Yep. They play Leicester and Leeds back to back over Christmas.

Ipswich still to play Leicester and Southampton twice and us away yet.

Great result for us last night, that's 2 poor results for them all in all, shows how important that win v Leicester was, it's put Ipswich under pressure.

Ipswich played Southampton away already, won 1-0. They've Leicester twice and us at Elland Rd to come so it's most deffo game on now. We just need to take it a game at a time, we've some winnable fixtures coming up but as we saw at Stoke and Hull, we can't be complacent with these next 4 or 5 games.

missed Southampton away.
they only have a very small squad too.
still think we'll catch them by end of January. as you say we need to turn up as every game is difficult. as it should be

I think the Leicester win will give us more confidence. Hopefully it will help us cut out these avoidable losses.

Yeah agree and i think hopefully if Spence gets back fit soon that will be another big boost, but he's been out a while so it may take a bit of time. Interesting to see if Gnonto can make an impression over the next few weeks, he's gone of the boil a touch and there's agent talk from Italy already..

If we can find a replacement in January I'd let Gnonto leave if the fee is right, hes clearly not happy and hes not really performing for us.

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Wed Nov 08, 2023 11:06 am  

I agree. £25m he's gone

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Wed Nov 08, 2023 11:11 am  

He'd have to be replaced. only concern for me is if one of Summerville / James gets injured, losing Gnonto could leave us short and i'm not yet fully convinced on J Anthony. He also gives us decent cover at 10 & 9. Can't afford to weaken imo.

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Wed Nov 08, 2023 12:30 pm  

I'd let Gnonto go for the right price and look to replace him with a left footed right winger.

I wouldn`t be surprised if we go back for Amari ?spelling.
And we are interested in a very good Colombian player who is likened to Raphina.
