This is exactly right. Our front 3 have gone from 90 plus goals the first year, to 68, and last year it was 57. Now, we've evolved as a team and had been more solid but we did win 14 games last year by 1 goal and that's another 1. 

We have to be more lethal up top and stop giving teams belief and take the workload off our mindset, let alone defence. 

I agree generally, but it was 3-2 after thirty three minutes. Everybody looks to make an opening day statement, and so did Leeds. Normally those goals of ours would be unanswered I think.

 

Going into this game, we have been complacent - its easy to get into the hype of invincibility. I thought against Arsenal, who are much improved of late, we were good. The difference in the end was hitting the crossbar. Think we missed a few more chances, from memory.

 

we’ll sharpen up at the back, with that wake up call tonight. We’d better, anyway. Kloppy will be onto it.

Nothing I saw tonight suggests to me the team needs freshening up. I hope there's not a touch of Billy Bigbollocks creeping in with some of the players.

Dockers W Henry in the house.

[MOGLET]

Bit up and down at the back.

leeds, newly promoted were bound to go all out.

first game is usually not the best we play.

Keita is still not good enough.

We won, 3 points, on to the next.

Felt like a pre-season game. Lots of players who just need some minutes in their legs and match sharpness.

 

Bobby needs shooting practice though. Can't keep looking to square it when he sees the keeper's eyes.

I think we might have to start thinking about him not playing up front and changing the tactics from time to time. It's painful watching him in front of goal right now. 

[clockspeed]

Bobby in poor form is superfluous to our attack time to replace with Brewster. Mane and Salah will do just fine without his non contribution and at least Brewster can put his foot through the ball.

Reminded me of Norwich last season. Only difference is they got the rub of the green with their first goal, and a blue moon VVD error for the second. Their 3rd was only made possible because they were chasing an equaliser.

 

Had we won 6-1 or 5-2 or 4-0, which is a much better indication of how the game panned out, fuck all would have been made of it.

 

3 points and we're off an running.

A bit of an exaggeration to the positive mate. 

[YorkshireRed]

We need to be better than that, however we did win. I’m in the Pub and you’d have thought Leeds won 0-18.

They had three shots on target. I’m glad the team don’t piss their pants as easily as some on here.

No.....you wouldn’t 

[TheHowieLama]

Good run out for Jones.

 

I am one of Go Jomez' biggest supporter/fanboys but he has really not been up to it for about 6 months.

And Firmino, pull yer finger out man. Shoot the fuckin puck.

[Mathewbet1]

We need another CB and Striker imo.

[Section_31]

Good game that, nice to piss all those 'neutrals' off too who were getting ready to celebrate. 

[Tony Moanero]

I forgot Liverpool were playing today. Are we back to being pretty shit again?

Yes, and a midfielder to replace Keita who is utter fucking turd

[Stickman]

Wasn’t great and I think out of any team with the way we play we miss the crowd more than most Oh and despite the slant Tyler, Carragher and Sky try to put on it we totally deserved to win and should have won comfortably

Whats Portuguese for ' Put your foot through it for fucks sake '

From my limited knowledge of Spanish I reckon  that's a bit milder than mine.

Which, considering they also lost to us on that first day, was a miraculous statement.

 

Haha, yeah, I fucked that up. I got things mixed up a little. Blame the post match bevvies. Just checked, which I should've done before I posted, and it wasn't even the 2nd game, but the 5th.

[The Guest]

Funny how quickly people want players fucked off out of the team that have just won our first league title in 30 years.  First game of the season after a complete worldwide shitfest that’s fucked up everything with still no fans in the stadium and basically no pre season.

 

This season should be a free hit after the last 2 years.  Yet everyone is losing their shit at the players.  It’s only a forum obviously but it’s a good view of the wider opinion of the fans generally.  It creates a bad atmosphere and puts unnecessary pressure on the team.

Predictive text changed it to that!

But, I get your point.

Here's an early call....

Leeds will twat the fuck out of the shite but won't have as many insta followers as jimmy
