@chris_walton21 I do agree with steady progress up the PL. It will be interesting to see if Farke's new contract is agreed over this international break.

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

There already seems to be an awful lot of resignation from some Leeds fans about the future of Tarik Muharemovic. But bearing in mind he signed a 5-year contract this summer, we should demand an absolutely ginormous fee if we allow him to leave.#lufc

@chris_walton21 I'm delighted with the present. I just don't forget the past. I'm always wary. I know the potential of Leeds United. I just get annoyed if various owners screw things up for us.

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

@jonro1465 Hope you're right. I'm not sure yet. But we'll find out over the next few years. I think recruitment (by & large) has been good. But let's just say American ownership in the PL has not been overwhelmingly impressive.

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

@jonro1465 Let's see if it happens. We're not used to owners using foresight.😉😊

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

@chris_walton21 Of course. We had terrible owners for about 20 years. As I told everybody. But there were lots of Ridsdale, Bates, GFH, Cellino fan-boys around at the time. Some folk are just a bit slow to cotton on.😉😊

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

@chris_walton21 I understand that & I accept it. Though of course we are a much bigger football club than Brighton. What has depressed me is that talk has quickly changed over the last few weeks from "he'll be with us for a couple of seasons" to "he'll be off next summer".

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

@punkrabbit It's like they have nothing better to do. The miserabilists. They should buy tickets for a Morrissey gig & stop depressing the rest of us.😉😁

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

@Leedsfan75 I know what you are saying. I think the air of negativity/resignation from some Leeds fans had got to me. As though it was inevitable. As though they were waving goodbye already. It is November & Tarik has so far played 10 PL games for us.🤦‍♂️I just wanted to enjoy the present.😊

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

@leejames665 I think he'll want European football over the next few seasons. Just my opinion. So we need to progress as a club. Climb up that PL table over the next few years.

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

@punkrabbit Don't think he'll push for it - doesn't seem that sort of character - but that is surely his ambition.

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

@punkrabbit At some point I think he will want to play European football (Champions League ideally). So it depends where we are in 1 or 2 years time. That's just my opinion. Don't think he has played in the Champions League/Europa League/Conference League yet.

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

@Leedsfan75 Got more negative in the space of a few weeks though. It's gone from "he'll only be with us for a couple of seasons" to "he'll be off next summer". That's what I find a bit depressing. That air of resignation. Of giving up already. As though LUFC is a club that doesn't matter.

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

@PhilThumbs Really enjoyable day that one. I certainly didn't go expecting a 4-0 Leeds victory! Doesn't happen very often in away fixtures!

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

@ProfessorYello2 I agree that is the sort of large fee we should be looking for if we decide to sell. But I hope that time is still a long way off. I'd hope to keep him for at least a couple of seasons. Any fee received should be reinvested in signing 2 or 3 new players.

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

@clarabowlover I'm realistic but the air of negativity/fatalism from some Leeds fans sometimes depresses me. Within the space of a few weeks the talk has already changed from "we'll keep him for a couple of seasons" to "he'll be off next summer".🤦‍♂️

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

@mou19645 Oh I agree. But after all those years in the Championship & League 1, I'm pleased we're back where (I think) we should be. The lower leagues have novelty value for a while, but that soon wears off. (Or it did for me). I was embarrassed/ashamed we were down there.

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

International break is a time to reflect & take stock. No club has a divine right to be in the PL, but always thought a club the size & stature of LUFC should be competing in the top half of the PL. Now we're finally here, I think it's bloody fantastic.😉😊#lufc

[Stuart Grant @dcmaok]

DCL has also said he likes playing alongside another striker at Leeds.😉
