The Never Ending Disaster of Leeds United 

As a Leeds fan thanks mate I needed this after a depressing feeling today

Losing Rutter hurt more than anything else. Forget his output. Forget his numbers. He simply makes Leeds fun to watch. Gutted to see him go but I will support him wholeheartedly at Brighton

I knew this was coming after the loss to Middlesbrough yesterday 😂

Viz, this video coming right around the time I'm doing editing...perfect background noise plus knowledge, 10/10, no notes, thanks for being there for me big homie!

As a leeds fan myself: I came into this season with optimism due to the red bull minor stake ownership and with more money, maybe our key players would stay, I was confident gray would stay, but we forced him out for more money. Now I am dreading this campaign with all our key players gone and no real speculation on signings. I wish we'd kept bielsa and marched on through the tough time, as I always had confidence in him no matter the opponent, and the team just working like a well oiled machine. I genuinely believe if we kept bielsa, we would be in contention for European football.

Being a Leeds fan is like a giant rollercoaster lots of ups & downs

As a Leeds fan, I respect that you didn't just shit on us, and it actually seems like you care.

Been a Leeds fan since the 90s, but I'm also American. This has been a very rough few years to be both. 😭😭

When I managed Leeds United the organisation was making money every season, acquisitions were profitable overall. Left the club in a healthy position too. LMA 2005 was a great game.

Life long Leeds fan. Absolutely bang on mate

I genuinely think we will be in league one in 3 years. There is 0 chance we go up this year without Rutter which is disastrous as we have so much debt to pay off and also the remaining decent players we have will leave, leaving us with scraps and players like Bamford, Byram and Darlow who would struggle to get into teams 18th and above meaning that our squad will be so poor that our manager will also be poor and I think eventually this will lead to us getting relegated or at best being a midtable championship team

As a leeds fan u covered everything and i agree with most of what you said. I am still worrying about the transfers because we havnt made a move for anyone lately and we have sold a lot of players so we need players in the club otherwise we will struggle this season

Try 51 yrs with a couple of great things but we are Leeds & no matter what we will watch till we can’t anymore

As an American Manchester United fan, it brought a smile to my face seeing this in my feed. But I do think they should be a lot better than this.

Loosing Gray was depressing, loosing Summerville was painful (albeit expected), but loosing Rutter is absolutely devastating. The 49ers need to spend big and fast.

7:15 ever thought of making rap music?

I live in Australia and religiously follow 2 codes, with my AFL Carlton team and my beloved Leeds. Completely different sports, but crazy how these 2 teams have 1 thing in common. They Promise you the world but leave you gutted and confused by season end. Almost feel like I am in an abusive relationship with no escape 😢

When you have still have Patrick Bamford as No.9 what do you expect. He hasn’t had double figures in three seasons.

Hearing joy division at the end of the season, I swear it's better than christmas

Leeds fan for 65 years and totally agree with everything you've said. Cheers, bud.

I’m a Leeds fan. I had high hopes for this season and 2 games in and it’s already ruined.

Leeds were the darlings of football in the late 90's/early 2000's. They made the Champions League semi final in 2001 with a lot of young academy players like Robinson, Woodgate, Harte, Kewell and Smith in their squad with other young players like Rio Ferdinand, Robbie Keane, Michael Bridges, Lee Bowyer and Danny Mills. It just seemed like a no brainer that they were going to be one of the top English clubs of the 2000's. And in 2004 they were relegated 🤦‍♂

growing up with a newcastle supporter for a dad and leeds united fan's on my mum's side, i'm very grateful for my dad putting me in a newcastle babygrow aged 3 months. that's all i'll say! (not that we've had an easy ride...)

We are definitely most of the division's cup final. As well as the Yorkshire clubs you have the likes of Sunderland and Boro, as well as old 60/70's rivalries like Derby and more recently West Brom. I think if you asked fans from every team in the division the majority of them would name Leeds as the game they wanted to win most, with maybe the exception of the steel city derby.

Honestly every point is bang on. Good video👍👊

Describe consistency with one word Me: Vizeh

Love the video Viz! As an MU fan I think you nailed the perspective of "the cup final" atmosphere around Leeds. Loved watching them under Bielsa. Fantastic editing on this one aswell!👏 Would you mind sharing the background music you used in this video? It gave it a great atmosphere.

I agree with most of what you said and this is not being arrogant and no football team should have a god given right to success but Leeds is the 3rd or 4th biggest city in England with one club in it the fans have every right to and should expect more than what we get in return for the loyal passionate support that they show. We wouldn’t be where we are today if not for risdale and his overspending that caused us to implode. If we don’t go up this year my fear is we are stuck in this league for years to come like before if we go up and establish ourselves there the sky could be the limit, we have won top flight titles played European cup finals granted many years ago now but why not again with the size, scale and potential of the football club. Every club big or small is reliant on the wealth and intentions of the ownership and we always seem to have duff owners. Having said that wealth doesn’t seem to matter as much any more because Newcastle can’t spend there’s but city, Chelsea and psg can do what ever they want, one rule for some and another for everybody else. For me Leeds need to sign players and even take the risk of breaking psr, promotion to the premier league would definitely be worth it. P.s I don’t if you can tell but I hate modern football.

As a Leeds supporter for half a century I would have been happy to just stick with bielsa and hold on for dear life 🤷‍♂️

As a Leeds fan this is classic Leeds, before first game last week full of positivity going into second game feel like everything is fucked, need 3 points today just to settle the fan base, away at Brom won't be easy

Really sad to see what Patrick could have done had he not had 3 massive injuries in the 21-22 season. And even deeper than that actually been used by the teams he was being loaned to by Chelsea in his early career. very confidence dependent player.

Being born in Leeds from a family that supports Leeds and being a true fan. I don't find any of this remotely hilarious... but i'm glad you do... imagine being a England fan too.. now you understand a tiny amount of the pain we endure supporting our club...

It is the history of the Leeds

As a Bolton fan we have gone through a similar thing just a division lower, Paris Maghoma left us for Plymouth after our Wembley Woes… we are in a better place now than RB Leeds I think.

One thing about supporting Leeds is it's never boring. This is because there is constant drama on and/or off the pitch. Whether it's terrible owners, bad decision making, selling good players and not replacing them, financial woe, inexplicable dips in form just at the wrong time and a tiresome ability to not show up for that crucial match/final. It's been going on for decades. I'm sure other supporters might think the same about their club but on the face of it there are many teams from the PL down who just grind on year in year out rarely challenging for or winning anything much and not involved in relegation or promotion drama. Spurs are a team who spring to mind.

Our first game after the slamming shut of the transfer window, is against Leeds. They might be in meltdown mode by then, it will be interesting how it all goes down given both squads have been locked in for the two weeks of the international break. UTC

As a Leeds fan “Leeds are never meant to be happy” is probably almost bang on.

It's funny that you draw parallels with Everton as I'm an Evertonian & think Leeds has a brilliant fanbase!

Ur channel evolution has actually been so good gotta give u ur flowers I cant lie, been in this youtube game for a while

Hi, Vizeh. I want you to make a video called "The Problem with Scottish Football" about Celtic and Rangers dominance

im a leeds fan and i honestly agree with every point you gave here

I remember you saying like 1 or 2 seasons ago saying you would make a video on Portsmouth FC. Desperately waiting

There's a saying that Leeds United was created for the entertainment of everyone else apart from Leeds fans.

As a Leeds fan it's so over.

"Willfred Ger-nonto" 😂

As a Leeds fan, I think we are good but that’s coming from a massive fan, in reality I think we are good but deserve at most top 10 in the prem

As the African proverb says "20 kids can't play together for 20 years". Oddly fitting for the Premier League, isn't it?

Nice work lad, really enjoyed that.. ALAW

You also forgot to mention that the win away at Boro was purely down to incredibly bad referring as at least one of their goals shouldn’t have stood.

Nice video , keep it up 👍

As a Leeds fan i want to give up many times, but I still somehow cope

Good video. Always like a balanced outside perspective and you have hit the nail on the head. Off to bed to dream of signings that won't happen. MOT.

We're absolutely fucked mate. Simply put, worrying and dark times for Leeds.

Leeds will be a yo yo team for the foreseeable future, similar to Norwich. Its so difficult for teams to consolidate and establish themselves in the PL. I think of Bolton who were in the PL for years and eventually got relegated and seem a million miles away from those days now.

Exactly what I said last video. 9pm is Vizeh Prime Time.

you know its bad when we get a vizeh video ffs

That 4 nil win to stay up was purely hilarious because we all knew Leeds United would Leeds United more than they ever Leeds United'ed before, comedy you just can't match

You know the guys on the top of the team directive were not profesional, when after just some bad months they drop the guy who make them on the premier (bielsa)

The thing is at QPR we love to play Leeds and we usually have a good record against them. When we say "Cup Final" it's usually to mock them because of their history I feel like their fans have a pretentious nature which is annoying

It's a shame we haven't ditched all of the dead wood in the team (Gruev, Struijk, Bamford to name a few) and lost all of our best players. It seems like this takeover was simply to milk the club dry of its assets and ditch it. Shit time to be a Leeds fan, but then again it has pretty much been that way for over 20 years now.

I’m an Albion fan and I think we can do Leeds on Saturday. Come on you baggies 💙🤍💙🤍

As a leeds fan theres no such thing as a non stressful season

Leeds, like Newcastle , are the only major club in a big city. I would imagine it's boring not having the banter with local fans.

“Leeds to league one” There we land.

Things you love to see

As a Leeds fan, we only deserve to be where we are. We don't deserve to be in the PL just because we used to be there. But the end of this month really is a make or break for us. I can't blame the 49ers for Summerville or Rutter leaving but I can blame them for not being ready for them going with new signings coming in as soon as possible. Since the start of the transfer window, they have promised an even more competitive team for this season but we are now worse. Farke talked about needing new signings early before the season starts but here we are again. We have made some smart signings under 49ers but they haven't made a single successful star player singing yet. Hope they get good players in but it's looking grim atm

Perfect title for this vid would have Leeds are falling again

I'm a Leeds fan and agree with all of this. It's going to be a tough tough season. I don't know how we even begin to replace Archie, Georgie, and Summerville.

Writing this half an hour before kick off and we're good at home but I think we'll draw to Leeds today

For as good as Rutter is he can absolutely not shoot he’s one of the most frustrating players to watch he’s fun to watch but whenever he’s around the box you just know he will fuck it up.. 40 million is what Brighton payed for him crazy money

You talk a lot of sense my friend, I've been saying the same thing.I'm 50 odd years a Leeds fan since '72 cup final so I remember the last days of the great days. Even then it was very hit and miss. Inbred Pessimism they called it, I've learned not to get too excited but still hopeful. MOT,

I like Leeds, historically they’re very important club. It’s a shame mismanagement has left them in such a tight spot.

I hate my club sometimes lmao. I’m coping by saying “this is our tax for Marcelo.”

Not even a week in to the new season and it feels like it’s gone to crap already. Told grays sale made us compliant with psr, yet the sales keep coming. If there’s no signings and money spent before the window closes, the the 49ers have a lot to answer for.

Your musical choices are good buddy 🇺🇸

With no Rutter, no Summerville and no Gray we are a bang average team. Can't see where we are going to get replacements in next few days. We'll be lucky to get near the play offs.

We honestly need Leeds back in the Prem on history and vibes. Relegate Fulham, Bournemouth, Southampton, Brentford, Ipswich Town (Keep Brighton for now, Mitoma tax) Bring up Blackburn Rovers, Sunderland, Middlesbrough, Leeds, Swansea (Michu tax)

Would you fancy Middlesbrough to be in the promotion mix this year? Looks like a lot of momentum and talent building

I’ve been a Leeds United fan ever since I was young, I’m 26 now so probably around 20 years now of supporting the club, and I know every fan will say it about the club but there’s always that something about Leeds, whether it’s the ups or the downs, but when it’s the downs it’s a very horrible place to be, for fans, the owners, and players, even when we’re doing well we have fans that slag the sh*t out of the team. I’m starting to slowly lose hope at the moment, with lie after lie after lie. It’s just lie after lie after lie, and there’s RU-vid videos of interviews of the 49ers and they’ve all been removed, they said that we’ll be aggressive in the window to bring on players that was another lie, they said that there won’t be anymore sales that’s a lie, said about contract situations , that’s a lie, and now from watching and listening to Leeds fans it’s becoming very toxic around elland road, I will always love the club but the feeling that I have now is exactly what you said “it’s heavy” and that feeling I hate, when Leeds lose my week/ weekend is ruined when I believe the club is on the rise something serious happens and I think we’re in that “serious” bracket right now.

Leeds weren't hard done by last season and Ipswich weren't just as good, we got promoted above a Premier League squad with the same team that played in League one the season before

all leeds aren't we?

Good video as an outsider. Factually incorrect in places. This time last season we was in the exact same predicament. Opening day draw, out the cup in round 1 and desperate to make signings. Then we turned it around and for the most part had a good season which any other season with our points tally would’ve been promoted. So I don’t see how we can’t replicate that this season?

you explain it in the best way 👍

they failed miserably last season. how farke didnt get that side out of the champ is hilarious

This guy deserves respect from a Blackburn for saying the right things and not just shitting on them, he is a Burnley fan and talks sense.

Leeds atmosphere is overrated. They’re actually not good at all. The fans believe they are a bigger club than they actually are, and thus they don’t put any effort in.

As a rival fan I am loving the current state of Leeds

Finland mentioned🙂🇫🇮🇫🇮

Why we still have Bamford up front in 2024.. the mind boggles

We were really 1 win away from keeping Gray, Summerville, Rutter 😢

Through thick and thin, ALAW.

I remember the Leeds team from early 1970's, they were a horrible side. I even remember their keeper Gary Sprake, punching Bobby Gould in the face, and somehow ref booked Gould. Now they are a Yo-Yo club. a warning to other clubs that, they are not guaranteed to be top tier.

The Leeds United problem is simple, is a club that always settle for mediocrity. They don't act like a big club, therefore are not a big club. How Daniel Farke is allowed to stay at his job after the meltdown last season is beyond a joke.

Ugh I knew this was coming 😢

Video idea fc twente went in 15 years from champions to relegation to 3rd and almost played champions league this season.

I watched the Leeds and Middlesbrough game and several players looked like they didn’t really care about playing for Leeds also doesn’t help that bamford is past his best and has to be replaced

this one hurts. MOT

The Kaiser Chiefs having to come to Leicester and play I Predict A Riot through gritted teeth was a personal highlight of my summer

Would love to hear your thoughts on Burnley signing Ronaldinho's son 👀👀

As a Leeds fan the past 20 years have been depressing barring the bielsa years. I'm old enough to remember the champions league days. But we are always a club that shoots itself in the foot!! Sick of it tbh but watch your videos and love the club!! Apart from bielsa. Year after year its false promises. I hate the American owners. We were ruined after Ridsdale. Xxx
