Leeds, That! - The Ultimate Leeds United Podcast

James and Rocco react to Leeds United's 1-0 FA Cup semi-final defeat to Chelsea at Wembley, and look ahead to the must-win Premier League clash with already-relegated Burnley on Friday night. Chelsea were there for the taking. A side in crisis, manager sacked four days earlier, no goals for weeks. And yet Leeds froze. We get into Aaronson's huge early miss, Pascal Struijk's costly error, the midfield battle Steven Gerrard called "outclassed," Robert Sanchez's blatant tactical timeout, Ampadu's brilliant reaction, and why Daniel Farke chose to take the high road afterwards. Plus all the colour from the day itself: the drive down with a garden centre charge stop, Rocco's dad picking up a gilet on Wembley Way, meeting Andrew Bagchi and his son, a shoutout to Sam Cheang who flew in from Singapore, and Malcolm Sunley's stunning Don McCullin-esque photograph of Elland Road sent in to Bass & Bligh.

What a night at the Theatre of Dreams! James, Rocco and Darragh react to Leeds United's historic 3-1 victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford — our first league win there since 1981. The lads break down a brave Farke lineup, a Tanaka masterclass, two stunning Okafor finishes, Calvert-Lewin getting his hair pulled (yes, really), and Pascal Struijk and Jaka Bijol bossing the back line. We dig into Daniel Farke's growing legacy at Elland Road (4th best manager of all time?), why Karl Darlow has made the gloves his own, and how the recruitment team have nailed every signing this season. Plus: relegation maths (we're staying up, calling it now), the Wolves game on Saturday, FA Cup semi-final vs Chelsea at Wembley, and the glorious Scum social media meltdown that's made the last 24 hours even sweeter.

Leeds United are heading to Dublin's iconic Croke Park to face Manchester United this summer - and we discuss the incredible historical significance of this fixture for Irish and English football. Plus, we preview Sunday's huge FA Cup quarter-final against West Ham at the London Stadium as Leeds chase a first semi-final since 1987. Dominic Calvert-Lewin is rated doubtful with a hamstring complaint after his England recall, Gabriel Gudmundsson helped Sweden qualify for the World Cup in dramatic fashion, and we ask whether Spurs are heading for relegation after appointing Roberto De Zerbi as their third manager of the season. Rocco also tells us about watching Bielsa's murderball at Uruguay training and getting three iconic words from Marcelo himself. All that plus the 419-minute goal drought, team selection debates, and why we'd take the FA Cup over staying up. 🎧 Listen on all podcast platforms: https://linktr.ee/leedsthat 🌐 Website: https://leedsthat.com 📸 Instagram: https://instagram.com/leedsthat 🐦 X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/leedsthat 🎵 TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@leedsthat 🤝 Sponsored by Bass & Bligh: https://bassandbligh.com ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro & Bass and Bligh 1:45 - Rocco meets Bielsa at Uruguay training 4:45 - Calvert-Lewin's England recall & missed header 5:55 - DCL hamstring doubt for West Ham 6:05 - Gudmundsson & Sweden qualify for the World Cup 6:38 - Okafor, Dan James & Wales heartbreak 9:11 - Leeds vs Man United at Croke Park 18:33 - The 419-minute goal drought 19:29 - FA Cup vs staying up debate 22:27 - Relegation battle & fixtures breakdown 25:39 - Are Spurs going down? 28:26 - Man United away & Wolves preview 32:02 - Strongest team debate & selection 37:00 - Wrap up #LUFC #LeedsUnited #LeedsThat #FACup #PremierLeague #WestHam #CrokePark #CalvertLewin #Gudmundsson #WorldCup2026 #Bielsa #MOT #WHULEE #MarchingOnTogether #LeedsUnitedPodcast #FACupQuarterFinal #England #Sweden #Relegation #Spurs #DeZerbi #DanJames #EllersRoad #ALAW Learn more about your ad choices.

Leeds United put in a solid away performance at Selhurst Park but came away with a point after a controversial Gabriel Gudmundsson red card and a Dominic Calvert-Lewin penalty miss. Daragh and Rocco break down the lot. In this episode: Bijol back in the team and absolutely dominant against Strand Larsen Bogle dropped for Justin - the right call for an away day? Aaronson: won us over but gone off the boil?

Anton Stach scores a 35-yard free-kick stunner - his third of the season - but Tammy Abraham's 88th-minute equaliser denies Leeds all three points at Villa Park. We react to Aston Villa 1-1 Leeds United, discuss Karl Darlow's incredible triple save, Farke's counter-attacking masterclass with just 33% possession, and ask whether two points were dropped or one gained. Plus, we preview Saturday's huge clash against Man City at Elland Road (5:30pm, Sky Sports). City are on a five-game winning streak and chasing Arsenal for the title - but Leeds showed in the 3-2 reverse fixture they can compete. Can Elland Road under the lights make the difference? We discuss team news, Stach's fitness, the goalkeeper dilemma and how to stop Erling Haaland. Leeds sit 15th with 31 points, six clear of the drop zone, with a massive run of home games coming up.

A bruising 4-0 home defeat to Arsenal and we're not holding back. Darragh climbed off his sick bed to deliver a passionate verdict on Daniel Farke's team selection — why was Gruev starting ahead of Longstaff against the best set-piece team in the country? Why Justin at centre-back instead of Bornauw? And why is 70 minutes always the magic number for subs? We debate whether Farke is reverting to old habits that could cost Leeds dearly. The silver lining? West Ham's spectacular collapse against Chelsea — 2-0 up at half-time, missed two more golden chances, and somehow lost 3-2 with Todibo sent off. Twitter was a wonderful place afterwards. We look ahead to Friday night's huge clash with Nottingham Forest at Elland Road. Neco Williams is banned after his heroic/idiotic handball on the line, but Sean Dyche has them well organised and unbeaten in four. Can Farke get the selection right this time? Plus - do we need a goalkeeper more than a striker? Harry Gray scores two belters for Rotherham, Erling Haaland gives the Leeds salute to Galatasaray fans (Dara's written him a song), and the worst foul throws in Premier League history. 🍺 Sponsor: Bass & Bligh, Harrogate's photographic & optics dealer — 10% off all used gear in February!

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.
