Could have had 30 at RWB today..I am beginning to think Farke sees him as a winger in which case he's unlikely to see any game time this season

Strujik or Wober must be nearly match fit as Farke has kept Tanaka and Rothwell on.
Amps into midfield, midweek or Gruev?

Was just making a point that any signings are going to have to be top quality if Schmidt can't make the bench.

Derby look to be edging it v SU but they’ve got the goal unfortunately.

If we played this way away from home we'd be 10 points at least further on

why did we buy Schmidt its clear DF does not like what he sees in training
Leeds need to bring in a midfielder who can score goals and a decent number 9 in Jan 2027.
