Leeds have the narrowest age range of any EPL team. It's a policy, no reflection on Gray

Oh, but look at the money they brought in on the sales side. Ah, um, maybe not.

He also thinks set piece coaches are a terrible idea - note Rogers went over to thank his set piece coach after his goal. 🙄

I actually rate Nmecha and Gudmundsson. Money on Bijol, Perri, Bornauw was just wasted. As for DCL he's Bamford 2.0 which wouldn't be so bad but Farke never made Bamford 1.0 work.

He was thinking the Villa players would shift to create a gap and was concentrating on that gap, Rogers kicked it into the place he wasn't covering. You'd expect better from that level of goalie tbh.

Did you have time to do a Hockaday one?

If we want to lean into the whole "limited" theme

They had the 4 best wingers in the league, backed by 2 of best attacking FBs, and could bring on 2 to kill the game when the oppo FBs were tired. They now have 1 fit winger, are in mini-league of 6-7 better teams and are pinging long balls to Bamford 2.0 when Farke could never make Bamford 1.0 work

Of that lot, I'd take Bielsa, that's basically it. And he won't come before the next World Cup (even if he wanted to). But i think we need a Director of Football first.

There are plenty of good managers around outside the Prem. When Marsch was sacked we were in for Iraola and Slot (and didn't get either - left it too late); none of these people making betting markets had heard of either. Problem now tho is the team that found us Bijol would be finding us a manager

We were at a screening of Pet Sematary (1989 version) in Aldershot and as the protagonist carried yet another corpse back to the cemetery where he knew damn well it would rise and turn on him there was a loud "Oh for heavens sake" from the back of the theatre. Fair point.

To be fair it sounds like they were due a bit of luck

In my experience, if you need help going slower, use atlassian
