Manuel Posted 24 February, 2022 Posted 24 February, 2022 Wolves 1-0 up "doing a Southampton" at 60 minutes.

Hopefully they won't improve by mid April.

I have a feeling one or two Arsenal fans might self combust by the end of the game if they don't get an equaliser. They are an upmarket version of Burnley: horrible to play against but they grind out results. Hopefully, Arsenal have burst their bubble tonight. That's the first time for 3 years Wolves have lost after scoring the opening goal. I channel switched between the Emirates and Ibrox. The Rangers v Dortmund game was much more entertaining. What a brilliant performance from Rangers over the two legs and what an incredible atmosphere at Ibrox.
Piran Posted 25 February, 2022 Posted 25 February, 2022 Yeah, I watched Arsenal/Wolves, too. I thought that in many ways Wolves and Saints are very similar. EXCEPT when the ball was played towards the Arsenal defence, when I would expect to see Saints pressure on the defenders, but the Wolves players all immediately raced back to form their 'wall'. And, boy, they could certainly defend, though it didn't do them any good in the end! And despite his late own goal, and one notable blooper, I thought Sa was a great goalie.

Sa is easily one of the top 3 keepers in the country

In terms of value added it's between Sa, Dennis, Gray, and Tino for me. The others have had better seasons, arguably, but Tinos age compared to quality and price put him right up there. Also Cucarella has been class. Amusingly amongst the worst transfers one would probably have to put Ings and Vestergaard, alongside the likes of Lukaku. Edited 26 February, 2022 by TWar
Gingeletiss Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 My wish list for today is… Leeds to beat Spurs Brentford to beat Newcastle Brighton to draw with Villa Palace to lose to Burnley Man U to lose to Watford Everton to lost to City

Brighton are a much better side than Villa with more points so pose more of a threat to our top half finish imo. 1
Lighthouse Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 I wasn't hopeful of Leeds doing much today but 2-0 down in 15 minutes against Spurs.
LiberalCommunist Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 Leeds are so broken right now. They are unlucky to not have pulled a goal back, but they look like they could concede any amount again today.
adrian lord Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 Mmm. Was hoping to catch and overhaul Tottenham before the season ends.
Jimmy_D Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 Leeds right in it now, bad luck on top of leaking goals that badly...
Lighthouse Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 3 (or more) goals conceded in five consecutive games for only the second time in PL history according to OPTA (Sunderland were the other in 2005). 1
markr27 Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 (edited) If Burnley beat Palace, and Newcastle and Everton get a point each at least (I know), Leeds will end the day in the bottom 3... how likely was that a few weeks back?! Edited 26 February, 2022 by markr27
cloggy saint Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 Bielsa must be on thin ice now. He may be a decent manager but I have zero respect for someone who's lived and worked in a country for four years and hasn't bothered to learn the language.
The Cat Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 Hope they don't sack Bielsa before we play them. 1
Chris cooper Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 No ASM for sandcastle.. eriksen on bench for the bees.. come on Brentford!! 2
Jimmy_D Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 This should be about 5-3 this half alone. Shocking finishing on display.
OttawaSaint Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 (edited) We always talk about that one team that seems to drop life a stone and ends up relegated despite being much higher up most of the season. That team is Leeds. They've been woeful in 2022. Edited 26 February, 2022 by OttawaSaint
Jimmy_D Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 As I say that... Son and Kane breaking the record for combining for goals is mightily impressive, especially as it’s not at one of the clubs regularly competing for the title.
S-Clarke Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 (edited) This is what you get with Belisa, it's a right old ride for a time but when it goes wrong....it often goes catastrophically wrong. They miss a focal point as they have no centre forward really, Bamford has been a huge miss as has Kalvin Phillips. I don't think they'll go but they're be in and around it for the remainder now. Edited 26 February, 2022 by S-Clarke
Jack Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 Stupid but deserved red for Brentford. Really poor standard this, they both look like championship sides. Come on the Bees 1
OttawaSaint Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 Ffs! Twatcastle getting all the luck, I hope we destroy them!
S-Clarke Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 Hmmm, you do start to worry about Brentford if they lose this one. They're right in it now.
OttawaSaint Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 Now Newcastle lead. Gateshead born and bred Joe Linton with the goal... 1

OttawaSaint Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 (edited) Villa 1 up at BHA. Commentator says no team has gone on to lose more games this season despite scoring the opening goal than Villa (3). Edit: sitter missed by MacAllister of BHA Edited 26 February, 2022 by OttawaSaint
The Cat Posted 26 February, 2022 Posted 26 February, 2022 That Pompey scoreline is bizarre. They've just won 3 in a row and Fleetwood haven't won in 6. Sadly Pompey just got one back. Not out if the question they'll get something from the game.
