We go into the Ipswich game having taken one point from six available - not great.

Yup. People will be wanting him replaced with Bamfraud next :roll:

I do confess, I look forward to the day when we are not bringing Bamford on as the first attacking option. There are very few goals on that bench and people are always crying out for substitutions.

We are short of better options, despite having Ronaldo on the bench. Well we need to beat Ipswich, that goes without saying and hopefully pick up some players in January window which Farke can rely upon to deliver more consistency.

I think he connected with the defenders boot and ball

Yes. But the defender really celebrated it suggesting a block but ah well. You need Summerville on the end of it really. Super cool in those scenarios

He did enough to stop James getting a proper connection. So he did defend it pretty well.

It is often the case that the best chances fall to the wrong players. James works tirelessly but he still frustrates me every game. Whilst he has made some important goal contributions this season he is so wasteful at times and it is that inconsistency which has blighted his career, in terms of being a top premiership player.

Bringing Bamford on and Gelhardt to some degree is a complete waste of time !

Is me or is it groundhog day ? Piroe and Rutter clearly are going through a lean spell and frankly although I like both, Cant hit a barn door with a shovel at the moment.
And yet they both get picked continuously . The definition of madness is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
Farke brings on Gelhardt with a full five minutes to go.! Plenty of time to make a difference there then, not.
same old leeds problem developing. cant convert Possession into goals. And I know this will sound a bit radical to our coaching staff but why not try something different. Get Gnonto on with Gelhardt Greenwood. lets face it they cant do any worse at the moment.

Our number one go to sub for a goal hasn't scored in 8 months and has missed two penalties in that time. Great logic :roll:

Gnonto needs more than 10 mins, as his value is plummeting with every game.

I bet Piroe wouldn't have scored so many goals for Swansea if he'd been playing centre half :evil:

Exactly and the fact we don't have his type of player sticks out like a sore thumb.

After being banned for life on here he did the next best thing. Turned in to a horse.
I was at Donny races today and quite fancied that horse but couldn't bring myself to back it because of the name, then the fecker pops in at 14/1. He is still pissing me off! 🤣

Outside lord farquaads starting 11 including gononto there isn't much quality on the bench. And we will probably buy no fucker in January and get the likes of f**king aaronson back and a few others that have gone out to the try before ypu buy clubs. What a load of shite as nan would say

I would’ve 100% backed that if at the races today. Didn’t see it till I turned the tv on and it was nearly over. It’s actually spelt Geromino & not Geronimo.
He wasn’t the brightest 😁

To be honest mate you do quite well without having to quote your nan.

We just have to wait and see what happens, the problem with the next window is finding the right players at the right price. It is by no means an easy task. If Aaronsson does return I personally hope he can offer something. We need some inspiration in certain games and that is in short supply off the bench.

We can't afford to ignore Aaronson if he comes back. His value has already plummeted to a fraction of what we spent, it wouldn't make sense for us to leave him out for another 3 years. If we want him to at least get a decent fee, he has to be involved.
