This isn't like last time we got relegated. People said that squad was broken, that the system needed completely changing and all that, but the reality was we had a top Championship squad and a great chance of bouncing straight back. This time, with all the players out of contract, I think it's...

He's generally been good other than that time he kneecapped someone.

His confidence looks completely shot and we're presumably hoping he'll play his way back to form, because we're stuck with him while Davies/Wes are off in the summer. You can see that his defenders are getting annoyed by him now though.

I said we should have signed Messi in 2003, me.

He's improved us, certainly. We've got from being worse than Derby shit to just really shit.

I think we're officially in the "chucking shit at the wall and seeing what sticks" period of the season.

I find it strange how people want to give Prince Abdullah sole credit for promotions that happened while he was a co-owner. "He got us to the Premier League twice"? McCabe gets the blame for selling our best young players like DCL, Adams, Brooks etc but Prince gets the credit for the promotion...

Last time we played Arsenal, we started with a back 4. We lost 5-0.

He's clearly improved us overall. There is a possibility we might not even finish bottom. If that happens, he's massively overachieved. We have the worst squad in the league. The reality is, we aren't getting anyone better. Nobody is going to want to come here and work for this owner...

Last time we played Luton we started with a back four and really struggled. We switched to 3 at the back and were dominant, and should have won the game. Pretty much everyone agreed that we got the initial selection wrong. So if Wilder picks a back 3 from the start people on here will get mad at...

0-0. I'm watching it on the Leeds YouTube channel rather than ours. The camera is better and they have the score/time in the top corner.

This is PorkTalk level of delusional.

We played with a back 3 at Villa Park and got a result. We played 4 at the back at Palace and everybody was complaining about how bad we looked defensively. The formation isn't really the issue. We just don't have the quality, the athleticism or the self-belief.

At least he kicks somebody occasionally.

GLTTL. One of the best signings in the history of the club.

Godfrey is the best one, but he's also by far the least likely to happen.

Couldn't you have posted this in your other shit thread?

Playing Foderingham or Grbic isn't the difference between staying up or not. That ship has long since sailed. It makes sense to play the guy who will actually be here next season, I guess. We know Wes isn't really good enough long-term. At least with Grbic the jury is still out.

He (like Wes and several others) is absolutely fine to be what we bought him to be - cheap, experienced back-up at the highest level and a potential regular at the level below. If they're starting every week in the PL, you're in bother.

Why are the anti-Wilder crowd so obsessed with his back door? All a bit bunny boiler.

You think Wilder is picking players bought by his predecessor because of pride? He's picking them because, in most cases, there is nobody else. If we drop Anel, Trusty and Robbo, who are we playing at CB? Wes?

The usual stuff - lots of effort, not much quality.

Which formation is the wrong one? Who are the good alternatives? And what is the obvious strength that we've been ignoring?

When's Wednesday's North Stand getting knocked down?

He's a twat. I remember after that Spurs-Chelsea game that decided the title a few years ago (when Leicester won it), he came out with some guff about how his "gameplan" was to allow Spurs to self-destruct. He admitted that he didn't send off a Spurs player because he didn't want to get the...

Wes is great for what we bought him to be - cheap, experienced back-up at the highest level and a potential weekly starter at the level below. A team that had serious ambitions of staying up would have been looking for a new #1 in the summer, but we didn't, so we weren't.

It annoyed me. It also annoyed me when, with 20 seconds to go, we didn't let Robinson launch a long throw into the box.

At least there was some coherence and organisation. We looked like a team that actually does something in training.

Will Koos Bekker be watching from the stands?

GLTTL. I wish him and McCall well. He sensibly built on the foundations that Wilder had left (rather trying to blow the whole thing up like Slav) and did well working with the circus upstairs. He was dropped in it badly by the club this summer and this season is more on the board than on him...
