    Slow In The Head Leeds 0-0 Crystal Palace Reaction, Five Games Unbeaten & Arsenal Away Preview

    Five games, five without defeat, and somehow it feels flat. Leeds ground out a goalless draw with Palace to stay unbeaten, but this was nothing like the Newcastle night. Two shots on target. A Palace goal chalked off by VAR on 53. And a manager who said his side were "a bit too slow in the head at times." In this episode we unpack why Leeds were so blunt. Were Palace just well organised, or was this an off day? We get into Calvert-Lewin fed on scraps, Bogle's best game of the season, and Anton Stach looking nothing like last year. Plus the stat that reframes it: Leeds shaded the xG, 1.36 to 0.74. We go through Farke's presser: the set piece gripe, the admission Leeds "didn't manage to keep the fire burning inside the stadium", and an unchanged XI for a third straight game. Then the internationals: Calvert-Lewin and Trafford in Tuchel's England squad, Bogle and Justin snubbed again, Stach in Klopp's 44-man Germany squad. Darragh asks if this break comes at the worst possible time. Quick fire: Milner telling Scholes and Butt he'd never have joined Man United. Ampadu's long throw as a weapon. Arteta admitting Arsenal were in trouble "from the first throw-in" at Brighton. And we want you at the Man United game. Then it's the Emirates on 10 October. Arsenal were taken apart 3-0 at Brighton and Saliba is out until November, but they haven't lost to Leeds in 16 meetings since 2003. Is there a way in? Up the Whites. 🎧 All our links: https://linktr.ee/leedsthat 🌐 Website: https://leedsthat.com 📸 Instagram: https://instagram.com/leedsthat 🐦 X / Twitter: https://x.com/leedsthat 🎵 TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@leedsthat 🔭 Sponsor: Bass & Bligh - the finest optics in all the land https://bassandbligh.com #LUFC #LeedsUnited #LeedsThat #MOT #MarchingOnTogether #LeedsUnitedPodcast #ALAW #PremierLeague #LeedsPalace #LEECRY #ArsenalLeeds #ARSLEE #DanielFarke #CalvertLewin #JaydenBogle #AntonStach #JamesMilner #BassAndBligh 00:11 Introduction and Game Overview 02:51 Performance Analysis and Team Dynamics 06:05 Defensive Strengths and Goalkeeping Insights 08:40 Midfield and Attacking Challenges 11:37 Substitutions and Tactical Decisions 14:33 International Break and Player Call-Ups 17:22 Referee Performance and Game Conclusion 27:04 Refereeing Frustrations 28:16 Disallowed Goals and VAR Controversies 28:57 Crowd Reactions and Player Reception 31:10 The Power of Club Anthems 31:48 Man of the Match Discussion 33:20 Looking Ahead to Arsenal 36:56 Meetup Plans and Community Engagement 38:14 James Milner's Legacy and Fan Sentiments Learn more about your ad choices.

    Justice for DCL! | Leeds 4-1 Newcastle Reaction: Calvert-Lewin Brace, Third in the Table & Palace

    We discuss a statement night under the Elland Road lights, as Leeds United blew Newcastle away 4-1 on Monday Night Football to stay unbeaten and climb to third in the Premier League. Three goals in 14 first-half minutes, a Dominic Calvert-Lewin double, and Matthias Jaissle's first defeat as Newcastle boss. In this episode we unpack a relentless first half: Ao Tanaka's deflected opener, Dominic Calvert-Lewin bullying Sven Botman all night, and Noah Okafor's cool finish to make it four. James Justin's cross for the second deserves its own segment. Eight points from four games. Only Arsenal and Man City above us. We get into the goal that launched a thousand memes. Calvert-Lewin's header was first credited to Jayden Bogle, Bogle said it never touched him, DCL called it "scandalous" and Leeds appealed. Now the Premier League appeals panel has given the goal back to DCL, taking him to three for the season. James Justin picks up the assist, and 2.3 million FPL managers are left fuming about their missing two points. Justice served. Plus the first-minute penalty shout that the ref and VAR waved away, and why Keith Hackett thinks we were robbed. Gudmundsson's cramp scare. Trafford barely troubled. Toure's late consolation. Is this the best Leeds performance of the Farke era in the Premier League? Then we look ahead to Sunday, as a battered Crystal Palace come to Elland Road. Pierre Sage's side have lost three of four, play in the Europa League on Thursday, and are without Mateta, Henderson and Disasi. 🎧 All our links: https://linktr.ee/leedsthat 🌐 https://leedsthat.com 📸https://instagram.com/leedsthatpod 🐦Twitter: https://x.com/leedsthatpod 🔭 Sponsor: Bass & Bligh - the finest optics in all the land https://bassandbligh.com #LUFC #LeedsUnited #LeedsThat #MOT #MarchingOnTogether #LeedsUnitedPodcast #ALAW #PremierLeague #LEENEW #LeedsPalace #LEECRY #CalvertLewin #JusticeForDCL #JaydenBogle #NoahOkafor #AoTanaka #EthanAmpadu Learn more about your ad choices.

    UNBEATEN! Leeds Start Fast + The Full Window Debrief with Leeds Live's Isaac Johnson

    Rocco is joined by Isaac Johnson of Leeds Live to look back on a tidy start to the season and a summer window Isaac reckons is near perfect. Three games in and Leeds are unbeaten. A smash-and-grab winner at Forest, a competent cup win back at the City Ground, then two draws that would very likely have been defeats last season. The lads dig into what has actually changed: a bolder set-up, more street-wise-ness, and the fact Leeds were one of only nine clubs in the league to keep their manager over the summer. Then the window. How Leeds beat off interest to sign James Trafford, and why his arrival plus Ethan Ampadu's early contract sends a message to every other target. Tarik Muharemović settling in like he has been here for years at 23. Nico Elvedi, Jaka Bijol and the selection headache in the back three. Why the Rodon injury might be the only reason Melvin Bard is a Leeds player at all. Michael Zetterer as possibly the best backup keeper in the division. And the deadline day pivot to Jean-Mattéo Bahoya after the Chelsea deal fell apart, plus why Julian Brandt was never quite convinced. Plus: the one position Isaac still worries about, the Chelsea cup tie, Newcastle under the lights at Elland Road, the away draw curse, and how the West Stand build is changing matchday. Isaac writes for Leeds Live and his free Marching On newsletter is out every Friday on Substack, just past 1,000 subscribers. Follow him at @IsaacJohnsonLL. 00:00 Intro - Rocco meets Isaac Johnson 00:33 So far so good: the first three games 02:42 One of only nine clubs to keep their manager 04:06 Brighton away - a fair draw? 06:05 The goal conceded and would we have blamed a keeper last season? 07:17 James Trafford: how did Leeds actually get him? 10:24 Tarik Muharemović has fitted in like a glove 13:56 Elvedi, Bijol and the back three headache 17:53 Melvin Bard, Michael Zetterer and the value of proper cover 21:35 Deadline day: the Chelsea deal that died and the Bahoya pivot 24:31 Julian Brandt and love those who love you back 26:02 Rating the window and the striker worry 27:47 Chelsea in the cup and the away draw curse 30:08 Newcastle at Elland Road under the lights 31:35 What is actually a good season for Leeds? 32:17 The West Stand build and matchday changes 34:11 Where to find Isaac and the Marching On newsletter Sponsored by Bass & Bligh - https://bassandbligh.com - the finest purveyors of binoculars, spotting scopes and camera gear.

    STACH DOES IT AGAIN | Forest 0-1 Leeds Reaction + Brentford Preview

    Anton Stach curls in an 88th minute free kick at the City Ground and Leeds start the season with three points, a clean sheet, and their first top-flight win at Forest since 1971/72. We get into the goal, the three debutants, and whether Farke actually planned to win it from a set piece. Plus: does a tennis background make you a better free kick taker? Stach's dad is the voice of tennis in Germany and once told his own son to stop embarrassing him live on air. Then it's back to Nottingham on Tuesday for the cup, and a look at Brentford, who put four goals' worth of chances past Spurs and are coming to Elland Road. Elsewhere: Hull turn over Man United, Spurs spend £228m and lose 3-0, and Sandro Tonali finds row Z. 00:11 Introduction and Season Optimism 02:55 Player Performances and Debuts 05:52 Managerial Insights and Team Dynamics 08:57 Expectations for the Season Ahead 11:32 Match Analysis and Key Moments 14:19 Free Kick Techniques and Player Skills 21:46 Contract Negotiations and Managerial Stability 28:16 Transfer Market Insights and Player Performance 31:17 Referee Decisions and Match Analysis 35:08 Upcoming Matches and Team Dynamics 37:19 Player Contracts and Future Prospects Cameras, lenses and optics by Bass & Bligh, Harrogate: https://bassandbligh.com Join us: https://leedsthat.com #LUFC #LeedsUnited #PremierLeague #epl #forest #brentford Learn more about your ad choices.

    Are Leeds Actually Ready? Trafford, Farke & Elland Road latest

    Leeds United beat RB Leipzig 2-0 at Elland Road, or 1-0 twice depending on who you ask, and Croke Park is next. James, Darragha and Rocco are live to go through all of it. Joe Rodon turned into a right winger, Tarik Muharemovic looked every bit the Rolls-Royce defender Daniel Farke called him, and Alex Cairns played all 120 minutes for a clean sheet while getting serenaded as England's number one. Meanwhile Joel Piroe didn't get a single minute out of 120, which tells you everything about where he sits. We also get into the club record signing of James Trafford, Karl Darlow's move to Manchester United, why Farke's new contract still hasn't been announced, the unfinished dugouts at Elland Road with two weeks until the season, the new Fan Park plans, the 80% away attendance rule and Wednesday night at Croke Park.

    New Kit, Ampadu Stays & Marathe's Master Plan | Leeds United Summer Transfer Talk | Leeds That! Podcast

    James, Darragh and Rocco are back for a summer catch-up - and despite "nothing happening," there's plenty to chew over. We kick off with the new Adidas 26/27 away kit (Rocco's not sold on the navy shorts), the historic trefoil logo and Leeds moving up Adidas' premium tier, before getting stuck into Paraag Marathe's annual address and what it tells us about how the 49ers are running the club. Then the big one: Ethan Ampadu's new four-year deal, no relegation clause, and why locking down the captain so early is the biggest statement Leeds could make this summer. The boys debate Farke's future, the transfer targets doing the rounds (Diomande, Harry Wilson and the never-ending goalkeeper search), who's likely to leave, and whether Gnonto could be another one that gets away. Plus: Rocco's off to Mexico for Uruguay v Spain at the World Cup, a genius (or daft?) idea for fixing extra time, why Karl Darlow might just be the answer in goal, and a lovely Rafinha tribute to Liam Cooper to finish.

    Leeds United 2025/26 End of Season Awards | Goal, Signing & Player of the Year

    James, Darragh and Rocco look back on Leeds United's first season back in the Premier League with the end of season awards. After finishing 14th on 47 points, eight clear of the drop, with an FA Cup semi-final run and a first league win at Old Trafford since 1981, Daniel Farke's side delivered a season nobody outside Elland Road saw coming. The lads hand out awards across eight categories - best match, team performance, individual performance, goal of the season, signing of the season, season low, surprise hero and player of the year - with plenty of disagreement along the way. Plus a tribute to Illan Meslier, shoutouts to the players who didn't make the shortlists, and a teaser of the summer transfer chat to come.

    Leeds 1-0 Brighton Reaction: Calvert-Lewin Hero, Farke's Future & West Ham Preview

    We discuss Elland Road for the final home game of the season, and what a way to sign off - a 95th-minute winner from Dominic Calvert-Lewin to beat Brighton 1-0 and extend Leeds United's unbeaten Premier League run to eight matches, the longest top-flight unbeaten streak since 2001. In this episode we unpack a remarkable afternoon at Elland Road: the carnival atmosphere, the defensive masterclass from Bijol, Rodon and Sebastiaan Bornauw, Karl Darlow's case for cult hero status, and Calvert-Lewin's instinctive pounce on Jan Paul van Hecke's error to ignite the stadium. Going into the final day, only five teams have lost fewer Premier League matches than Leeds this season - Arsenal, Man City, Man United, Bournemouth and Aston Villa. Eleven sides below us have lost more. Time to reframe what this season actually was. We get into Daniel Farke's extraordinary pre-match press conference where the German declared his "mission fulfilled" and "job done" - and why those headlines aren't what they look like. Plus the Wilfried Gnonto to Freiburg story, whether Leeds have actually let him down (spoiler: no), and Darragh floats a smart loan-without-obligation idea that could suit everybody. Joe Rodon, Ethan Ampadu and the players who've built this thing from the ground up. Brendan Aaronson's development. The Sean Longstaff debate that won't die. Dominic Calvert-Lewin's England chances heading into the World Cup. David O'Leary's frustrating Overlap interview. And the disgusting Luke Ayling incident at Southampton. Then we look ahead to the final day at the London Stadium where West Ham could already be relegated by the time Leeds kick off.
