    Leeds will go down, they have pretty much the same squad & leaky defence as last time they were in the premier league. Junior Firpo & Struijk are dog **** at that level. They have to invest heavily & pretty much get a new starting 11 to stand a chance, of staying up. The gulf in quality between the two leagues now is scary.

    Ayling Cooper Forshaw Summerville Sinisterra Rutter plus a load of big earners that were loaned out over the last 2 seasons have been sold.

    I can see the spending big like Forest did in order to survive and taking a points hit otherwise it will be nigh on impostor stay up.

    To be fair, this happens at every Footy Club that over achieves

    Can't understand there fans mentality. Seen so many fans on socials taking the piss out of Burnleys promotion parade. These are probably fans who never go games. Leeds is a massive club but fair play to Burnley they do really well for the size of the town and have been punching since 00s.

    I don't think Leeds have much wriggle room in their budget either - they've been losing massive amounts in the championship, maybe they can find £50 million to spend in the prem and stay in the rules, not sure that's enough for them to stay up? I suspect Burnley will have more money available, only spent 1 season back in the championship and sold a fair few players this year - net profit of £50 million on transfers, but probably can't attract the same players Leeds could, going to be interesting to see.
