It's probably as good as it gets with his freakish Megamind head.
Give him a Cech helmet and send him on his way.
We're shit, shit, we are shit
Leeds look to be having a serious go at fucking up promotion again.
Leeds blowing it again?
The goal they conceded was a complete joke, Nakhi Wells basically basketballed it into the net with his hand.
They need two forwards who can stick it in the net, their tee to green work goes unrewarded because Bamford is shit, but with Bielsa it's all about the theory.
Football probably doesn’t work like this but you think if they had some generic FL bagsman like Jordan Rhodes you feel they’d walk it. Certainly Bielsa doesn’t see it that way but every time I’ve seen Leeds in the past two seasons Bamford looks poor.
If you watch his interviews (which admittedly is not for the faint-hearted) he always goes on about Bamford's great physical characteristics, or whatever the cod Spanish is for that. I tend to think yes, but the Championship is a 46 game shitathon and to go up you need to burgle about 12 wins in games when you don't play well or necessarily deserve it.
Massive game at the Amex today, whoever loses is seriously in the shit.
Hopefully Norwich can firebomb Bournemouth's season.
Hesgoal down. Anyone have an alternative?

Haaland 23 minute hattrick after coming in second half on debut for Dortmund.
Also, are we all aware that Trent Alexander-Arnold's uncle is the Man Utd club secretary? The things you know.
Arsenal have drawn 11 games this season :cab:
Seeing Joelinton chilling up front made me think of other shit strikers and that led my brain onto Oumar Niasse. I googled him to see where he is now, my best guess was Turkey or the Arab world, somewhere like that.
Imagine my surprise when it transpired he came on for Everton. Today.
Callum Hudson-Odoi another on the long list of 'prospects' who is fundamentally unable to kick a football properly.
"Bruce Ball" in full effect.
We had that coming to us for the ponderous shite trotted out all game long. 11 right footers and did 0 unpredictable things in the match.
Newcastle have some truly comical players in their team but a fantastic manager.
I see the seemingly now traditional "you, no you" 4th place shit-off has started early this season.
Liverpool had better keep up their end of the bargain tomorrow.
Lol Haaland scored a hat-trick in his first game for Dortmund.
It's very odd to be going into the game with little to no pressure on it from our side.
We'll see whether that works in our favour or not.
Glad we managed that. Takes a little bit of pressure off the Everton game coming up.
Good of Norwich to try and drag Bournemouth down with them, but I still have grave misgivings for the Potter 'good football' project at Brighton. Some real six pointers against the rest of the southcoast shitters coming up. I'm yet to be convinced of the merits of possession without purpose.
We were poor in the first half. Brighton could've been out of sight. Fortunately a couple of smart changes (for once) and Jack Grealish happened otherwise we'd have lost that.
Grealish always plays well, and makes a difference, against Brighton.
Compared to the 132 GKs from the top seven leagues around Europe. Kepa has a 55.4% save percentage. That puts him 127th on the list.
At least it's a cold night. :D
:lol:
Oof
Luka Jovic only netting once in 13 for Real Madrid is laughable, scoring a few in the bundesliga was hardly enough to warrant that move, everybody scores goals in Germany, even Batshuayi.
Is the implication of that Kepa stat that he ought to have saved that goal yesterday? Seems harsh. He seems like he makes quite a lot of spectacular saves to me, so either he's chucking in quite a few he shouldn't, or Chelsea's defence are just shit.
He's a perfectly good goalkeeper. People want Lev Yashin.
'Save percentage' is a nonsense stat, you'd need to see xSaves or whatever for it to mean anything, and even then...
There is a reason why GKs who usually play for teams like Burnley make more saves than others.
The more interesting stats are how often they concede. Once every 68 minutes, according to FootyStats. He ranks 85th in terms of Premier League goals conceded, although that list is 150 players strong so that can't just be goalkeepers.
For clean sheets, he's at 23%
It really is an eye opener whenever I see any Bundesliga how suicidally high the defensive lines are. It's like defending just isn't of any interest to them. His second and third goals in that hat-trick were like something from the early 90s in England.
The best offside trap in history

If Man United shit their way to victory today then I'm going to be heartbroken. :moop:
You shouldn't be. Not that it'll happen.
But perhaps this is where it starts....and by 'it', I mean Liverpooling it. :D
