Different game once Leeds tired after chasing around like lunatics. I love to see teams working hard but their approach is totally erratic and second season syndrome looms large at Elland Road.
Yeah it was always going to be difficult to sustain.. it looks great at times but its flawed long term imo.
Seems Conti told Spurs to try to conserve their energy first half (felt wouldn't be fit enough to match Leeds), second half they outran Leeds by 3km.
Nuno proved you can win games running far less than the opposition. Yesterday Leeds had individuals chasing Spurs players down but there was no coordination, it was simple for Spurs to move the ball and Leeds looked spent inside an hour. Liverpool press better than anyone and that’s because they do it as a team. Now teams have got used to the Bielsa way they are increasingly finding ways to nullify it.
Injuries certainly playing a part. Could be close as even Norwich are picking up points. If Newcastle get to January in touch they could well climb clear and Watford are doing better than many expected.
Bloody hell, that would be a culture shock to their style......not saying Nuno couldn't adapt but it would need a big change in his or the fans approach
Can I refer the honourable DW to #409 of this very thread? Way ahead of you there mateExcuse me, but if I can handpick ex-Man Utd players who are dire managers, I'm having Paul Ince.
Steve Bruce has, as much as I hate to say it, at some point demonstrated some level of competence. He somehow finished above us last season, admittedly aided by us giving up around February some time.
Ince would be the greatest value ever, plus the world would realise what a cunt he is.
yep !
Bean would not like a return...
