Leeds are a big club though, never rule out them spending some money.
If little scotty Parker spent as much time sorting out his attacking play than he did thinking about what snazzy outfit he is going to wear on the sidelines they be world beaters.
Problem for them is that they'll actually have less spending power than everyone else (including Burnley and Sheffield United) due to them having lower allowable losses having spent the last 2 years in the Championship.
Wouldn't be surprised to see clubs looking at us and wondering if the points gained from overspending makes it worth taking the deduction from FFP breaching.
Possibly. Breaching FFP might be their only shot at staying up.
Leeds will give it a good go - they have very ambitious owners these days - I think they will do an EM
I don't think it would make that much difference as they have a lot of spending power due to their revenue, they pull in much more money than those clubs & a lot of PL clubs.
I know it would be controversial - but the best thing Leeds could do is sack Farke - the day after the Open bus parade and bring in a proven manager - and allow him to spend the money.
They should be tapping up managers before the season starts & if Farke starts poorly then get rid sharpish.
I disagree.
Have to say, I thought that was a terrible appointment for them at the time but he's proven me wrong. He's doing very well, fair play to him.
Just seen this on BBC Sport. Doing an amazing job. Owner got loads of flack for sacking Robins, and he didn’t front up immediately but can remember him on talk sport speaking quite eloquently and justifying decision. I know Lampard links with Derby, but ignoring that I’d love Coventry to get in prem-they’ve had tough few years and proper club.
True,Bryan-but he’s still got to get promotion and keep Coventry in the Premier League if they do go up.
They've absolutely battered Leeds in the second half.
