Marcello came to Leeds United after researching the club and the city. He was attracted to the a club with a passionate fan base. He took us back to what football should be. A game for the working man to enjoy at the weekend. He believed in entertaining. He never spoke about a referee. He told his team to let Villa score at Elland Road. We all had total respect for him. Klopp is similar. Farke is totally different and just can't be compared to a man like Marcello. We would unbelievably lucky to have Bielsa. There will never be another as there will never another Klopp for Liverpool fans
even if slott surpasses klopps success, because klopp gave liverpool their pride back. i know there'll never be another bielsa for leeds, or a klopp for liverpool, partly because of who they are but also partly because of WHEN they came in, when the clubs were in a desperate state. farke and slott have come in when fans have experienced some recent success. it's harder as fans expect more.
@@andrewshenton6541no it’s not. Can you imagine Farke getting Ayling, Dallas, Klich, Phillips, Harrison to playing as well as they did for Bielsa. Farke has had one of the best Championship squads in both of his seasons. Also, Bielsa wasn’t afraid to change things if they weren’t working.
Bielsa took an average squad and turned them into champions. Farke has taken an excellent squad and made them average. Bielsa was a football coach. Farke is a HR manager
I was with some Argentinian lads when Bielsa got sacked, they'd come to Leeds for Bielsa's Leeds and seen his last two matches. They're exactly words were you'll never get over it, football will never be the same again.
The difference between Farke and Bielsa for me is that i believe Farke makes decisions for himself and his reputation while Bielsa did what he thought was required, regardless of how it made him look. Bielsa took responsibility when we lost while Farke diverts attention, almost like hes got half an eye on his next job interview.
Bielsa is god , id take him back under this new ownership structure , it wasn't bielsa that was the issue , his style of play was fantastic , electric , we just needed better players and the owners didn't really have that ambition .
With this squad ATM Farke is just about doing a decent job imo. He’s need to get us in top gear and go on a run of 8-12 wins like we had last season but at this point we’ve been inconsistent and it’s frustrating as fans
We don’t have that affection for Farke because of Bielsa. It wasn’t just his coaching, it was his philosophy on football & life. I like Farke and his style which is just like many other of the current European Coaches. Controlled possession. We are top of the league and would be ahead further if not for individual errors rather than our style of play. Do question some of Farke’s choice and decisions but I did that with Bielsa too. He was just as stubborn.
Issues I have with Daniel Farke: Lack of Accountability ✅️ File Cabinet of Excuses ✅️ Pre-Planned Subs (Seriously, this isn't High School Daniel 😂😂) ✅️ Moments of being Tactically Inept ✅️ Grifting in Press Conferences ✅️ Stubbornness to Tactically make Changes ✅️ a Love Triangle with Bamford & Meslier ✅️
Could not have put it better myself!! I'd add stubbornly sticking to and overplaying favourites as well as being risk averse producing at time very tedious football - but apart from that he's fine 😂🤣
Pretty much spot-on. To his credit he's done well in past summer transfer windows, not so much in winter ones. Doesn't need to do much in what's left of this one. Just grow a pair, sell/drop Meslier, sell Bamford & buy a decent CF. Net outlay would be minimal. I don't hate DF. In fact he isn't a bad coach, just not proactive OR in the same class tactically as most Prem. managers. I'm backing him to take us up but after that, upgrade time.
Your comment is a load of 💩💩💩 Accountability DF always puts his hands up when he gets things wrong he's never put the blame on anyone else Every manager in world football make excuses when there team gets beat DF tactics and style gets the players in the dangerous positions so there's no problem there
Bielsa was the best Leeds manager along with Revie and Wilko and brought the club alive again after years of pain on and of the pitch so a tough task for anyone to replace that if Farke does get us up he will be backed and to be fair he did not get that at Norwich when they were in the Premier League so they was always going to be doomed time will tell if he can cut the mustard at the top tier with backing.
Another thing people don't mention, is that while Farke has a good championship record, he has always had parachute teams. If you was to swap the squads Then i believe Beilsa would have us plenty clear at the top by now with this team..... And Farke would still be mid table with that old Beilsa side.
Bielsa was brilliant, but he is now history. Takes his place with Revie and Wilkinson. But need to focus on current place: we are in a good position now and need to appreciate that.
If we went into the prem going at teams we will get ripped apart every week The way DF has us playing i think that will be the best way to solidify us in the prem
I like Farke. Good job so far BUT Bielsa got us promoted and then 9th first season in the Prem with a very average squad. Lets talk when ANY manager achieves that.
Bielsa effect is defo a thing and will be for a very long time, and agree it's because he changed the culture, he came at the right time and not exactly hard to better coaches who came before him. Farke as you say comes shortly after Bielsa and doesn't make the same connection. Bielsa gave us our pride back, now we have it back, we expect to keep it. I trust Farke to do the job this season. I think he's cool. And he can trap a ball from a great height in front of 30 odd thousand people.
I think the thing is that bielsa turned poor players into a great team. imagine what he would do with the squad we have now. we can talk about his 2 championship promotions but farke has an appalling premiership record and only 2 relegations to show. I dont want him in the prem. he will take us straight back down and blame everyone else but himself
Morning Conor hope your well my take on it is let's all stay on the same side give farke the support to get us up we should be enjoying this coz come may it's celebrating time
Eyup Conor mate, interesting talking points, again I'm broadly with you on these points. In fact I don't feel the need to elaborate or expand, just a small grammatical point which is in no way a personal criticism: you might want to get your fects right (upload title - affect / effect). The one margin note I'll forward in terms of content is the subsidiary issue of the division being weaker than last season. I don't think it necessarily is weaker. I see more teams realistically contending promotion this year, which in a way makes the field stronger. The challenge is the same for all clubs, anyway, and the remit for Leeds remains the same. Testament to Daniel Farke that he's got us top of the pile and I wouldn't want to undermine or derail what he's achieved so far. I don't think it's worth risking a pit stop to replace a capable driver.
Thank you CONOR 👍👌 Love a walkabout video mate ♥️ Where are you walking in this one? looks really nice, doesn't look like where you normally walk around 🤔 Just think what BIELSA would have achieved with last season's side & this season's side 😱 We would have already been in the premiership & building like VILLA & FOREST 😩😫🙏 Why wasn't BIELSA given the players that JESSIE MARCHE was given when he took over, I found that very strange 😫😩😢😥 I would love BIELSA back at LEEDS, definitely feel there was something unfinished & not fulfilled when he got sacked 😤😡😥😢 Always remember everyone, BIELSA's first season in the premiership 👌👍🙏 Pure class 👍👌 Long live BIELSA 🙏
It's Bielsa for younger fans. Older fans can compare Farke with O'Leary, Wilkinson, and Revie. Farke is just a lucky manager who the " Bates 2 boys" believe will lead them to the Prem. They have backed him, supported him, but eventually this relationship will end and " Dan the man" will be long forgotten, like so many others!
Feels as though Farke may be constrained more than we are led to believe by the current ownership, there’s no logic or statistics to back Meslier starting on Sunday.. pure business
Hi Conor, sorry to be a grammar nazi but it's Effect (effect is the noun, affect is the verb) in case you're interested! Great vid (apart from that!!) Oh and nice hair (Bamford inspired?!)
For me , the only way I will accept farke like I did bielsa is if we win the league, and in the next two seasons we finish in a half decent position in the premiership, then I will accept him on bielsa level
Ampadu would of been the ‘4’ in a Bielsa system, like KP was. I saw a Norwich fan on Twitter mention how different Farkes’ playing style is now compared to his time at Norwich in the Championship…(less entertaining) I wonder why? Is it a result of his poor time in the Prem, or his time in the Bundesliga? Is it because there’s more pressure at Leeds? Who knows.. I agree though, his football is far more boring and risk averse compared to his Norwich side, with a far better squad now too…
@@SteveGreenwood-gb7dc KP was very good under Bielsa... Almost like he was a key cog in the England set up etc... Almost like Pep signed him for Man City...
It is a rare occasion when both fans and players have such an affinity for a manager as they did with Bielsa. In my book the board failed to back him and if they had we might still be in the prem. Farke is just not in the same league as Marcello.
bielsa had the smarts but possibly unrealistic expectations . he took a team that was struggling , gave them hope , made them physically fit , made them play interesting , attacking , high press football , but left the backdoors wide open . he had a masterplan but it was unsustainable , he had a squad of about 19 players and after all the covid/injuries stuff was playing with the same 13 ppl every week . took a brilliant set of players and ran them into the ground . he will always be rembered as a great at leeds but we would have had to move on and try other managers eventually , farke's okish but nothing outstanding
Bielsa was lighting in a bottle. It will be another generation before we get a similar connection with another manager, regardless of the results. I think Farke is a good manager and has an ability to churn results, which is not to be underestimated. He also built a squad that thrives on that Leeds United home pressure, not wilt, which is not an easy feat. Plenty of good players could not cope with playing at ER.
we were definately spoiled under MB in terms of the style of football and i, like many many other fans, would still have Bielsa back if we got to the Prem if he became available. Thats nothing against Farke...i think we play great football....but BielsaBall is just so much better to watch for me
Found out isn't an issue. Teams knew what to expect like they did with that Barcelona team. The difference being that Barcelona had such good players, you knew what was coming but couldn't do anything about it. Bielsa had average players who he maxed out. We got tanked by teams who expected to beat us but rarely lost to teams in and around us. He went to the board ( confirmed by Angus kinear) and asked for new players because he had taken the team as far as he could. When you look at his bench the game before he was sacked. It was kids. I firmly believe that if we had given him the players he wanted, things would be very different now.
Hola Conor, for me personally our football is generally dire to watch 🤭 imo DF doesn’t rotate the squad enough, substitutions too late and sometimes the wrong players on/off and his ability to change tactics or formation in-game is non existent?? He might get us up this season but he will definitely not keep us in the Premier League???
Whats going on is we have Meslier in goal. Cost us every season. That's the problem. We'd be absolutely walking this league with almost any other keeper in this League.
FARKE had had success only at Norwich but he was crap in the prem with the team he got promoted. Farkeball doesnt work and why any pub team who can organise a defence has found out. FARKE failed everywhere else he’s been……… FARKE now has the best players, the most wages and best squad in this league but there is no difference this season to last even though this championship season is weaker than last. Bielsa improved his players and got them promoted and in fact Bielsa’s players were not as good but he made them into top players
I like farke and we would blow most teams away if we managed to score from more of the chances we make. Yes some games are a bit boring but even when bielsa was in the championship some fans were still having a go. Can't please everyone I guess
People are way off in the comments here. We literally have the most goals and are top of the league. How can we possibly be boring. Want to know what’s boring? Teams that sit 11 men in their box to try and keep us out which happens in 85-90% of the games. Look at how Ipswich played against us, and that is a Farke system in full flow and in full domination. It’s boring because most other teams make it boring. Bielsa will always be special, and hopefully we are never in a situation where we need someone like him to save us. He gave us hope after nearly two decades out of the Premier League. Before he came we weren’t expecting much, and he gave us everything. Nobody can replicate that because the situation is different. Farke clearly loves this club and I for one still back him. And I do have an affinity towards him and would like him to do well at PL level if we can get there. The sheer hate for Farke is almost unbelievable sometimes. Bielsa spoiled us, and because of that time we have a small but vocal collective of spoilt brat Leeds fans who whinge like a schoolgirl if anything other than a 4-0 victory occurs. Some people need to get a serious grip. We are too expectant. We think all these teams will roll over for us, we FUEL THEIR DESIRE TO BEAT US through our arrogance. Teams sit deep, they play dirty, they play against us in ways they don’t play against most of the other division, and occasionally it has worked. That’s football. Back the team, back the manager, and see where we are at in May because too many people just before we’ve finished, like the transfer window this summer 😂 “oh the board are shit, 49ers out, and then they bring in Ramazani, Tanaka, Rothwell, Solomon, Bogle. Unbelievable signings for this level.
No comparison. Farke is risk adverse. Poor in game management. Tactically rigid. We are top right now, but will we be in May? I'm not convinced, but I really hope I'm wrong. Play offs= Championship next season.
The weakest division and we have top squad and yet only 1 point clear. If it goes wrong again as it did last season I have no faith in Farke sorting it out. Farke must be hurting from last season.
Im just waiting to see whether Schmidt & Darlow will start tonight or DF will stick w. his babies. If he does, sorry but he's not selecting on merit, just habit & bias. MOT.
Why try to create a discussion? They are different in all aspects.. I'll ask all the Leeds fans this, prior to Bielsa coming would you have had Farke ? Get a grip, Farke is unfortunately an scapegoat for all the Bielsa ball.
SMH the squad we had last year was better than that squad lol , the owners only backed him year one , name one other team that happens to and don’t go down look at what Nottingham had to do to get where they are , No manger alive could have kept that squad in the prem we were playing Tyler Roberts ffs 🤦
Does anyone really like farke or farkes “style” of football? I don’t think so. We are comparing two managers, one who could actually coach and another who relies on individual brilliance/skilled players to win games..
No Bielsa is only a problem to the hard up fans that think one championship makes you a top manager and then 9th place in premier league. Yes 9th😂😂😂 .Teams sack managers for that but not us we forget all the thrashingsp 😂😂😂. GET OVER HIM HE WAS AND STILL IS A SECOND RATE MANAGER .Why do no top teams ever come in for him try figure it out
RIGHT, we've now sorted the watchalong on the other channel for tonight:

Maybe a little unfair bud
@@andrewshenton6541Nothing unfair about it a comment that’s totally true imo
Farke proved him self more than once ..now got to do it in premiership..if he ever finishes above 9th .. then he number 1 till then it's bielsa ❤

Farke has had one of the best Championship squads in both of his seasons.
Also, Bielsa wasn’t afraid to change things if they weren’t working.
Bielsa changed our club completely. He’s an absolute legend and I’ll forever be grateful we got to experience such greatness. What a man.
Bielsa took an average squad and turned them into champions. Farke has taken an excellent squad and made them average. Bielsa was a football coach. Farke is a HR manager

Were they two of the games we got absolutely battered?
I don't have the same connection with Farke, I wouldn't be upset if he was to leave or get sacked like I was with Bielsa.
The difference between Farke and Bielsa for me is that i believe Farke makes decisions for himself and his reputation while Bielsa did what he thought was required, regardless of how it made him look.

Spot on mate 👍🏻
it's because of our keeper we are not further ahead of the rest conor he is the sole reason for it.
Well the manager keeps choosing him.
Biesla is a legend and definitely think we need a striker if piroe injured
With this squad ATM Farke is just about doing a decent job imo. He’s need to get us in top gear and go on a run of 8-12 wins like we had last season but at this point we’ve been inconsistent and it’s frustrating as fans
Agree. Given what Farke has available to him I rate him 6/10
Farke isn’t fit to lace Bielsa’s boots Farke is an average coach where Bielsa is a world class manager
Football will never be the same after Bielsa. 😢
God Marcelo will never be forgotten
We don’t have that affection for Farke because of Bielsa. It wasn’t just his coaching, it was his philosophy on football & life.
I like Farke and his style which is just like many other of the current European Coaches. Controlled possession.

Issues I have with Daniel Farke:
Lack of Accountability ✅️
File Cabinet of Excuses ✅️
Pre-Planned Subs (Seriously, this isn't High School Daniel 😂😂) ✅️
Moments of being Tactically Inept ✅️
Grifting in Press Conferences ✅️
Stubbornness to Tactically make Changes ✅️
a Love Triangle with Bamford & Meslier ✅️
Very good way of putting it
Could not have put it better myself!! I'd add stubbornly sticking to and overplaying favourites as well as being risk averse producing at time very tedious football - but apart from that he's fine 😂🤣
Pretty much spot-on. To his credit he's done well in past summer transfer windows, not so much in winter ones. Doesn't need to do much in what's left of this one. Just grow a pair, sell/drop Meslier, sell Bamford & buy a decent CF. Net outlay would be minimal. I don't hate DF. In fact he isn't a bad coach, just not proactive OR in the same class tactically as most Prem. managers. I'm backing him to take us up but after that, upgrade time.
Your comment is a load of 💩💩💩
Accountability DF always puts his hands up when he gets things wrong he's never put the blame on anyone else
Every manager in world football make excuses when there team gets beat
DF tactics and style gets the players in the dangerous positions so there's no problem there
DF is simply backing his player's there's no love triangle you are absolutely talking 💩💩💩💩💩

We need our manager back. Disgrace he was sacked
I like that old saying,absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Im covinced we have best man for the job at this moment in time
Another thing people don't mention, is that while Farke has a good championship record, he has always had parachute teams.
If you was to swap the squads
Then i believe Beilsa would have us plenty clear at the top by now with this team.....
And Farke would still be mid table with that old Beilsa side.
Proper fair, well made points; can't disagree with any of them. MOT
It doesn’t get any more simple
Bielsa was brilliant, but he is now history. Takes his place with Revie and Wilkinson. But need to focus on current place: we are in a good position now and need to appreciate that.
Agree with basically everything u said there.
If we went into the prem going at teams we will get ripped apart every week
The way DF has us playing i think that will be the best way to solidify us in the prem
I like Farke. Good job so far BUT Bielsa got us promoted and then 9th first season in the Prem with a very average squad. Lets talk when ANY manager achieves that.
How would bielsa and 49s have worked out? The potential insane. would it have worked??
Bielsa effect is defo a thing and will be for a very long time, and agree it's because he changed the culture, he came at the right time and not exactly hard to better coaches who came before him.

So we are not going up with MESS-LIER in goal and Farke is responsible for that
I think the thing is that bielsa turned poor players into a great team. imagine what he would do with the squad we have now.
we can talk about his 2 championship promotions but farke has an appalling premiership record and only 2 relegations to show. I dont want him in the prem. he will take us straight back down and blame everyone else but himself

plus we know that the 49ers spoke to Bielsa about trying to get him backbefore we appointed Farke...so that desire ust still be there

When you have a championship team with youth players on the bench it doesn't help

Bielsa spoiled us, and because of that time we have a small but vocal collective of spoilt brat Leeds fans who whinge like a schoolgirl if anything other than a 4-0 victory occurs. Some people need to get a serious grip. We are too expectant. We think all these teams will roll over for us, we FUEL THEIR DESIRE TO BEAT US through our arrogance. Teams sit deep, they play dirty, they play against us in ways they don’t play against most of the other division, and occasionally it has worked. That’s football.
Back the team, back the manager, and see where we are at in May because too many people just before we’ve finished, like the transfer window this summer 😂 “oh the board are shit, 49ers out, and then they bring in Ramazani, Tanaka, Rothwell, Solomon, Bogle. Unbelievable signings for this level.
Farker and 49ers equals another disappointing end of the season. I do hope I'm wrong. Time will tell. ALAW. Dam, good show as usual.
Bielsa is the past now let's have something better to talk about conor instead of this shit !!🤬
Agree
said before, is recruitment responsible for our success? for sure
Bielsa is the problem for the next 100 mangers not just Farke
No comparison. Farke is risk adverse. Poor in game management. Tactically rigid. We are top right now, but will we be in May? I'm not convinced, but I really hope I'm wrong. Play offs= Championship next season.
The fans who still believe it was correct to sack Bielsa make me laugh.
The weakest division and we have top squad and yet only 1 point clear. If it goes wrong again as it did last season I have no faith in Farke sorting it out. Farke must be hurting from last season.
Farke is the 3rd or 4th manager since Bielsa…
Farke failed under pressure last season, he shouldn't be here. Leeds United are Farke F.C., now.
Im just waiting to see whether Schmidt & Darlow will start tonight or DF will stick w. his babies. If he does, sorry but he's not selecting on merit, just habit & bias. MOT.
For me farke blind he sees a certain age . What point of having youth when farke won't play them and get rid of them
Why try to create a discussion? They are different in all aspects.. I'll ask all the Leeds fans this, prior to Bielsa coming would you have had Farke ? Get a grip, Farke is unfortunately an scapegoat for all the Bielsa ball.
SMH the squad we had last year was better than that squad lol , the owners only backed him year one , name one other team that happens to and don’t go down look at what Nottingham had to do to get where they are , No manger alive could have kept that squad in the prem we were playing Tyler Roberts ffs 🤦
Bielsa substitutions not good kept bringing roberts on
Does anyone really like farke or farkes “style” of football? I don’t think so. We are comparing two managers, one who could actually coach and another who relies on individual brilliance/skilled players to win games..
Yeah but look at what KLOPPE ACHIEVED
Effect
we should be way out ahead, farke isnt getting the most out of our players ! his subs are awful and he's tactically inept !
Yes his game management is poor
No Bielsa is only a problem to the hard up fans that think one championship makes you a top manager and then 9th place in premier league. Yes 9th😂😂😂 .Teams sack managers for that but not us we forget all the thrashingsp 😂😂😂. GET OVER HIM HE WAS AND STILL IS A SECOND RATE MANAGER .Why do no top teams ever come in for him try figure it out
