Previous successive owners ran it into the ground.. one of my best mates, his lad is at Man U academy (He's 12, just signed for another 2 years and been with them since age eight) was telling me when his lad went to Man U he had the pick of loads of clubs and Leeds was one of them but the academy was really badly run (he's a big Leeds fan too so it was a horrible decision to make) so he chose Manchester to give his lad best coaching and set up etc.. he says Leeds have been well behind the big clubs in England for a long time.
My mates 6 year old has been training with a few diff clubs, Leeds, Man U, Shef Utd and Sheff Weds this past year and he said Leeds were the worst set up. so still seems like a lot of work to do.
Struijk out for at least 3 weeks, could be months if ligament damage.... looks like we will bring someone in if thats the case according to Farke. Ampadu to CB then at the weekend.
