#football #leedsunited #49er #leeds
It’s a Saturday apparently 😂
The issue that people don't get is the away form puts pressure on home form - people seem to have forgotten last season. Blackburn, Sunderland and Saints - 1 point when we needed 3 wins. The same is happening again.
100%
Locky, brilliant brilliant summary.
Best teams don't also start panicking and start taking pot shots from 25 yards old. Keep playing your game!!
DJs 30 yard left footed shots … when that happens I panic 😂 cheers man appreciate it.
Absolutely spot on!! I've just seen Bamford's miss, and feel sick!! What the hell of an attempt was that!! Thanks mate.
Was shocking mate haha. I genuinely laughed but hey, it’s what we do isn’t it .
Did you see joseph miss exactly same chance ..
@@LockyyLeeds so ignoring the fact joseph missed exactly same chance .he got lucky it hit the defender
You need to reset your calender
Valid points Locky and spot on about the lack of desire shown by most of the team, Dan James apart. The difference between the first and second place teams is SU grind out results - we don’t. They beat PNE & Millwall away, we did not. Also need to bear in mind they were docked two points but are still now three points clear of us.
Yes we beat them at Elland Road but one result does not win a season - look at what we did to Ipswich and Leicester last season. Who ultimately got promoted? IMO we lack not just a better GK, number 10 or a prolific finisher but also that total 100% desire to win for those genuine devoted fans and the club. Without that heart felt desire no team, no matter how talented will win this league.
I still sing the same tune from last season, Farkeball isn’t going to take us up. This is exactly the same shambles as last season. Any coach who sets up a proper defence can take points off Leeds. Everyone knows we have the best players but pub teams can beat us. We are not going up with Farke
The one thing that stood out for me was the lack of intensity in the first half and for the the first 20 minutes in the 2nd. I got sick of watching the laborious tippy tappy playing on the dbe ofbthe box and failing to pick out a runner and there was plenty of runners who never got the pass. How many times did we actually go all the way back to Meslier. Possession football is crap unless you get an end product. FARKE didn’t even gee them up at half time. When we finally got near the end some then speeded up and Solomon came on and showed urgency. Our players are very good and ripped them apart but too late, maybe if FARKE had put a rocket up their asses …. Sorry he ain’t good enough these days, football has moved on from Farkeball at Norwich
I agree - there were a lot of slack passes which ended up with losing possession. That was starkly different from the Middlesborough game.
Ye exactly. We lost the ball so quickly at times that we couldn’t build up much momentum in the game . Not a great day at all but still a point 👍
Agree with everything you say Locky - why can't Farke see it though? He should be making necessary tactical and personnel adjustments game to game, as well as in game, but he won't or can't. I fear his stubbornness will be our downfall as will keeping Mes in goal and persisting in playing out of form players. I'm worried!!
Stubbornness is probably 95% of managers downfall these days. If I was one, I fear it would be mine too. They have ideas and think they are the best ideas and who am I to suggest different ones hahaha. I’m not worried yet just frustrated with the whole team on how there is such a huge difference in home and away. So so strange isn’t it.
Completely agree. No fight. Would have got guillyvogi on for some muscle. Bamford miss was bad. But Joseph didn’t even touch the ball. Lucky him that full back did.
Was a game crying out for the likes of batty or Vinnie Jones. I agree that I would have played big josse. Like for like. Need more.physixal players against the likes of Preston and millwall
Ye Is love to see a bit more of him too whiteswan. Ye both shocking to be honest haha.
If our home form slips and we will be in the play offs. This performance has been so often that it needs explaining by Farke, he stated that he sets up the same home and away but it does not look like it.
Spot on locky, you showed more pride and passion on you stream than most of the players did in the Leeds shirt.
Ye man but it’s Easier for me sat a screen without the presser though. I actually recorded the video 2 times, but the sound messed up on the first so I was probably more angry In the second one because of that 😂 cheers for the support, Tommy 👍
We need a more defensive structure away from home. Their attack breaking like sea on the rocks. Same structure home and away isn’t working! Change it!
Yes, I think we are absolutely deadly one the counter and we used to be more definitely at times and we looked really good when doing so, not sure why we don’t do it at times. I think Ampadu in the middle will massively help to do that though as Rothwell and tanaka are ball dominant midfielders where as Ampadu can do both set ups very well.
Locky we all share your frustration and bewilderment. We need a 9 and 10. None of the strikers worth their pay. Aaronson, very busy, but keeps missing ‘big’ (massive, humongous) chances/gifts. Bamford, only brought back memories of how he can miss sitters and Piroe is frustrating beyond belief, trots at best and unable to control/hold the ball up. On performance alone, Gnonto must be our number 4 choice winger. He generally shakes his head when he is brought off, whereas never sure why he stays on so long. Then we get to Dan James……absolute star!!! Need to sort out our away form, lack of energy, passion and desire. At this point, we look like we could throw away a golden opportunity of automatic promotion.
100% on all that Kevin. Ye we definitely need a 9 and or 10 for sure, Mateo needs more time as he’s only 20 in his 1st full season as a “main” player , that’s a hell if a lot of pressure for anyone never mind a young and inexperienced guy. And yes for all Aaronson as good bits, he is wasteful and we need a different option in that role for sure. I’m convinced Sheff U and Burnley will all strengthen so we can’t be left behind. Dan James is absolutely amazing isn’t he !!
After watching your other review on what we need in the transfer window, I slightly amended my feedback, in that we need a first rate 9, keep Joseph and give what is obvious talent, time to develop. Keep Piroe for his impactful last 15/20 mins and thank you and goodbye Bamford …..design a beautiful exit, however we can that benefits us and him
I saw Solomon ride a tackle really well. Others would do well to follow his example and show a little tenacity. Cheers.
Your great I think your analysis is spot on
Cheers, Robert. Appreciate the support pal 👍
Agree fully. No matter how talented the squad, with one or two exceptions, without desire you cannot win this league. SU grind out results, we do not. How many times last year did Ipswich come back from behind to win games. We beat both Ipswich and Leicester last season but lost to perceived weaker teams through a lack of grit and sheer determination. Same again this time around, we beat SU but lose to Millwall, Blackburn and only draw at PNE - SU beat them all away. We don’t just need a better GK, a real number 10 and a prolific finisher, we need 100% what you cannot buy, the heart to win for the fans and the club.
Spot on mate. And watching some of the away Sheff u games o tv.. they don’t look great at all but they fight and take their chances! They look extremely organised without been pretty. They have shithouse players and ones who love to wind up the opposition we don’t really, they are all nice.
I would argue MJ makes contact if he doesn’t have the defender on him. Still shouldn’t miss the ball. It’s a different chance though
Maybe the answer is Gruev and Ampadu in midfield away and AO and Rothwell at home 🤷♂️
Ye honestly Steve it’s a good shout. Different types of players available for different games. All who are very capable at this level. I guess time will tell with Ampadu and Gruev.
A frustrating game no doubt, and a sluggish performance from all but James. Not trying to make excuses, but I saw tired legs out there. That's the main reason for me for not getting to duals first today. Right now, due to injuries, we have little choice in our starting line up - especially in defense. We've got players like Byrum and Bogle nursing injuries, but have to be started. We are also missing our captain for his leadership, mainly.
I am getting very tired though of watching Aaronson, Gnonto and Joseph miss opportunities up front. More composure from Aaronson and not blasting way over, and that whole game changes complexion.
And Bamford must go now. His is past his sell-by date with Leeds.
I just don't see away performances improving - because, as you say they are grinding games, until we have more fully fit players available.
Ye it seems to be that 3rd game In a 3 day week where we look sluggish .. smallest squad in the league remember, good squad but as you said with injuries and small squad numbers you kind of don’t have many choices at times. Ye I agree , we are extremely wasteful and I want more from those 3 for sure. And yes we are missing our captain at times out there.
Sunday hair too, wife angry because I yelled when we scored and scared the cats, Like they aren't used to it. But yeah I've been a Leeds fan for 50 years and I hate Deepdale.
😂😂 ye I’m sure the cats don’t care at this point or they should be used to it by now. My gf doesn’t even react to my loud sounds any more, she knows.
You are spot on, agree to it all
Thankyou pal 🙌
Locky are we expecting to much,it's difficult to put your finger on the specific problem,the away form is a worry,we are their cup finals,these away games are like our fa cup performances no effort no duels won with regulatory. We need a ten,aaronson not the complete player,farkes got his patterns, he picks same team every week.its not working away to slow on build up,meslier should have saved.,if leeds capitulate again, somebody is getting 2 kier tiered for neglect..
It’s the benefit/curse of experience Ben. Observations for me are sadly and naively reduced to:
We have wine bar players who don’t seem to like spit and sawdust boozers and a fight.
With the slight exception of DJ, nobody really showed up. Mistakes count seemed high, poor choice count even higher. We looked a bit flat-footed and every loose ball fell to them.
Ordinarily not bothered until it becomes statistically improbable that we see the same script yet again.
I’m tactically numb, but I get motivation, and we didn’t look motivated, in fact, we haven’t looked motivated away from home that much.
Ye the wine bar comment it perfect haha. All some and silky but no Steele when it really needs it. I’m glad you noticed it too because it’s Just so strange when we play like this because I’m not sure why it keeps happening 😂 and that’s my point, tactics are great but when the fundamentals (winning duels, basic movement / decision making) are not there, nor the motivation, you won’t win the game. We have to fix it up and quick.
Trouble is there are no GIVE Me,s in this league
Nope. We are the big dogs, they absolutely love to play Leeds 🤷♂️
Watching the players not compete for second balls or several of them jogging back when there is a counter to defend... so frustrating. Was it fatigue? Lack of desire? I don't know but it is sad to see, especially when they have played far better. Sometimes I wish they would just throw the kitchen sink at teams from the first whistle, not from 70-80 mins.
Oh yeah forgot to mention... BALL WATCHING. FFS
I’m not sure what it is mate. My guess is they believe so much in their core principles- ball retention, dominate with possession, full hand control- that when that isn’t working and the opposition are better then they expect, they have little answers. Mentality for me, not talent or ability.
What did they say in the team huddle at the start think mess said i will let one in and you lads have a day off,
Great analysis as always
Apart from the day of the week
@@zakpullen8113shit it’s Saturday 😂😂
Cheers, Sensei 🫡
The only way we could of won that match is if the ref played by the rules and sent there player off for 2 bookable fouls, but even then we where bullied all over the pitch.
Ye that was an absolute joke Richard. It’s so clear !
Shake em up, Locky!! Remember, at the end of the day, 1 point is better than the none there last season 🤷♂️
Absolutely. Very happy with the point Just not the way we got it. We kind of went to “give it to James “ mode and we were looking lacking of ideas. But very happy with the point for sure 👍
Locky why can we not play away from home? it makes the Boro result less good, we need to play like we do at home with high tempo, Once the opposition score you can see what is going to happen. I think as a team they think the same thing as it happens all the time. The team as to treat all these away games as our cup final not just go through the motions thinking we will have enough,
Ye I’m not sure mate, many reasons I’m sure but for these lot I don’t know. Maybe there is a deeper, more counter style we need to implement away from home or an Ultra aggressive press because it’s a bit of a nothingness style at times isn’t it. I used to hate playing away and I loved the comfort and familiarity of playing at home, but these are elite pros who have to get rid of that mindset.
My goodness Leeds fans let Bamford play and get Farke sacked like all the mangers b4 who put there faith in him please lord save Leeds
It's an odd one, if we finish on the current averages we finish on 93 points but a team has never been promoted top 2 with 1.4 points away from home
Is that so ? 😂 only Leeds could get promoted through that strange way then surly haha
@LockyyLeeds haha yeh it would be very leeds 🤣
I would like to Ramazani and James start on the wings next away game, I feel there 2 quicker players
We massively missed Ramazani after his performance injury 🙏
Well coached in general for sure. But we all knew that would be a scrap and Guilavogui didn’t play. (Hindsight) Thought it called for a set piece team and possibly a 4-3-3 with a six and two eights.
Most frustratingly, Bogle was poor enough in the first half that a sub was the obvious call.
Also, Aaronson fluffed it this game. Unfortunately he wasted at least two big chances either passing or shooting.
Ye really wanted Guilavogi for this one, midfield 3 right now is something I want to see as well. Because for the Kody part Aaronson wasn’t getting in his usual spaces and we couldn’t find a way to find players.
We need a Striker & Buendia on loan in January.
Blackburn only 5 behind with a game in hand now!
9 & 10.. no messing around, it’s so clear isn’t it.
@@LockyyLeeds why does Farke need the best players in every position to win the league when we have more than enough, where are is managerial skills instead of having just the best players to get him out of a pickle, we play too safe locky and i want a full on press in away games with james ,arronson,joseph who that would suit, no urgency,no intensity,slow, this is the mentality of the manager which has been given to the players
Just watched sheffield. Plymouth arguably better but sheffield can finish. Over season we will prevail.
Same every single week Natalie .. every week 😂 ye still confident but Just frustrated with these lot .
Thanks Locky
I would love your form report on this game ….. we were dreadful
How long can this continue. we don't appear to have any steel in the side. Style over content 😢
Ye, all silk no steel 👍
Is it possible to agree with everything said but then still not think it was that bad today? 😂
I think it's because I'll never forget away to West Brom... I'm also now convinced it's Sunday
I've just checked on my phone and I'm still not totally convinced it's Saturday, how often is Locky wrong?, did Farke steal a Saturday just because he can?, crazy times.
@ I honestly had to go to the fixtures to check it was Preston today 😂 I thought am I late to an upload.
@@CityofLeedsFans yes because it felt more like a loss than a draw. It felt like one of those losses where we don’t get beat!
We was shocking, get real mate, take off the Leeds tinted glasses.
@ I've got real. I've learnt my lesson
We’ve not got the dirty players .. need a couple of experienced players that will kick the opponents about the pitch.. we are getting bullied
They just need to be aggressive Antony, if we haven’t got them then we need to look at recruitment but time will tell, maybe it’s in there. 👍
I haven’t watched your analysis yet but Piroe staying on the whole game was criminal. Man might as well have been dead.
I watched the one good free kick we had that was begging for Rothwell and five second before the strike it was evident Piroe was taking it.
Why this manager won’t just play the best players and change the mechanisms of the system to match the right profiles is beyond me. He just needs to change which positions fill which roles and fill which spaces at what times and he can get the best XI on the pitch. Instead we suffer through this egregious display repeatedly.
MOT
Also this team plays slow as molasses. That’s the real problem.
THANK YOU FOR CALLING OUT RODON
@@RedemptionMetaGamingI had to mate, absolutely horrid defending. Why on earth would you let it go past there, acting like you are seeing the ball out of play 😂
Bamford should start away from home. Asks more questions of sides that sit back.
we must be shite if you want bamford starting
@@marchingontogether2571We won 2.6 points per game with Bamford starting last season. 1.85 points per game without him. Him starting is key to our away form despite his poor finishing and all the hater's tears.
@@TheBarneyCard but its not last season
@@marchingontogether2571and Bamford has played less than 150 minutes of football, all from the bench. Neither Piroe or Joseph have put in a man of the match performance in the 9. We need someone in the shit-house games who can hold the ball up and niggle the CB's. Bamford is best at that.
CAn't finish, has no presence, is slow, injury prone and has regressed from last season which is amazing. We need physical players - the joseph haters will be out in force but he is a presence, the other one is Aaronson - doesn't seem to work either, maybe need a change there. BAmford is not the answer and we need the wages off books - somehow.
Not one player gets credit for this game
Just Dj for me 😁
Why don't you call out Farke for our appalling away form?
Did you not see the bit where I mentioned we should press more away from home ?? That’s a farke decision… listen to the conversation it’s right there. Also it’s based on my experience, I’ve explained endless times why .. it’s about the fundamentals, that’s my issue, not winning second balls, not scoring easy chances, letting the ball go across your box, getting 2 hands on a shot and not saving it… thats not the manager. I’ve also said in my last 3 videos I think we should play a midfield 3 as they are getting overrun and I’ve also said we should press. So the answer is I do you clearly Just miss it mate.
@LockyyLeeds fair enough, but Locky, don't you think the manager should be able to identify and address the issues you clearly feel need addressing?
not good enough for a team that thinks they can get promoted.
Nope !
If our home form was as bad as our away form Farkettes would still blame the players
That’s an absolutely massive if tho isn’t it cos we are absolutely top notch at home..
@LockyyLeeds Is that because of Farke or the players ability?
@@EezyB-tf1ei2qx8qboth… it’s a team sport. Both have a responsibility to win the game, that’s why they all get paid a lot of money.
@@LockyyLeeds Farke was brought in to achieve promotion, the players were brought in to play football, If the manager can't get the best out of a talented squad are we really supposed to believe nobody could, non of the three managers that won promotion last season? Non of the top six managers this season? Non of the arguments for keeping Farke make any sense if his job is to gain promotion
Not good Our Locky
at the moment Leeds are “doing a Farke”.
Locky can you not see the bigger picture?
In what sense ?
@LockyyLeeds Leeds need promotion for ground expansion to make any sense, If we are to compete at the top end of the premier league,
Farke has one of the best squads for the last two seasons but has the same issues
If he were in the premier league would he not have the same issues against much better opponents, he certainly wouldn't be bailed out by home form, for me the wellbeing of the club comes first, not the manager
We've seen this away performance over, and over and over again under Farke. Another game where he's like a rabbit in headlights, and not seeing what everyone else sees , which is to make changes at halftime. Why Solomon wasn't on from the get go after half time is beyond me. Then his subs are like waiting for a bus. You don't see one for an hour, then three arrive at the same time. It is getting very boring and predictable, and may actually cost us an automatic place.
Is it possible to agree with everything said but then still not think it was that bad today? 😂
I think it's because I'll never forget away to West Brom... I'm also now convinced it's Sunday
I’ll be fine that tomorrow Jack , I said it was Sunday ffs(heads gone)😂 in context it’s fine isn’t it as we did draw, I just cba with us missing from 3 yards then top CBs watching the ball go past acting like he’s next to the byline. just basic shit that Preston should be doing not us. Like even the goal annoyed me cos he missed the bloody ball😂 my god West Brom was bad, I had a prober rant after that.
