He will most likely go to Spain, Newcastle have been heavily linked in the last few weeks. We are not ambitious enough to think outside the box. We will be back in for Wilson in January and sack Farke in February!

Quite, but Leeds United have actual scouts and can’t spot any decent players in NL. Tried linking Kerkez to Leeds, he went to Bournemouth (when we were in PL) now Liverpool for £40m.

Mijnans would be good. Smit better, but nobody listens!

In that sense they are super finishers then, yes. Not where are issues are, also Farke doesn’t play with 2 up front so will be of no use to us.

Nope. He plays for my Dutch team and whilst he is excellent at scoring he has exceptional service from the rest of the team (doesn’t have much else to his game) - he won’t get that at Leeds. Also not PL ready.

They were very good between 1997-2010, unfortunately the end coincided with a crash that really had nothing to do with them.

Farke is really going all out to be like Jesse!

No we sacked him too late. He should have gone after the Liverpool win before the World Cup- when Emery was available!

Hopefully just looked at who 49ers spoke to about Rangers. A bit like when Van Bronkhorst was linked mistakenly in the summer!

Alternatively, we could just ditch him.

That is not fair, did you not see he put on Harrison for Gudmundson. If he’d pulled it if he’d have been a genius….

We haven’t, we’ve been trying not to lose. We didn’t try and beat Fulham, happy to get a draw and got nothing. Same at Burnley. Happened today after their equaliser we don’t have any proper attempt and didn’t make changes to effect the game until it was too late. Farke is too negative.

Which makes not trying to win and going for draws even more baffling. Fine to aim for a points per game in the championship where you will win 90% at home with the strongest squad. You can’t rely on winning games at home. You have to try and win certain games.

Still Premier League, big club if a coach can get it right. Should appeal if we had an ownership to sell a vision.

Well he’d try and win games so it would be a start!

That is what Farke tries to do, badly!

Depends how ambitious the 49ers want to be. Cesc would top my list but Leeds need a big name, someone with personality. Mancini? Xavi? Rodgers? All out of work. I’d even take Southgate at this stage!
