Fear Of The Fox

There's a huge mismatch and gap on the right side of Leeds defense and an extra Southampton player running through the midfield without any Leeds player tracking him down. If Farke doesn't spot this it's game over for his team.

Oh, I didn't know it was finalised. Absolutely shocking move from Bayern. They're trying their best to leave Kane without a trophy until he retires. Good job.

De Zerbi isn't an idiot. He'll take into consideration what Poch said about Chelsea's ownership and management. I think De Zerbi will be the next Bayern manager.

Their only impactful signing was Kante. Fofana is a moving hospital department, Chilwell will never progress/improve as a player, Drinkwater oh well I don't even need to comment on this one. Chelsea's current ownership don't have a clue about football. Abramovich despite all his flaws and character had a very decent knowledge of the sport. I don't think Chelsea will appoint Enzo but I don't want him here. If Enzo is considering other options he needs to speak out, timescales are limited because of Euro 2024. Transfers will be also limited until July, Top needs to step up and tell us what's the plan. There's no time waiting for any Enzo to decide, we simply don't have time.

Nope. He's just rubbish. I don't even know why this isn't an OG.

That's it, I'm convinced. If Enzo goes I want Rooney on a fixed 4 year contract. Some trips to League Two places will be awesome.

Rooney talking about football tactics! Next it's me talking about rocket science.

I will never understand why a manager would choose to play with such a high defensive line. It doesn't make any sense to me unless you're playing against a League One or Two team. Still Man Utd will find a way to bottle it, probably intentionally. These Man Utd players are proper rats, they'll through ETH under the bus in the 2nd half.

I know it sounds unprofessional but I still believe players like Vardy and Albrighton should have spoken out and at least raise their concerns about BR last season. Both know this team better than any Rodgers, I'm sure they can feel the fans frustration. Rodgers nearly bottled the FA Cup final with his defensive subs late in the game inviting pressure and messing with the defense structure. He's one of a lot modern managers right now who doesn't have a clue how to change things tactically on the fly. You just pray his initial plan will work, if not it's game over.

I'm relieved he didn't mention my name regarding relegation.

We need to utilise in certain club positions some players of the PL title team. That team had strong personalities and players with vision. Fuchs, Vardy, Albrighton, Big Wes, Kasper can offer more to the club.

Thought about it a lot of times but I always come to a conclusion that there are more obstacles mostly related to the city. My impression is that we wouldn't be able to attract big names even if we had back to back Champions League appearances.

Atalanta deserve a trophy for all their efforts and progress the last 5 years. They have played some beautiful football all these years.

Chelsea won't be able to achieve with Enzo a higher postion than the 6th they surprisingly got this season. If Enzo has an offer from them he'll go because he'll probably think Chelsea will give him the treatment Arteta got from Arsenal. Expect more bs like "project", "trust the process", "style of play" etc. Chelsea finished 6th because the quality from 4th place downwards was abysmal. They've even managed to finish just 5pts below Villa. Needless to say this season's dreadful PL was reflected in all European competitions where Italian and German teams dominated. Even 2 Greek teams managed to reach the QF and one of them is a finalist now. PL is killing its product because it's run from top to bottom by technocrats who don't have a clue about the sport. The FFP charges have severely damaged the integrity of the league. They're delaying Man City's punishment because they know the impact will be huge.

It used to be like this several decades ago. Now it's called: The Klopp Effect.

If you're a positive thinker the guy might be around 7 months ahead.

Sly posted above he was saved by the ropes. Idk what this means. Are there WWE rules now in boxing?

This is why I asked about the state of the rules nowadays as I don't follow the sport anymore. Surely if the ref's obviously protecting the athlete from a severe KO it should be an automatic TKO?

I'm struggling to understand how is this a split decision and a close call. For 15-20secs on the 9th the ref was trying to prevent a huge KO and, as Finnegan correctly explained above to me, a possible health damage to Fury.

I should watch modern boxing more regularly. This was comedy gold in the end. Ref saved him from a 100% KO on the 9th and that guy believes he won! He also thinks it's 1st January 2024!

Didn't know there were so many Southampton fans over there. Proper pitch invasion.

Why's the ref stepping in so early and preventing potential KOs? I reckon some rules changed since the 80s and 90s? It looks very strange and awkward. Sorry if this question sounds silly, haven't followed modern boxing for a while.

Norwich's season board expectations was promotion to the PL and if I'm not mistaken West Brom was the same via playoffs. Idk why people are surprised their managers are getting sacked. You don't meet the target you're getting sacked, especially when the team which was just promoted from League One achieved right away the automatic promotion. Same will happen to Farke if Leeds lose at Wembley.

Man Utd are a historically big club. I'd love to see them in League Two. With Forest preferably.

Why would someone prefer Leeds over Southampton in the PL? Leeds have a lot of media behind them and it's very likely they'll also get in favour some dodgy ref calls at home next season because of this kind of "pressure".
