Also don't agree with Ruddy and you could argue Whittaker is unlucky to not get in over Fatawu but Abdul has been good for a good chunk of the season. That's specifically the 'WhoScored.com' version. The official EFL one is far more sensible: 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sampson Posted 13 May Share Posted 13 May Yeah who scored just rates players each match based on its statistical rating system and then there’s the best average rating over the season. It is of course subjective what is important to a performance though and so inherently favours certain attributes (dribbling stats are notoriously given a lot of weight for example).

Ted Maul Posted 13 May Share Posted 13 May Just highlights how farcical it is to have the vote over a month before the end of the season- a lot can change in the run in, it's the most crucial part of the season and the players who step up when the pressure is on deserve more recognition, if anything. Summerville getting player of the season, after a fairly anonymous run in and a Leeds implosion, seems questionable at best in hindsight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see your point, but 'player' of the season has to have some scope to be distinct from how the 'team' performed, in order to recognise individual brilliance. Szmodics had a great season, but his team nearly got relegated. With your logic he should be completely out of the running. For example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filbertway Posted 13 May Share Posted 13 May Whittaker and Szmodics both had statisically better seasons than Rutter, very odd decision. Not sure how a man who's banged in 27 league goals isn't making team of the season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that, my point was more about how the timing completely discounts the end of the season (I.e. I'd wager that Summerville would be far less likely to win it now, compared to when Leeds were on a 15-game unbeaten run). Opposite ends of the table but when the pressure was on, Szmodics did the business and Summerville wilted. It's just daft that the most important part of the season isn't taken into consideration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UniFox21 Posted 13 May Share Posted 13 May The knife attack at the Leeds Vs Norwich game was dreadful to see. Hopefully those responsible get arrested But the Leeds fans stirring shit up on twitter to try and create issues at the second leg need to get a grip.

What an absolute prat! He should be focusing on the Norwich game instead of trying to bias refereeing decisions before they play. He’s conveniently forgotten all the dodgy decisions that have gone for Leeds eh? Absolute pillock. Can’t stand him.

Five or six players leave they will be in trouble next year.... could be at the wrong of the championship.. make or break for leeds. Farke may even get the sack.

They have a lot of players out on loan which I'm presuming they are hoping to sell. I'd imagine that's where a good chunk of that money would be made up. And those are decent players rather than our need to get rid of fringe players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramboacdc Posted 17 May Share Posted 17 May 1 minute ago, foxfanazer said: Apparently Norwich have sacked David Wagner How BBC are reporting it, they say he was on borrowed time. He turned them round pretty well didn't he? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cpvg3kz91ngo Norwich City have sacked boss David Wagner less than 24 hours after their crushing Championship play-off defeat by Leeds. BBC Sport understands the Canaries have acted following Thursday's 4-0 semi-final second-leg loss which left them facing a third successive season in the second tier. Arsenal coach Carlos Cuesta is of interest as a replacement having worked with sporting director Ben Knapper when he was loans manager at the Gunners. Wagner was on borrowed time after Knapper replaced Stuart Webber in November but managed to guide the Canaries to a sixth-placed finish. An official club statement is expected later on Friday.
