DANIEL FARKE'S FATE SEALED? LEEDS EYES RODGERS, POSTECOGLOU
Leeds United is in a Premier League crisis. With Farke under pressure, will they replace him? We analyse the candidates: Postecoglou & Rodgers. Get the latest.
Leeds is in a tough spot in the Premier League, sitting 18th after losing seven of twelve games. There's a lot of uncertainty around Daniel Farke's position. It's especially noticeable since he led Leeds to promotion with 100 points—a season fans won't forget. But the doubts people had before the season started haven't gone away. The stats aren't good. TalkSport points out that he has the worst points-per-game record of any manager with over 50 Premier League games, at just 0.61. One senior person at Leeds said, The club can't promise anything right now. Results will decide what happens.
Possible Replacements in the Wings
Of course, names are being mentioned, and two are getting the most attention. Ange Postecoglou, despite his short, 39-day stay with Nottingham Forest, is still well-regarded within the club. His brief time there doesn't seem to have hurt his reputation, though taking a third job in five months raises a big question for him and Leeds. One source said, His style of play is attacking, and his attitude fits the Leeds fans, but the timing is tricky.
Rodgers Monitoring the Situation
Then there's Brendan Rodgers, who recently left Celtic for the second time. TalkSport says he's interested in returning to the Premier League. The drama around his exit from Celtic, including the angry statement from Dermot Desmond calling his actions divisive, misleading, and self-serving, makes things even more interesting. The fact that Leeds is owned by 49ers Enterprises, who also own a big stake in Rangers, adds another layer to the situation.
Tough Games Ahead
The pressure is on with upcoming games against Manchester City, Chelsea, and Liverpool. These games will need great planning and clear leadership. Leeds needs to decide if sticking with what they have or making a change is the best way to get through this difficult period.
Our Perspective
People really appreciate what Daniel Farke did in the Championship. It was a season that fans will talk about for years. But the Premier League is a different beast. Fans have seen leads disappear, confidence drop, and familiar problems show up again. Many will say, You can't ignore the numbers. Something has to change.
The names being discussed bring up mixed feelings. Ange Postecoglou plays exciting football, and Leeds fans would like a manager who wants to attack. But his recent, short stint at Forest makes people wonder. A 39-day job doesn't build trust. Leeds fans have dealt with too much instability and might worry about another risky, short-term choice.
Rodgers, on the other hand, is seen as an interesting option. He's known for creating structure and identity, but his exit from Celtic brings up questions about his long-term commitment. Some will remember how his Leicester team fell apart before being relegated, making them wonder if he's the right person for a relegation battle.
The ownership situation adds more emotional weight. Leeds fans won't want their club involved in the politics of Rangers and Celtic, and hiring a manager who left Celtic on bad terms could create unnecessary drama.
What most fans want is clarity, a clear decision, a sense of direction, and a manager who truly believes in hard work and unity. Leeds can survive this season, but only if there's strong conviction from the owners down to the coach. More than anything, the fans want stability.
CONOR GALLAGHER CONFIRMED AS "VITAL" STARTER FOR SPURS FOLLOWING BENTANCUR’S INJURY LAYOFF
Conor Gallagher proved the doubters wrong against Man City. Discover why his €40m move to Tottenham is finally paying off for Spurs.
_1770149665.webp)
Chelsea and Atletico Madrid both decided Conor Gallagher wasn’t worth the trouble. At Chelsea, he had his moments—Pochettino liked him, but the fans never really warmed up. When Chelsea shipped him off to Atletico, it made sense. Enzo Fernandez stepped up, took over Gallagher’s role, and fit in perfectly next to Caicedo, with Cole Palmer adding that extra spark up front.
Things didn’t get much better for Gallagher in Spain. He barely got a chance at Atleti, lost his spot in the starting eleven, and pretty much ended up on the transfer list before anyone had time to blink. Interest was lukewarm at best until the winter window rolled around. Aston Villa wanted him and went after him pretty aggressively, but then Tottenham swooped in late. Spurs needed someone to patch up the midfield after Bentancur’s injury, so they just paid up—40 million euros, no hesitation.
His start at Tottenham? Rough. Honestly, that was to be expected. He’d played well at Palace before, but after his struggles at Atleti, he needed time to adjust. Sitting on the bench in Spain didn’t do him any favours.
Then Gallagher showed up. People doubted whether he could really add creativity and move the ball forward for Spurs, so his early struggles got people worried. But then came the 2-2 draw against Manchester City. He suddenly looked like the player both Ange Postecoglou and Thomas Frank were so desperate to sign.
Against City, Gallagher flipped the script. He set up a crucial assist, drove play forward on the dribble, and kept drawing fouls—everything the Spurs needed. Defensively, he was all over the place in a good way: two tackles, three interceptions, a full 90 minutes, and a huge part of the Spurs clawing their way back into the game.
Tottenham fans loved it. They saw the effort, the attitude, and the hunger to win. Gallagher just wouldn’t quit, and in that second half, he, Xavi Simons, Pape Matar Sarr, Destiny Udogie, and Dominic Solanke ran the show. Four of those guys have been carrying Spurs lately, so Gallagher is fitting right in with them. That’s a pretty good sign he’s going to work out just fine in North London.
