Did Leeds just promote the maintenance guy to manager?

Leeds fans are often bemoaned for being a bit Neanderthal, but a couple of things I've enjoyed today: Shouts of "MAN ON!!" and, Singing lets go fucking mental. I know its childish but it gets the crowd excited. Mental doesn't have to mean pull down the fences and attack the coppers.

I'm satisfied with that. Solid defensive display last time out, and a few with something to prove. I think we'll be up for this.

Sure, but we need to create that freedom for him. I think our high press allows him to operate in the positions we want him to, but against teams like Forest it can backfire if he's too advanced, which I think at times we were. But luckily our advanced position allowed Schar to do what he did.

He made things happen against Forest from a DM position. His position on the pitch is dependent upon the gameplan. I think Forest sitting deep did a good job of nullifying everything he made happen due to the lack of an extra attacker in the box. I can certainly see the argument, and right now he's the best option for both positions, I just think we'd get more out of him with another attacker than with another defender.

On their day they can destroy anybody, so worrying about getting destroyed is a waste of energy. Focus on how we can destroy them.

Yeah. I guess, finances might dictate this, but I'd rather have a Pulisic and a Maddison, keeping Bruno as the DM.

It's either us or Palace. And we've got the home advantage. Ah, shit.

He's a top DM with incredible passing, and can chip in with a fair few goals, but to make him our goal threat is wasting him. We need a Maddison/Cannibaga to be the goal threat.

It's how Wilson got his goal against Forest, drawing the CB out allowing Wilson to attack the near post for, I think, the first time.

That happened to me one night, a lady called Deidre [I know]. Laughed me out of town. Then we bumped into each other after closing. Nobody was more surprised than me when we ended up searching Pudding Chare for somewhere to fuck. Sticking with my 3-2 prediction. We'll take the lead, then go 1-2 down, but score two in injury time.

When information is free for all, people will pay handsomely for misinformation.

Mbabu could fill the LB slot since his best performance for us was in that position.

ar looks into two goals that weren't flagged for offside, one is onside by an inch the other is offside by an inch but the offside was is a clear and obvious error? Seems like VAR is also culpable for clear and obvious errors.

If Grealish was worth 100 million, I'd agree. fact is he's not.

Richarlinton.

This exactly why we need to keep the camera out.

3-2 Brace for Miggy and one for Wilson.

I love him for loving Miggy.

Good post. I'd love nothing more than to build like Brighton, or Leicester. I'm not particularly interested in the wealth that might be available, beyond what is needed to catch up, I just want a club that we can talk about with pride. Historically we are a bigger club than Brighton, but that means nothing these days, and they currently stand as an example to us. I appreciate the remarks about getting the right character, but it worries me [worryingly] that Brighton failed to buy the solution to their attacking problems, during Ashworth's time there. Probably explains why we're looking at youngsters.

You have to look at the tangible results of sportswashing. Football has had such a good influence on Qatar that they are now accepted as a World Cup host. That could be Saudi Arabia in twelve years time.

Nah. As leaders of the free world we hold you responsible for what we laughingly call freedom. Edited to paraphrase: We hate you for our freedom.

Worrying.

I thought it was us that were close to signing him, before his injury, and then Man U arranged a transfer during his injury, but you're probably right.
