We started a Substack yesterday. I kicked off with another moan about Daniel Farke. Enjoy it open.substack.com/pub/adamls…

If/when Gnonto goes, our youngest first team player will be Brenden Aaronson. Who is himself in the last year of his deal. Aged 25 - meanwhile we can’t even give a young player of the year award. I’m sure this will be fine though
Young player of the year: 18/19 Jack Clarke 19/20 Ben White 20/21 Illan Meslier 21/22 Joffy 22/23 Cry Summerville 23/24 Archie Gray 24/25 Willy Gnonto 25/26 No award First time since its inception that there was no award for young player of the year

Claim you’re ambitious as much as you like. This is not an ambitious selection, especially at home and especially when you’re already safe

Just ask yourselves, these players that you think farke has developed, is it just that they were signed as first team players and he’s played them? And the examples of players he didn’t use that have since left, how many have gone on to show some real quality? 1/2

Joseph, gelhardt, ramazani, Schmidt, even djed spence, and now gnonto… were all of these players used perfectly when they were at Leeds? Buonanotte, who many thought would be a great addition, hasn’t been seen. Is this the record of somebody who is great with the kids?

Still a bit perplexed about DF saying he has added value to youth. All depends on perspective, I guess. From my point of view it appears he's taking all the credit for the sales of Rutter, Cry and Gray. When you actually dig into it objectively...

Reading the answers from the press conference, maybe somebody should remind Daniel Farke he was about 45 minutes away from losing his job halfway through this season

Never mind then - James at wing back is one I’d like to see, mainly cause it could be either genius or terrible. Gnonto man…
So with us staying up what’s the chances of cutting loose and playing the most fun team farke can think of? Maybe even a 4-3-3?

Yeah but… none of that is incorrect? He managed winning teams before he came to Leeds, and we’d have stayed up if any of his better players stayed halfway fit - sinisterra, Rodrigo, Adams were all fucked We’re alright, it was ages ago now… move on. Was hardly Gracia was he
🇺🇸 🗣️ SPOOFER! 🇺🇸 🗣️ Jesse Marsch has been making excuses about his time at #LUFC...AGAIN! And we talked about it in today's Propaganda, out now.

This Burnley team are prodigiously bad. What were any of you panicking about in the week?

I think when you start disagreeing with people who say it’s a bad idea to take a loss on Ramazani, and try to start a dogpile with your double digit follower account, maybe the gimmick is dead

This season is really showing a lot of people up for the agenda driven fools they always were. Some of you who still can’t see it with Struijk and are still being kind on piroe, should never be taken seriously, by anybody, on anything football related, maybe ever
Downloaded this today and I may have had enough already, how is an average rating ever going to be accurate when you have genuine imbeciles like Gilly saying struijk was the worst player on the entire pitch today, including piroe🤣 Warra podcast

Pascal has been so good all season I think it’s the reason boocker deleted his account

Struijk has won 4/4 aerial duels, 2/2 ground duels, and completed 100% of his passes. He’s also managed 8 headed clearances and 9 clearances in general on top of that. The idea that this guy is ever bullied is laughable. The lies told about this guy, man

As well as Daniel’s done, I think there’s a number of coaches we could have got at the time who could have achieved similar with the squads he’s had available Not sure there’s many in the game who could have done what Marcelo did
Just a quick one for you all on this lovely Monday The better Leeds manager?
