Kev has just scored with a sweet little touch with the outside of his foot. Every Leeds player is scared of him.

Thus your post becomes possibly the worst, most ill informed statement in the history of the GPG. That really takes some doing.

I suggest watching a different sport in future.
He’s got form - some similarly spectacularly bad takes on Igor and Chief Keith.

You know what I love about Kevin? When we were playing out from the back, he was there just able to receive the ball, make the right passing decision, be the out-ball, but keeping it rather than losing out.

He is such a good team player. And then that goal...
 

Kevin Schade

Scored and caused a hamstring injury for defender
Exactly my point.
Even when he's having a bad game, he still keeps the opposition on their toes, as he is good in the air and his pace can create something from nothing.

Yet we have people on here moaning he doesn't smile enough 😂🙈🙈
 

Kevin Schade

Is the statistic mentioned about us never losing when he scored accurate?

If so, over 2 and a half years, that's quite some stat.

I’m hoping the rumours are true on twitter that he’s in talks about a new contract. Of course, I know it’s hardly breaking news however it’s positive to hear that we are working on it and it’s an option and that he’s not made a decision to look elsewhere.

Obviously I have no insight so just speculating but I wonder if the biggest sticking point will be a release clause rather than the wages. You don’t often hear about them with our players but I can’t think Kev will sign anything without one. I imagine we’ll be aiming for somewhere a little north of what we got for Mbeumo but obviously Kev’s camp will be trying to knock that down.

I imagine we've been talking to him about a new contract for a long time.
It does appear to be a statement of the bleedin' obvious but the Arsenal reference does it no credit.

Also the same being reported in the BBC's "gossip" column today.

That's just because they are reporting the fact that Teamtalk published the story, not because they have any insight themselves. All that gossip column does is aggregate online rumours. I wish it didn't exist because people misunderstand it and think that it's a new source from a legitimate organisation when it's actually nothing of the sort.

Release clauses are really only of value to players who think their club will stand in the way of good transfers and put silly valuations on to hold them against their will. That’s not really us now is it?

If Schade has a great season he’s going to command a big fee due to high demand even without a new contract. If the maximum potential signing bonus and wage from an Arsenal level team is the be all and end all he won’t sign. But a great season may well see him playing CL for us and getting into Klopp’s plans for Euro 28. Aside from money we remain a very good medium term option for him.

Still not sold on Kev, too inconsistent for my liking.

I’ll admit he has started this season on a positive note, hopefully he can level up this year and cement that spot.
Keith talks about Kevin in today’s press conference. What he says may not change your opinion, but it does offer more ‘insider’ knowledge about the person and the player, himself.

Many wide forwards tend to be inconsistent, if they are consistently good the opposition will double up on them, but that in turn will free up space for other players. Kevin is played as an inverted wide forward, encouraged to move inside onto his stronger right foot to have a shot or a cross. He has suffered that he hasn't had a full back with a strong left foot to produce a quality cross from the byline overlapping him. KLP has been great at left back but he mostly also cuts inside onto his stronger right foot. I feel Kevin will become more effective going forward once Diouf is played at left back.

Time for a real left fullback to start.

I hope he's ready for tomorrow. I believe, once he's really settled in and developed a good understanding with Schade, it's going to be electric.

Two proper proper goals this afternoon. His second is a thing of beauty, he makes the half volley lob look very very easy but it really wasn't. He had a superb game all over the pitch. Great to hear the crowd recognising it too with a "Schade again olé" chorus or two.
 

Kevin Schade

That second goal was supremely well taken. He made it look so easy, but it really wasn’t.
I am embarrassed to admit that the skill and composure took me a little bit by surprise. My bad.

But, but, but...
He can't control a bag of cement...
His first touch is worse than a group of Primary School kids.....

Don't see much from the sell Schade brigade these days perhaps they are eating a large slice of humble pie right now
Not sure as he does either need to be sold or sign a new contract as we are past the last two years now of his current deal. Arsenal are apparently interested

As much as those demanding his sale seemed to have something fundamental against him….

Can we not enjoy a player improving without using it as ammo.

Last season was not his greatest. This season, been brilliant. Can we just leave it at that?
 

Kevin Schade

Cool Kevin Schade, cool Kevin Schade

At the time – and rewatching it a few times after – I think it showed his instinct and skill is absolutely spot-on; there was no hesitation, he just saw the opportunity and hit it as if it was a session at Jersey Road. Like many excellent players, if there's a lot of time to think about it then he'd be closed down and the criticism lands. He needs to trust his instinct more.
 

Kevin Schade

Oh they will find someone or wait until Kevin has a remotely off day then come crawling out of their shells again
There were plenty moaning about him on the matchday thread as usual yesterday, even after his first goal. Apparently he goes down too easily (tee hee) and was responsible for Muff's first goal - even though Ajer basically passed it to their scorer. So the micro analysis of his performance and meaningless interpretations of his body language persist. Despite the fact he's arguably our best performer at the moment. At least they had the sense to pipe down after his second....
