  1. They could try it I guess, but it’d mean playing a system they’re not as familiar with, and put even less pressure on our tactic of playing out from the back.
  2. Their midfield tends to leave too much space, which is likely to give us the lion’s share of possession and limit Leeds’ chances by itself, their high press isn’t good enough to stop us playing out through it, which leaves them vulnerable when they try it, and if they push defenders forward to try and help deal with our stronger midfield, they’re not quick enough to deal with balls in behind.
  3. I see Leeds as having an absolutely terrible match up tactically against us. As long as we don’t go missing for the final and we don’t have terrible luck, Leeds won’t be able to do an awful lot about it.
  4. Incredible performance by Atalanta to end Bayer Leverkusen's unbeaten run, the best result in their history. Leverkusen have already created history of course, but must be gutting to get so close to the invincible treble and miss out. Doubt any team will get that close again in my lifetime.
  5. Not sure about the lowest required, but Forest’s 32 this season is the lowest total to stay up. https://www.premierleague.com/news/3932287 Also Man Utd finishing on negative goal difference…
  6. Bayer Leverkusen complete the first ever invincible season in the Bundesliga. If only we’d freed Tella to go to Burnley, I’m sure he’d have had a far better time…
  7. Near perfect performance, almost complete control of the game!
  8. That’s shameful by the ref.
  9. What a finish!!!!!!
  10. Been a while since we had this much riding on a game!
  11. Epicaricacy is one that should really be used more, especially in football.
  12. Bayer Leverkusen now three games away from the invincible treble. Unreal.
  13. I’ll take that. Gives us a very decent chance of finishing it off at home.
  14. That’s an unbelievable save off the deflection.
  15. Looks like West Brom might already be starting to suffer for that mad start. We might be able to properly punish them in the first leg here.
  16. Also visible in Southampton. Long exposure photos show more than was visible with the naked eye, but it was still incredible to see them here.
  17. Bayer Leverkusen’s run goes on thanks to another 97th minute goal with the last kick of the game. 4 games away from an invincible treble season. Not completed yet obviously, but goes down as a more extraordinary football achievement for me than Leicester winning the league if they manage to finish it off.
  18. Seems a little shortsighted in a year where there were only effectively two playoff places for a team of Hull’s strength to realistically aim for, and they’ve ended up just missing out by three points and goal difference.
  19. Seems a little harsh to say the least. He was nominated for manager of the season!
  20. Man Utd have never really even got close to replacing Fergie.
  21. They might be ok if they hire Poch
