2021-02-09 Thread Robert Heath
We all know that Bielsa has improved all of our players immeasurably. One of the things which still astonishes me is the way he has taught them how to step in front of an opponent to win the ball. Christiansen wanted them to do that, but all they did was barge into the player and give away

...thought last night's game was going to be very sticky and was only hoping, optimistically, for a score draw.   Palace were very poor and we could have scored 4 or 5 or 6 on a different evening.  Still, two was good enough! Ten wins from our first 22 games and a Goal Difference of 0.  Cannot

 Well that was almost too easy - I was never worried that we may drop points   after the early goal, just a bit of “ will we regret these misses “I think they were the joint worst team we have played ( with West Brom)We are looking very secure in mid table now a great achievement especially when

Struijk did miss 2 v good chances and had one well saved. All from corners or free kicks. BUT as the eternal optimist I'd rather conclude he's getting into the right position, and it looks like something we've been working on. Cooper seems to use him as a battering ram and near the end of the

Mike, It's not just Leeds who are drawing very few games.  Both Sheff Utd and Aston Villa have only two draws from their first 21/22 games too.  Your point is pretty valid otherwise. The frothy results of the first quarter of the season have mostly disappeared too.  What will it be like when

It is amazing how some of these players have stepped up. Yes they make mistakes but Ayling, Dallas, Cooper (and even Alioski to a degree for me) have been absolutely fine (despite how much I swear at them during games.) Alioski I think has really improved. He seems calmer, looks backwards

Agreed Tim - we don’t need to be in Europe yet, and really it’s just media commentators talking about it for the sake of something to say. It must be the case that some of our first team squad will leave this summer - Alioski appears Galatasaray bound, Tyler Roberts needs a move, I hope to God
