Shit

Watching Leeds play out from the back is terrifying if you support them.

Leeds are actually really quite bad, if we would press and attack them a bit we'd probably get a result, I'm worried we might anyhow. Need a second goal to relax. What has this club done to us?

40% possession, improvement.

Is not a very good defender, he's a bit rash and there is always a mistake lurking. Nice player though, just not in central defense.

Very impressive so far.

Excellent start.

Actually he is worse, he’s got competition but he’s absolutely appalling.

Villa were very impressive tonight, routine victory coming over Bruce's sapless talentless idiots.

Not offside. Once Mings touches it, it's a new phase of play and so not offside. The law in this case is however an ass.

Best 0-0 ever entertainment wise.

Awful goalkeeping, put it out for a corner don't palm it out to a Chelsea player.

For months now Ando has been getting people excited with talk of things being just round the corner. If fuck all happens in January, will his inevitable February one-liners still promote optimism? Fuck off mate. You clearly don’t want this takeover to happen, nor do you want others to believe and/or take pleasure in belittling those who do. Ask your employers to send you back to London where you can cover the Glory of Leyton Orient and tell your fellow fans what they should and shouldn’t expect. Everyone is sick of your shit. If you don’t believe it will happen then stay off this thread. I don't usually have a problem with your posts but you really shouldn't tell people to keep out of the thread unless they believe that the takeover is going to happen. That's some kind of fascist take on the freedom of expression. I don't believe the PIF takeover is going to happen, they publicly announced they were withdrawing their bid and have said nothing since.

The dots are joining..... Why are the dots joining? That presumes the PL blocked the takeover for piracy when most people think it was because they weren't prepared to submit various people involved in PIF including the only one that matters to the OD test.

I'm just a little bit embarrassed that I half cheered their goal. Not really. Fuck NUFC, fuck Bruce and fuck Ashley

Nobody knows that maybe not even Ashley, how come you are so certain?

Fofana must be one of the best young defenders in the world, he's had our best player, which isn't saying much admittedly, in his pocket all game.

So what's the problem with Bielsa? The way he plays, the lack of tactical flexibility to adapt to the individual games, or just the players aren't good enough to play the way he wants them to. They will obviously stay up, probably finish mid table, but if they want to kick on and actually challenge for anything, something will have to change.

This has been an extremely Rafa like defensive performance, committed and brave, credit to the Bacon man and the players for this one.

If/when we get sucked into a relegation battle I think PIF may well just withdraw anyway. PIF have withdrawn and very publicly. Whole thing's just taken too long. Needs to go through next month or else that's it imo.

My assumption was that Ashley's case is about financial compensation for him, nothing to do with trying to force through the takeover.

West Brom are playing well second half and at least trying to threaten Liverpool a little bit

Should be our #1 now or until he fucks up badly. Seems less error prone than Dubs.

Ashley is the problem of course, Bruce is just a distraction. If his only remit is to keep us in the premier league he's probably going to be a success.

City have regressed so much the last couple of seasons, makes you wonder how good Pep really is.
