On the cuntometer...

 

Sunderland

Man United

 

Then after that it's all pretty tight for me.. 

 

Chelsea

Arsenal

Everton 

Spurs

Liverpool

I don't even know...

 

Leeds are so much more respectable than say Burnley or Wolves or many other clubs which makes them more likeable. I reckon Fulham and Leeds are closer to my PL likes than dislikes.

 

 

 

 

They were great entertainment when they came up under Bielsa. Farke has them in a more resilient, hard to beat mindset. Evident when we went down there, was a tough game.

I'm already mad about it.

It's been obvious since he signed his new contact that this was the plan, just feels like the process has been sped up now

 

He leaves for 100m in jan, they get to spend whatever they want in the next 2 or 3 windows, and they'll be fine!

[Scoot]

Things are looking good for Liverpool, Isak and Salah.

 

[alexf]

This is all manufactured bullshit. It's gonna play out exactly as predicted. Liverpool want him gone, Salah wants to go and now they can try and justify a disgusting unrealistic fee because he signed a new deal. 

 

They got £40m for an old legs gone Fabinho like 2 and half years ago so god knows what they will get for Salah. Shouldn't be anymore than £20m max at his age and with his crazy wages. 

[Lucky]

They’re properly turning on the rat.

 

[Decky]

Only way I see this going is the Saudis giving them big money for him and then Liverpool play more to Isaks strengths without Salah in the team unfortunately.

[andycap]

Salah as he is now is worth nowhere near 100 million fair market value and all that. I'd stick in a complaint if I was on the toons board.

Salah’s not in the team now and Isaks been mostly anonymous. I don’t think they will ever “play to his strengths” like we did here, he’ll have to adapt or fail.

[Lucky]

After how they fucked us around all summer, I’ll be so pissed off with PIF if they bail the dippers out. This is 100% where you just let that toxic situation fester.

Well hopefully it continues.

[SiLvOR]

The fact that there's a mural of him

[alexf]

Completely forgot for a sec that the Saudis are our fucking owners.

 

But yeah of course they will bail them out. They gave them £50-60m that no other fucker was gonna give them for Nunez so they had enough cashflow to sign Isak this summer so nothing is surprising.

[Danh1]

Fantastic how this is going man. Could never have dreamt it. Would’ve been satisfied for him to go there and just score the odd goal and not fulfill his price tag but this is going horrendously. 
 

And after that interview he done, he quite clearly doesn’t have the bollocks on him to turn it around.

 

YNWA Alex, except when you’re shite. 

[TaylorJ_01]

When he's not banging them in, you really notice his frame. He looks like a pencil

[Ellis H]

Ekitike scored twice today mainly just by working hard and staying alert. He didn't need the whole team built around him.

 

The fact that Slot is openly referencing Murphy's significance is majestic and it sums up the transfer entirely. They bought him because they could but didn't stop to think if they should.

Aye. Proper club, proper fans.

Not a criticism but I never ever got the feeling that Leeds was a football city when I lived there. Whenever the cricket was on at Headingley it seemed like a much bigger deal to everyone and rugby seemed like it was as popular as football as well, possibly more actually.

My mate at work is from Leeds and I think has lived there his entire life. Great lad, but he played Rugby for years and coaches youth cricket as you allude to their preferences. He does attend plenty of matches at Elland Road though and knows his football. Like I said, top lad, but I did notice a Yorkshireman can be quite cocky.

[McDog]

Also, just watched the final whistle on the Leeds-Liverpool match I recorded earlier. My thoughts? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. 

[elbee909]

There's no way Liverpool would accept money from Saudi Arabia. They've said multiple times they're too moral a club to do such a thing.

It’s not traditionally a football city at all. The Revie years in the 60s / early 70s marked that turning point. The club has a big catchment area obvs and I’d wager the fans who fill that dilapidated wreck of a stadium (I was there for a conference in summer and bloody hell) travel as far as any from the surrounding towns and villages. 

[Smal]

when Bielsa was manager and they painted a load of murals over the city it felt like a football city. Was pretty cool.

 

A lot of people go to the games from the surrounding towns and villages though yeah, and a lot of those people also like rugby, the freaks.

 

I don’t think I’ve been anywhere that gets near the level of Newcastle in terms of feeling like a football city though, so you guys probably have an unfair standard to hold everyone else to

Its the opposite, tbf. Rhinos fans are generally from sub urban areas a bit outside, football fans generally closer to the City Centre. Its still not a footballing City, though.

Let me guess, showing off about basic human decency and attributing it to being from Yorkshire?

 

Yet to meet a man from Yorkshire who isn't like that.

Nah, just making references to Yorkshire being superior to Lancashire in every way. He may come up with that though.
