So we won handsomely, to go 11 points clear of 3rd, and Forest conceded in injury time to draw (and complete my accumulator :scarf:).

 

Me likey.

 

 

Forest also had a 95th minute winner chalked off for offside...

 

Late, late action in my accumulator today also (Leeds, Middlesbrough, Portsmouth)

I understand what xG does and doesn't illustrate.

 

I think your expectations are too high and sometimes your posts are written with hyperbolic language which doesn't always help your point.

 

We've had the best start to the second tier in 131 years.

IMO my expectations are not "too high" I've simply said we waste a lot of chances relative to our quality, I don't really think there are many on here who would disagree with that. 
I'm more than happy with the results. I just tend to focus on what needs to be improved rather than getting carried away with HMS piss the league. 
I'm so excited by where we are right now and how much of an amazing job Enzo is doing, but I often like to look at what needs to improve rather than week in week out stating the obvious that we dominated and won.

Let it be Leeds... some statement

You never know go 2-0 up after 15 mins then they have 7 strikers on the pitch then picked them off easy 😂

Not seen or heard much of it but get in!

 

What I have heard sounds decent and convincing, although there were a few nervy moments!

 

Onto the next one, keep chasing and breaking those records!

Most goals scored

Least goals conceded

11 wins from 12 - best start in the 2nd tier ever

6 from 6 away from home

 

And you still looks at what needs to be improved? I prey you never make it to management in your line of work, your work force would be massively deflated😂

 

This isn't the old save and reset on football manager when a game doesn't go the way you want it to.

 

We dominated a side, away from home, who were unbeaten in 5 games. Not every single chance is going to find the back of the net, believe it or not it's the oppositions job to stop that happening. I'm not sure what you can improve on from today's performance

Comfortable in the end. More Goals, Points, and a bigger gap between us and the rest. Lots to be positive about.

 

I think after Sunderland on Tuesday that's all the top half teams played, So in theory, it should get easier from here.

 

Of course this is Football so it won't , So who is going to trip us up next. ?

 

Really enojoying this season over last.

Sloppy at times and poor decision making in the final third but still scored 3 and once went 2-1 were fairly in control. Good to see us score quickly after going 1-0 down. I still feel we are yet to see it all come together for a 90 mins, when it does It will be a 5/6-0 win and we be saying it could of been 10/12.

Its finally good to watch a team that has banished all Rodgersisms. Before the first international break it was still there under the surface but since then we’ve not looked back.

Its not complicated... some honking away kits over the last couple of years (that grey and pink one???) and we put in some miserable performances and end up relegated. 

 

And finally a classic sash kit and we get 6 away wins in a row for the first time ever!! 

This is an all-time classic. 

White away, yellow 3rd and I'll fight anyone who says different.

 

This stunning example is only $150 and apparently made by Reebox Leisure...

...as he said, there are always areas that could be improved on, I am sure the same thing would have been said had we drawn or lost the game!!!

Vestergaard's reaction to his goal was to get the ball and go again, with much the same attitude, happy to score, but more to do.

It's boring being this good.

 

We should put Ward back in goal just to give the opposition a fighting chance & glimmer of hope.

:dunno:

Behave that could take us from the best team this leagues ever seen to one lucky to only be going to league 1

Lots of talk on the Swansea board that they should have had a pen, and us a red card. What did I miss, I watched the whole game???

i think they are on about the handball on faes. couldnt tell on the replay if it was or not as the ball was coming at him so fast

They’re not shit either; handy players and a capable manager. Always admired their succession planning for people being poached (bar when they had that weird Italian for a bit) and they’ll be knocking on the door of the play-offs I’d imagine.

 

But we’ve gone there, let them score first for some entertainment , then played with our dicks out and scored 3. Said before the game but our bench is hilarious and will continue to kill sides at this level.

I caught a glimpse of what looked like should have a penalty for a foul on Vardy, no mention of that on there I suppose?

Yeah, it was a clear penalty on Vardy I thought.
