http://www.football-league.co.uk/page/DivisionalScorers/0,,10794~20117,00.html He would have been better coming back to Leeds where he knows where the net is. Poor stats this season and might as well be used for the cup runs nowadays.

Oh yeah, I forgot that you are buying your way out of the championship. Not quite going to plan yet is it??!!! Leeds are higher than you and have been all season and we are crap and have spent sweet F.A. Just goes to show what you can get for nothing.:icon_wink

Is he? I dont think he is. Probably a better footballer but as for clinical finishing and pace Beckford is better surely. He hasn't been used properly in the Leicester team.

Why are you buying another striker? Beckford sat on the bench taking a big wage? Dont get it.. Billy Sharp isnt better than Beckford.

HI. What's the latest with him? I noticed he hasn't featured much at all. A mate who is a Leicester fan told me Leeds can have him back which I found a strange comment. Our strikers(Mc Cormack,Becchio) are well off form and we are struggling to find the net at the moment so I think we would have...

I had a feeling he would struggle with his overall gameplay in this league. Yes he did score 8 goals for Everton but when fans get on his back he has a bad attitude that refelcts his game.As you know I made the other thread on him and some didn't really want to listen to me even though ive seen...

So whats the latest with Beckford? All I heard was that he was taken off due to his approach to the game, that's all I heard on SSN. If this is true then he definately is not the same player. Having said that Ive said all along that Sven never used him properly and that your new manager whoever...

Erm he came on for the last half an hour.!!! Either he is lacking confidence or he is not getting used right but he looks a shadow of himself lately. Beckford would never normally try to score from so far out (when he hoofed it over) and ive watched him for 3 years in a Leeds shirt. There's...

Well this was wrote over a month ago and he still hasn't scored (where as McCormack has scored another 3-4). Well Ill be watching the game today so he really should now be getting on the score sheet this aft.

Well yeah our defence is woeful but as I mentioned before it's not because the players are crap but they are individually capable of being better than what they are. Grayson said it was their negative mindset which in a way is true. The jury is still out with the Leeds fans whether we should...

And your point is? leeds got a draw at Westham and Brighton away this season considering that we will be lower table fodder.. Southampton looked a class apart that's why I'm sure they will do well. You looked poor yesterday that's all i'm saying but you are sure you will climb the table no...

Yes you are expected to finish above Leeds the amount of cash you have spent but your ambition isn't to finish above Leeds its to get out of this league and what I saw yesterday you don't look like contenders (to say you have made an improvment) I will eat MY hat if you finish above...

Leeds are woeful in defence although saying the that the defenders we have on our books shouldn't be leaking as many goals as we have done. Im not denying that and Ive never said we will do well. Leicester should finish above Leeds this season and Leeds will only be contenders if they stop...

Im not writing anyone off but you must agree you probably expected a better start. There is a long way to go and its all about how patient your rich owners are with Sven.

Exactly. I just wondered how he was doing. I only saw him today and was surprised he wasn't on the score sheet already.

Sorry, Yes.!!

Tin pot squad that's one point behind the ones that spent millions this season. Well Leeds have had our first back to back wins since Gradel has gone and we haven't lost so probably coping well. No one can make predictions and say Leeds WILL plummet and Leicester WILL win the league. I...

Lol, Ok!!! It is September your right but it's a tough league and the ones right up there are gonna take some knocking off. Your owners would have wanted a good start to the season considering what was spent and you have a tough game against Derby. There is more pressure on big spending teams...

Pens and free kicks. Either way he is scoring more per games then your £4m signing. Maybe Sven's fault who knows but you are probably the biggest spenders in this league and your only a point above Leeds and you didn't look very good today. Leeds are probably expected to be where they are...

Last season he rarely started and when he did play Grayson had him as a lone striker.(Grayson's fault) He hasn't got the pace to be a lone striker. Like I said earlier I never said he had pace. When he is alongside someone like he is this season he plays well.

I remember a certain few on here saying the same thing about Max Gradel when Leeds bought him and the fact he will impress then go missing. That never happened and he became a better player. Ross is on form, scoring for fun and playing well. 'If' he falls by the wayside and starts to stutter...

Not really! A couple of seasons ago he scored 22 league goals for Cardiff who also had good strikers on the books and this season 8 league goals in 8 games and is now the main man. He is not over rated for this league. Don't forget he has only just 25 years old. Surprised you think i'm over...

How is Beckford getting on at Leicester? Quite surprised to see he hasn't scored yet but I did watch the game today and he didn't get the delivery that he likes to feed from. Not sure if Sven needs to shift things around a bit but Beckford won't create much himself and will wait on that...

Beckford moved up 2 divisions. He was out of his depth with his overall performance in the prem. Ok he might have been top scorer (that's with cup runs) but if he was actually better than the strikers that were already at the club he would have been touted by other clubs in the Premiership but...

Well happy days then.!!

Well if that's all you got to contribute then go ahead. I don't tend to go over my posts with a fine tooth comb to correct minor mistakes due to typing fast.:icon_razz Gradel did play in the same team as Beckford. I'm sure we can all remember the unforgettable Gradel red card and tantrum on...

What makes you say that? Because you have spent millions does that automatically guarantee sucess? Look at the squad Cardiff had and money they had spent to get them out of the league and it failed. Spending a lot of money on new players that have been put together for the first time puts huge...

Why should I be jealous. Im giving you my view after seeing him play for 3 years. You haven't seen him really play like I did. The players I mentioned notched up less than half the goals they did when they were in lg1. All I'm saying is Beckford isn't a team player which is all good and well...

Well I think all in all that was good business for Everton. As a league one player you can't deny his goals,however his all round play has always been quesionable and its obvious his step up from league one was too big. From a Leeds point of view our team going forward strengthened when Beckford...

I don't think anyone would question this deal and make a big thing of it if he didn't carry the name Schmeichel. If he was called Kasper Junker for example then no one really would make so much of a song and dance about it. Looking on the Leeds board I think some of the fans are beginning to...

I think he needs work but he has deffo potential and he is very young for a keeper. Also comes from good stock, this is why im surprised we are letting him go for that amount. It's true what someone said on here. Heads will begin to roll if we dont have a decent transfer summer. All we need...

Re: The Mirror create a rumour about Schmeichel Well thought id pop on seeing as you are linked with Kasper.

Re: The Mirror create a rumour about Schmeichel Leeds fan here. Not so sure mate. Schmeichel is a fantastic shot stopper, makes himself big like his dad did but he also made a lot of blunders. Leeds problem last season weren't the back 4, it was the back 5 and he has to take some...

Dyer etc are doing that well that u have been below us all season (or are u catching up soon to overtake us). Max has been in the team of the wk more times than any of your players and feel free to check. Max is a completely different player to what he was then with u. Hes older now and he is a...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bhpdO8jlwk New Video made yesteday to show what Gradel is capable of now. Included in Championship team of the week a few times this season already. One of the trickiest wingers/strikers in this league.!!

What a great piece of business!!! 200k and still only 23. I remember hearing a few mixed stories when you sold him but he has been nothing short of fantastic this season. 7 goals already in the championship,not always played as a striker also and has been pretty much a starter from the first...

http://www.sufc.co.uk/javaImages/a8/b4/0,,10418~3585192,00.jpg COME AND GET ME.!!!! He will be your saviour, mark my words. Available too.!!!

Only being honest. You looked very poor and last season you looked decent under Pearson. I know its only early into the season but you are showing signs on being in a relegation rut which then leads to lack of confidence within the team and it's hard to get out of that. It happened to Leeds and...

I think we can all say (apart from the cup game which you can clearly have) that Leeds have a much better and stable (manager) team than you lot. Portsmouth are poor anyway, you were extremely poor with now a minus 11 G/D and an embarassment on TV. Favourites surely to go back to league one...
