Things were looking rough there for Leeds but when you factor in the at least 40 goals a rejuvenated Bamford will score between now and the end of the season I think anything less than 4th or 5th and questions will need to be asked

When was the last double header in the top flight? Feel sure I read a guardian knowledge when during one of the terrible winters in the 70s there were so many postponed games they had to do multiple games on the same day to get through them

We can trace the infection from Brentford to Spurs to Norwich with Ivan Toney as the initial unwitting vector.

Would hate to be the last team to have played Brentford and just coming to the end of a lengthy series of injuries to key players. That would be of concern

In the same vein why is Harry Kane only referred to by his full name at all times by commentators, as though if they said 'and Kane only has the keeper to beat' I'm going to assume he's about to chokeslam him and fires going to come up from the corner flags

Pogba is a clown and absolutely nowhere near as good as he thinks he is. I hope someone snaps him in half

Nodding sagely at this, but would rather he gets paid a fat wedge in another league then knocks man u out of Europe while doing seven trademarked goal celebrations at once

It is interesting that ralfs got his big boy boots on straight away. Usually man united managers wait until they've completely lost the dressing room before they start throwing their weight around

Just watching yesterday's unpleasantness. I mean you can play with all your silly machines etc but that last penalty was not a pen. I have seen them given though and wasn't expecting a huge amount from the game. Add it to the 'played really well but could have done with a bit of luck' pile

After the equaliser I did do a lol at Chelsea just casually bringing Lukaku on while Leeds replaced Dan James with a 12 year old which has been the problem all season. No Phillips, no Cooper, bench full of toddlers. City away on Tuesday should be a laugh

Leeds haven't had any outbreaks or any players saying they've not had the jab so I'm taking this to mean that bielsa has done a 9000 slide PowerPoint explaining why they need to be careful, and not just that they've been told to not be stupid on social media

Crooked man city not postponing tonight's game in the middle of a spike in infections, desperate to sneak a win past a Leeds team that's not even running on fumes because the fumes have run out. Sad!

Was straight on the web looking for juicy details when arteta said he was dropped due to disciplinary issues hoping he'd chinned someone but he just came back a day late from compassionate leave. Very arsenal levels of disappointment

Fairly comprehensive pasting that. Not entirely unexpected but you can't handwave away a 7-0. Need a result against arsenal on Saturday or I'd be concerned about going into the January window when we clearly need experienced players to fill in the gaping holes in the squad (and a replacement for raphinha who is clearly going as soon as a bid comes in) and bielsa just will not sign them

Don't even know who we'd get in if they sacked bielsa. We have sensible owners now rather than petty small business tyrants so I know they'd at least think about it but I can't shake the dread that id wake up and it'd be loving aitor karanka or something

Gonna assume this was the plan all along and the blatantly bent reffing of the last week has been an attempt to ensure as many Big 6 clubs are in the top 6 as possible.

Listen I know it's selfish of me but I hope they go ahead with the boxing day fixtures, a full round of games with my turkey sarnies and quality street, what could be better than tha-



on the other hand we should really be paying attention to the data and taking a long term view, better to postpone imo

I'd be happier if they didn't release their janky as gently caress reasons for being poo poo

Huge disagree. Get them up on match of the day and make them watch the footage and talk through exactly why they've massively bottled it. Parade them through the streets so the children can laugh and throw rotten veg at them

we could arrange a boxing day watchalong for a classic game instead

like that villa vs stoke (I think) goalless draw that had no shots and actively provoked people to self-harm

That sounds like an excellent idea op. Idk if we'd make one of those weird synchtube things or just click on the link bang on 3:00. You'd also have to find an actual match and not some guy commentating over a still image for 90 minutes. A world cup final maybe?

“Should the players and the managers be all together and make a strike? Just through words it’s not going to be solved. For Fifa, the Premier League, the broadcasters, the business is more important than their welfare. The simplest example is all around the world they have five substitutions; here it’s still three. Tell me one argument to take care of players’ welfare than this one? Here, where everyone decides for themselves, we didn’t do it.”

Clubs that can't field a team and therefore depriving us of boxing day foot should have to forfeit with a double point deduction

On the contrary the selfless teams that have sensibly decided to cancel to try and flatten the curve should be given bonus points and immunity from relegation
