We gave away some shite goals though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes young enough that it's forgivable right now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouUnastanFren Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 This isn't the first time the kid in goal has had a stinker. It might be age but I am starting to suspect he might just be one of those keepers who has an uncomfortable ratio of bad games to good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted January 2, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted January 2, 2021 Another glorious heavy defeat. Why can't more managers get on board with the joy of letting the opposition score oodles of goals? What's wrong with them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no other club had a rest? Also leeds had won all 5 prior to lockdown & in fact lost 2:0 at cardiff first game back. Pundit, no homework. Wonder how much she got paid? Is that right? I didn't know that. Well in that case..... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 They are quite naive. A bit reminscent of us last season. I think we have found the much better balance between defence and attack this season. Long may it continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 They're clearly a decent team but also absolutely nothing special. Their fans and most of the media refuse to believe that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got a mistake in his locker and I'm not unconvinced by him on set plays but they also asked for him plenty in build up so that sort of error is inevitable. Alternative is Kiko Casilla and he was awful for them in championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozvillafan Posted January 2, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted January 2, 2021 That penalty for spurs.... surely the original contact was outside the box, even if the player fell down in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a weird one, it looked like the ball and attacker (mainly) were in the box but the defender was just outside. I'm not sure what the rules are in that case, I assume it counts as a penalty in the laws but **** knows when VAR get involved. Probably toss of a coin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 I actually thought the initial challenge was outside the box, but then Alioski’s trailing leg catches the Spurs player inside the box just afterwards. They’re two separate points of contact so I think the penalty is correct, but incredibly marginal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their fans and most of the media refuse to believe that though. FWIW, they’re currently 4th in the league for shots/game and shots on target/game, 3rd for possession and 2nd for tackles. That’s pretty good going for any side, let alone a newly promoted one. Ultimately, though, they’re just conceding far too many goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
