LB as a position covered by Douglas and Alioski is fine. especially if we have limited funds for new players, I don't see this as the area of concern.

The side needs fine tuning, not wholesale changes.

Berardi stays !!!!


----------------------------------------------------------------------

Left back has adequate cover.

Right back sless so, and a centre half is a must.

Central midfield we have 4 players, so again, not a major concern.

The final third is worryingly thin and void of quality.

One option I would like to see and I don't know if Bielsa would pursue this.

He talks about doing plan A but doing it better. I would love us to get a striker who scores a fair share of headed goals but has good mobility and could play up top as a loan striker as an option. Am thinking we could face scenarios where we are maybe a goal down and have the guy come off the bench.maybe it could play to Douglas's strengths too getting him up the field in that situation with targeted crosses to the new striker.I also remember an article someone did on getting note goals from set pieces and it could help us there too.

I have basically just described Chris Wood , but someone like that would give us another dimension in games and get the best out of other players behind him

*more goals

All i will say is the current squad does not get in the playoffs.

Berardi i have to agree with. Got away with that red card far too cheaply due to errors from Cooper/Casilla. Ultimately we were level in the tie when the idiot got himself sent off. He may have been fouled but that is irrelevant. He has proven time and time again that he is unreliable and every game he plays you have to be prepared for the fact he could cost you all 3 points. Enough is enough.

I agree, I was stupid enough to think after the start to the season he’d sorted himself out.

Liability, needs to be gone imo.

Don’t know how he’s gotten off the hook for costing us the play offs. Bloke is a liability and an idiot, don’t want him wearing a Leeds shirt again.

Love Berardi.

Bera last year of his contract, he will be looking for a new club in July 2020.

I was impressed with Davis last season. Would happily see him and Wilks get given squad player roles next season.

Bielsa should have taken Berardi off before his red, Orta and Radz stood still in Jan. Casilla and Cooper messed up the 1st and 3rd goals so I blame those ahead of Berardi who had an excellent first leg.
