My point was that the way we started this season, we should be miles above Wolves given how shit they are. We aren't certain to take another point this season never mind the 2 games in hand and even if we do, we still won't be far above them. For a season that promised so much, it really hasn't delivered a great deal. They were 2 points ahead of us after this game at the start of December: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55039201 Pretty sure their start to the season was their best ever in top flight in recent times and they only really got bad after losing Jimenez and we had our purple patch in December. Interesting we were only 10th back then despite winning our first four. Edited April 25, 2021 by VillaChris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow. You really think it's likely we won't take a single point from our next seven games? If we win tonight we'll be six points ahead of them with a much better goal difference while they have five games to play. Win tonight and they'd need to win two and draw one of their five remaining games to finish above us, even if we didn't gain another point. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjw63 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I don;t think Brizzle City have won a single game since lansbury turned up. They were 2-0 up today against Luton, now losing 2-3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Them who went in to the season with expectations of European football and us after surviving on the last day went in with low expectations We finish above them and somehow its still poor?

Then I look and see he’s got 20 goals in all competitions this season already. Goes go show how you’re pretty much guaranteed goals with good players around you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KAZZAM Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Every time Harry Kane gets injured he's 'out for months' in reality has back after a few weeks. No idea why the deception every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds don’t play like a small team, they don’t give the opposition huge amounts of respect like we do. And we end up collapsing more often than not, rather than stealing a win. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not having that They are having an awful season. We absolutely SHOULD finish abover them. My point was that it's a damned shame it's even close. The way we started it looked like we would be doing much much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
