The Artful Dodger Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Back to the good old days of throwing away leads again. At least we have the warm embrace of midtable mediocrity now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Culture Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Sunderland are in real danger of blowing their season apart in a league that they should be romping. Too many players and the manager has no clue what his best team is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many players and the manager has no clue what his best team is. Luton are by far and away the best footballing side in that division though. They play really good football, it's no wonder they score so many goals. I hope they go up even more so now they lost Jones to Stoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan Posted February 13, 2019 Author Administrator Share Posted February 13, 2019 Not going well for Villa at all recently. Only 2 wins in 10 and now concede a late goal against their manager's ex-club. 1-0 to Brentford! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNA Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Wondered how we'd recover after losing that 3-0 lead to Villa but vital points today, we're quietly going about our business, albeit the odd bump in the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Massive win for us mentally that. We've had a wobble, pretty sure the whole 'Spygate' palava has knocked us off our stride with so much attention our way but we've really gone about our business well tonight. For 80 minutes, Swansea didn't have a single sniff. We have controlled the game, looked comfortable, been quite efficient without creating chance after chance and looked far more like ourselves. But in true Leeds fashion, we give away a silly penalty and have to nervously watch the last 5 or 6 minutes biting our nails. You could sense a collective sigh of relief from 34,000 Leeds fans at the end there. But we've won, got three points, gone back top and another game closer to the end. It's all about what we do. Can't open the door for the chasing pack. They are all cup finals now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like a dog with a bone you lot. Annoyingly won't let go and showing no sign of dropping off. Full credit to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 I genuinely thought we were playing Swansea away in the Cup last night so I left London for the night, could have gone to this. Jet lag is a right slag. Honestly I feel so wasted about this season, Maupay is the best striker we’ve had and it wouldn’t surprise me to see Prem interest in him in the Summer, but if not the likes of Villa etc will come calling.

Initially we did, they’ve lost Jack and have reverted to Type with Bruce style football at times. He needs time but we don’t have it, expect calls for his head soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you’re right you don’t, but if your club had done their research on him they’d know that this is normal with Smith. He needs time regardless of how big or small the club is.

Take him out the equation and it’s 50/50 possession and Hourihane is slow and we get over ran in midfield.

I expect to lose tomorrow and pressure will be ratcheted up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
