I actually thought Kavanagh was very good on Sunday. Generally kept his cards in his pocket. His only big error was missing the foul by Caicedo that put Gravenberch out of the game. That was a definite yellow. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thought was more "Nkunku actually has the ability to win things in the next 5 years, knows he's fucked it signing for us, and wants as little of our stain on him as possible before leaving in the summer". I'd be really surprised if he sticks around, I doubt the plan at the time he signed his contract was "sell anyone who has ever achieved anything of note and adopt Leonardo Di Caprio's dating age requirements". I'd be fuming in his place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be fuming in his place. I suppose it helps massively to be a bit part player wheeled on out of position whenever Pochettino has finished nausing up the defence.

I would imagine he knows a shit show when he sees one and having been in France when Pochettino mucked up the PSG gig probably thought - Non !

blueboy1905 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Who would think that buying another player with an iffy injury record would create problems for us further down the line ? Our medical department must be similar to the man with a bucket and sponge at a Sunday league game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite some of the drivel served up by the coach and the team this season, the support has been reasonable. Sunday was ok from where I was located. Home at times has been flat.

Max Fowler Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 This is a truly awful fixture for us now. Doesn't get much worse. Great historic rival in red hot form at the Bridge. And they are still Championship opposition. I think we're about to get beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble is, the both play in positions where we are short, because of injuries. Maybe Trev could play and Colwill at full back. Petrovic, Gusto, Disasi, Chalobah, Colwill, Caicedo, Enzo, Palmer, Mudryk. Madueke, Jackson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The late Alan Ball once said "In my day, the crowd used to make the plyers perform. Now, it's the other way round". The atmosphere at the Bridge has been a problem for a long time, even Mourinho sounded off about it once or twice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueandproud Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 I, for one think we'll win this. Do Leeds really want a long cup run, it might affect their promotion push, they might just rest a few. The trouble is, wjat sort of team will Poch put out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
