All of his books are great (but expensive and some hard to find) 

A few of his photos are in this temp ex in the tate atm

I think someone set up an insta for him last year and a lot of the photos are 
on there, lots of fun for people guessing streets

I was living in MCR at the time, went to see the Stone Roses' come back gig at 
the Apollo the night before, great gig and night, rolled out of bed and onto 
the sofa to see Brian Deane bundle one in with his knee. 

3-1 in the end, wasn't it? 

Great weekend

I was at that match over for Christmas with my in-laws.
We were in the south stand giving dogs abuse to Peter Schmeichel.
He turned around and applauded us….
It was a memorable win.

Dorigo's Right Buttock...

Re: [LU] Blackburn

2020-07-06 Thread Joe Skinner
You could argue their disallowed goal was very soft Harrison wasn't fouled, he 
was dallying. 

When you look at our first goal and a lot of people say it should've been 
disallowed as well... technically hitting the post is off target but even so it 
was close until they ran out of steam.

Do we think playing 4 defenders gives the rest licence to roam better? Instead 
of playing midfielders at full back?

White was immense, even striding about up front, not panicking about defending 
knowing he had actual defenders back there.

Thought Harrison was quiet on the right. He's better on the left. Possibly 
agree that him, Costa (and Roberts) is all a bit flimsy and lightweight 
together.

 Only one thing to disagree with here, and one thing that's missing. The

center-forward criticized for not taking chances actually scores, I think he 
deserves more than 5 out of 10. Bamford's also key to the incident that I was 
surprised neither you nor Dave mentioned in your match reports, which was the 
ref's inexcusable failure to send off the Blackburn keeper after he'd taken out 
Bamford. If the ref had done his job, Blackburn would have been down to ten men 
and we might have scored one or two more (with goal difference threatening to 
be important this season). The ref's lucky that the decision didn't affect the 
points, otherwise there'd have been much more heard about it, I suspect.

Subject: [LU] Blackburn

First 30 minutes was the most open game Leeds have been involved in this season 
and it really could have gone either way. They hit the post and had really good 
opportunites that they should have put away. But once we scored through some 
brilliant harrying from Klich there was only going to be one winer. Blackburn 
put everything into that first 45 minutes and as a result had little to offer 
in the 2nd half apart from one spectacular free kick, which was never a free 
kick in the first place, Philips was just trying to get out of the way. Our 
fitness levels are top notch and with 10 minutes to go rather than just hanging 
on for the win we continually pushed forward in wave after wave and really 
should have doubed out total. Even Douglas was crossing in the area late on. 
For me, this was by far our best performance since the restart and I think it's 
a performance that tips the momentum our way again. I think playing without 
Costa gave us a more solid look and maybe playing with Harrison and Costa 
together is too much of luxury. Meslier (silent S apparently) - 7. I thought he 
did well throughout. I worry about their goal as he his completely reliant on 
the wall when he stands that far left of the goal. It invites the taker to put 
it in top right corner and when he did, Meslier didn't even move. Compare that 
to Philips, at least their keeper was able to get across and make an effort, 
Ayling - 8. Bac kto his best, some good defence work and did well getting 
forward too. Douglas - 7. Arguably his best game for Leeds. Still unsure about 
his defensive abilities. Cooper - 8. Solid.
White - 9. Man of the match for me. Commanding with and without the ball. Luton 
was a blip. Allioski - 7. I thought he was busy and really worked hard. Could 
have had a couple himself if he had a brain when it comes to keeping on side. 
Klich - 9. I thought this was Klich at his best. His energy levels and work 
rate in that foirst half were incredible but more importantly he was creating 
chances and mking things happen. Glad he got his goal. 

Phillips - 8. Much better from Kalvin. His free kick was top drawer an 
hopefully we'll see more of these now he's bagged one. I thought he linked up 
the midfield well and worked hard. Harrison - 7. Not as involved as usual but 
certainly had his moment. Bamford - 5. I thought he was poor whether it was 
keeping onside or playing a simple pass straight to the opposition. Yes he got 
his goal and hit the post with two side footed shots but he needs to push on. 
Roberts - 5. Didn't do much.
Subs:
Hernandez - lively as always
Shack - came on and looked lively, I like Shack.
So on to Stoke, Thursday at 5pm , how fecking stupid is that ?

Harrison’s crosses are good - well, the best at the club. 

At least he gets the ball in with his correct foot, no one else does!

A bit like picking your favourite dog shit, I know

Corners are pointless, how many have we scored from? 2?

Got tackled or muscled off it twice, fell over once

Looked a bit slow!

Keep the faith i guess

But the bullet with lutv for a tenner

Anyone know how much the weekly one is? Because I have the £1:week radio one it 
won’t let me change or upgrade or even show me how much it is

Maybe because the match had started

IS Forshaw injured? Not that I rate him or Klich that highly, more that central 
mid is their natural position.

 Well it was his idea to go lunging in needlessly and deprive us of his

2020-01-23 Thread Joe Skinner
I find it all a bit bizarre but above my pay grade

There are things we’ll never know

After last season’s optimism I’ve gone for total negativity this season in the 
flawed hope I’ll be proved wrong and we get an automatic spot

Our collapse could have been much worse, West Brom has their own and are only a 
point ahead, other teams haven’t quite made the gap up 

As usual, some team will go on a run and put some distance between 3rd and some 
random team will get into the play offs

Someone may even catch 2nd

We could regroup and pull away, we only have the league to focus on

I know I’m negative but you can stick a fork in this season, we’re done - the 
parallels are just too close to not say it won’t happen again

Even if we sign a striker or forward who can score, how long to get him up to 
speed?

Re: [LU] Hull

2019-12-11 Thread Joe Skinner
I'm not suggesting we hoof it in the slightest. In fact, the total opposite. 

The final pass is often poor and a lot of the short smaller ones go astray but 
I don't really care. I like that we play football and, more often than not, 
play it forward. I think the passes are quicker than some of the players 
physically and we are sometimes over elaborate. Again, I don't really care. It 
works. 

There's a time for long passing, in fact a few recent goals have come from 
that. It's part of the fast counter-attack.

I hate possession for possession's sake. Like the Barca of old, or Spain. We 
don’t do that. It's more of a possession with purpose.

I don't know what game you were watching if what you took away for the 
performance was this report, particularly that we "hoof it!!!" 

592 passes 81% completion.  I think you have to take into account the type of 
passes we are attempting, to feet or onto runners out out from the back under 
pressure, doesn't always work, but almost always it’s a positive pass, rather 
than just to get rid.  

And when we do mis pass, we are onto it immediately and as often as not recover 
the ball.  I just can't understand how people can slate our passing 
(terrible/shocking/woeful), but it's probably down to my misfortune of not 
being born in Yorkshire.

Probably uncoincidentally, the 'Keeper has improved his catching a little but

Maybe no more White in midfield... 

Corners are terrible, stick to the short ones.

Very harsh, I think he's a very good trapper of the ball and a decent crosser 
and dribbler, again he's improved this season and it's a toss up between him 
and Alioski.

This match took a similar pattern to a lot of recent matches in that we had all 
the possession but failed to convert due to terrible final balls particularly 
on the right side. I thought Hull liked lively especially for 15 minutes in the 
2nd half when I think they took control but we managed to limit them to a few 
chances. Here's my scores:
Kiko - 8. You've got to hand it to the lad he's put last season behind him and 
now looks the part. Point blank saves to keep us in front in the last two 
games. Ayling - 7. Having suggesting dropping him in place of Dallas on the 
right, I have to admit he's played really soldidly recently and actually looked 
good going forward. Berardi -9. I thought that was possibly his best game for 
Leeds. First to every ball and didn't give their guys a kick at times.
White - 8. Solid as usual against tricky Hull attackers. Dallas - 8. 
Defensively did well. Philips - 7. Some good work. Got caught in possession 
once first half but got away with it. Hernandez - 7. Great pass to Costa for 
the goal and he was busy as usual. There was also a fair number of passes that 
went astray as usual. I like his corners better than Philips. Costa - 7. Looks 
lively and I like the way he moves across the grass and creates space. Needs an 
end product though and by that I don't mean a deflected OG Harrison - 5. Ok, 
I'm going to be slightly controversial here and say I don't think this lad is 
good enough. His final ball nearly always disappoints (ok not always e.g. 
Huddersfield) but he usually fails to find a white shirt. He also rarely beats 
his man. Bamford - 6. Worked hard but should have scored. Klich - 6. Lots of 
running but little end product.
Subs:
Allioski -9. Superb. I think he's a great little player and his crossing is so 
much better than Harrisons.

Pace as well. It’s all right pinging balls forward but he runs with it and 
people shit themselves although slightly bizarrely all the threat second half 
came from the right wing 

Not sure what formation we were playing second half

Thought Phillips had his work cut out today, one lad had him on toast for a 
bit, not sure he had much help though, in fairness

Maybe the 2 things above are related?

Re: [LU] Old ore season tour in 92ish

2019-11-26 Thread Joe Skinner
Neither of them sound like great games... 


They came they saw and they did nothing

Staff Reporter 11 Aug 1995 00:00

SOCCER: Andy Capostagno

If it’s August, can the English soccer season be far behind? Sad, but true, 
alas. And if you don’t think it’s sad you obviously didn’t see Leeds United’s 
two contributions to the United Bank Challenge.

At Loftus Versfeld, Mamelodi Sundowns outplayed the Yorkshire Monoliths, but 
only won 1-0 thanks to some typically English defending which stopped just a 
little way short of open brutality. At Ellis Park three days later, a Leeds 
side with four changes reinvented itself to the extent that it managed all of 
three shots on target in 90 minutes of goalless action, if action is the right 
word, with Benfica.

It was a match for which the word cynical might have been invented.
Two sides who had each been paid R1,5 million just to turn up, wandered around 
Ellis Park like models on the catwalk, afraid to break into a sweat in case it 
stained their designer shirts. Leeds’ most fluent movement began in the Benfica 
18 yard box and a few perfect passes later ended in the hands of their own 
goalkeeper. English football, reversing into the future.

“We were afraid of the altitude”, said Leeds captain Gary McAllister. “We were 
all breathless after Thursday’s game so we had to slow it down today”.

“The uneven pitch made ball control very difficult”, said Leeds manager Howard 
Wilkinson “But one has to expect that on a rugby pitch”. Leeds, of course, know 
nothing of such conditions, as Elland Road only hosts rugby-league matches and 
it is well known that the divots made by the union game are far worse than 
those in league.

Fortunately the sponsors’ blushes were saved by a vibrant main match between 
Sundowns and Kaizer Chiefs. Kenny Niemach, the goal scorer against Leeds, got 
two this time as Sundowns ran their oppo- ents ragged with the kind of constant 
movement that the English game is supposed to be famous for. Thankfully there 
was a generous helping of skill, something that the English game is not famous 
for.

United Bank have tried and failed for three years to get foreign clubs to 
reproduce their best form within South Africa and now must be the time to say 
enough is enough. Leeds were in the country for less than five days, saw  
nothing of it, contributed nothing to either their matches or the development 
programme and left weighted down with money. Sundowns earned a tenth as much as 
Leeds for winning the competition.

The isolation years are over and it is no longer necessary to anaesthetise the 
conscience of visitors with large injections of cash.

Foreign clubs should be paying their own money to come and enjoy the kind of 
facilities, weather and support that provide perfect pre-season warm-ups.

It is time, too, to put away our blinkered regard for English football. For 
about six years after England won the World Cup in 1966 the English first 
division could consider itself a world leader.

Since then it has produced a handful of truly talented players, most of whom 
were forced to go abroad to have their abilities appreciated.

Every team in the NSL has at least one player worth the entrance money to watch.

We should be concentrating on developing those players, not spending precious 
funds to bring over pin-headed bores like Leeds United.

I  was at the game at Ellis Park. The football was s*1t - the only thing I can

think it was Worthington but I'm not going to lose sleep if I'm wrong.

The best part of that evening was going to an all you can eat rib joint (don't

decided we'd have our own international event and see who could eat the most 
ribs.

England vs Zimbabwe - should have been a walk over but sadly we had to call it 
a draw - it was late and the restaurant owners wanted to close up and go 
home.so they kicked us out.

Still have a Leeds flag from that night gathering dust and moth holes somewhere

Re: [LU] Preston

2019-10-24 Thread Joe Skinner
I don't think Harrison's crossing is bad - I actually think it's pretty good 
most of the time, it's quick at least - the issue is there's no one on the end 
of them. 

That's not his fault. That's the team shape and make-up. 

The crosses from the right are pretty non-existent in comparison. As you might 
expect, with a central midfielder playing wide right, or an international 
winger who plays right back for his club pushed wide right. 

Not sure what Costa's 'correct' position is. 

I didn't catch the Preston game and I gave up on the Brum-cast from someone's 
living room, so not talking specifics, just generalities.

I’d go along with that. I don’t think it’s that’s we’ve been found out, just 
that teams have developed a way of playing against us that they know will keep 
them in the game, particularly if we keep missing tons of chances. 
I also think our crossing has been worse this year, especially compared to the 
early part of last season. Someone was telling me that Harrison has the most 
chances created in the division but this must be due to the sheer volume of 
times he gets the ball out wide - his completion percentage must be awful. Part 
of it though, is the difference between Bamford and Roofe. I lost count at the 
weekend of the number of times a cross went in and Bamford was just behind it 
or just behind a defender. I don’t think his movement in the box is good enough.
We still look confident in possession in deeper areas but lack something up 
front. I’d rather see Douglas have a run of games - I think it’s hard to judge 
him on the odd late cameo in games. If you think back to the West Brom game 
last season, Roberts was amazing at ten. Could he start a game there? I think 
we need someone in the final third who is going to run at defenders at pace and 
scare them. If Costa isn’t doing it, why not Clarke for a few games?
Eddie has to start on Saturday though

Re: [LU] Preston

2019-10-24 Thread Joe Skinner
Last season we had a different forward (Roofe) who scored some scrappy and late 
goals/winners

Not to say he could only do that. Different type of player to Bamford.  

Saiz for half a season reduced the creative burden on Pablo. 

Alioski played as a left sided forward for more games, than left back as he is 
nominally now.   

Whilst the majority of the team are the same - this season they don't seem as 
fresh. Not sure I buy into the high intensity = burnout theory that most were 
peddling but once thing is certain, we are not a 'new' thing for people to play 
against.

Everyone knows how we play now. Literally week in week out it is the same 
team/formation, home and away.  Even the laziest manager can see us on TV every 
week almost. 

Not sure what's going on with Clarke this season.

I think the 'failure' last season took it out on some players, mentally at 
least.

You can't do much about injuries.

I don’t have a season ticket so can’t be a serial moaner

It will be what it’ll be

This season or never

As much as the manager has improved the players he inherited- and massively so 
- we are utterly predictable

From literally picking the same team week in week out to picking it days before 
- confidence, over confidence, whatever. I kind of get it but the team isn’t 
really delivering 

They seem tentative. Maybe we expect too much. I know I do. I just want to get

Pretty shit game all round...

All over the shop.

That was just dire 

Keeper didn’t make a save until the last 5 minutes?

I just don’t rate our keeper but can understand why he’s in the team but fuck 
me, if you only have 2 shots a game to save, at least save them?

Re: [LU] LU: Eddie v Bamford?

2019-09-18 Thread Joe Skinner
It's more straightforward than that

He plays a player he 'likes' until that player is 1. injured, 2. unavailable or 
has 3. 'let him down'

Likes = rates, believes in, however you want to couch it. 

Even if they have fucked up (Ayling), he won't drop them. Either they can prove 
him right and vindicate him, or not. See 3. 

I can't think of a player who has missed out, who doesn’t fit the 3 criteria 
above. Even the first 2. 

He doesn't believe in rotation (unless it is a cup, which he doesn't seem to 
care about anyway)

I can only think a tweak in formation would bring a 'new' player in for someone 
else. E.g. dropping a central midfielder.

He does occasionally change it at half time, which could be an acknowledgement 
he got it wrong, or equally changed to suit the game dynamic. E.g. last week 
Harrison off, Costa on. Was Costa much better? Will Harrison start again, most 
likely.  

Unless Bamford is injured, suspended, has a shit fit or strop, I can't see him 
being dropped. Even if he had a goal drought.

Nketiah just joined, maybe still not up to speed with how the machine works

Bielsa watches him and Bamford every single day

We are Top

Bamford has scored goals and gets on the end of chances

And not being rude, but Bielsa has coached and managed at the very top and you 
have?..

In Bielsa we trust? I don't get why he insists on starting with  the semi out 
of form, frustrated and unreliable Bamford when Eddie is so sharp, full of 
confidence , terrorising defences and scoring for fun.

Is Bielsa trying to justify the Bamford purchase price by starting with him?
Is he relying too heavily on Eddie to put things right when Bamford is having 
yet  another off day?

Could it be that he's using Bamford to tire out defences to pave the way for 
the fresh legs and scoring habit of Eddie? Perhaps he was so impressed by 
Bamford's training ground exquisite volley that he's convinced he can

replicate  the same in real live matches?



I can't think why Edie wouldn't be in his starting line up. Have I missed 
something?

Not won at home in 7, though? Or 1 in 7.

Does the formation need a tweak at home?

Away, the onus is sometimes on the home team to attack and we counterattack

Should he think of two up front?

Costa in for Harrison at home?

He won’t but how do you turn dominance of possession into goals?

If bamford doesn’t score, we rely on the wide 2, the defensive 3 (unlikely) or 
subs

I saw someone else suggest a defensive coach. We must have one in that massive 
team

The first goal was sublime. Weight of pass, angles, anticipation, movement, 
finish.

I have watched them over and over, but I can't quite decide which was 
better.Pablo's pass for the first goal or Pablo's pass for the 
third goal.

But if I had to choose, it must be the first one simply because he had so 
little time to size up the angle and weight required but played it one touch 
and both of those were perfection.

Re: [LU] Philips

2019-08-22 Thread Joe Skinner
His passing can be a bit crap when it's of the penetrative or probing type but 
I don’t think that's his natural game, so wouldn't really criticise him for it. 
Hernandez should be doing a bit more. As could Klich or Forshaw. They do seem 
to rotate a bit though.

I think both of them get closed down quickly, which might contribute to it.

Yesterday's game was a bit weird. It's almost like when people switch off or 
get bored - some of the game was pretty soporific -  they get punished. Must be 
hard to play against. 

Couldn't work out if we were slightly off our game, or they were better, as 
they've bought some players.

Wasn't quite sure why we were obsessed with winning corners when the delivery 
and execution is so poor. 

Pace to burn off the bench, though. Perfect late game.

Amazon Prime is weird. I have Amazon Prime (because I keep forgetting to cancel 
it) and that normally means get free postage on some stuff. To watch it, I have 
to use my Xbox, which is just weird.

Then when you get it, half of the stuff you have to pay extra for. Not exactly 
overwhelming. 

Pretty sure someone will have ripped it to a torrent?

I can't bring myself to watch it really, a) it's commissioned by the owner, so 
as Sean said, sanitised and b) we all know how it ends (and Bielsa is hardly in 
it)

They're doing it this season as well?

Surely they'd have been better served doing last season as part of the overall

Interesting. 
I've seen various reviews and comments about the documentary. Some good, some 
less so. One of the criticisms was a lack of Bielsa, at least talking.

The problem is how to watch it? I know it's on Amazon Prime which I don't have

Re: [LU] Fwd: Kalvin Phillips' averageness in stats.

2019-08-15 Thread Joe Skinner
Who would you play him instead of?

Bamford? No. 

Harrison? Unlikely.

Hernandez? Extremely unlikely. 

He seems to like to play 3 in the middle away from home - these days that's 
Klich, Phillips and anonymous. Phillips sitting deeper - as opposed to dropping 
back into defence at home. So away, the width comes mainly from the wide 2 in 
the front 3 (because the full backs aren't pushing on as much) 

If one of those middle 3 is missing, Pablo has to play in the middle. Or 
Shackleton. Or who else, Dallas, which is no good? You can't expect Costa to 
play there. What is Dallas' natural position - winger? He seems to prefer him 
at right back? 

Costa/Clarke/Eddie all seem to be vying for the right to replace Harrison or 
Pablo, unless Eddie is an out and out forward who plays centrally? He (and 
Costa and Clarke) were interchangeable after about 30 mins.  

Who knows? He does what he wants!

Played it down a bit more, too control more

Not sure why we took control, it’s why I’m sitting on my sofa eating Nando’s in 
my boxers and bielsa sits on a bucket and earns £1m plus a year 

Either way, we did and the cross came from the right ...
Whilst we look vulnerable from crosses and direct balls, corners etc. You can’t 
really fault the football or continued attempts at football and teams of recent

Ironically (knives spoons etc.) the better quality is coming from alioski. Pity 
no one is there for it

I think we’re relying on Phillips to score from centre mid

[LU] Tonight

2019-08-13 Thread Joe Skinner
Thoughts on tonight's game?

If you park up who it is and the crap that goes with it.

Is it probably the best thing if we lose? Even if they are a poor league 2 side.

Personally, I hate losing games, it becomes a habit. We've become used to 
getting turned over in upsets - more so than before since we fell.

This season, more than ever, if we don't go up, I think we'll be marooned here 
forever. FPP, or the FL equivalent will be worse and worse the longer it goes 
on (as parachute payments get more and more and creative accounting gets more 
and more arcane)

Bielsa is only tied to one more year (currently) and I really can't see him 
sticking around again if we don't go up.

He doesn't seem to care about cups - witness that abject performance against 
QPR last season. I don't even remember the Preston game in the LC.

He also seems to want to stick with a small squad and we don't realistically 
have a chance in any of them, so less games is better?

I believe winning is a habit.

Maybe Clarke, Costa and the new forward/striker can get a game, ditto 
Shackleton. Although win, lose or draw, he seems to prefer to stick with the 
same team, either as a 'I believe in them' or a 'he has another chance to prove 
himself'. Who knows?

Well, apart from Biela.

Re: [LU] Forest

2019-08-11 Thread Joe Skinner
We’re not going to get many penalties this season if the team go to ground at 
the slightest touch. 

Looks like he fouled him in the build
Up to their goal, and hand balled it, or shoulders don’t count?

Either way someone should have done the dirty work and got rid 

The last 15 mins of the first half were flat, same as the crowd. Missed first 5 
mins of second Hal f but it was also flat too

Are people expecting us to win now? It went pretty quiet and their goal was 
pretty inevitable 

Needing to score 2-3 each game with that tempo, I struggle to see where the 
goals come from, we’re expecting the wide players to score as many as bamford?

He looks a bit stronger this season, probably a good thing.

Re: [LU] Eddie Nketiah

2019-08-08 Thread Joe Skinner
I've found the transfers a bit weird, too. Apparently we have to satisfy FFP? I 
can't believe our players are on that much? Bamford is apparently. 

Our best defender [Pontus] -- We already have like for like replacement [White] 
albeit on loan (do we have an option to buy?) - I think he'd lost it towards 
the end of last season. Believing his own hype and not doing what the Manager 
wanted. Brentford? Fucking lol. 

Top goal scorer [Roofe] - Agree this is a weak area. Piss weak in fact. If 
Bamford is properly fit...? We've got back for Roofe what we paid for Bamford. 
He had a year on his Contract and wanted what Bamford was on apparently. 
Ideally, I'd have sold Bamford and kept Roofe but that assumes he wanted to 
stay. 

and best youngster sold for millions [Clarke?] - we have him back on loan, so 
for this season, that's no real change but we have £10m. Assuming Spuds paid up 
front. We also have Costa on loan (with a deal to possibly buy?)

Also sold the 'keeper. Who I didn’t rate. I agree the one we kept is worse. Or 
might be a better shot stopper but keeps causing absolute panic when he 
constantly comes out. For a premier league team, £3.5m is peanuts and he's 
British. He might prove to be better than I think he is but to me he was a 
flapper and a bit weak mentally. 

to be replaced by an Arsenal U-23 loanee - The squad is weak. I think we need 
bodies. Pablo is a year older. 

It's probably more important we kept Phillips - as much as I don't want to like 
him (stroller and pointer), he improved immeasurably under Bielsa and is the 
lynchpin of the team - home and more so away.  Has he actually signed a new 
deal yet? In 6months he can sign for anyone and leave at the end of the season, 
although we will get a 'fee' it's set by tribunal if you're under 23? Or have 
the rules changed?

Next season is all up in the air. If we go up, the manager doesn't even have a 
Contract, so whilst I hate short termism, this season is all or nothing, so 
loan deals (Harrison, Clarke, Costa etc.) are fine by me.

You can imagine he'd keep some of the team (he is pretty pig headed) and we may 
even win some games if we went up but we'd also get pumped.

We need to get promoted first!

 I thought Jansson was a revelation when he arrived at Leeds and that season 
under Monk he and Bartley sorted out our defence which had been a problem for 
years that nobody had resolved. I liked the fact we just said to Pontus you 
just attack the ball and clear it. It worked. Since then it's been up and down 
for him. I still think he's our best defender but he's fragile and for a hard 
man he makes a real meal of his injuries. At times he is embarrassing, one 
minute nearly dead, the next up and at them. I think it was a massive mistake 
to put him on the bench against Derby in the play-offs in preference to Cooper 
and Beradi. Whether it would have changed the result I don't know but Cooper 
and Beradi (and Casilla) were a mess for that match. It's obvious that Pontus 
is his own man and does things that annoys others and you can see Bielsa not 
liking that so it's no surprise that he's been moved on. I think it's a decent 
price because I think Jansson's fitness and injuries will become more of a 
problem. The obvious worry is where is the replacement ? We wait for news of 
transfers in but why do I think they might not be any. Just announcement of 
contract renewals.

 Not that fussed about Jansson leaving. I was never quite taken in by his

they reckon Strujik is ready to step in.

On another note, though, I find it extremely vexing to learn that the top 2 
earners at the club (with whom Phillips quite justifiably wants parity) are 
Casillas and Bamford on 30 k per week. I'd happily see either of them sent out 
the door and have their wages switched to KP.

2019-05-16 Thread Joe Skinner
Yesterday summed that up, after the 1st or 2nd cock up, he was miming to Cooper 
(I think) that he should be watching/looking. 

No mate, he's got his back to you. You came, shout it! Own it. Clear it. 
Whatever. 

Someone really should be agreeing whether they knew for him to do that and what 
they all do when he does. E.g. someone out wide to pass to. 

On a related note, how long until Bielsa speaks English in interviews? They are 
pretty painful!

Poccetino did something similar for a long time (2years plus?) and I appreciate 
not wanting to be misquoted or picked up on your poor translation, parsing etc. 
in another language (mine are non existent) - and the weird Portuguese 
insistence on phrases like 'this moment' instead of 'now' etc.

I think your summation of Jan transfer activity  is just about right Dave.
Of course Casilla could always come good.  Many keepers come through a spell of 
mess-ups.  It could just be that he needs a bit more time to learn the English 
football requirements, and the language possibly.

One think to look out  for is whether the incredible improvement in Cooper, 
Phillips, Klich and Roofe is maintained, or do they revert to their 2017-18 
levels?

I’ve still not written off Douglas completely, so let’s hope he stays fit and 
looks more like the Wolves version, rather than this season’s.

Subject: Re: [LU] Where do we go from here?

Of course with hindsight we messed up the Jan window totally, but at the time I 
think it was something like this BPF - looking dodgy - Blackman gone back 
injured, need new keeper got one Saiz - left - ready made replacement, almost 
back to full fitness - Izzy Brown Baker -left- not really played and when he 
did rubbish - another post injured player available - Tyler Roberts Goal scorer 
- again ready made one already at the club - Bamford (who did very well at 
first don't forget) Another winger needed - Dan James all sorted till Swansea 
chairman or whatever he was turned his phones off

Yes, we can be critical about them leaving James till last minute, and relying 
on 3 players coming back from fairly long injuries - Brown, Roberts, Bamford - 
2 of whom have been out injured again and one just did not fit the bill, and we 
can argue whether Casilla has been an improvement on BPF - I think prior to 
Sheff U red card we did, then after Ipswich and now last night we probably 
think we should have stuck with Bailey or brought in someone different

Looking at that it is clear that injuries have been our undoing - Blackman may 
have been the pick of the bunch, and the other 3 have failed to remain fit 
(Brown missed a few games)

Even last night we were without certain starters - Douglas, Alioski, Roofe, and 
then Roberts and Forshaw either of whom may have started and   Jansson (though 
could have been because injured for away leg and Berardi did well)

Add to that that the reserve left back Leif Davies who played well in his only 
game was out so we had a right winger at left back (even though Dallas had 
pretty much his best game and was a reasonable shout for our MoM)

I do not know how they work it out but we had 67 injuries over the season -an 
incredible amount and despite what the press say it had nothing to do with 
Beilsa and his methods

Of course it is all ifs and buts , but I do genuinely believe having seen bits 
of him since the transfer collapse that James would have made enough difference 
to get us over the line in second place.

Of course like everyone I am very down at the moment but I really and truly 
think that with a little bit of good transfer business the future of the team 
and the club in general (we will have 23,000 season ticket holders so no more 
17,000 crowds in midweek) is looking better than it has for years

We have a great crop of youngsters to go with Clarke and Shack and are probably 
not under pressure to sell any of our first team players,.- just get rid of the 
dead wood that is out on loan (maybe give Wilkes at least a try out, ditto Jay 
Roy Grott- though not sure he would want to come back and quite what standard 
he is doing well in) Also daft as it may seem since we have no chance of 
getting the £6m for him, can Saiz be rehabilitated at Leeds ?

We do need to do much better in the loan market - of our 4 loanees , one was 
injured without playing (Blackman) one rubbish and hardly got a kick (Baker) 
one just did not seem to fit so only played 11 minutes (Brown) and one 
reasonable success without really ever stamping his authority on things in the 
way say Mooey did at Hudds or Tammy Abraham is doing at Villa It does seem to 
be a recurring problem with England internationals Berkley and Townsend b

Re: [LU] Damn

2019-05-16 Thread Joe Skinner

I didn’t mean that card last night specifically, I was referring to the general 
shithousery Bamford seems to enjoy and look for – the face holding that got him 
a retrospective ban. Alioski is even worse. Waving imaginary cards.

I mean in general, I’d rather have a striker who put himself about a bit, i.e. 
Shearer elbowing some argie to get Sol Campbell’s goal in the WC disallowed is 
preferable to rolling about trying to get someone off.

I thought last night’s challenge was fair – not a penalty but definitely not a 
dive or yellow. Keogh’s thigh made contact with Bamford, as his follow through 
motion would also confirm. The game has gone a bit in that respect. Players 
kicking their own heels to make faux contact etc.

That Keogh did something as bad later and didn’t get anything for it is more 
annoying (anticipated a challenge that never really came but won the free kick) 
but because Bamford is a pathetic shithouse (compared to Keogh who is a proper 
shithouse), Bamford lost the ‘challenge’, gave away a FK, disrupted our 
momentum and then also conceded possession, spent 3 mins whinging about it, 
instead of focusing on the real challenge at hand! The ref’s hand was already 
tipped, he gave away a yellow early doors BECAUSE it was Bamford and the ref 
wanted to put a marker down.

Then, obviously, he’s on a yellow and has to play within himself to avoid a 
red. Because he’s a balsa wood mingebag.

Even Pablo was up for it yesterday. Seriously, just get on with it. There was 
minimal accidental contact in his eye/face. You’re 36, not 12.

Dallas did, once he was launched and the other time someone left his studs on 
him semi-deliberately.

Re: [LU] Shite

2019-05-16 Thread Joe Skinner
It’s almost at times like he’s more bothered that he got a foul awarded against 
him, or that he was fouled, more than he missed or didn’t get into position.

Move on, fella! It’s not tiddlywinks.

Either that, or he’s carrying an injury and is worried about being injured.

Just the way he walks about annoys me, languid. There’s no urgency in his work. 
Reminds me of Viduka but at least he knew where the goal was sometimes.

Phillips was the same for me (last season), stroller and pointer. The game 
passed him by but this season, he’s been much better. Apart from last night, 
when Lappard put one of his players on him 1-1 and he panicked a bit.

I like the way this team works off the ball, playing out from defence but you 
wonder what the plan B was. Sky picked up quite early about the change in 
formation but did we do anything differently? Even at half time? Sticking to 
your principles is principled but…?

Maybe we just expect too much.

Difficult to get a good picture of the game on TV and there’s a reason I do 
what I do for a living and don’t work in football, I know fuck all.

Yep - I said this. Neither Roofe or Bamford look comfortable to me as lone 
strikers. I think Bamford needs someone with Roofe's movement to give him a bit 
more space to operate in. Having said that, his confidence looks shot to me and 
i couldn't see him scoring at all last night.

Re: [LU] Shite

2019-05-16 Thread Joe Skinner
If Bielsa stays, then hopefully we can have a better crack at Automatic 
(because our record in knockout/cup football is ludicrously bad except for a 
purple patch 20 years ago)  but promotion is more difficult every year:

Unless teams coming down are basket cases, they are generally better, unless 
they have to offload players (West Brom) – Fulham might struggle.

Cardiff, you’d imagine, would be organised enough and stable to be pushing like 
Sheff Utd. Plus like Billy Sharp, Warnock is one of those people that was a bit 
crap for us but much better elsewhere.

I can’t quite work out if we have any money (for transfers) – the bench was 
piss weak last night.

Can we fend off the inevitable enquiries for the obviously above average 
players we have like Roofe and Phillips?

Harrison will presumably go back to City, so there is a like for like 
replacement required, unless Alioski plays there but then left back is weak 
(problem all season defensively).

Cooper and Pontus whilst obviously trying their best are not quite good enough 
week in week out consistly. They all have a red card or stupid challenge 
waiting in them. The cover is poor or non-existent.

Hernandez is too old to be consistent. His legs have gone. We never replaced 
Saiz and whether we could is immaterial. He was good cover for Pablo and vice 
versa.

Bamford has some really nice touches but always seems to need to take one too 
many. I know we paid decent money for him but he feels like a luxury – maybe he 
needs a strike partner? Roofe seems to play better on his own and doesn’t seem 
to turn to dust when he plays out wide.

The ‘Keeper had an absolute mare yesterday, he was lucky not to concede 2-3 
more. What he thought he was doing is beyond me. Come if you’re coming and 
FUCKING GET RID OF IT. Don’t come and fuck about with it outside the box where 
you can’t use your hands. He was causing total panic.

The thought of this current team (mainly last season’s bang average one) in the 
Premier League is a bit scary.

Be nice if Shackleton and Clarke etc. could develop and play more, as they look 
pretty good to me (in spells)

I hope either FLD get pumped by Villa and we beat them home and away again, on 
the way to automatic promotion, or they go up and get destroyed in the PL and 
Frank gets sacked by Easter.

I know we’re a semi big fish in a small pond but everyone seems to raise their 
game when we play them and take the spite, niggle and extra preparation to the 
next level. Particularly this season. Tinpot players, clubs and managers giving 
it Jonny big bananas.

There were some bizarre ref decisions yesterday but I’ve come to expect that. 
You make your own luck.

Disappointing but not unexpected.

We have another ‘derby’ next season don’t we? Barnsley?

Rich - what was utterly unbelievable was when the Sky commentator said “there’s 
a collectors item - a misplaced pass from Hernandez” At that point it was 
obvious he wasn’t watching the game! I thought he was shite - couldn’t find a 
white shirt to save his life.

I was boring the missus with ‘has Dallas ever had a better game for  Leeds’ 
etc. I doubt it!

I reckon he’s too old for another crack anyway, as is Cooper maybe.

Bamford simply dies not have the required mentality to play for us.

The faltering full back is always good for sport but a bit of a dump 

Always preferred the dairy at the top on Stroud green road 

Can’t make either, I’m west these days

Re: [LU] Play Off Semi

2019-05-09 Thread Joe Skinner
The counter to away goals counting double is that the home team has the 
‘advantage’ of being at home, For longer, I.e. extra time too 

But once you’re in a semi, as the last 2 euro games showed, it’s all relative 
and games can turn in an instant

Re: [LU] Villa game tickets

2019-04-04 Thread Joe Skinner
When I had my ST, no cup games were included anyway, so if I wanted, I could 
have my seat but if I wanted to go with mates, then I'd buy 2-3 or 4 and sit 
somewhere random together but I don't remember having to flex my ST muscles to 
get those 4

Maybe you could get them early as an ST holder and there were no restrictions. 

The Champs League seasons were the same from memory.

There was low takeup from glory hunters anyway, at least until the Depor [and 
Gala] games. 

Lazio was a bit of a dead rubber and empty from memory.

All of which isn't relevant to the current issue for you

I was West Stand paddock. Does anyone else remember the bloke who could come in 
every game, regardless of kick off time, literally as they kicked off, always 
sat down with fish and chips in newspaper! End of the row.

Yes.  Season Ticket holders are, by default gold members.

I remember the same issue when we were in Europe all those years ago.  As a 
West Stand Paddock ST holder, we often got relocated.  We had to buy our 
Champions League ticket, not knowing where we would sit in the ground, so to 
keep sitting next to my mate, we had to link our accounts and but the tickets 
together as one purchase.

Ticket release goes:

ST
SC - Gold
SC - Silver
General release

If you've bought / already got ST seat, and they limit it to one per member, 
you can't get a second, unless you link your account to a SC - Gold member and 
buy a ticket under their entitlement.

Best wishes,

Steve.

I thought Tony Gayle was atrocious at first - he'd clearly never seen Alioski 
at left back before given how often he made comments about Alioski popping up

However, by the end of the game I was warming to his stating of the obvious,

Yeah my Bamford comment was a bit tongue in cheek - like all of them he was 
excellent We were on a sky sports channel not red button (sky arena?) that’s 
why we got replays and different angles etc I think the reason for our 
“fatalism” is our history - lost in the last 9 (?) finals - so often 2nd not

It was still the red button but they seem to have jazzed it up, if Tony Gayle 
stating the bleeding obvious is jazzing it up

How many games have been shown this season, must be the record?

Yeah my Bamford comment was a bit tongue in cheek - like all of them he was 
excellent We were on a sky sports channel not red button (sky arena?) that’s 
why we got replays and different angles etc I think the reason for our 
“fatalism” is our history - lost in the last 9 (?) finals - so often 2nd not 
1st in top division. Our teams over the years should have won much much more

Re: [LU] LU WBA Tonight

2019-03-01 Thread Joe Skinner
It's not all doom and gloom.

Even if we lost tonight and against Brizzle City. 

If Sheff Utd drew their 2 derbies, they'd still only be 2 pts ahead. If they 
won and we won the next game, then beat them at home. We'd be 2nd and have the 
whip hand. 

Just leaving Millwall, Brum etc. to beat. I have us losing a few and have us 
3rd for the last 5-6 games, going 2nd on the last day, winning at already 
relegated Ipswich with Stoke beating Sheff utd in the last minute.

It's the hope that kills you.

I'm assuming Norwich keep winning/their distance. Can't see them on 98 points 
but it might happen.

It’s not doom and gloom to me, it’s reality.

We can still lose and go up. Norwich and Sheff Utd can and will still lose 
games and drop points. Sheff U have a derby and us to play. I don’t care how we 
go up, as long as we go up. I don’t fancy us in the play offs. It might have to 
be next season.  So be it.

You’re either one of those people who has LOVE, LIFE, LIVE cushions and prints 
around the house, or you’re not.

I’m definitely not!

We played well in patches the other day, a match fit Bamford could easily have 
scored one, one of the other pinball moments could have gone in. We could have 
snatched a 2-1 win. We didn’t. We lost to a team who’d previously lost 7 on the 
bounce.

Make of that what you will.

Re: [LU] On the other hand.

2019-02-27 Thread Joe Skinner
If Izzy Brown is the answer, I really don't want to know what the question is!

The dickhead nearly got sent off (twice!) in about 5 mins

The step up between U23's and the first team is leagues apart, no pun intended.

On the plus side, we did give it a go for about 10 mins in the second half, a 
bit of pinball and shit shots from Douglas and Alioski. Could have snatched an 
undeserved draw.

Once Bamford's fully fit, I disagree with myself and agree with Rich earlier on 
in the season, his touch is lovely, nice awareness, skills - he is calm and has 
an eye for goal. Pity he's made out of balsa wood

If there was a bit of decent back up for Hernandez (Saiz) and Bamford/Roofe, 
then you could afford to take one or more of them off when it's not working.

He bought a keeper. I actually rate him. Couldn't stand the young lad, accident 
waiting to happen.

That said, this year with largely the same team is light years ahead. It's got 
me back watching from behind the sofa or my fingers again. It's remarkable he 
can get a collection of shitehawks in the top 3 for most of the season - how 
many of our players would another team want to actually buy? 

Roofe because of the goals?

I still think Phillips is absolutely fucking shite and the midfield an actual 
yawning chasm at times.

It wasn't ONLY a "bummer of a result" Our lack of cutting edge is becoming more 
and more evident. For all our possession, undoubted fitness, and willingness, 
teams know they can let us have the ball for long periods in the safe knowledge 
we're unlikely to find an end result. There was only one well worked move from 
us that nearly ended in a goal. It's becoming mildly embarrassing that our same 
old same old approach isn't yielding many goals.
And then to cap it off, MB always states that with so much possession and 
domination, we didn't take our chances. I thought QPR were worthy of their win 
last night - they had a sparkle from time to time that we didn't. 

 

I think Brown, Roberts and Douglas are all poor, especially Brown - get him 
back to Chelsea and lose the other 2 quickly. How did any of these 3 manage to 
be signed - it's back to Doukara days. 

 

I think we'll do well to take a point from WBA on current form. I still see 
Norwich and Sheff U for auto promotion and a possible place for us in the play 
offs with WBA joining Norwich and Sheff U in promotion.

 

Not all doom and gloom though - it's been an incredible season and the best 
we've seen LU for some time.

 

Dave

 

 

 

 

 

 

A very fair point Sean - MB is unlikely to be here for more than another season 

at most. I hope he has now learnt he has underestimated the resources required 

for this 'project', and will want to give it another go having bought 4 or 5


quality players. It's not all over this season by a long chalk, but last night 

was a bummer of a result.

Re: [LU] Let them take risks AND make mistakes, Beatitudes of Bielsa

My first thought at the weekend when they said someone on the Leeds bench was 
taken ill, was that it would be Leeds for Bielsa to have a pitch side heart

Subject: [LU] Let them take risks AND make mistakes, Beatitudes of Bielsa

under the impression some listers don't already read some of Bielsa's wonderful 
words.

Today I loved:

a) Acknowledging the drop in form but vehement support for a lad who's been a 
stalwart for us:

For me Bill Ayling is a great player. He is a complete player. When I say 
complete I mean that he can manage all aspects of the game.

He can defend as a full-back, as he can defend as a centre-back. He has an 
aerial game that is not very common for players who play as full-backs. And if 
we divide the pitch in three segments, taking into account the right hand side 
of the pitch, he defends well, he is very well in playing out, he takes risks 
when we have to organise and when we have to use the ball and the only thing 
that decreased a little bit is his offensive impact.

...The only thing I can tell about Bill Ayling, that he contribute a little 
less in attack and usually he was getting a grade of more than seven points, 
now it’s more than six points. [*apparently MB &co rate them all out of 10 
after each game]*

 But for me he’s a very important player for the team. He is a player that is 
an example for his team-mates, for the public, for the fans and in football you 
have very few players that don’t have ups and downs...

Maybe I’m not objective. Because I have a very special respect for him, for 
what he gives to the team. Because he always assumes and takes risks. And 
because he’s influenced for this feature that I admire a lot him. Obviously for 
me he’s better than what you think.


And then b) a beautiful football (and life) philosophy:


Nobody wants to concede the first goal.

If we only focused on the fact to prevent the opponent from scoring a goal, we 
would be doing something in the way you *[the interviewers]* are proposing.

If we share the energy between creating and defending the possibility for the 
opponent to score a goal is higher. This is a scientific analysis, a 
mathematical analysis. But from a football point of view if you dominate the 
game you have more chances to score goals and more chances not to concede goals.

…..

But you have actions of danger or situations that depend exclusively on the 
team who is attacking and you have other actions that are made easier by the 
team that is defending.

When you make it easier for the opponent to attack it’s when you make a 
mistake. But the mistake is part of football. If there’s something that you 
can’t ask to a football player, you can’t tell them ‘take risks but you are not 
allowed to make a mistake.’ Because it's just nonsense.

The best ones take risks and don’t make mistakes. Those are very few. If you 
tell a player takes risks but you're not allowed to make a mistake, the player 
has only one solution - he wouldn't take a risk.

And if you don’t take risks in football games, the game becomes less attractive.

And then the capacity of winning decreases. When you play your way you always 
compare yourself to the opponent.

If the only comparison we make is which team is not making mistakes, when two 
teams play with the goal of not making a mistake, the game is not attractive.


Cheers

Re: [LU] Rothrum

2019-01-24 Thread Joe Skinner
You'd think that for someone who does his research (and some) that he never 
picked up on what the Stoke manager said, as to why we struggled (bizarre ref 
decisions apart)

"It’s been well publicised Marcelo watched 26 Luton games and two Stoke games, 
so he’s well drilled on what our usual formation is, so we thought we may have 
to give him a surprise because, if he’s that well drilled on us, they’ve had 
plenty of time to work on it, so it’d be a difficult afternoon.

“We felt with the threats they’ve got and to give us the best chance to win the 
match we needed to be tactically right at it and I thought we were.”


Must admit, I don't get the Luton reference. Was Jones the Luton manager 
previously?

So as expected Casilla is going to start - just hope he is ready for a bit of 
an aerial bombardment especially from set pieces and long throws. With Phillips 
replacing the (wrongly) suspended Pontus we will need the keeper to be dominant 
in the air.
We really need to get the 3 points tomorrow and get back to winning ways - as 
Bielsa says it is odd that Stoke, as he says our worse performance came on the 
back of our best one.
Get the win tomorrow and it will set us up nicely for the Norwich game - one of 
3 massive 6pointer home games between now and the end - Norwich, West Brom and 
Sheff U all have to visit us - 9 points from those 3 games and things will be 
looking good, 0 points on the other hand just does not bear thinking about.
One big worry is that apart from Derby (our only double so far) all the 'return 
games' have had the opposite result - Blackburn lost then won, Forest & Stoke 
won at home but then lost away - Hull won away then lost at home. IF repeated 
with the top 3 - we would beat WBA but lose the other two!

Casilla should be a good addition, and if we can get James sorted and Bamford 
fit (started full training again today) then we have got a decent chance of 
promotion  especially if the second half of the season is kinder than the first 
in terms of injuries - as Phil Hay pointed out we have had 13 different back 
four combinations this season !

Re: [LU] More bile...

2019-01-18 Thread Joe Skinner
Derby Police confirmed that (there's a series of tweets between them and a 
leeds fan) - I hate twitter - anyway, they confirmed that the club member 
didn't have any pliers/bolt cutters etc. 

He's definitely on the spectrum - everyone is, that's why it's a spectrum but 
agree - in my limited knowledge of it (few family members are 
autistic/aspergers) he is definitely that way. 

Other reports say he was wearing club branded gear and in a club branded car!

Subject: Re: [LU] More bile...

 A couple of thoughts / comments about 'spying' First - I was out last night 
with some mates - 2 are Man City ST holders, 1 is scum and one Everton - All 
four agreed that 'everyone does it' 'nothing wrong with it' and ' media and 
other reaction well over the top' - no idea if these 4 are representative of 
fans in general but not one felt what we had done was wrong or deserved 
punishmentSecond - when the EFL /FA consider it all I hope they look at the 
stuff Lampard has said which contradicts tweets from the Derbyshire police who 
have catagorically denied that the person was on private land, that they 
themselves went onto the training ground (so no disruption of training - even 
Scott Carson said it delayed them for 5 minutes maximum) and that the bloke had 
pliers or other similar tools and so they released him without charge etc since 
no laws were brokenThird - I cannot believe (well I can, but it is strange) how 
none of the media seem to understand what Beilsa was saying - some have gone on 
about how meticulous his preparation is , others saying it is common-place, 
Phil Hay has had to correct Henry Winter and explain that the point of the 
presentation was - as Phil puts it "only point I'd make Henry is that Bielsa 
wasn't trying to suggest that his analysis was exceptional or unique. He was 
asking the question of whether one scouting trip could make a material 
difference to a result when the opposition had been so heavily researched 
already" 

Finally no-one has mentioned the fact, as pointed out by my wife the first time 
she watched Bielsa (and she is very knowledgeble in this area (it is her job) 
Bielsa clearly has at the very least Aspergers if not actual autism or to quote 
her "wow he is on the spectrum" - this explains his refusal for one on one 
interviews and his total lack of eye contact when speaking as well as his 
'obsessional nature and OCD' which he himself referred to - he did not spy to 
get an advantage as such, he did it because he could not sleep at night if he 
did not do everything possible - his own quote at the end shows his 
insecurities "I do it because I am stupid" - so in this era when football is 
all about 'mental health' even to the squiggle on players shirts surely 
Beilsa's mental state should be taken into account No doubt if we have a bad 
result tomorrow the press will blame it on the fact that we did not 'spy' on 
Stoke rather than individual or team performance Whatever F them all - we are 
Leeds and Bielsa is a brilliant manager for us I see our paranoia is being fed 
again this week with Troy Deeney getting a fine (Charlie Austin nothing) 
compared to Pontus's one match ban for slagging the ref - Dave

Re: [LU] Izzy Brown

Worth mentioning the 20-25 passes or so before it though! 

The finish wasn’t just a tap in either, a half volley from about 2 feet out.  
Or equally it could’ve come off his knee!

Unless I’m watching a different u23 Crewe goal video

Re: [LU] Preston

2018-09-19 Thread Joe Skinner
Subs - not on long.


This is something that really winds me up. 

Long term plan/style of play is very intensive, the squad isn't rotated much 
beyond cup games, so why don't some players (Bamford was waiting in the wings, 
Hernandez is old) get subbed for meaningful game time?

Now some of them are injured...? 

It's hard getting into the gist of a game, mentally, physically etc. so late in 
the game and the exercise benefit is negligible [of being subbed on so late] - 
worse so if they don't warm up (I never seem to see subs warming up under him - 
maybe I'm not noticing it)

Re: [LU] Swansea from the armchair

2018-08-23 Thread Joe Skinner
You'd think that with Saiz presumably being man marked every game from here on 
in, a few things need to happen.

1.  Someone (Alioski for example) needs to take some responsibility and step 
up. 

2. Both of them need to cut out the crap, the diving, whinging, petulance, easy 
bookings, niggly stuff, constantly moaning - for one thing it shows even your 
basic footballer that he's lost it already and is off his game.

3. The rest of the 9 not being marked should be finding their own space and 
take more responsibility. Roofe for one has been doing this (from what little 
I've seen)

Even if it all goes tits up, even these 4-5 games have been better than 
virtually all of last season. So it's not just the players or manager, it's the 
whole thing. Even looking like you’re trying goes a long way.


. More problematic is the Saiz been man-marked and getting wound up scenario - 
we need more another creative option imho, especially as he’ll inevitably be 
banned at times.

Re: [LU] Swansea from the armchair

2018-08-22 Thread Joe Skinner
How much of us being poor last night (absolutely abysmal at times - as bad as 
the worst last season) is down to the opposition, though? On the flip side, 
when we do well, how much is the other team playing poorly or not being able to 
keep up with (for us) a relatively high tempo?

Losing a centre half and height (and not having the guy a lot of people thing 
should be ahead of him, available) is a blow that late before kick-off.  

I've never really liked Phillips. He's an ambler and a pointer.

I thought we were a bit crap in patches against Derby but they sat off a bit 
and we pulled 2 back. What do I know? 

We seemed a bit slow last night and even when we were playing well, a lot of 
aimless balls forward (which is par for the course) - but are these balls under 
Bielsa a bit different? 

Difficult to tell. 

Bamford looks well off the pace, which could be a fitness thing but even so... 
£7m?

Subject: Re: [LU] Swansea from the armchair

I agree with most of what RW has said - I think that Douglas was very poor, 
Harrison was lacking and Ayling is not a centre back - twice he got us into 
trouble when he went rampaging forward and left us (even) more lightweight at 
the back Comparisons with last season are inevitable and at times we did look 
like the team that fell away and failed so badly then BUT with one massive 
difference - this time we came from behind not once but twice, and got a point 
in a game during which for the most part we were second best.
We did show some glimpses and flashes of the way we have been playing but last 
night was a long way from the style and pizzazz of the other games Full marks 
to MB for his substitutions - when he brought Phillips off I argued with my lad 
who said it was stupid to make a sub so early if he wasn't injured, I said I 
hoped it was indeed tactical and if it was it showed both an understanding of 
the game and a desire to do something about it. Phillips was having a shocker 
and he had already been booked so was on a knife edge. I can recall DoL sitting 
on his hands when we lost 2 0 at Sunderland - he had £30m of talent on the 
bench but sat like a rabbit in headlights and did nothing even though we all 
knew we were going to lose if he did not change things. Also I recall George 
Graham saying that managers often knew after a few minutes that they had things 
wrong but did not want to personnel until at least half time (preferrably not 
till 60mins) because to do so early was an admission that they had picked the 
wrong team So full marks to MB to having the nous and ability to know we needed 
to change and the bottle  /lack of fear to do so. To then make two more changes 
to try and win the game is also to be applauded One last point on the game - if 
Saiz (back to his moaning worse) was booked for dissent how come McBurnie who 
argued over every decision and got right in the lino and ref's faces on two 
occasions did not get sent off ? ALthough to be fair he was MOM and a real 
handful Anyway top of the league despite having what was reported in the press 
on fixture day as the 'hardest start' of anyone in the Division ? I would have 
been happy with 4 pts at this stage (draw and win v Stoke and Rotherham and two 
defeats) Norwich now takes on an extra importance - was yesterday a reverting 
to type for certain players and the team as a whole or is it just one (of many) 
to be expected blips in a long hard season. We need Cooper and /or Janson to be 
fit sooner rather than later Dave

He looks a quality signing, we’ll pleased if we can pull t off.
Bielsa has played de Bock as left centre back in the pre season games so maybe 
he sees him there, rather than left wing back.
Pearce maybe as back up - probably unrealistic to expect him to play full 
season.

Re: [LU] Any links?

2018-04-03 Thread Joe Skinner
Second half was much better but it’s a bit like comparing 2 dog shits you stood 
in.

Was it on tv? Christ I’d have turned it off. Pretty poor live although I hate 
watching games from the end, you don’t get a sense of the game.

Fulham are bang average, don’t get why they’re top 3, little bit of pace and 
decent defence.

We were pretty poor first half. Looked like we’d set up to keep it tight but 
we’re just sat back and went deeper and deeper. They scored an inevitable goal 
with an easy header which was a shame as whatever game plan they had was 
fizzling out. Ours seemed to be give Fulham the ball and they weren’t doing 
that much but they were piling the pressure on.

No sense of urgency once they scored though and Fulham just sat back passing 
the ball about

My issues with the team are that the 3 forward flair players are all flicks and 
heels but can’t keep the ball, get muscled off it and put in crosses to non 
existent players. I mean what is the fucking point?

Alioski and saiz are 2 halves of the same coin. Very little end product and 
shit house players, they’d rather piss and moan or go to ground than actually 
take a player on.

Hernandez is done. What quality he does have is impossible to consistently 
deliver something in this team or league. I bet all 3 would look much better in 
another team.

Oddly, conceding 2 and nearly conceding a couple more, I thought the defence 
did ‘ok’ but fuck me they’re a bugger’s muddle at times. Not sure Dallas is 
ever the answer at right back and beradi not much better at left.

Phillips I think is shite. Ekuban, how can he be offside so often? How does he 
get a game? He’s the tallest forward player yet I don’t think he won anything 
in the first 55 mins 

Viera was probably the best of a bad bunch. At least he’s tidy.

End of the game, foul throws. You know you have no chance to snatch anything. 
They’d given up about 80 mins in

Lassoga is a very poor man’s viduka. Another big guy who can’t use his physical 
attributes 

Keeper looked ok but a bit shell shocked s can be half. I did notice that 
pretty much every time he went to kick or throw it, no one was showing for him 
so he ends up booting it out and it comes back straight away because the team 
is too short and can’t keep it if they ever get it. It just invites pressure

Their second came, ironically, from a counter to our best chance when it looked 
like we might get something. Their crowd were starting to moan a bit and it 
looked like Fulham pissing about was going to back fire

Not particularly enthused about this team or teamwork or the game plan or even 
the formation. Feels like we’re going backwards
