Bar Kock (who looks very poor) he meant that Llorente, Rodrigo, Raphinha etc were all missing.

And Kalvin Philips .....4 international payers taken out of what is a relatively small squad anyway

Koch has been excellent for the most part but badly at fault for a couple last night........erros compounded by Bamford at the other end missing 2 gilt edged chances

Koch was at fault for 2 goals on his debut against Liverpool also, if memory serves me right?

From what I've seen of Leeds, they're decent and will comfortably stay up but they have nowhere near a good enough squad to get anywhere near the top 6.

Meslier offers zero physical presence in goals also, I suspect teams will target him more and more as the season progresses.

Was thinking that too
 
Leeds will be grand though, probably finish around 10th

Agree fully re Leeds.

They're probably a bit unfortunate being in the PL this season as opposed to last season, given how poor the quality was last season and turmoil surrounding so many clubs! Leeds would of benefitted massively and could of pushed for Europe imo.

This year, they've no chance as most of the top 6 sides aswell as Wolves and Everton have invested heavily and look even stronger.

I'd be surprised if West Brom and Fulham are anywhere close to staying up. Leeds should be fine

Leicester were missing several internationals too, including Castagne, Evans and Pereira (and one or two others?)

There’s potential for another Leicester season on the cards, obviously not a 5000/1 shot winning the league but I wouldn’t be surprised if a small club like Spurs ended up winning it! There is no stand out team this season.

When OTB interviewed Jimmy Dunne he was saying that when he played against Leicester they looked at the goals they conceded and couldn't see how they could have prevented them. No obvious errors, positioning reasonably good etc. The movement and passing was so quick. Think they scored 5 that day.  
4-2 RL , i did think they looked good on the day , but the Clarets had chances also .

I'm a big fan of Bielsa, he's a very good manager "but" I'm actually glad the media wankfest over Leeds is starting to quieten down a lot over the last few weeks.

bizzare one. Looks like the only bit of him offside was the bit of him pointing to where he wants the ball to be going

going to be quite the turnaround to keep Sheffield United from going down too. Similar squad (added Brewster, lost Henderson) and tactics as last year, but far less goals. Seems others have figured out their famous “overlapping centre backs”, not sure where they’re going to get goals from.

Took a comment from one of the British tabloid websites. The comment is spot on. 


Offside has to go back to the position of the player's feet; this nonsense about the body (even the armpit) leaning into an offside position is utter nonsense; are they trying to cancel out all of the forward's guile? People pay to see goals. A forward will be naturally leaning towards goal, while the defender will naturally be moving away to play the offside trap, so this robs the forward when he makes a perfectly timed run. It's so much nonsense, and has made determining an offside decision almost impossible. The authorities have muddied the rule and made a simple game more complicated and harder to control.
Wings? They're only the band The Beatles could have been.

That's exactly what it was, the rest of his body was not just in line but a few inches onside
