4 Big Reasons Leeds United Will Rise Again...

Four powerful forces are pulling together to resurrect the sleeping giant that is Leeds United.

Meet The Four Forces That Will Resurrect Leeds United

Massimo Cellino, maverick sheriff, shooting from the lip.

Let me tell you something, when Massimo launches a charm offensive his is smoother than Smoothie McSmooth on a smooth day and more powerful than a force of nature powered by a plethora of metaphors, my friends.

No doubt there will be a Cellino-fest held in the boardroom in the East Stand for Phil Hay of the Yorkshire Evening Post, Adam Pope of Radio Leeds & LUTV to be broadcast at some point before the season kicks off.

Already in the last few days the wolves of Fleet Street have published positive pieces in the Mail, Mirror [albeit written by a Leeds fan] and the Guardian.

In this latest volley of consciousness Cellino has confirmed his pledge to buy back Elland Road by November when the current rental period expires; rumours that his offer was £7M, a consignment of fine Italian wine, meats & cheeses from Silvio of Sardinia and a go on the bought b****s of choice is unsubstantiated, but it’s progress. He also stated forcibly that he wants four more players in before Saturday.

6 Things We Learned From Leeds v Swindon

Nicola Salerno, player finder extraordinaire.

Leeds have been linked with more footballers than Danielle Lloyd this summer and lets face it more sportsmen have run through her than the finishing line of the London Marathon.

The common theme has been young, hungry, mainly unknown to the general British football public.

The results so far have been spectacular with each new recruit substantially better than the one he replaced. Silvestri, Bianchi, Berardi & Doukara are all good technically and add quality to the squad.

We still need more solidity and steel at the back, more fantasy & invention in midfield and pace and goals in attack. These final pieces of the jigsaw will make us contenders.

The final raft of signings in the offing includes a great Dane of a centre back from Juventus, a Slovenian wonder kid from Milan, a grizzled centre back from Cardiff, a Gaul hungry for English goals and maidens, and a tricky winger from Padova.

David Hockaday & Junior Lewis, surprise package.

Hock & Junior came into Leeds looking like competition winners and have emerged as proper football men with a plan which has been effectively put into action.

Leeds United have been transformed into a team who press, work hard with the ball and when they get it pass, pass, pass and move in a way more pleasing on the eye than anything seen at Elland Road than Eleonora’s peekaboo selfie featuring her exquisite arse.

Hock has morphed from an awkward, staccato speaker to a lucid message deliverer as his nerves have been replaced by confidence in what he is trying to achieve, supported by the squad.

Hock & Junior have reinvigorated the old players, integrated the new foreign ones and a strong element of youth educated up through the Academy.

Pre-season has got the players fitter, leaner and more together than they have looked for years.

The squad looks integrated, they work for each other, understand the system and appear to enjoy playing.

Hock must be using Google Translate as much as the fans to get his message across but it sure as hell appears to be working.

Leeds fans.

The fans are the club, the only constant in a sea of change, they want to see players who have pride in the shirt, who give 100%, who tackle back and yes, in Hock speak “put in a shift”.

We will support a team who deliver proper performances, we crave a team to be proud of.

It looks like the fab four of Cellino, Salerno, Hock & Junior and the fans are marching on together to a bright, white future.

Come on Leeds!

If you like it, Pass it on

Blimey. You cannot be a real Leeds fan. Far too optimistic!

gazza 11:28 am, 6-Aug-2014

we still need a top striker in and two centre halves yet , it looks like he dont like spending money most in on loans with a view to purchase later , i would like to see some money spent on a quality striker, and sorenson and an experienced centre back in we need 4

gazza 11:31 am, 6-Aug-2014

think this squad is prob good enough to be around the 10 th position no more until top quality is brought in in the right areas which will prob be next year now, quality usually comes to the top ie man city qpr finally got up etc etc, but if we make 6th place ill be more than happy , tad bit dissapointed the mccormack money hasn t been spent on a top class striker ie 3/4/5/6 mill spent

JDC 12:54 pm, 6-Aug-2014

Jeez gazza, how do you know that the players who have been brought in so far aren't top quality? I couldn't care less if MC / NS don't spend a penny as long as they bring in quality, and so far, each of the players are a big improvement on the ones they are replacing.

Millwall 0 Leeds 2....

Gazza you are speaking like the tired old hacks who only know journeymen league players. Cellino is canny - get them in on loan with an option to buy. McC was a 3 mill player at best and I can only think he was bought by the Fulham owner as a pressie. Actually if we now have quality mid field options who can deliver good ball we already have the forwards to knock it in. This is exciting new territory for all of us and a 10th finish is pessimistic.There will be more to come yet and a few to go I feel.

"Let me tell you something, when Massimo launches a charm offensive his is smoother than Smoothie McSmooth on a smooth day and more powerful than a force of nature powered by a plethora of metaphors, my friends." You've got to laugh! Mark my words this Cellino character is a grandiose, megalomaniacal, psychopath and this will all end in tears dear Leeds fans.
