a m ole Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I love the ‘sArCaStIc CaPs’ meme to be honest, it really gets a point across, however Bamford isn’t really using it in the right way, because who has confidently said ‘VAR is making the game better’ that he’s supposed to be mocking?

I agree they will struggle next season. Very easy and lazy comparison to make. Sheff United stayed up with their top scorer getting 6 all season. they added to it with an unproven young player in Brewster. Leeds with the way the play have plenty of goals in them due to the way they play. So they won’t struggle worrying where their next goal is coming from. Even if they don’t hit the heights of this season they’ll still create and score enough to get enough wins. Remember if they play defensicely and draw 3 games or play attacking and win 1 of 3 they still have the a same amount of points, so losing games doesn’t effect them. Attack is the best form of defence Add to that any players they bring in. defensively both centre backs we signed have been injured for months. Meaning fullbacks have been playing CB, midfielders have played at both fullbacks. That won’t be the same next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he had real talent years ago at Boro but hadn't really progressed, but hes come good at Leeds .Both Watkins and Bamford offer different qualities. Yep.

Most leeds fans know he has great skill, they just can't understand why he doesn't focus on that instead of deceiving the refs.

Still misses quite a few, but he's scored some absolute quality goals and he works hard. Nor would I. It's strange how many chances he misses.

He does focus on that, which is why he’s top of creativity rankings in the Premier League. The people who don’t focus on his skill are those who constantly bang on about how he deceives the ref - which he very occasionally does, but mostly just puts his body in places where he wins free kicks. I understand people not liking that, to be fair, but it’s very different to blatant diving to try and win penalties or get people sent off - a la Bamford, Ayling, Alioski. I’m sure you agree, too.

bobzy Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Also, BBC running an article about Bielsa which is literally no news at all. He hasn’t decided on his future and may or may not manage Leeds next season. Basically the same as every other **** manager in the league - but this one is headline news 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must sting them so much that after they went down, for 20 years their best players left every season to go and join the likes of Norwich. Whereas ours stayed and got us promoted. Then signed two new contracts. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Twenty years outside the top flight? I thought they were away much longer, hadn't missed them. I wonder, this must be why their fans seem like such words removed. Again I must reiterate the social media comments from their fans about Grealish since we were in the Championship were absolutely disgusting. I'd never really had an opinion about them up until then but I detest them now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
