4:07Jim Campbell: Hello everybody, welcome to the Football Ramble Leeds thrash Newcastle United as DCL impresses It's Tuesday 15th September I'm Marcus Speller And I'm Jim Campbell

4:31Jim Campbell: Welcome one and all It's a terrific Tuesday here at the Football Ramble. And Jim Campbell, it's terrific because of Daniel Farker's Leeds United. They bash Newcastle United 4-1. You haven't been on the pod for a little while. You're back now. And my goodness, you were treated to a Farker masterclass. I really was. We're not in the studio today because I'm not convinced it's safe and that little Luke isn't about still. So I requested that we recorded these from home today. With a little Farka. I was treated to a massive Farka yesterday. He's a big lad, isn't he? And it was a really, really impressive performance from Leeds.

5:16Jim Campbell: And let's be honest, this was a paddling. That's a paddling. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you may remember at the start of the season in the Athletics Hopometer. Yes. Leeds United fans topped it with 99 % positivity, and you can see why. You can. You can. Would you say that Farker gave Jaisal a spanking, or do we not want to go into those unconfirmed reports? Your fan fiction is your business. Fair enough. Yes, Leeds, they're unbeaten. There's still a fair few sides unbeaten in the Premier League this season so far. Only four games in. But still, I think it's worth noting. They're third in the table.

5:56Jim Campbell: It's early days, but they've joined the race for the Champions League, Jim. Dare I even say the title? But only Arsenal, Manchester City, Manchester United and Bournemouth have won more points than Leeds United in 2026. We're deep into September now. 2026 has been around since the 1st of January. That shows you why Leeds fans have been very positive going into this season because we remember the turnaround they made last season and they have carried it on, Jim. They have. And I mean, they had a pretty good window, didn't they? They added some quality. They didn't lose players that were going to be sort of too disastrous for them to not be able to swallow.

6:39Jim Campbell: And I think Leeds fans may correct me because they'll watch their team fall more closely than I do. But this was surely their best performance under Farka in the Premier League because it wasn't just about the scoreline. It was the manner of it. It was the way they bullied Newcastle. We'll come on to some of the reasons for that. But they were so good in the duels, and they were so good in all those physical moments. Absolutely, the topics. They played like they were mopping up gravy with a Yorkshire at the end of a roast. It was everything Newcastle did, they just dealt with so, so easily. And I think a big point in the game that has to be acknowledged is Nico Gonzalez going off with a concussion.

7:21Jim Campbell: That meant they had two very young players in the middle. And I think, you know, the kind of the positive spin for Newcastle is that at some point he'll be back and at some point Joe Linton will be back and it will not look like that in the middle. But with this team out there, Leeds just gobbled them up. Yeah, it was quite, it looked like quite an innocuous one with Nico Gonzalez, didn't it? When he got that concussion. But it shows you that, like, if it doesn't look that bad, it can still be bad. You know what I mean? It's why, as fans, sometimes when you say, oh, for crying out loud, get up.

7:56Jim Campbell: Unless that's Enzo Fernandes, which is perfectly acceptable, sometimes, actually, some of the bad ones can go unnoticed. But yeah, when that happened, I still felt Leeds United, they were on it last night. They had the bit between their teeth. And maybe Farker, looking at the eyes, he was thinking, you've had a nice little start to the Premier League, haven't you? Okay. well get a load of this big boy because we are going to bully the crap out of you as Luke would say we are going to take every penny of your dinner money and Calvert-Lewin Dominic Calvert-Lewin led that right from the front again like I say Ellen Road was pumping and Leeds United just they schooled them absolutely schooled them and what is so impressive again is this is only their second season in the Premier League since coming back Leeds United a performance like that it looks like there remains that looks like they've been here for years.

8:51Jim Campbell: Yeah. I mean, it was... I'm tempted to say vintage Leeds United. Get excited. Get excited for Leeds. It's amazing stuff. It's surely the most exciting time since Bielsa. And it's an opportunity to build something that even he couldn't quite, you know, manage to sustain in the Premier League because nobody can sustain working under him for too long. But it was really, really good stuff. And I think what's probably the most enjoyable thing about it from a Leeds fan perspective is how very quickly from the second goal really, and obviously those first two goals came in quick succession, you could see how much those players were enjoying it.

9:28Jim Campbell: You could tell they didn't want to come off. They're just absolutely loving being so dominant. And they're built so, so well for the Premier League. We know it's a very physical league. You know that those physical battles and those duels are really important. And they were really, really kind of flawless apart from the goal they conceded late on, which I think came from when the game's winding down, maybe concentration slips a little bit and because Daniel Farker wasn't happy about that he was furious about it but do you know what I love the fact he was furious about it as well like just the fact that shows you the mentality shift they've just absolutely bushed a fellow Premier League side who have started well and they've hammered them they've wiped the floor with them and they can see the consolation and if he's beaming after the game and I'm look of course he's really happy with his team's performance growing out but if he just goes ah well you know but no that's the attention to detail and again with Farker last season you know we much was made about how he couldn't sustain um himself if you like and his teams in the Premier League and there's context to that of course you know when you do come up with newly promoted sides um you know it's obviously a difficult task so yeah again the context is I think is important there but he looks like he's got both feet and full appendage under the desk now in the Premier League does he not because he again this this performance this is what we've come to expect from Leeds United to say throughout 2026 this is what they've been doing they and it's the classic stuff of know their jobs everyone's fighting for each other and when you add a little bit of um Calvert-Lewin seasoning in there as well Jim rest assured everybody I am going to talk about the England squad very briefly in the context of Calvert-Lewin but he was he was superb he was he was denied a double now if I'm Dominic Calvert-Lewin in that situation I'd be claiming I meant that as like what would be the greatest most inventive and most generous assist of all time just go Bobo help yourself On a night like that, everything's gone your way.

11:34Jim Campbell: Why not? Do you think that should have been given to Bogle? It's confusing, isn't it? Because it does come off him, and yet it's not deliberate. I feel like it should be given to Dominic Calvert-Lewin, but at the same time that it can't. Do you know what I mean? It's a confusing one. It's sort of morally, it's his goal. It's like when a player forces an own goal and they don't get the goal. Yeah. It's a very weird version of that. I don't think you're going to be on the dubious goals panel anytime soon with that kind of flipping and flapping. I'm glad I'm not. I think it shows you. It does. It shows you how difficult it is to be on that wonderfully named panel.

12:12Jim Campbell: But I think we've done it. So off the top of my head, if you think about a goal where a player doesn't know anything about it and it's cannoned off him and it goes in, I think Harry Kane against Panama to complete his hat-trick, I think it was, in the 2018 World Cup, where I forget who shot and it comes off his heel. And again, Harry Kane has made no attempt to play. He's got his back to the action, if I remember correctly. But I think he's scoring when he doesn't even mean to. I think with a goal like that, if you can remember it, I couldn't think of a more modern one, although 2018 is pretty recent for me, that changes the direction so wildly that I think you kind of, everyone holds their hands up.

12:57Jim Campbell: everyone would say that Harry Kane is his goal while we're all got hands in the air. All got hands up like those little fellas outside garages. I suppose we all did have our hands up because we were celebrating the goal. Anyway, sorry for the bollocks. Back to Calvert-Lewin. I don't think that's nearly enough from Bogle. I think it's got to be Calvert-Lewin's goal for my money. Well, there you go. Getting in touch with the GVS goals panel. You're decisive on that. I would quite like to. beyond that um the goal scorer of leeds united's goal was mr marcus speller who's got opened his account for the pro really but he certainly got his goal though jim later on and you saw again the the confidence and the for a striker who's been so injury prone in his career i'm hesitant to use the word power but i think i can yeah i mean it's um it was very confident as well wasn't You could see he's absolutely full of the injustice of him not getting the goal that his mate gets instead of him.

14:02Jim Campbell: But he looks fit and he looks fresh and he looks mobile. And part of the issue he's had has been injuries, isn't it? And you were very pleased to see him get this move to Leeds because it does seem a good fit. It seems a good landing spot for him. The style of play suits him very, very well. I wanted him to go to Fulham, actually. Yeah, yeah. Of course you did. But yeah, I thought there was a player still in there, which he's proving. We see it with players all the time, right? They come back from injury and they're on the pitch, but they're not at their best. We don't know how they're feeling in their body.

14:27Jim Campbell: We don't know how their mobility is affected. It can take a long time for players to get back to their kind of optimum level. And I think we're seeing it with Calvert-Lewin now. And it's a really exciting thing. And it's not just him. I think the physicality in the team is really impressive. But Noah Okafor was really good. Again, I really like him as a player. And that's a great goal from him and a bit of a sickener from Newcastle's point of view in terms of a shot like that going in, really. Tariq Muharemovic was very, very good. There was a lot of excitement about him coming in. He was excellent as well.

14:59Jim Campbell: And they are just such a well-drilled unit. And I'm sort of repeating myself here, but they look so well-equipped for the kind of nature of the Premier League as it is at the moment. I think, you know, those Leeds fans who are the 99 % of Leeds fans, and if you are in that 1%, get in touch. love to love to know just quite how grumpy you must be just as a person but they're absolutely right to be excited and you just you know four games in you know it's very possible that we're getting a bit carried away here but it's fun to get carried away I wonder what their expectations are yeah well I mean again talking about last season when so many clubs were going for European places because obviously there's a lot of European places up for grabs.

15:48Jim Campbell: But Sunderland are in Europe. Okay, Palisar due to winning the Conference League but there's, you know, the reason why they won the Conference League is they got it to Europe obviously via the FA Cup. Bournemouth are in Europe as well. You know, the size of the clubs, Leeds United are an enormous club. It is within the realms of possibility that in a few months' time they're still hanging around the top ten and, you know, dare to dream. I mean, it is, much was made about the quality, the overall quality of the Premier League last season. And I think they were looking at the top of the league. They were thinking, well, yeah, Liverpool weren't particularly good.

16:24Jim Campbell: Manchester United are still, I mean, despite their improvement, you know, they're still not the Manchester United that we've known for a number of years or, you know, from yesteryear. Newcastle United had a bit of a drop-off as well. Man City and Arsenal were the ones going for the title. But other than that, it was kind of, nobody was really sort of pulling up too many trees, but the mid pack in the Premier League with, you know, Brentford as well and all the clubs that you know, that's where there was real, you know, the quality has improved a lot. I think the floor of the Premier League has moved up as well.

16:57Jim Campbell: You see it already in the promoted sides with the exception of Coventry City, who I think there is more to come this season, certainly for their sakes, I hope. So I think with Leeds, you're thinking, right, join that middle pack. And just keep on digging away and see where you are come Christmas, maybe into the new year, because they'll be there or thereabouts. I cannot imagine for a second this Leeds United side will be relegated. In fact, some people will be thinking, we're talking about using the R word with regard to Leeds United. So what I mean is, therefore, if you are in that middle pack of teams, you show the fight, you show what you're made of.

17:37Jim Campbell: It is possible. It is their dare to dream. I was saying the other day, I think with Brighton, again, for them, with so many teams not looking in great shakes in terms of top five, we could see something quite spectacular from, I don't know, I fancy them slipping into fifth or something like that. Come on, come on. We say this every season and it doesn't happen and we're four games in. We've said it every season since Leicester City won the league. Exactly. By jovi, Jim. I think, you know, the Premier League and all who sell within it, the right. But anyway, I'm so excited by Leeds. You're tipping Brighton for the Champions League.

18:16Jim Campbell: What's happened to you? I'm tipping Dominic Calvert-Lewin to get the winning goal off the bench in the Nations League final. Come on! Here we go. Now we can move on. No, I think, yeah, I think with Leeds United, they've got a reason to be optimistic. As you say, all the fans, you know, 99 % of the fans asked in that survey. Very, very positive. A performance like this just grows the confidence. They'll have the setbacks. Every single team in the league will do to varying degrees this season. But as I say, Daniel Farker has properly got the bit between his teams this year, carrying on from last year.

18:48Jim Campbell: And also as well, he was doing an inverse pep, wasn't he, with his players. So it wasn't opposition players, it was just his players. Because after a full time, he appeared to be giving James Justin and Ethan Ampadu and Brendan Aronson some advice on what they should have been doing for the goal. And again, that is the mentality. He's not, of course, they'll celebrate the victory. Of course, they'll be pleased with that. But he sees that and he's like, no, we want to be perfect or as near perfect as we can. It's not the same squad that teams above them have. You know, they don't have some of the players that Liverpool or, you know, you name it, Man United or whatever have.

19:25Jim Campbell: But what they have is they have a great collective spirit and they do have a bit of quality in there. I'm still waiting for Harry Wilson to kind of turn up and start whipping a few in from 25 yards. And also, Ellen Droad is a massive asset. It was so loud last night. It was a brilliant thing. And there's an opportunity to turn that into a fortress. And I imagine that informs why Farker was so annoyed about them conceding the goal. And another thing I thought was really good about yesterday from Leeds' perspective was against Brighton, they had a few decent chances and probably should have won that game.

19:58Jim Campbell: And they took those chances yesterday. And to score that many goals, that bodes well, right? They've got to be a bit more clinical, and they were.

22:13Jim Campbell: What did you think of James Trafford's performance in goal? Because it was a couple of times where he maybe was lacking the intensity of everybody else in a white shirt or in the home ground. I understand. He nearly got caught a couple of times. Yeah, Johan Wisser pressed him a couple of times in the first half, and it seemed to be like, he was sort of like, is he allowed to do that? Yeah. He's in my box. Well, ref, what's he doing? He's running right at me. Yeah. Have they been playing a lot of five a side in training? The attackers aren't allowed in the key. He can't go in the box. He also had a couple of iffy moments with his feet, didn't he?

22:51Jim Campbell: And I wonder whether that's something that's just a symptom of the game being pretty straightforward from his perspective or whether it's something that he's actually going to have to work on but well i mean we know he's very highly rated goalkeeper but yeah i did did have a couple of um question marks for me there about his distribution i mean he's obviously come from manchester city i mean he's played football you know he's played a bit elsewhere but he's come from man city where the goalkeeper is unlikely to be pressed that often yeah because you're so worried about you know what what could come in behind and yes he didn't play a huge amount for them, but, you know, he played enough.

23:27Jim Campbell: And maybe he's used to thinking, right, you know, say you're only a few games into the season at Leeds, you know, he's used to players moving in certain places and so on. So maybe there is a little bit of adjustment to be done there with obviously Leeds playing in a different way. But as you say, I still think it was a great signing from Leeds United and I fully expect him along with Dominic Calvert-Lewin to be in the next England squad. And it's early days as well. It is early days. But yeah, But it's going very well for Leeds United at the moment. Daniel Farquhar currently talks over a new contract.

23:59Jim Campbell: Eh? I'll tell you what. That might have put an extra little digit or two on the side. Leeds Managing Director Robbie Evans has said, the club and Farquhar are on the same page over it. He wants Farquhar to be at Leeds long term. Because his current deal runs out at the end of the season. I was slightly surprised. But then, given all the chat about how Farquhar hasn't had the best of times in the Premier League prior to the previous season. And I suppose, you know, they were waiting to see what would happen. But 2026 certainly brought Leeds United some much better fortune and surely it will give Daniel Farker a better contract, you would think.

24:36Jim Campbell: Yeah, we'd think so, yeah. And it's well-earned, isn't it? The turnaround is quite stark. I mean, people do tend to link it back to that change in formation against Man City last December. There's obviously more to it than that. But it is, it's rare that such a singular moment brings about such a kind of visible change in a team. It's great stuff. Should we talk about Newcastle for a minute? I was about to say, we've waxed lyrical, I think rightly so, about Leeds United. But yeah, Newcastle, it was a bit of a bruising defeat and a crash back down to earth. They've started the season well. Yeah.

25:08Jim Campbell: But as Yaisler said in the press conference, it feels shit. Yep. He said a sweary word. Enjoyable. Yeah. Not the worst kind of swearing we've seen from a Newcastle. United manager over the years in a press conference but we'll leave that there but yes Geisler he was he said he didn't want to dig out any of his players and I get that it would be quite early and unwise to do that but clearly he was disappointed with the lack of intensity and how easily his team got bullied absolutely and again I think there are um you know extenuating circumstances for that the Nico Gonzalez situation that we've already touched on Joe Linton being missing dan burn is missing antonio langer um didn't start as well and he's he's somebody started the season well um so you'd expect him to be able to have an impact but yeah i mean it's a stark contrast in terms of the physicality that we're kind of used to from newcastle and i think part of that is the personnel that we've just mentioned but i think they're about to undergo a quite drastic change in style under isler um and that comes with growing pains right so i think there are going to be times where you get results and performances that aren't quite there yet.

26:18Jim Campbell: There's a lot of young players coming in there trying to sort of learn their roles full stop and also learn the connections with their teammates. I think that this is kind of really inevitable at some point during the season that the Newcastle are going to have a few games like this, particularly when they're kind of facing those absences. Despite that, though, I think some of the senior players didn't really step up. there are players in there like Chow and Bottman and you know Harvey Barnes is in there there are players who've played a lot of games in Newcastle yeah I mean I think if you're interested to see what they do in the next game I think that it is we have to remember as well Yaisler's very new to the league yeah and he's learning and you know the players have left etc etc You know, I think if, obviously the manner of that performance and the result was very disappointing for Newcastle, but as things stand, I mean, they've started better than I think a lot of them thought they would.

27:21Jim Campbell: You know, with a draw against Liverpool, so they beat Spurs, drew against Bournemouth, who they've beaten before, and then, and here we are with this loss. So, you know, I don't think it's a terrible start at all to the season. That is a bruising one. And that should make everybody sit up and go, right, okay, that's what opposition, a lot of other teams are capable of in this league. I, if in the next game Newcastle are back at it, then I, you know, you just write this one off and go, right, it's a learning curve for some of the new boys. You know, Dedic has had a good start to the season, for example.

27:53Jim Campbell: And they've had some, you know, they've faced some decent sides, but they've not faced a settled side like Leeds yet in the league. If you think of when they played Liverpool the first game of the season, of course. Yeah, the first game is always a bit weird, isn't it? First game you can usually write off to an extent, okay? But they get, you know, they don't lose. They get a sort of positive result. They play Tottenham Hotspur. Well, again, the epitome of unsettled for large periods of certainly this year. and they play Bournemouth who themselves are showing a bit but again new manager and so on and so forth Leeds United they know what they're about yeah and so you know and they're at home under the lights under the lights favour the home team usually so I think that Newcastle will probably just lick their wounds write this one off and go right okay let's get back at it yeah absolutely I don't think there's any cause to sort of panic not after four games no no absolutely but I mean I think there will be banter slung at Newcastle fans about that stuff, I would imagine.

28:57Jim Campbell: It's just best to ignore that stuff, isn't it? I think part of the problem is the midfield, isn't it? There was so little service to the forwards. Mateus Fernandes Pardo had a pretty anonymous afternoon. Johan Wisser pressing James Trafford and spooking him. Those times were basically the most we'd got from him as well. I know they did score a goal when Toure came on, and he looks an exciting prospect as well. So that's one positive to take from that as well. But they just created so little. And they're a work of progress, quite simply. And I think that, you know, the physicality is massive, isn't it?

29:30Jim Campbell: They need to get up to speed with that. I mean, Leeds really bullied them. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So Yasser's got to look at that and say, right, come on. For those of you who are new to this league, get on with it. And those who already know this league, well, blimey, what have you been playing at? Positive news for Newcastle United, though, is that Lewis Hall has signed a new long-term contract with Newcastle United. Of course, that's a setback for Manchester United, who had him as a transfer target in the summer and tried to sign him. Yes, because it is simply impossible to do any sort of football-related broadcast in 2026 without there being a setback for Manchester United.

30:06Jim Campbell: Every day a different thing. Every day. Every day. So, yes, a great win for Leeds United. A thoroughly enjoyable performance for them. Before we go, though, Jim, I want to do a little story from Brazil, which popped up yesterday evening as well. Philippe Coutinho has linked up with Neymar at Santos. Isn't that lovely? Yeah, there's a photo of them. On holiday, presumably. No, this is a football story. Oh, for work? Yeah. In 2026? You wouldn't believe it. They're still working. Neymar did, sorry, Coutinho, I think, did take a little bit of time off because he said he was quite emotionally tired from a previous team.

30:47Jim Campbell: But he's joined up with Santos. And there's a lovely photo of him and Neymar as teenagers. And obviously there's a contemporary one now. But apparently when Coutinho walked in to the club, Neymar was there and they embraced each other. And Coutinho, or one of them, said, if this is a dream, I don't want to wake up. Oh, that's nice.
