  1. Incredibly misleading. They were bought at the same time Xia bought us, not NSWE. Ie They have owned Wolves for 4 years, NSWE have owned us for 2.
  2. Not this again Has this ever happened in British football? No examples of players who were bought back and went out on loan for a season or two before being sold please.
  3. Hope the Saudis are watching. Dismantling a CL contender like this is why he has to be the top choice to lead their £1bn rebuild.
  4. He does look fairly mobile. I'm trying not to judge him too much as it's all still a bit disjointed and he's not playing where I'd expect. Tbh these next few weeks are such a weird situation I can see a lot of sloppy football. The drinks breaks are killing momentum in so many games. The easiest thing to judge from players will be their mentality.
  5. Stumbling backwards in reverse instead of turning around like a functioning human being would? That's one for the thread.
  6. Interesting how far forwards Berge is playing. Seems to be first man in the box most of the time. I've not watched him play but thought he was a deeper midfielder with a good passing range. Anyone else watching on NBC? "Joe-alan-tonne".
  7. And Leeds play really high intensity football so will be hugely susceptible to injury during the fixture congestion. I can go back and forth all day if you want, but I think I'll wait for the Fulham game. I don't really care either way. I always quite wanted Leeds to get promoted again until their online fanbase became obsessed with us.
  8. No, it wouldn't. Shows that anyone can beat them though. Cardiff really have not been great today. Btw their next game is Fulham so if they lose that it's 4 points.
  9. 2-0 Cardiff. Both goals from lazy passes at the back from Leeds. I think they might have a sending off or two in them this game.
  10. I'm sure some of these have been posted here before. Quite a few were new to me.
  11. OMG are you saying she was a co conspirator and knew before the fact? "Remember to indiscriminately stab anyone you see in the park, but you can't under any circumstances let more than 3 die as I've already updated my Twitter status"
  12. Of course they're favourites. Doesn't mean they can't bottle it. It's not that inconceivable they lose 3, but Fulham will probably need to beat them in the next match. Although their performances have largely been very good, their results under Bielsa have been so inconsistent. Remember the difference in form his first season before and after Christmas? Bamford misses so many decent chances there is always a good chance of them limping to a few 1-0 defeats when relying on him for goals.
  13. Leeds playing way better than Cardiff and applying constant pressure...until a sloppy pass out from the back that went straight to Junior Hoilett who scored from from outside the box. I wont lose hope of the annual Leeds/Bielsa collapse until they are guaranteed promotion.
  14. We desperately need pace. Is Matty Cash quick?
  15. My mate who supports Utd text me to ask who he was and say he looked really good. Which he was apart from that absolutely ridiculous pass. I was living with him when we first signed Hause so he saw those disastrous first few matches and was surprised it's the same guy.
  16. I'd recommend starting with A Brief History of Time (or Briefer) if you've not read it. It's pretty easy to digest and helped me understand a lot of concepts I couldn't get my head around.
  17. I actually agree with Keane. There were a few occasions he was strolling about with others around him pressing or slowly jogged back as Sheffield United attacked. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt as it was the first game back after a long time, but I don't think what has been said is particularly harsh. I know the 'wry smile' is a bit of a football cliche and people do react in that way to a mistake. That said, I've felt my blood boiling a few times seeing Mings piss about with the ball for no reason, ending in him almost giving a goal away and seeming to find it very funny. Don't think it would bother me if it didn't happen every game.
  18. I'm with you. I think it adds more attacking threat and with Davis I don't think it would hurt our defensive work rate at all. Our closest (upwards) rivals negative GD is 4 less than us. Maybe it comes down to goal difference, but with our fixtures and 9 games left I'd be surprised if we made that up sneaking a few 1-0 wins. We might as well go for it and try to bully their defence. Their midfield is decent so I'd like to see Grealish playing there and I definitely think their defenders are susceptible.

    Do you read?

    It's not the best book ever, I just really loved the story and Gothic dreariness when I first read it. I was only about 12 mind! I'd never heard of it when I read it which I think helps. I often find myself being disappointed at anything I've read/heard hype about.

    Do you read?

    Has anyone else read anything by Carlos Ruiz Zafon? I read Shadow of the Wind when I was a teenager and really enjoyed it. Just saw that he has passed away at only 55.
  21. Because it's meant to be infallible and eyes are overrated. Guess Dean's been fiddling with the sensors.
  22. Luiz looking so much sharper challenging for the ball.
  23. Is Michael Oliver holding Davis to social distancing rules?
  24. Pointless isn't it. Read that we'd be split across both dressing rooms too.
