Highlights: Leeds United 0-1 Blackburn Rovers | EFL Championship 

of course its on Farke. He took our main def.midfielder off and our best attacker.

Farke needs to go.

@@yorkie6013 both coming back from injury. He already said they’re not available for 90 mins. He left them as late as he could.

@@LogicPak fool.

Joseph should have started over Piroe. Gray needs dropping (I don't know why he's immune to it), Kamara is better and more experienced. Gnonto should be our second option in the 10. And Cresswell should be involved, he'd provide some actual threat from set pieces (we currently have none).

Yup

The goat

30 goals altogether

This season

Reckon it’s gonna go to the last game ,

Southampton are still in the run-in.

​@@josephrobert194 9 points behind from automatic promotion, not sure if this is going to happen. ?😮

7 points off top with, 2 games in hand with Leeds and Leicester to play. Could be interesting

@@floak123 Oh yeah. Never realised. 🫣

No different from Ipswich for example who had several players playing in international break including broadhead and Moore who played extra time and pens for Wales.

Only problem with that is, the worst players, on the day, weren't away playing for their countries..... practically having two weeks off? Also, Leicester had hardly any players on international duty, Perhaps they were `rusty'????

@@shill6449 yes and Leeds had masses of cash compared to almost every other team in the league to get a decent squad together

Even as a Chelsea fan, I can't understand why he doesn't start Joseph. He has this goal scoring instinct and is a willing fighter and runner. Kind of player to give his all and put his body on the line for his team.

@@josephrobert194Indeed

You are both exactly right about Mateo. Why on earth doesn't Farke start him especially over Bamford. It simply defies all logic why all these Leeds' managers keep starting Bamford even though he didn't start this one. And what a waste to keep leaving Mateo on the bench

you couldnt beat sunderland either and we battered them by 5 - this is the championship you mork.

They were crap. They didn't come to play, they came not to lose.

​@@stephenmaude yep, Leeds deserved the win

😂😂😂 What a bell end grow up.

When you've just been hammered on the road and your next one is Elland, coming away with a one nil win is hardly "crap". What does that say about Leeds of its true? Nah mate, you're doing your own club a disservice. In my opinion they can't be faulted for trying, they put us under pressure throughout, we managed to weather it and hut you on the break Can be cruel we all know that feeling. Good luck with promotion though.

@@MarkAbRobert-jv6it guessing you didn't watch the game then

I thought I was the only one who has been noticing this. He's too self-centered. Wants to take all of the glory, instead of playing for the team.

Yes, would have dropped him weeks ago, for that exact same reason. So many times there have been teammates in better positions, yet he tries to shoot from an impossible angle.

@@donaldtrusty228Except he’s been part of quite a few goals in the past few games, 2 against Hull & 1 against Watford

Imo I think he'd be a good captain tbh, the team obviously trusts him and he shows his leadership skills all the team

Farke also needs to go

Not happening. Farke has been given game after game to see what is wrong, EVERYONE else can see what is wrong and HE changes nothing. All that possession and all those shots on goal and no goals would tell a village idiot from a Borneo jungle what needs changing but this village idiot from Germany can still see f*** all.

Leicester and Ipswich aren't brilliant at the moment. Maybe there is a good chance for Leeds.

Southampton are creeping up there after that late win today

​@@SaintWill70unlikely, Saints have bottled it all season, and they were second favourites to get promoted.

Southampton are in the mix for top 2.

@@fumblingdetectiveIpswich though have a two week break now, to re charge. Plus they are picking up points. Even if not winning in last three.

Indeed

Plenty of chances

Most probably because Farke didn't start Mateo. The most natural goal scorer they have.

This is not the relegation team apart from Bamford, Firpo and Cooper.

This. I wish there was a tonic for the inconsistency.

And as soon as he’s taken off, rovers score 🤦🏽‍♂️

As a Rover fan it is pretty common to lose our top finishers, Rhodes, Diaz, Armstrong just t name a few. I don't see that changing unless we start pushing for playoffs.

I’d say it’s a fait accompli at this stage. Sammie will be moving on soon.

They get paid enough to be exhausted. The rest of us have to work 45 hours a week for far less even if we're exhausted.

I agree they are well paid in comparison to most of us but the pressure on them is relentless and for some it is too much

We can win all 3 games and still be in the play offs

Dan James looks dangerous as well, but we never pass to him or play down the right.

😅😅 Classic mate

He's shown how appalling he is, we're so easy to play against, he's never been able to rectify his one way of playing, he's arrogant and has been found out.

Massive three points in a game I expected us to lose. Amazing win for the lads.

2 shots on target, 1 goal. What a goalkeeper!

He didn't, bamford came on as a sub, Piroe started the game.

Actually this was the game he should have started Pat. He should have rested Pat in the last two. Players like Summerville and Gruev have no place in a Leeds Squad… to immature football wise.

@@kevnorth9812 Summerville is our top goal scorer and will probably be in the Premier League next season regardless if Leeds go up or not.

Hear hear !!!

It's inexperience. We have a young squad. You can't rely on young players. Bielsa knew this. They tend to collapse when the pressure is on. Also, Meslier and Bamford are obviously not good enough, and have been our undoing for 3 years now. GK and CF are the two most important positions, and we can't rely on either.

​@@heldinahtmlhellWow, your 2nd paragraph is exactly right. But the young players are far better than the ones we had before so don't be too harsh on them. The problem is we have a great goal scorer who Farke leaves sitting on the bench week in week out in Mateo. We need him on from the start to score the goals.

Bielsa and his choice of players were overrated. That's why we ended up getting relegated. Just look at some of the crap players he bought.

@@stevecarl1292 Bielsa didn't buy players, Orta did. Managers don't buy players in modern football. Nor do they scout players. They just select players from a list that has been scouted by the Director of Football, for the most part. The recruitment Bielsa had to deal with was largely poor, especially in his last year. It's a miracle he was able to be so successful with such meh recruitment. Recruitment is more important than what manager you have, and managers are rarely successful, even great ones, with bad recruitment. You can go back to the Championship, when we sold Roofe and basically didn't replace him. We ultimately replaced him with Tyler Roberts. We lost our 2nd best player (White) when we got promoted. And in his last season, we signed 2 players and sold about 6. In what was already a threadbare squad, in our second season in the PL, with a Championship squad. And then bought nobody in January, when we had the most injuries in the league. An utter joke. And Radrizzani leaked to the press that this was because of Bielsa and his choices. Which was a lie. He's since said that Bielsa told him, after our first season in the PL, we needed a whole new squad, because it was impossible to repeat what he did that year with that squad. And he'd, at the very least, wanted a new CM/10 that Summer, Conor Gallagher was 1st choice, but Orta failed to deliver him. We then went after Lewis O'Brien at the last minute, and again failed. Leaving Bielsa with a joke of a squad. Which he, again, did wonders with. I actually think our signings for Bielsa in the PL were good. We just didn't sign enough players. Raphinha was great, Rodrigo was very good (when fit), Llorente was very good in his first season (when fit). Koch was good (when fit). And Firpo would have eventually been decent if he'd been able to stay fit and get a run of games. Dan James we spent too much money on, but was decent, and suited the way Bielsa played perfectly. The problem was we signed just SIX players in 2 years, in the PL, after promotion. What a joke. We didn't even sign a senior GK after Casilla left. And Bielsa's signings were bespoke and fit the way he played. You can completely see why he wanted each player. Firpo was an attacking and physical full back. James was an absolute workhorse, insane fitness levels, pace and aggressive. Llorente was a front foot, ball playing CB (in theory). Koch was a ball playing CB, who could also play DM. And Raphinha was a brilliant winger with a good work ethic and fitness levels. The only one who didn't really fit his system was Rodrigo, but he had such quality it was worth taking him and trying to make him fit. And, when fit, he was really good for us under Bielsa. Contrast this to recruitment under Marsch. Where we signed players who didn't fit the system at all, and weren't what we needed at all. Particularly McKennie. Bielsa kept a Championship squad in the PL for 2 years. Marsch, Gracia and Allardyce got a PL squad relegated in 1 year. Sorry for the lengthy rant, but Bielsa smears annoy me.

@@stevecarl1292 They are, they're great young players for this level. But they're still young players, and young players tend to fold under pressure. Look at Meslier last season. He was disastrous during the relegation fight. Struijk has been good in the first half of both previous two seasons and then progressively collapsed in the 2nd half, as the pressure built. And the fact we're such a big club makes the pressure greater. Playing in front of 40,000 expectant fans is hard. Especially during a relegation fight when they're on your back. IMO it's a big factor in why we've crumbled in playoffs before. Being a big club, at lower levels, feels like a disadvantage when the pressure is on. Because Championship players can't handle that pressure. But I agree Joseph should be starting.

Almost right… but again you’re seeing the game from the wrong angle. As I stated elsewhere Pat should have played a full game today and not the last two games. The children on the squad have no idea of what a real game of football is about. Take the error from Illian M… throwing the ball in desperation. Clearly wanting the team to get the Efin out and play forward. Too slow, too greedy, too inexperienced. ( Gnonto excluded)

The answer to your question is Farke.

@@kevnorth9812 Bamford is gash mate.

Leeds fans were claiming for a penalty whilst the ball was still on the kickoff spot… or at least might as well have been. Nothing even close to a pen 😂

Farke happened.

Pointless playing Bamford, he's bloody useless.

​@@Zarkava8daft comment so we lost because of bamford 😂he didn't even start knonto was lively but for some reason farke took him off, some strange substitutions

​@@davidfoster7430 Bamford did nothing when he came on and missed sitters when he starts. Useless.

@@davidfoster7430no he’s just making the point that Bamford shouldn’t see the field especially when his confidence is low and he’s out of form

@@Zarkava8 yeah cool story did you watch it on the radio 🤣

You should get out off our fanbase

we're not really that poor, we've been punching the playoff positions for last few seasons. Just tax laws in India have fcked up the last couple of windows. The core of the squad is still the same.

@@mikeywalker3778 as a fan of any team if your side played die hard games every week like that you would be in the play offs. Lower level teams always raise their game against Leeds. What we do wrong is go all out attack all the time it's predictable if we parked the bus like Rovers and kick and run like a league one side that would be interesting. Getting sucker punched by lower level teams like that is frustrating

@@tonuppirate lower level? lol Dude, this is the championship, stop talking about lower level teams, especially those more successful than your club.

@@mikeywalker3778 yep lower level half the following of Leeds and half the attendance so your always going to struggle. If we build the new 20k extension I'm sure we would fill that as well. The future is bright because of the fans.

@@tonuppirate ever won the premier league. Typical leeds fan puts it on attendance and not history - go support Newcastle while you at it

It’s not just bamford we’re not taking our chances

LogicPak eh? Who make an illogical statement base on no football knowledge. Pat is our best forward at present, with no support, Gnonto our upcoming Rodney, with no support, Gray our best defender who should be in midfield,… you work the rest out in your own time! And Farke, well… too… inflexible.

@@kevnorth9812 Bamford is utter gash. Joseph should have been starting after that Chelsea game. Farke is useless.

@@HarleyLUFC45 Who did our best chance fall to in this game?

@@heldinahtmlhell In my opinion piroe farke needs Joseph to start over bamford tho still

Proof? If anything the games are rigged AGAINST Leeds, just look at the last few matches with blatant handballs and fouls everywhere against them. I assume you are one who is officiating at some of these matches given your blatant bias.

Bamford should be playing for a blind XI.

A lot of fans turn a blind eye to his complete ineptitude at controlling a ball, it's embarrassing for a player even at championship level.

Bamford has not been an effective player for Leeds for the last 3 seasons, what do Manager’s see that we don’t 🤷‍♂️ I think we should try a new tactic, put 11 players behind the ball, wait until the opposition put their 11 players into our half of the pitch, then play a long ball over them and run down the other end and score a goal, you never know, it may just work 😂

With 19 clean sheets?

@@stephenmaude cause he's not had to do anything 😂😂😂

Don't bother, Leeds fans have a weird hard-on for him, despite the fact he's been awful for 3 years, got Bielsa sacked, got us relegated and is now a big factor in us bottling promotion. They celebrate him making a basic save like he's cured cancer.

It looks like Pears might be the worst keeper in the league 😂
