No suprises there.

T’was ever thus.

Screwed now.

Unfortunately, the game went as I thought it would. Across the 3 games we've been 2nd best and made Adam Armstrong look like Antoine Griezman in every game. We weren't brave enough in the final 3rd

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Sun May 26, 2024 6:17 pm  

game of 2 chances. they took theres.
too many didn't show up. gnonto and rutter at least tried
summerville was a disgrace

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Sun May 26, 2024 6:53 pm  

Don’t really see how. Southampton had all the proper chances, or most of them.

Game of quite a few Southampton chances, of which one they converted.

They were far superior in the final 3rd, cutting, clinical. We were tentative, scared to cross the ball, never looking for the forward pass.

Such a typical ‘big game’ performance. I’m absolutely pig sick of watching those type performances in playoffs.

Weeker squad next year, stuck now.

Dominated the game but had no composure in the final third of the pitch. Gnonto Summerville Rutter were poor in and around their box. Piroe got no ball, but also didn’t occupy defenders enough. No runners form midfield. James was excellent when he came on. Gray had an off day. We’re a young team and it showed again today when the pressure ramped up

Summerville and Gnonto will be sold should get big profit for those two. Rutter won’t be as no profit will be made. Key is now is lining up their replacements, keeping Rodon and Roberts. Need more experience at 10 with someone who can chip in with goals and has a calm head around the penalty area. Need to add goals in that midfield.

90 points says Farke deserves another shot, any other year and that’s auto promotion. Gets a full pre season this time and tweaks the squad. Parachute payments will still help us have a very good squad. Fsrke has to deliver promotion this time though. This needs to be used as motivation.

if you buy a 10, possibly chair, where does rutter play? wide left? the majority will still be here. with the right additions and a full pre season I think we will be stronger next year.
as good as summerville is he isnt a team player. I wont be sorry to lose him for £35-£40M

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Sun May 26, 2024 10:34 pm  

Chair would be a good buy. It just gives us more flexibility and options. We have no real alternative to Rutter there. Rutter could be used out wide, he’d be useful there and that’s where he starred in Germany

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Mon May 27, 2024 12:56 am  

Chair will likely be going to prison, he won't be available.

Finally got on here after the HTTP 500 error kept me off for a day.
Agree with Trebor that Summerville, Gnonto and Rutter were poor along with Piroe who didn`t get in the game.
Rodon probably the only one who really stood out and had he passed to Piroe when he was in the box I think we go on to win that game.
James unlucky and added the pace we lacked all game.
Whilst we had what 70+ possession most of it was from passing sideways or backwards as once again Southampton got the tactics right and our form against Norwich deserted us.
I would try and get Roberts and Rodon signed up first and foremost and look for a McLean type midfielder.
Summerville needs moving on and so does Gnonto.
We need to start making our signings early and get them all together pre season.
We missed out on promotion dues to our failings in the last 9 games and it was always going to be difficult the way Southampton play in a one off game.

Out with a whimper. Shame……
