What The HELL Happened To Leeds United? | Explained
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 ноя 2024
- 15 months to the day of this video going out, Leeds United parted company with Marcelo Bielsa, a manager who had taken on one of the fallen giants of European football, a club scarred by financial meltdown, multiple relegations, numerous owners and several disastrous managers, and transformed them into one of the continent’s most watchable teams.
His unique attacking style had set the blueprint for a side that had finished 13th in the Championship the season before he arrived, jumped up to third in his first campaign, and were promoted as champions in his second. This, coupled with the close connection he fused between the players and the fans, meant that not only did Leeds get stuck firmly back on the football map, but also saw the club once again become a glimmering source of pride within the city and community it represents.
But since he left Elland Road in February 2022, there hasn’t been much for Leeds fans to be proud of. In that time, they have played 49 Premier League games and won just 11, staying up on the last day of the 21-22 season under Jesse Marsch and sacking both him and Javi Gracia since then. Now on their fourth manager since Bielsa, Leeds turned to Sam Allardyce with just four games of the season remaining in a desperate bid to escape relegation, a situation made all the more embarrassing by the fact that the club’s owner Andrea Radrizzani said at the start of the season it would be “impossible” for the side to get embroiled in a relegation dogfight so late in the campaign again.
With the club’s fan advisory board branding the season “a humiliating disaster” in a statement that demanded change in the dugout and recruitment department in April, the feeling around Elland Road is at its lowest for some years. But what has brought Leeds to this point? On today’s Explained, we’re going to find out.

You cant expect to stay up when you have the worst CBs in the league. Cooper is physically shot, and Robin Koch has been a quiet disaster ever since Leeds came up. How Leeds didn't see he needed replacing is beyond me
Don't forget Llorente, he has been an awful singing, and thank god he is out on loan.
@@tomw6947 What's tragic is that he's one of Spain's better CBs.
Anyway, the reason why Leeds United didn't get better CBs was entirely because they where unwilling to spend the sums required to obtain them.
struijk is the worst it looks like he has two left feet
@@tomw6947 Llorente wasn't awful at all. Llorente being dropped and sent out on loan was a big factor in us going down. He was always much better than Koch. Koch was more to blame for the heavy defeat at Brentford but Llorente was made a scapegoat and dropped. Leeds fans are so dumb, they don't understand football at all. They run down the best players and talk up the worst.
@@clivet3252 Koch isn't to blame (in general) either. There's only so much you can do when you have Cooper and ayling on each side of you to cover for. Watch any goal scored against us this season and try to find ayling. It's wild how many times he's been caught out of position or just completely left his man.
Radz and Orta struck gold with Bielsa, they rode the gravy train and believed they could build better without him, the 2 of them are chancers and it’s shown, everything Bielsa built for us and rose us from the ashes, the team, the club, the community has all been destroyed.
Couldn’t agree more
Two questions for you as a Leeds Fan.
Bc y’all stayed up last season; do you think it was a good decision to sack Bielsa?
Also; would you have rather gone down last season with Bielsa still as your coach or now like you have without him?
@@jamaljones5647
People forget how injury ravaged our squad was when they sacked Marcelo
At some points of the season we had 8 first 11 players missing
He asked for various signings and wasnt fully backed
Marsch had a relatively easy run in
I’d argue that Bielsa would have also got those results or better to stay up
And I would have definitely rather been relegated with him in charge
Than the shit show our club has become
The man Galvanised our club our city
And they did him dirty
@@chriswatson210 That all makes perfect sense. Thank you. Bielsa and Leeds deserved so much better
@@jamaljones5647Leeds stay at the end only because raphinha and kalvin... After all they are shinking ship
Im from Singapore. I've been supporting LUFC since the days of speed, strachan, Mcallister and Cantona when we won the last Div1 title before it became the premier league. lots of ups and downs thru' the decades but I will continue to stand with them. MOT!
Poor recruitment and not building on that 9th place finish is what's done them.
6 weeks ago they were 1-0 up against Palace, playing brilliantly, 12th place with the best goal difference of the bottom 9. Then they conceded and had a bit of handbags at half time and they've all looked like they've seen a ghost ever since. The overall failure is largely due to boardroom decisions but the recent capitulation that has lead directly to them being where they are now is because the players are such a soft bunch with no fight in them.
No fight? Rasmus would knock you out
Played better under the America chap tbh. (Marsch). Adams injury was huge it seems, but the biggest problem is they did not replace the oft injured front man. They should have sold him when he was hot and got in a younger player, Bamford just is not self motivated enough to stay in shape, he had to stay in shape in the run and gun strategy of Belesima. Hes just never going to put in the hard work himself.
@@MrRondonmon We were dreadful under Marsch.
@@clivet3252 That's just not true, the problem was two fold, you got nervy and fired him when he got you out last year and Adams getting hurt wrecked your midfield advantage in most games. The reason I know I was checking stats, writing them down the other day, as I am a big stat guy. You guys had 57 percentage possession against Brighton and lost 1-0 early on, with 12 chances created to their 7 after beating Wolves and Chelsea. Got a Drew vs. Everton (MY TEAM) with 69 percent poss. and creating 12 chances to 4. Then got beat by Brentford 5-2 with 69 % poss. again and 12 chances created vs. 5 believe it or not. So, the set up was not your problem, bad finishing and bad defending or bad center backs was your problem, Bamford should have been sold and replaced, he was never really that good tbh. Then vs. Arsenal you lose 1-0 with 16 shots to their 9 and 11 chances created to their 7. Marsch set up was fine. He beat Liverpool 2-1 early on. So, he had 17 points in 20 games competing even in games they lost they deserved more at times, now lets COMPARE SCORES, he Beat Liverpool 2-1, lost to Arsenal 1-0, Drew at Newcastle 0-0 and lost to Brighton 1-0 while outplaying them. The new manger(s) they brought in lost to Arsenal 4-1, lost to Liverpool 6-1, lost to Crystal Palace 5-1, lost to Bournemouth 4-1. You guys have been awful, now with Adams out he may have done about the same, but firing him and not getting a real manager was stupid. He was competitive in most games, had a plan, the players were just not scoring, and your center backs are awful. IMHO, if you were nit going to get a real manager you should have stayed with Marsch or whatever his damned name is. Leeds looked great to start the year, then lost games where they were better than the other side. But overall,. he was had Leeds playing much better than you guys thought, go look at all the stats as I have done. I was trying to prove it was a bad hire and he brought in three Americans and that what hurt you, I think he was pretty good tbh. You guys have no finishers, M=Bamford is a lazy lad, under Belsmia he ran, ran, ran (LOL) so he was in shape, he will not stay in shape on his own accord.
I was hoping you guys passed N.F. but now that its us, you or L.C. I have to pull fir you to lose, LOL, just as you will pull for us to lose. I guess Adams may just be that good. He really hurt you when he went down.
@@MrRondonmon he didn't get us out of anything. If we kept playing well and losing under him then that's not a good thing. Are you his agent or something? He was rotten. He coached all the quality out of the players.
49ers ownership would be the best for Leeds. Super deep pockets and very good at management structures.
Im a massive leeds fan and we have been so badly managed its a absolute embarrassment
It all went south when you decided not to do a third season of Take Us Home
#NFFC fan I'm glad you are going down.
@@BaldricksTurnip1 no one cares
Feel for Rutter a bit. Many similarities to Joelinton. He just needs Eddie Howe
he will destroy the championship
@@TheGeneral_LUFC Based on what? He has never "destroyed" in any league.
@Jack O'Toole he's only a kid bro. There's a reason why leeds spent 35m. They obviously saw something. Rutter, joffy and Joesph will score plenty of goals in championship. The kid can play.
Similar to joelinton how? Young strikers from Hoffenheim? No other similarities haha
@@hezlegitimate4165 Similar fee, Hoffenheim, playing for a poor team, no confidence. Just needs Eddie Howe to turn him into a World Class playmaker to play alongside Joelinton imo
Most people don't seem to understand that Bielsa ball has a shelf life and those aren't my words they are Bielsa's. It's very difficult to sustain and maintain that style, it just eventually runs it's course where improvement slows down and results falter because teams work it out. We were in the same position last season under Bielsa, people just like to forget.
Leeds also had a lot of success in lockdown in our first season of the Premier campaign, without crowds Bamford was also scoring consistently because he was fit for longer than ever before.
In a lot of ways we got lucky, we also sold two exceptional players last season in Raphinia and Phillips so I'm not surprised at all that we are in the relegation battle, if anything we deserve to go down.
Why does it have a shelf life?
He's been a manager for over 30 years and was at Leeds for 3 years and they suddenly worked it out?
@@clivet3252 Believe it or not every club is not preparing for every single tactical approach every week, they are prepping for their next opponent and working on a general style they want to play. Not everyone is checking what Bielsa is doing every second when he's coaching in Argentina or whatever other country. He also isn't that prolific and doesn't have much silverware at all. There is a reason he leaves clubs after 2-3 years max consistently.
It has a shelf life because in the beginning as we saw at Leeds improvements are quick but over-time those returns are diminished, either through hitting a quality ceiling with the players he has or other over exerted players with lots of injury's.
He also won't just recruit any old player and it can take months for new additions to even play or train with the first team. One of his requirements is for example playing with the reserves first.
The famous Bielsa shelf life could have been managed with proper succession planning and vision....it could have been done. Bielsa is a genius coach and the ownership should have recognised this and given him a blank cheque - we wouldn't be going down
Great take. As an American(Philly area) we were pulling for you guys. Sad to see ya’s drop. BA was built up massively by local soccer media and the kid is a very good player but PL will expose any weaknesses in an individual. I wish him and Leeds well moving forward. So. SO sick of man city!
Leeds as made rash decisions after rash decisions. Since the start of last season Leeds have failed to address their defense but signed more attacking that are dreadful in most cases and their indecision to sack Marsh after multiple poor runs and their horrible appointment of Gracia as possibly cost them a chance to retain their Premier League status for next season. To say it's chaotic at Leeds right now is an understatement. I feel sorry for the fans, waiting 16 years to return to the Premier League only to possibly lasting 3 years.
Orta. It's all Orta.
Bielsa made a mid table championship squad into a top half prem team. Orta is ICREDIBLY proud, and refused to acknowledge that this was Bielsas achievement, not his, and so ALL of his transfers were focused on the future, rather than acknowledging we are regulation fodder.
Leeds did nothing , the egomaniacal Victor orta did all the damage
Didn’t make rash decisions, if so left it so late as Liverpool result saved Marsch’s tenure at the club for longer. Fault lies at owners allowing a egotistic Dof who has made poor decisions including signings that ain’t good enough. Should have spent on adequate players for now capable of keeping them in the league around mid table starting from the defence. Instead he just signed players with future potential and in areas of the pitch not needed.
If we go down, I wonder who will stay
We got rid of Bielsa far too prematurely wouldn't be in this mess if it wasn't for terrible financial decisions from the top, sacking managers and poor signings. We need to go down and rebuild.
I'm not a Leeds fan but I'm genuinely sorry to see them go down. Leeds is a big important city so to think they no longer have Premier League football there is a real shame. With its catchment area the club should be one of the biggest in the country.
They just seem to personify ‘panic’.
Bielsa’s tenure started drying up, panic and bring in a new manager.
Marsch seemed to be the right manager after keeping them up, but didn’t quite work in 22/23, then panicked again,
Garcia, absolutely awful and I think that’s all that needs to be said so they panicked again and bring in Sam Allardyce.
Seems they they want to put their failures as a club on the head of Marsch and then give Allardyce a near impossible job to deflect their shortcomings.
When you need a goal scorer in Jan to stay up, why spend £40m on prospect who has scored 11 goals in his pro career
But he hasn’t been given a chance though instead Bamford has been given a run in the team even after missing sitter after sitter 🤦🏽♂️ for me he’s part of the reason why Leeds will go down, missed a pen against Arsenal earlier on the season, missed again against Newcastle, missed a sitter against Leicester, it’s endless he’s been atrocious in my opinion to be fair
Because we had a sporting director who believed his own hype.
we actually couldve signed gakpo. orta was a lunatic
he will destroy the championship
Rutter isn't even. Striker. He s a winger
And not a goal scorer. Don't understand what on earth happened there. Same thing in the summer. Try and get several strikers and then get a 18 yr old winger on the last day of the transfer window.
The real problems this season:
After the fast start lots of Leeds fans legit thought they were going to contend for a top 6 spot (just check some of the videos on youtube, their expectation after beating Chelsea are insane.)
Not rebuilding the back like in the winter window - why buy Rutter when you need to spend on defenders??? McKennie was a OK loan for depth, but he was like 70% healthy at the World Cup, what were they really expecting from him?
Marsch realized the defensive problems which is why he had them play in the center of the field, to protect the back line as much as possible.
Why is the championship being reported like a team is dropping into some sub standard division. There is a lot of quality in that league
Because teams lose 50-70% of their revenue by dropping into the Championship, and if you don't bounce back within the first 3 years (where you have parachute payments) there is a pretty high chance you drop further down or go into administration (southampton, shefield united, sunderland, portsmouth, leeds themselves etc etc etc).
Because the gap on finances between the two is vast and can cause serious problems for clubs.
But the money is substandard mate
There is. But the finances that are involved in premier league dwarfs the efl.
@@amituna7903 maybe clubs should spend within their means. This over spending and gambling on promotion only hurts the fans.
Nice one Stuart Dallas , massive gap now between Thomas Franks and Leeds now 😂
It was more about the hapless management of Radz. He didn't stick with his guns when it came to the decision to rebuild in the model Orta envisioned. Marsch was moving along at a point per game clip even with a minimal transfer window last Summer. Then they decide to open their wallets and bring in Wober, McKennie and Rutter in the Winter window but sacked Marsch before he had a chance to do anything with those valuable upgrades. Imagine how he could have improved his trajectory with them. Even still, a point per game gives him 38 points at the end of the season, 2 points clear of Everton on the table.
Instead, they sack JM without a replacement queued up, get stuck with their 5th choice manger after a few weeks in Gracia. Gracia's system didn't match with the assets in place and he struggled until he was inevitably sacked. Then the desperate hire of Big Sam (and yet another new system) only further wore down the team. Of course, McKennie, Wober, Rutter and others struggled in 2023 - all those changes (and the multiple line-up configuration changes within that period) only led to confusion on the pitch for the entire team.
Like him or not, If Leeds kept Marsch until the end of the season, they likely would still be in the Prem.
In August, all the pundits had the team in a relegation battle. That's exactly where they ended up and creating chaos in the locker room with desperate manager changes isn't going to help the situation.
When I were a lad, Leeds were one of the big boys, up there with Liverpool, Arsenal and Spurs, the Revie team of the 70's was one of the best teams in Europe. Although I'm not a Leeds supporter to see them in this position AGAIN! is shocking.
from 1998 to 2003 we had a fantastic team under oleary
Spurs 😂
@@dirtyleeds5852 In the early 1970's Spurs won the league cup twice and were UEFA cup finalists twice, winning it in '72, their second European trophy in a decade. Better than anyone else in Britain at that time. They were considered one of the BIG boys.
Learn some history matey.
@@shoutinghorse go look at Uefa rankings Leeds were twice ranked best team in Europe
@@GordonTredgold Now you're clutching at straws. That's the footballing equivalent of being nominated for the "best kiss" at the Smash Hits awards party.
It's been a car crash in slow motion. If they don't get some better defenders for next season they'll be towards the bottom of the Championship. 80% of the squad has to move on.
Leeds going down is a shock? Really? I didn't expect them to survive last year tbh. And I'd be very shocked if somehow they managed to stay up this year too. I'd actually say they've likely been overachieving up to this point.
when we finished 9th we didnt overachieve, the board didnt back bielsa. we sacked him and have been in freefall ever since. we deserve to go down and tbh i hope we do. we need a rebuild
Just accept the fact Leeds are no longer a big club i don't know why you guys can't accept that stop living in the past.
@@TheGeneral_LUFC you were in freefall under Bielsa as well. You had a good first season and then were rubbish. Nothing the prem hasn't seen many times before
We need to sell pretty much everyone.
Meslier, Firpo, Koch, Cooper, struijk, Kristensen, Harrison, Summerville, Aaronson, Roca, Adams, Mckennie, Bamford, Sinisterra and Rutter are not good enough.
No point building a team next year in the championship with these softies because they will instantly fail in the premiership on return.
The only ones I would keep is Rodrigo (he has fight in him), Wober (Should be our captain) Ayling (as long as we use him from the bench), Gnonto (needs to start every game) Cresswell, Drameh, Joseph and Gyabi (Should all be in the first team - we should build the team around these players)
Overall, we need a manager to choose the players and not rely on a director of football.
Don’t think you’re being at all fair to Harrison, Summerville is the best young talent that we have any hope at retaining, Rutters barely played and we’d take a huge loss and our season was over when adams got injured he’s by far our best player.
I’m a 49ers fan and I support the team buying Leeds United. and if Leeds is bought. they will be able to use NFL prize money, especially if the 49ers is able to win the Super Bowl. and it is possible as the 49ers are favored to win it. and if Kyle, Shanahan and Purdy are able to win it. it could give leads enough money to bounce back up. and the 49ers had a similar problem just without regulation obviously. The ownership group was able to rebuild the 49ers they can probably do the same with Leeds United.
The back line must be addressed. Goals come and go. You need to be able to defend.
They are had a really bad run hope they come back stronger 💪 good video ⚽️
As a leeds fan the thing which has fucked us over is Orta’s ego after fluke gold strikes of bielsa and Gnonto. He had a weird obsession with the Austrian league and only signed attacking players some decent some shit. He’s cost us millions and millions of pounds and finally fucked off not long ago. Go down rebuild come back stronger LUFC.
It all went south when Leeds United decided not to do a third season of Take Us Home
Its always about players. Poor recruitment has killed us.
Doing A Leeds
History Repeats itself
Not at all, Leeds are not in free fall and are not in massive debt. The last time was Champions League football one season, relegation the next.
What I saw over the season they couldn't string games together. Bringing in managers with no proven records is a step backwards. I hope things turn around and they get players who wants to play for the club and not a big pay cheque when things don't work out.
Just watched the movie "Damned United", what a team they were once 😢
It's all Marsch. Apparently the team was "overtraining". That is why they started looking gassed by the end of games early in the season. By the second half they couldn't go longer than 30 minutes.
So basically what you're saying is that Leeds are falling apart again?
Poor ownership, poor management, poor players - what dya expect? After their 1st PL season they lost their best 3 players (1 to injury) and not replaced them. And always have had a lower level defense. This is a Championship side.
We are dire and don't deserve to stay up. The halcyon days of Bielsa seem like a lifetime ago. How can it be that the same Harrison who terrorised the Liverpool defence in Sep 2020 can now barely complete a pass? We were a team that neutrals loved to watch because we were exciting, adventurous and something different. Now we are mundane, predictable and the epitome of mediocrity. We are Burnley without the flair or Beirut without the charm. We are a pale shadow of our recent past and are badly in need of ruthless surgery throughout the Club.
I despise the Board for their callous ineptitude and their arrogant belief that we were too good to go down. Despite a very clear warning, and lucky escape, last season, they followed the same model of blind belief, fuelled by a heady combination of greed and ignorance. The chickens have very much come home to roost and they are chargrilled and riddled with Asian Bird Flu.
The way that the heart and soul has been ripped out of our Club, both on and off the field, should be used as a case study for future academic courses on sports (mis)management.
The Championship is a great division. It is a tough division and is considered by many as being far superior to many European top leagues or divisions.
The squad not only lacks quality but also balance.. Radz and Orta are to blame.. It’s that simple. We 1 left back who quite frankly is crap 🤷🏻♂️ we’ve needed to fill midfield positions for best part of 4 years. The defensive signings have been shocking and to top it all off we’ve only had 1 decent manager since Radz bought the club.. And they didn’t back him! 🤦🏻♂️ I’m glad Orta has gone but the sooner Radz sells up and fks off the better..
Ayling is the weak link in that defence, he's got Trent-Arnold syndrome, loves going forward but can't defend to save his life.
The fact that Stuart Dallas has been out all season through injury has been a massive blow to Leeds
Great servant for us especially under marcelo but too slow now especially after that long lay off, maybe could still do a job for us in the championship
@@jackthelad5366 I used to live beside Stuarty in Coagh , Cookstown , I refereed him in a few games when he was a kid , always thought his brother Marcus was a better player haha
Mind the gap Stuart Dallas ‼️ Thomas Franks 😂
@@nigelbaldwin1038 obsessed
Luke ayling and Patrick Bamford start at that club what can you do
Players just loose that hunger and top teams ravage the club and sign the best players. Scouting the right players is crucial also.
Our boardroom and management have got us into this sling with shocking talentless signings
and the fans and media
After I saw Leeds' players pass their own fans and not stop greeting them, I am happy the team relegated.
A lot of the problems trace back to the lack of squad development in the summer of 20/21. Injuries hit, the team couldn't cope with life in the PL and against the risk of relegation and one pasting too many, the club sacked Bielsa. How long he would have stayed we'll never know but it's been one bad judgement call after another since then leading to the current predicament including the usual off field drama at times like these.
Aged well. It's 1-4 vs Spurs.
They had no spirits to bounce back.
As an American I can blame too many Americans. An American manager who sucked and they brought on American players who sucked. I don’t why they benched the goalie. The replacement is terrible. The defense is Swiss cheese and always gets burned by a cut back. Oh and if there is a worse striker than Bamford I’d be shocked. Guy has an amazing ability to be able to avoid scoring from any position. I think that pitiful penalty crushed Leeds
Bielsa is a legend no doubt, but his football had lots of problems that were already becoming common when he got sacked.
he had to start 9 teenagers, which was a premier league record, he had no striker to speak of and a defense that was poor when Phillips could protect them and terrible when he couldn't play. Bielsa needed backing with quality players and some of those we signed were definitely not that
Bielsa burned the players out , it wasn’t sustainable
@@stevenclarke5606 yes Tyler Adam’s and Sinistera were out for ages - oh wait that was Marsch
They spent years out of the Premiership…not a great surprise they’re getting relegated
What’s the premiership
@@nathanmerchant7696 premiership/premier league it’s changed names and they weren’t in either for years…so it’s still technically correct. Even though you’re splitting hairs…w⚓️
@@nathanmerchant7696 ... its something above your home ... " the Championship"
Stupid logic. 🤦♂
Brighton had never been in it and look at them. Leeds should be a Premier League team but there are too many enemies within.
I think out of all the club in the running for relegation they seem the most sustainable in the championship and could bounce back.
What
A fair assessment. However, it is what it is. Leeds United are going nowhere anytime soon. They'll still be there in the background regardless of what division they play in. Leeds United fans are the antidote to global corporate football. Long may it continue. Marching on together X
Are those cardboard cutouts of fans I see in the seats in the stands in the pics from when they won the championship?
I fear we could get relegated to division 1 unless something drastic happens 😞😞😞
As a Leeds fan I’ll be honest, I really haven’t enjoyed the Premiership as I did the Championship,I know it sounds ridiculous but it really was more exciting to watch. I know financially the Prem is the place to be but to be at the bottom every season fighting for survival is not good and personally I’m pissed off with it. We’re not good enough at this moment in time to be there.
You'll have to wait until you get bought by a sports-washing nation state.
We weren't at the bottom every season. In our first season we went toe to toe with Liverpool and Man City and finished 9th with 59 points, which is usually enough to get you into Europe. The problem at Leeds is no one can hold their nerve. We should have accepted a poor season and ridden it out, instead the knives came out for Bielsa and the doom and gloom started.
@@clivet3252 I know we had a brilliant season first time around but I do feel the empty stadiums helped. The trouble is now like you say the rot has set in. If a miracle happened and we stayed up next season would be the same and it’s got to change from top to bottom.
@@TheEx3rgj did the empty stadiums help other teams who did well or just us?
Clearly just us
Leeds were out of the Prem for nearly 20 years since 2003/4 - this is nothing new.
The lot from top to bottom
Need to be replaced.
They're not P.L material.
Victor Orta.
He took Boro up and back down.
FD is useless.
Only the manager knows what players he wants.
It should be Owner - Manager relationship with no middle man.
Hanging on to cooper who stat wise has the worst goals conceded in the PL.
More of the u23 should have been added to the first team.
And for me they should of gambled on Jesse, every team has a bad patch, the winter world cup ruined Leeds.
Lunatics are runnings the asylum at Leeds. Even Leeds fans grew tired of the chaotic style of play under Bielsa and Marsch, unfortunately it’s been just as chaotic in the boardroom.
Marsch's style was chaotic but Bielsa's wasn't at all. You're showing your ignorance and believing what you're told by the journalists and pundits.
Stop parroting lies you've read.
We'll be back 💙🤍💛
So much potential wasted by Orta / Radz / Kinnear - they thought they knew better than Bielsa. Turns out they didn't, surprise surprise......
What happened to Leeds United is we had an incompetent owner along with an incompetent board with an incompetent manager with a bunch of lousy players, specially our defenders who are non-existent.
BIG SAM WILL SAVE THEM 🤞🙌
Great to see them going down.
They have never been a big club, they are a league 1 club in a league 1 city and have never been worth of the champions league.
Can’t be worth anymore than 80-100M for 56% of the club. 49ers should get out and quick!
150 million is not a bad valuation considering Bournemouth was sold for that amount.
You must be joking
@@BenedictDeLaPays they would be selling a team in the championship for the same price as a premier league team

@@BenedictDeLaPays Where you getting those financial stats from? Dream on! 😆
Glad that s*** is over, now...Priority number one has to be to get rid of Bamford. He alone cost Leeds at least 4 vital points. He's not even a Championship striker. As for the board they didn't learn from the previous season and Leeds have paid dearly for their short sightedness. Also about 4 seasons to fix the striker and left back problems and it was never addressed. How much time did they need? They need to look back and see what worked in the past - A core of older, experienced players surrounded by a wealth of young talent, aka Strachan, McCallister, Speed, Batty. They have the young talent already in the likes of Gnonto (please hang on to him!) and Summerville and call back all the loaners like Gelhardt and Cresswell, players who have some fight and talent. What they now need is to pick up a decent older, experienced striker, midfielder and defender. A striker who can get the ball in the back of the net regularly which is something Bamford fails to do.
West broms downfall needs explanation
I fear for The Albion next season. As for Leeds well I am glad they're down. I am a lone Albion fan in a family full of Leeds fans, so we get to play them again which is massive for me.
"Up The Baggies" 💙🤍💚💛
Football is finished, far too much money it's not a sport its become a business
At least you can play Udders
next season lol
Leeds United need new British owners with an understanding of how run a traditional football club and how to recruit a decent football manager who can ID decent players to sign up and retain. Leeds United should in theory be Yorkshire's No.1 top club and in the top ten of the Premier League and at least chasing a Europa League place. Back in the 1960s and early 1970s Leeds United were true class when men were men and then the FA called in Don Revie for the England job and fecked up Leeds United.
Badly run. No investment. Stupid transfers. We were doomed to go back down
Leeds United are literally a glorified pub team. A team like Huddersfield Town, the Sheffield’s kick them to bits. They’re the real teams in Yorkshire, with real history.
You’re suffering from leeds envy, its just a fact of life leeds will always be yorkshires biggest and best supported team and Yorkshire’s biggest and best city, now get back to your quad bike and round up some sheep 🐑 yer doylem
why do people think the championship is so bad they just going to go straight back up anyway
Leeds will struggle to avoid relegation in the Championship next season.
I got to bo honest, I thought Leeds will stay at PL . Anyway good luck at Championship division
It's not too late to stay up I'm not giving up until Sunday evening
@@tomstorey8559they need alot of permutations for that to occur
i didnt. we deserve to go down
@@DCUEmp_prinzy just have to win and what will be will be
@@TheGeneral_LUFC yes but let's not give up, if we win we can stay up
Get rid of Bielsa is a mistake
Bielsa got us promoted that's all the first part of this season he looked like he had lost the plot we should have got Big Sam in after he left March was useless Gracia was firefighting and big ,Sam has Mission impossible am fed up with the management signing unknowns with 2 goals in 100 starts and they try and convince us they are OK look at the players we could have had but "didn't fit our system" what system ??? We never had one here are a few we should have had
Bowen
Watkins
Mitrovic
Abraham
Barkley
To name a few
We should have built from the back Signed Wober but no one to help him Firpo is a flop as is Koch and Keistensen Coops and Ayling are both past it and Meslier in the last months of the season has been awful making fundemental mistakes
Bamford should have been dropped months ago Gelhardt recalled but only the fans could see the team imploding then we go and blow 35mill on Rutter...madness
Rant over
So L owners L managers yikes.
Bielsa looks like Belichick
Your Dad. 😃😃
None of this is new. T. Everytime they show promise, Wilkinson's League win and O'Leary it nver lasts.hey;ve been making poor decisions ever since Revie
Different managers, different owners and different players and the same stuff happens so you have to look at the fans and the media and the local community.
Biggest mistake any club has ever made was when Leeds sacked Brian Clough.
@@vordman Agree but few want to admit it, his son is a very good manager.
If they stay with Big Sam...sure they are back up soon thats if they dont beat the drop this weekend..everton and the foxes are in way more doom n gloom
brendan rodgers will take over
Oh my goal fd😂
I have been a Leeds fan since 1970, and will always be a Leeds fan, but if you call that training, in this video, I am disgusted, they train and play, rubbish, some remind me of fragile fairies, mention no names, my grandson plays local league football in England, and trains harder, since watching this video I am currently disgusted and disappointed at my team
karma for sacking bielsa. Hope they drop down to League 2
He wanted to leave
I agree they got it wrong! But leeds in the prem is better than having someone like Luton Town.
@@MazePenn ... no he didnt? I was literally at the training ground the day he left, he was in tears.
@@MazePenn Don't talk bullox, he was sacked.
@@CB-xr1eg of course he was sacked..he was going to relegate us. but we should have gone down with him and back up
There's Sunday league clubs run better
probably is
Why is this video insinuating that they were not expected to go down? They havent got any worse, they just havent improved. They will be back, they are too big not to be but they have never been good with their money even when they were the best team in the country and until they improve in that area they will not be competitive in todays game
championship squad at best
Got rid of real life Ted lasso it was bound to end this way 😂
and what wouldve happened if we kept him. one of the worst coaches ive ever seen
Go down. Sell to the 49ers. Rebuild. Come back up in no less than 2 seasons.
We need to have a dialogue about how Americans are destroying Premier League clubs lol.
American owners just see sport as hard-nosed business and fail to understand English football clubs are deeply ingrained into their communities over many generations, they are far far more than just another sports franchise.
GG
Can't keep sacking managers,, plus never hire a manager like big head Sam and expect to stay up.. proper fossil football from him.
When so many people want to be part of it for seft interest that is where it crumbling to the grown it a bad luck , 🤣😅😂😝😛😋🤪😜 I have no club
See ya! 😂😂😂
Leeds ought to go to their direct rivals to weaken their rivals haha
what?
I hear Barnsley FC have some bright young prospects that might interest Leeds for next season.
@@CB-xr1eg buying key players from their direct rivals for relegation; a way to weaken & strengthen the team in a way
There’s still a slim chance we avoid relegation. I’m not losing hip yet. But we should have stayed with marsch.
Leeds getting relegated, you love to see it!
Leeds are going down, haha
Snake
Leeds fans have been unbearable since they've been promoted back to the Premier League. At first, I was happy to see Leeds (the club) return back in the top flight as its a great club with a lot of history. But so many of their current fans have just ruined it with their sense of entitlement and general behaviour. Therefore, sad to say, I hope the club do relegate, disappearing down the leagues again, so they can take this current crop of godawful fans with them. Perhaps, see y'all again in another 20 years time, perhaps they will have humbled a bit more by then and actually be bearable.
Yep, we are awful, singing in your well-curated libraries. I hear too many decibels can damage the softer cheeses in your cheese rooms.
@@gyorkshire257 See ya later, lads. 😆🤣 UTV!!!
@@temporaryuseraccount0012 Ahaha, Villa! I'm so sorry mate.
It's mad how a city like Birmingham can have West Brom, one of the best sets of fans in the country, and Villa, one of the worst. If your fans could sing as loud as they whine, you'd have some atmosphere. Leeds will still be a bigger and better club than Villa when we are in the national league.
You mean real fans? Let the prem go back to the soleless library that most of the clubs are.
@@gyorkshire257 😆🤣😆
American interference
Small club nothing else

@@chris-mc4dg i Don't support Arsenal
Don't think so pal! Leeds are massive club in England
18 in the world for revenue, say it all with only the big 6 ahead of them. If they were run properly bought right players they would be in Europe year on year, fill a 60k stadium easy. It's just gone wrong for them.
Whether in the PL or Championship, Leeds are a huge club
