@ThomasWilson04 I want to see more quality in the starting 11 and actually have some natural alternatives for starters as depth. Not expecting us to give Farke loads of different profiles to come up with different plans. We have 1 left back and rely too much on Okafor for attacking quality.
@RyanThomasMMA Got the chance in the Chelsea game and got a run at the end of the season when Kamara got dropped. Regardless he had enough of Farke's trust to get 44 starts (40 in the league) in his first professional season. Plenty of fair stuff to moan about re Gnonto/Largie/Joseph though.
@RyanThomasMMA Yeah that's bad faith, the reason he got pushed to RB was Ayling not being good enough. If Gray didn't have Farke's trust in midfield we'd have rushed to sign players like Kamara and Gruev instead of waiting for deadline day.
@leedsthat Saying he's calling the board is creating a narrative that he thinks they've done something wrong. The truth is they've just not had the talks yet so he can't speak for them on what their ambitions are. All he's done is answer a question honestly.
The response to today's presser is ridiculous, Farke was asked if we can be more ambitious than just aiming for survival after this season's performances and answered honestly.
The board he's apparently calling out have said they want to make the club one of the best in Europe.
Daniel Farke has fronted up for the 49ers at every turn - when we had to sell our best players, when we won the title off the back of it, when we came up short on attacking threat last window.
Now he's doing Leeds fans a service by calling the owners out in public: give us a plan to push on from here.
He's totally right. We don't want to be gurgling round the plughole every season.
Farke is the right man for Leeds United right now. #lufc
@leedsthat He's publicly saying he wants to stay and push the club on that's all. You're pushing a narrative that he's got an issue with how the club are acting when the reality is he's consistently said stuff like contracts should wait for seasons to be done.
@leedsthat Except he's not said the owners have told him they don't want to act with the same ambition so he's not calling anything out, just saying his aims.
@leedsthat Saying he's calling them out makes out he's saying they aren't acting with ambition. They've consistently spent as much as we can within the rules, worked to get as much revenue as we can and publicly said they want to push on.

Leeds Chairman Paraag Marathe says he doesn't think about the commercial side of things, he cares about making the club as successful on the pitch as they can be.
@leedsnoinfidel Main thing they've got wrong is they've not treated all the holding across the box as one incident. It's a foul on Raya but there's so much going on before that it's not clear & obvious what the first foul was so go with the original decision of goal.
@AdamLSXI Rodrigo missed 2 games of Marsch's 20 games that season and Adams missed 2 playing every minute of the rest. Sinisterra there's a bit of a case but his 2 g/a in 11 for Marsch isn't that impressive.
Fans should stop talking about him but we don't need to pretend he was good.
@ThomasWilson04 The two biggest personalities to play under Farke were Georgi and Cree who he overplayed if anything. Elliott's meant to train well too which is probably the bigger issue for Farke and he puts in work off the ball and looks after it well in possession so wouldn't expect issues.
@MOTweets1919@JackLUFC1919 World Cup year so most should be fine compared to other clubs' players. Gabi, DCL, Stach, Okafor and Aaronson are the ones to worry about for that but those are all positions we should be looking to strengthen anyway so they should have a lighter load.
