Leeds United

Kalvin screams Liverpool or Man Utd to me.
Probably moreso the latter.

Yeah, United badly need a DM

Think it’ll be Rice though, more of s statement signing and they’re all about those.

Yeah it’s fun throwing names around, but can’t we just get a couple of certified killers up front?

Really ? I think the Canaries, Burnley, Newcastle and Watford are all worse.

Leicester and Villa can count themselves lucky there are about 4 or 5 teams worse off than them this season

Don’t forget us. :grinning:

I think Burnley have been surprisingly better and they’re the cockroach of the PL so they’ll find a way to survive.
As for Watford, I think people look down on them but they’ve been playing some really good stuff, got them some big wins(Villa, Everton and Man Utd) or at least made it extremely tough for their rivals to get through them.

I think if Leeds keeps this up they’ll be bottom 3 by Christmas.

Still expecting a Southampton and Brentford collapse.

Yeah, to be fair it’s been real tight so far. Top 10 are still within reach of Top 4, and bottom 10 are all relatively close to the relegation zone.

Things will be clearer after Boxing Day.

I’ll say every club 12th and above is safe.

Don’t they have some key injuries? Tough to keep flying so high as a little guy. A bit of coming down to earth this season as well

Hope you don’t mean Dan James.

I do, still young. Wouldn’t want us to get him of course but I think he still has a place in the PL.

I just can’t understand how teams can’t produce stereotypes like Kalvin Philips.
Ordinary as fuck robots who just sit in.

He’s crap

Not interested in a discount feo regen

Ha, that’s disrespectful to Walcott

Would probably take Dan James three careers to net Walcott’s tally for us

I can’t understand for the life of me why Bielsa has the reputation he does when he clearly can’t adapt at all. They should have just set up to be tight today with what they had available and not let us cut through them so easily, just seems like utterly poor management of a side in their situation.

He’s just the type of manager who a lot of the current crop of managers learned a lot from when they played under him at a young age. But the people that learned from him have clearly surpassed him.

When people talk him up to be a managerial great I find it truly bizarre. He’s a one trick pony.

Leeds’ current mess is entirely of his making too. He’s run the players into the ground with overtraining at a time when players have been subject to intense schedules for well over a year.

Yep. That’s why his style only works with kids too because they’re high energy donkeys who can run a lot and buy into the type of idea Bielsa has. He can’t work with senior talent because they don’t see the value in his approach.
