it's some great business. I thought the midfield looked more balanced with those 2 in

Regarding Hinchcliffe, he did his ultimate 'should have' comment when a Blades player played a 1st time pass but Moore was offside. Hinchcliffe said 'he should have played it sooner'. Brilliant

You almost went a full post without mentioning Bamford

You know me JB.
Thought it was funny when he shat himself seeing the cross come over from the right.
At least he managed to duck out of the way to save him the embarrassment of fluffing another chance.
So credit where it`s due


And I didn`t mention Meslier either this time.

Great performance on Friday, they were never in the game

As others have said, the midfield were great, Rothwell great going forward with the ball, something we miss with Ampadu and Gruev.

All the wingers are looking good which is great to see, and Piroe is finally starting to find some form.

Sounds like Rutter is adapting well to life in the Prem, another assist at the weekend. Saw some highlights, he looked good

I watched the game and he played well.
Plenty of energy which I`m sure was developed from his time with us.
Still tries to do the fancy stuff that works sometimes then he will lose the ball the next time.
Even my mate Jack Harrison got an assist at the weekend.
Another player that frustrates one minute then pulls something out of the bag another time according to the Everton faithful.

I dont care if he got an assist, Harrison is horse sheet

yes. yes he is

I know.
Never rated him or Bamford.
There you go mentioned him again.
Fingers crossed he leaves in Jan with Leeds having to pay 65k a week towards his wages

To be fair to Bamford, he's had a disrupted pre season and has had next to no mins. He can be useful still at this level, we'll need him at some point no doubt but hopefully Joseph and Piroe stay fit all season.

Need to back up from Friday tonight, hopefully it's not ''a day after the lord mayors show' as they say, it's a game we need to win.. can't afford it to be flat after Friday. Watford will no doubt park the bus.

Gone a bit quiet on the free agent signing as well..

but....
bamfords been crap for 3 if not 4 seasons.

I've no issues with Bamford been third choice striker, we just cant rely on him to be starting or making an impact of the bench.

it's what we pay for him being 3rd choice. highest paid player at the club

Nothing club can do about that mate. He was very useful last year when fit and had some minutes. Farke said the same. He's 3rd choice as it stands and that fine. You won't find many better at this level than Bamford as a squad striker.

Think we should have cashed in on him start of this season.
I`m not sure many clubs would want him especially on 70k a week.
There`s got to be better strikers around on that sort of money.
Woods still scoring in the Premier League I see.
But Trebor is right.
We are stuck with him so let`s hope he nets at least 10 this season.

Bamford leads the line ten times better than Piroe, that’s why when he got fit last year Piroe was dropped. He may well be 3rd choice this year, and that’s because his finishing over the last couple of injury hit years has been below the standards he set when he got his England cap etc. We suffered at the back end of last season by not having a competent centre forward, Piroe and Rutter were both inadequate when we needed them most and Bamford was again injured. I still think if Farke had been brave enough to give Joseph the necessary minutes throughout the season he could have made a real difference at the back end. That’s all in the past, hopefully we can manage a top two spot without having a crackerjack centre forward if everyone else pitches in with some goals.

It`s time our midfielders started to score goals.
When was the last time the likes of Amapadu, Gruev, Rothwell or Tanaka scored taking into account the latter 2 have only started getting picked?
Struijk I think has scored more than all of them likewise Firpo.
Personally I don`t think Bamford leading the line is in his locker nowadays.

Age and injuries mean you’re probably right. We’ve got away with not having anyone that can do that job properly. Joseph still has potential to grow into a better player to lead the line and hold the ball up.
