I haven't tbf, I still think of Everton as a top 6 team and was hoping you could take points off of City.
We are far far away from that. Nowadays we sit hoping other teams around us lose as we inevitably will too.

What business does a team full of plodders like Schar, Burn, Longstaff, Wood and Willock have doing in the Champions League positions? They've not even spent that much already.

As good as Haaland is, he is defo not a player I tune in to watch play. His football doesn't move me
He's like a mallet. Lacks any form of grace.

Reminds me of one of those SUVs with 700bhp, amazing what they can do but just looks ungainly and about to go wrong.

Same, his game is all about what he does in the box. Mind you, he is fantastic at that. Reminds me of Ronaldo in his 30s, just finds a way to score. But unlike Mbappe, he doesn’t have abilities that get you excited.

This Leeds kit is like the pitch is full of players warming up.

There are a lot of really rubbish teams in the league this year. Us, Forest, Bournemouth, Southampton, Wolves and Leeds are all guff. West Ham and Leicester having terrible seasons too. It’s embarrassing to be in the company of this shite and come out looking like one of the worst teams in it.

Think Southampton and Forest look certain to go down. If you sack Lampard sooner rather than later, you have the squad to stay up.

I agree, I often thought similarly about RVN. His stats were very impressive but he didn’t have that have gold dust to his game that draws people in.

Who the hell is the ref in the Leeds game. He’s so out of shape he has been old man jogging and walking around the pitch and has interfered with play multiple times. He’s barely even in the picture on most transitions.

edit: it’s Simon Hooper

I reckon he is going to get the Brighton game. Lose that and he’s gone.

He can have no complaints anyway. Given a lot more time than he has deserved.
Yep, said it before, I don’t think he’s a bad bloke and I wanted him to do well but he’s now Benitez levels of bad results wise and we didn’t accept it with Rafa and shouldn’t accept it with Frank.

Do Leeds look like doing us a favour? Would be really great it Saudi Arabia started dropping points, they've been annoyingly consistent this year.
