Today’s Football 2020/21 Season

[Saint Domingo]

Leeds are inconsistent but against certain teams like Saints they are kryptonite.

We sadly are one of those sides who just cant deal with a high pressing side.

How did we beat Leicester Wolves Arsenal, and draw with Liverpool and Leicester? I would be surprised if Leeds beat us tbh.

Klopp "... and we've had to deal with that (adversity) since the Everton game"

 

[duncs pigeon]

null and void i reckon

Dunno what the answer is mate, but as I said a strange season. Imo, dont think alot of these results would have happened with fans in the stadiums.

 

[Billy Dean]

Bielsa’s Leeds bum Leicester. Terrible result for GOT’s Dyche enthusiasts.

team v leeds

---------------Pickford--Virginia---Olsen---------

Coleman-Holgate-Keane-Mina-Godfrey--Digne

---------------------Doucoure-----------------------










-----------------------DCL-----------------------------

Could really do with DCL dropping a bit deeper there, also needs another 'keeper.

Its the big one boys. Let's pretend this is everton. And moyes is going to score yet another impossible derby victory. Cause let's face it Moyes has more chance beating Liverpool before Carlo Ancelotti has with Lion Heart Toffees.

If I could pick one of the RS to be missing from this it would have been Mane.

That front three for the RS today, Shaqiri, Origi and Salah.

I'd put money on a Shaqiri wonder goal to bail them out of a poor performance somewhere around half-time after he's had his inhaler.

Was thinking that myself, Shaqiri and Origi to tear West Ham a new one.

COME ON WEST HAM

What is Tyler on about

 

[Old Blue 2]

I respect all your posts mate but do you ever give yourself a day off? Leeds are bottom half and out of the cup to Crawley. They might beat us we might beat them. Leicester we’re going to smash us twice apparently but we were a Pickford error away from doing the double on them. All the teams are inconsistent this season.

Exactly. Carlo has had one transfer window and brought in 4 good players. The term 'transition season' has been overused in the past when a top club has been struggling, but it can be truly said that we are a club in transition. This season is a season 'in transition' for us, in preparation for what we should achive next season. With luck, quite a bit of the dross will have been moved on, and better quality brought in.

It is easy to bemoan our in-and-out performances, but consider the following, as of now:

3		Leicester	21	12	39
4		Liverpool	21	17	38
5		West Ham	21	6	36
6		Tottenham	19	14	33
7		Chelsea	21	12	33
8		Everton	19	5	33
9		Aston Villa	19	13	32
10		Arsenal	21	6	31
11		Southampton	20	2	29
12		Leeds	20	-1	29

It is probably a situation that we could only have dreamed about, pre-season. Nothing is guaranteed, but I wouldn't swap our position at the moment with that of, for example, Arsenal. They would bite your hand off to have a couple more points and a couple of games in hand.

So don't get distraught with this crazy, topsy-turvy season. Stay level-headed, and expect that come the summer, and fresh signings, we can move from an average-to-bad squad to a good-to average squad, with the attendant improvements that that will bring in its wake.

 

[N.S.N.O.]

Amazing how often Tyler points out opposition players who were boyhood Liverpool fans...literally the only club he brings that up about

Card for thiago

 

[MikeH72]

Well West Ham look terrified of a Mane, Firmino and defence-less Big Red.
