Love the optimism though!

Man City drawing at home against Everton. These matches happens. Not too dissapointed really. More glad to be in a position generally speaking where teams like Leeds celebrate a point like a win against us.

They've played us like a fiddle in the end here.

Heehaaw just callin' it like i see it y'all

I don't think we're playing particularly bad either. We're clearly the better team so far, and Leeds are running around like rabid dogs chasing down every single ball making it very hard to play. If we don't get a goal soon, I am confident we will when Leeds players start to tire & we introduce ASM & Wilson.

Hope Wolves go down so we can negotiate for the transfer of Ruben Neves with 1 year left on his contract.

He almost certainly has a knock, will bump heads at least once today and still play perfectly fine for 90+ minutes.

Aren't there rules kicking in soon that will limit how many players can be loaned out, and then reducing this amount over a few years? Think we're too late to exploit the loan system the way Chelsea has.

Credit to Faes for continuing. Bet there would have been a few players around that would have asked to be subbed after that half.

If there's even a hint of truth to those rumors, I almost feel like supporter & fan clubs of us, WBA & Villa at the very least should make a joint statement to Norwich fans & ownership. Ask them to donate the severance pay he'd get to a local food bank or something & save themselves the hassle of paying this leech a wage to actively take the club backwards.

We're undeniably good, but Leicester on a mission to redeem themselves after last match + early goal boost probably makes our score look better than it was.

Paqueta is nothing like the Dennis Wise scouting implies. Even if it doesn't click for him, it seemed like he at least was hard working and physical but he's basically been strolling around the midline circle doing nothing but misplacing passes.

Don't want Jorginho purely because he would become designated penalty taker. Don't care how much he'd improve us.

It's the classic "how would footballers of today perform back then" compared to "how would footballers from back then do with better technology/training, lighter ball & boots and better training". Easy answer is nobody knows.

They gave Moyes money. Seems like the type of manager to get the best out of a limited but disciplined and hard working squad, but don't know how to utilize genuine quality.

At some point we were/are going to lose anyway and Leicester were also on an upwards trajectory and has a lot of quality, so a loss away to them even if we were playing them before the WC was not beyond me.

I am glad we have VAR. Most issues I've had with it up until now has been the people using it. As shit as VAR is, it is still early days and will only improve. The ref today great example of why it was needed. In before someone tries their luck with a "ref clearly too used to VAR" excuse. Not valid.

Nevermind. Burn charges up the left side twice & crosses ball in just as I press submit

Could do with Targett on for Burn and hope we can create a bit more from the left side. Not to say Burn has done anything wrong. Bournemouth very defensive and making it hard to create chances. Should try to stretch them a bit more.

Schar dead already Will 100% finish the game nontheless.

But he's the one that approved/sanctioned the transfer, isn't he? Maybe after all these years of stories about "X scout recommended Y player to Newcastle but they didn't buy him for reasons and he's now world class at Z club" we now have someone in charge that isn't afraid to take a chance on raw talent so we can have a few of these as well?

Finally!! Bring on Bournemouth & Leicester!

"Small feeling" -> "don't want to give too much away" -> "???" -> Back by end of April

The wording of the tweet from the club doesn't exactly imply it is an agreement they are happy with.
