Leeds, That! - A Leeds United Fan Podcast

Show Notes

Leeds United are building real momentum and this season suddenly feels very different. After a dramatic late winner against Fulham at Elland Road, Leeds look more organised, more confident and more like a proper Premier League side.

Rocco is joined by The Athletic’s Isaac Johnson to break down Daniel Farke’s visible emotion on the touchline, the goalkeeper shake up with Karl Darlow coming in, and whether Illan Meslier has any future left at Leeds this season.

We also dive deep into the January transfer window including:

- Strand Larsen to Leeds - Mateo Buonanotte arrival - Centre back priorities - Harry Wilson summer links - Outgoings including Jack Harrison and Archie Gray’s loan - Brenden Aaronson’s remarkable turnaround - Why Leeds might not sign anyone else at all

There’s honest debate about squad balance, PSR limits, striker profiles, and whether Leeds should gamble or trust what they have as survival looks more achievable by the week.
