Just a month ago Leeds fans were demanding Farke be sacked. Heck of a turnaround there. Sunderland remind me of us 2001, keep finding a way.

Hopefully we are taking notes from their summer recruitment strategy.

Sunderland at it again! by Joey_Joe_Joe_Junior 15 Aug 2025 18:27
They have for sure said, let's not try the Ipswich way haven't they, some fees less than we paid as well. So curious to see how they do!

Sunderland, Leeds were already better equipped with the profile of some of their players.

Watching us today and its so obvious how lacking we are in athletes.

We have a real lack of pace in the team Egeli, Nunez and Philogene, none are particularly quick. When Burns came on their left back actually had some work to do. Need to get out of the league but if we do we have to learn from Sunderland.

We’d need at least 8 starters.

They still had more recent Premier League experience than us, and built certain aspects of the club up accordingly.

I said to my son earlier when the game was about to start

We'd switched over from the man city game who wwre also lining up.

But when you look at the size of a majority of prem players.. our players look way off it in regards to physique. It really shows the vast differences in levels.

Reminded me of when we lost i think it was 4 1 to Newcastle many years ago. You watch them walk out and it looked like a senior mens side v u18s.

We would. And real athletes too,with pace and strength. The way we went about it last time was in hindsight a total disaster. I hope our recruitment team are keeping one eye on some real big,fast guys that will cut it in the Premier League.

That's what Leeds have done this season and it seems to be working out ok.
