Over the last thirty-eight league games we've taken forty-six points, they've taken thirty-four, again only Southampton have been in worse form than them. So this so called character and drive not doing them much good, they've won just two of their last nineteen in the league. They haven't got the technical ability , their players aren't good enough but they have a character that we lack. If we can get get , grow or whatever it takes to get that character then we won't fade in games like we did against City and Leicester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of their threat seems to come from wide players like Gnonto, Harrison and Summerville. Stevie would have those three straight on the scrap heap to accommodate his ultra narrow system. Can just see it now, Ayling providing the only attacking width lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 I think whats attracting them to gerrard is mccalister as number 2. They love him up there. Why not just hire mccalistwr as no 1 instead of gerrard? Please let it be stevie g. He will pick up a couple wins before he ruins them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players like Ayling might not be world beaters but their presence on the pitch drives the whole team to fight for each other and the club.. Drive to win that has 13 wins in the last 60 league games and conceding 128 goals in that time What we need at VP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have shit players that are over achieving even if they are losing every game. I watched them against manure and they played well but have no quality, especially up front , Bamford isn't good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaParkAvenue Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Gerrard would be ideal, taking them down without a doubt. We don’t have any more games against them this season, so no risk of Gerrard inspiring them to beat us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will roll over and have our bellies tickled when we come to play Man U as we do with the top 6. I'm not a fan of Leeds at all, but do see who they are. C'mon mate, we beat Man Utd 3-1 not that long ago. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Going for an interim manager until the end of the season which probably fits why they might be interested in Gerrard to get a short term boost Schreuder was at the game visiting Ten Hag and McLaren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Schreuder was also at the Leeds players hotel and some reports that he'd been shown around their facilities, the idea that he was at the game because of Ten Hag and McLaren is just a convenient excuse so they don't have to admit they changed their minds because of fan pressure, as that doesn't reflect well on them or Schreuder himself. Besides he'd been linked with the job days before and had become favorite with the betting companies, it wasn't as if the rumour started just because he was at the game yesterday, by that time he was already favorite for the job, would be one hell of a coincident if he just happened to be visiting Man Utd coaching staff just as he's been heavily linked to the managerial job of the team they're playing. A lot of Leeds fans seem to think the link to Schreuder was some skilfully orchestrated charade by their board, to fill them with a sense of dread at the idea of his appointment so when instead someone like Nuno is appointed that appointment will be more palatable, leaking a name to the press with such an endeavour in mind is one thing, but inviting manager to a game, have him visit players at hotel, and so on is something else, no board going to go to that length. Also not sure why they would have to do anything at all to make Nuno seem a better option, Leeds fans talk about him as if he's a Steve Bruce type or something, but truth be told he's probably the best, or at least the most proven manager out of all the realistic names they've been linked with, not saying he's an amazing, but for a club in their position they would be lucky to get him. Gerrard would be such a strange appointment, so much is riding on them suriving this season, so would be bizzare for them to appoint someone that failed with us, would perhaps be a little more understandable if they could get Beale as well but that's not going to happen, although their board were apparently admirers of Gerrard as a manager before he came to us so who knows.

The Fun Factory Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 They aren't very good and I don't know how ambitious their owners are. Lower mid-table is probably the best they can hope for. It wasn't that long ago they were doing nothing in the championship and averaging about 25,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Leeds have so far conceded 171 goals since promotion, 79 of which came in Bielsa’s final season. They were incredibly lucky to avoid relegation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
