  1. Move on to the next target. We shouldn't be anyones second choice these days. If true, get the lad from Monaco and move on.
  2. My only worry with Botman is his slight lack of recovery pace and his appetite to go to ground for tackles. Other than that, he's a beast, dominating defender & future captain who could be the base of our backline for 10 years. Ala Kompany. I trust our scouts and AC Milan / Maldini tend to be decent at defending I'm in.
  3. Super excited if we get him. I'd rather him than DCL or Toney. Can play wide with Wilson if needed, but up top as he develops. He looks similar in many ways to Wilson, so hopefully with his mentoring will grow. Looks technically and mentally top draw. - his awareness and calmness on the ball it great for his age also from those clips.
  4. Disagree. Difference was a little luck and a bloody good gk who had a good day. Feel Liverpool edged it on the day but weren't clinical enough or had that slice of luck. That's football, right!
  5. These look like young Parisians to me like!
  6. They look like French lads to me.
  7. He's a 6/10 quality squad player and local lad, who could be an 8/10 with coaching and consistency in my opinion. Sensible move, no harm. Trust in Howe!
  8. Player of the Season: Big Joe Most Improved Player of the Season: Big Joe Most Disappointing Player: Chris Wood Signing of the Season: Bruno (But special mention for Burn) Goal of the Season (feel free to rank your top 3): Miggy top corner Game of the Season: Arsenal On the pitch Moment of the Season (we all know the takeover was the off-field most important): Shelvey Free Kick Leeds Manager rating out of 10: Howe - 10 Season rating out of 10: 10 considering it started with Howe.
  9. Still irrelevant until we have to play them, and that wont be for a while yet, maybe even another 5 years! Unless we hit luck in the cup. Clubs are on very very different paths these days.
  10. Can't figure out this yearly obsession with a fountain, when most wont even take a bath the other 11 months of the year. And the Shearer song is just cringe. Absolute bunch of clowns!
  11. It's business. All the bed wetters need to wake up. It's part of the deal, right? Not like they changed the Home or the Away. It's a Third Top. If it helps expand the Brand and support the club I'll take it. Bigger things to worry about in the world.
  12. Absolutely desperate for an athletic physical DM who can still use the ball. Bruno is amazing but he should be the link. Top that with two wide forwards with an ability to score goals. Dubs fucked up but he's not the priority. Honestly think we ran out steam a little today too, we've had a killer season with a small group, both mentally and physically shot.
  13. Nothing new today, some decent players. One of two worth keeping long term. Most not good enough - credit for Eddie for what he's done. Wood, Captain Fantastic and Longstaff the pick of the shite! I'm fully in the Wood is the worst striker I've seen after today. That fucking header! Jesus!
  14. Shearer is our greatest goalscorer. He'd have hated playing with Maxi. Even when he does do the hard work and could create, he tries to overcook it and the striker has no idea how, when or if to time a run. There's zero consistency to his game. Plus Mane busts his balls every game. That kinda comment will be why Howe will sack him off. Talks like he's fucking Messi. He's done nothing to even consider himself close to Mane yet.
  15. Gulf in Class, evident and expected. I stuck up for Wood last week but Jesus Christ! lol... Wins nothing in the air, has a first touch like a Wood Door and is constantly reacting on his heels. Maxi was hugely disappointing too, for a future Ballon d'or winner Thought Bruno was quiet too tbh, but again expected against one of the top 3 teams on Earth. Never expected anything, Back to be 6:30 am here!
  16. Recently got to watch Barca play Seville at Camp Nou. Kept a really close eye on Carlos... Really confident, an absolute specimen of an athlete and actually had a lot of composure. Seemed similar to Schar in his approach to bring the ball out, but with a little more of a steely edge defensively. No real scout report or anything new, but was good to see him live. Definitely looked the real deal.
  17. That little ball roll before the dink was sublime. Truly Brazilian! It's all too easy for him.
  18. Woods played a large part in where we are now. Yes, not the answer to start next season, but let's not go on a witch hunt. What's the point...Leave it to Howe to decide. Seems a little more qualified than most of us. We'd all probably have ended the season on 6 points.
  19. Folk talking about not signing him, need to give themselves a shake. Should be the first signing and will be great for the next 5 years. Maybe becoming a back up after the next 1/2. His attacking game can be encouraged as we retain the ball better and we get a stronger midfield and attack. Must sign for me.
  20. Love Eddie! We're lucky to have the guy. Class act! Fingers crossed we grow together and he becomes a legend.
  21. MOTM alongside Shelvey and Bruno for me. Great block in 2nd Halve. Grafter!
  22. Needs some pace up front alongside him. But also needs to pull his head out his arse. Embrace a little of the Bruno energy to play in front of a packed St James.
  23. Class Act this lad. Must sign.
  24. You beautiful Brazilian bastard Some player! Big win!
  25. I honestly don't think anyone wants him tracking back and sprinting. Just hold the shape and occasionally press when triggered. If one player (him) doesn't bother, it alls falls apart. Little effort here and there and he'd be golden. It's not a lot to ask really...
