Leeds, That! - A Leeds United Fan PodcastShow Notes
Leeds United bounce back from the Arsenal humiliation with a dominant 3-1 win over Nottingham Forest at Elland Road. James, Dara and Rocco react to Ilia Gruev's record-breaking two-assist masterclass, Farke's tactical homework targeting Forest's makeshift defence, DCL hitting double figures (and kicking Gruev in the face), Okafor ending his drought, Pizza Crouch's debut header, Buonanotte's squad omission, and Leeds moving level on points with a spiralling Spurs. Nine points clear of the drop. Friday night fortress intact.

Leeds 1-1 Man United reaction + Sunderland preview. A cracking day in Leeds with the Irish contingent, a Calvert-Lewin equaliser five minutes after Martinez went off, and a point that felt like two dropped.
Leeds outplayed the champions for an hour at the Emirates, then Arsenal's bench came on. Arsenal 2-1 Leeds reaction and Man United 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."
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.
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.
