Daniel rightly pointed out that Greenwood has disappeared from our manager’s selected teams, and others also have talked about our dissatisfied youngsters being overlooked while the regulars fail to perform, time and again. Now, if we don’t win against Leicester there are very few winable games left, and we’ll be relegated - and while losing our socalled stars (!), I would worry more that Gelhardt, Greenwood, Drameh, Cresswell and others will even want to play for us. They should all have had a regular chance a long time ago.

Nothing to report on Drameh 2nd half apart from a cracking pair of thighs.... 😲
Bit disappointing as Cody hardly touched the ball....
Put in one cross under no pressure....
Defended well by getting his body in between player and ball....
Let an easy ball roll under his foot for the opposition throw....
Nothing to report and a 5.5/10 but will surely get the ball more with Luton chasing the game....
Howson looking very comfortable as a sweeper though....
For anyone wanting to see Cody Drameh first hand, he'll be starting at RB yet again for the mighty Hatters v Boro at 8pm on Sky Sports.... I'll be on Codywatchgate and report back later
We have loads of good kids. Time for management to give them proper game time and for them to take it.
Joseph is a modern proper No9, Perkins a proper No10/No9, Gray and Gyabi proper No6s/N08s, Joffy a proper second striker, Drameh our best RB, Bate is better than Roja, Cresswell a proper No5, Greenwood a proper No8/No10 and Van de Heuval look better than Meslier, Hjelde is ready at CB or LB.
Problem is you cannot put them all in now.
Preseason matters
Get rid of some "stars" - Meslier, Llorente, Ayling, Rasmus, Aaronsen, McKennie, Rodrigo, Roja, Firpo, Costa, James and some others and rebuild
Keep the kids and have faith
and perkins and archie gray both scored for our u21's yesterday in their 3-1 win. Another two players that might just pack their bags and head off to the likes of Cardiff, QPR, or Brum
So Cody Dremah will give the club a 2 finger salute come seasons end as he has now performed well on 2 championship loans ( both saw him need 3 games to settle which he was not allowed to have here at Leeds.). The decision to give Ayling a extra year basically told Dremah your free to go.
Not all the youngsters are ready for full time first team play but a stint of 60 to 80 minute games back to back to back would have seen them ready alot faster.
We should have kept Gelhardt rather than buy Rutter. I don't understand why we bought Kristensen since we have Drameh. Jamie Shackleton must surely have been a better prospect than Roca. Cresswell and Bate (until he got injured) were pulling up trees in the championship. Perkins has a senior goal to his name already. And Greenwood, JM's first choice sub seems to be persona non gratia. Meanwhile the u21 keeps on winning.
I can see them all gone stay up or not we have to pay for big kev and the gamble on Willy sinesteri will fail as their advisors will move them on at a nock down fee
