In the blood

The third man

Andy Gray was the third of the family to represent Leeds, and like his dad and uncle, writes Patrick Gunn, once was not enough.

Missing home?

A new ground, European football, profitable transfers — Freiburg are doing the Leeds model better than Leeds, writes Patrick Gunn. Just don’t tell Robin Koch.

Falling for Gnonto

After Bellusci and Bianchi, Leeds finally have an Italian hero whose cult credentials look legit, writes Patrick Gunn.

After Tony Capaldi and Laurens De Bock, maybe you wouldn’t sign any more left-backs either. Patrick Gunn tries to polish some potatoes.

Willy or Won’ty?

Can Leeds really expect Wilfried Gnonto to make an impact in the first team this season? Our resident Swiss resident has the lowdown.

Hullter Skelter

Don't laugh: it's time for a cup run. Just make sure someone shows Jesse Marsch a video of Leeds vs Hull before Barnsley come to Elland Road.

Jesse’s Time

Last season, when Leeds sacked Bielsa, we saw how important Premier League survival is to Leeds. Patrick Gunn wonders what the decision means for Jesse Marsch.

How will we get the best from our record signing? Patrick Gunn wonders if Jesse Marsch has the answers about Rodrigo.

Not feeling terrific

Circling the Premier League plughole? Endless injuries? Just sacked one of the most popular coaches in the club's history? Now's the time to launch some NFTs!

When reality doesn’t matter, why should I willingly accept things I don’t agree with, like Leeds United in League One? Didn't happen. Prove me wrong.

It looked like the pressure of the Under-23s had eroded the confidence of a good goalkeeper. But the pressure of our relegation fight was the making of him, writes Patrick Gunn.

Leeds United, Fortuna and the Fates

Jesse Marsch has talked a lot about controlling what Leeds can control, but the game at Leicester showed that might not be enough.

If the world worked right, says Patrick Gunn, Jonny Howson would be a Leeds United legend.
