Leeds United vs Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

If (and these are massive ifs) we can stay injury free, sign a goalscoring CF in January who hits the ground running / Watkins rediscovers his form.  Then maybe we can have a really good go.  Arsenal look pretty nailed on at the moment though it has to be said.

We will know where Arsenal are this time 2 weeks. Their next 2 games are at Chelsea and us. So basically 2 form teams and potential (although v loosely in our sense) challengers.

Also the marble keeps rolling around my head on how the absolute f*** did we contrive to lose to the Liverpool?

We played really poorly for an hour and gifted them the lead.

Premier League rules state that the grass length must not exceed 30mm and must be uniform across the entire pitch, with officials checking this before each game. While the maximum is 30mm, most groundskeepers maintain a height between 20 and 22mm for a faster game.

In the olden days (early 1990s) John Beck at Cambridge had the grass in the wide attacking areas kept long to make use of his long ball press. They'd hoof it into the corner and chase after it.

Emery is a footballing genius, we are not playing particulary well and yet we are so well organised we are still getting results. I hope we have the financials to strengthen in January.

It looked long, and very very wet (like they'd watered it a lot).
