It does sound like a name that would be in a film or book. IMO.

It will be in years to come. A Richard Curtis version of Moneyball

Hopefully not 'Bean'.

Has he actually joined? If the club have issued something, then I have missed it.

He's also been in a few of the videos and pictures that they've posted in the last week.

I can't see how we wouldn't have loads of people who have to isolate if he is.

Can only hope he kissed goodbye to Martinez and Buendia at the airport.

He's been working on the long throws so only Matty Cash.

Our set pieces have improved and especially our corners look excellent with Doug and Bailey for a bit whipping them in. Mings unlucky not to score and then we have the OG from Digne. Defensively we will continue to improve also in defending them, but early days some very encouraging signs.

The freekick that was was sent backwards, to swiftly end up in their box and nearly a wonder goal was a good sign of things to come.

Indeed. Our throw ins, corners and free kicks have been embarrassingly bad for years, and now they show definite signs of being quite good. Up your bollocks, Danny Murphy.

The third goal started from a throw in, this is wizardry in itself.

It was interesting watching a Leeds game and seeing how much movement there was for the throw-in taker. Always found it frustrating when players have just stood still and not giving the taker any options.

Even through the 'good' years, lack of movement off the ball has been something we've struggled with for decades, I reckon. It's like a congenital disorder that has survived managers and squads.

I still remember when Robbie Keane came on loan and laid into players over their lack of movement.

I remember being hugely underwhelmed at bringing in an ancient Robbie Keane, only for him to clearly be the best player at the club by miles.
