Leeds Player Sightings page entitled, Evidence that Mrs Integrity replaced our old maid with Pontus

GIW. How did you find out? Was Mrs Integrity all flustered one night when you got home unexpectedly early? Was her hair looking like she'd been dragged through a hedge backwards? Did you spot a pair of her knickers going around on the bedroom ceiling fan? Or was it just the brilliant white and well pressed CLEAN SHEETS?

LIG Another clue was there were a couple of broken bricks in the garden.

Oh no, just when we thought it couldn't get any better, Shaun Harvey seems determined to burst our bubble according to wikipedia:

I knew it!

Very funny.

13 Sep 2017 21:17:17
It was all too good to be true. Our bubble getting burst as usual. 😂😂😂 very good MM 😝

Mr Micheal, have you been up to your naughty boy tricks again? 😂

14 Sep 2017 01:20:25
Classic, love it.

Is Bermondsey doing a George?

13 Sep 2017 23:22:28
Only George can do a George!

14 Sep 2017 14:28:05
He's done speedy a few times

Best thing about last night wasn't the goals, the clean sheet, or even going to at this early stage, it was winning ugly! Digging deep, grinding out a good result under a lot of pressure! That's what champions are made from!

13 Sep 2017 19:15:09
I can sort of understand what your saying Curahee but I don't think we won ugly, last season we won ugly when we played bad but last night we still held our shape and we kept our attacking options! The difference in my opinion is we played a team who were looking to really stop our fluent play, they did to a degree but apart from Aylings goal line block we were always ahead, if this was last season we would of panicked and lost our shape allowing them to score in the final minutes, you see we didn't have a plan B then and now we do and a lot more on top! Although under pressure we still played our style while soaking up all they had. We looked a little tired in the final quarter but we still looked good. People are saying we have only played teams at the bottom but if those teams had beat us then they would be in the top ten so it's to early to judge it that way! I do think we have the best squad in The Championship therefore I think we will stay there! MOT

Maybe digging deep would have been a better phrase. I don't see anyone apart from wolves challenging us act tye moment. It's very early but I'm not looking at the fixtures thinging ah that ones coming up!

13 Sep 2017 20:06:20
We have some tough ones coming up now mate, Millwall away, Burnley away, Ipswich home, Cardiff away, Sheff Wed away, Reading home! If we are still top and in the cup after that lot then we are dining very well! But to be fair I haven't seen many better teams than us in the league, what do you reckon Curahee? MOT

13 Sep 2017 20:49:48
From what I've seen there aren't any games that I look at and think we will be lucky to draw. I just honestly can't see at the moment any better teams in the league. We're rock solid at the back, solid in the middle and with so many options up front / creative players that I honestly think opposition managers don't know how to even begin to guess how we will set up.

13 Sep 2017 21:51:13
Totally agree pal but it's inevitable we will get beat sometime and it's going to hurt, that will be another test to see how we bounce back from it! But I'm with you, either to much optimism or I'm so far up my own LUFC backside, I just don't see any fixture a problem like some were last season! You know what mate, I'm just so going to enjoy this season no matter what because we have got a team not just a couple of players but a whole team who want to wear that shirt and a manager who in my opinion is a gem and an owner who loves us! So no matter what I'm so happy and I love buying the papers after a game! MOT

13 Sep 2017 21:53:18
Do you get to many games Curahee? I only get to the home ones on a weekend due to work or if I'm working from home I will go to midweek and sometimes away if my mate doesn't go! MOT

13 Sep 2017 22:05:00
Mate I don't. i'd love to, but family, job, distance and re-enactments all limit my opportunities

13 Sep 2017 22:57:01
Family and commitments are always first priority mate so totally understand. Never had kids, never really wanted them and not married but have a partner and she is a Children's Nurse in Manchester so I do get a lot of spare time which is usually spent with my two dogs who are like my children! MOT

Great start to the year and as excited as everyone what the future can hold. Surprised at the differences players like Cooper, O'kane and Dallas have been under a new Boss. Perhaps playing with new quality players have brought out their real potential. Loving what Saiz is doing, great work to bring such quality to our club. The squad appear to be confident, happy and in good head space now after some great results. The amount of yellow cards indicate the greater discipline that has come with the teams improvement. Can this be the year? Looking from afar one has plenty of hope and each game cannot come quick enough MOT boys keep on singing

Thinking the same yesterday about what tc has given some of the players that monk sucked dry. Tc got to know the squad quickly and got rid of the one dimentional players and kept ones that could adapt. Prob his only mistake was sacko. But that's ok. Its great to see coops okane dallas roofe and phillips all playing so much better. We have strength in depth in board management scouts and players.

13 Sep 2017 17:10:05
I did always think cooper got grief. I know he made mistakes but he's a championship player not champions league standard, factored in with the fact he is young for a defender always made me think he was going to end up the scapegoat like Tom lees. I'm happy for him because he does seem a very good pro.

13 Sep 2017 19:23:31
I agree about Coops, always admired the guy for giving it his all, just hoping his injury is not too bad.

13 Sep 2017 20:30:41
I wouldn't blame TC for Sacko, i don't think he had much of a say in that. what is good is that he quickly identified Sacko is struggling and took him out of the limelight. I still think he will improve in time and the additional quality we now have will give him that time.

14 Sep 2017 16:36:08
Hope Sacko is getting a good view of Alioski and Saiz and getting the hint that he is allowed to pass the ball :)

Oh happy days, oh happy days - Popped out for a walk this morning with young Eddie and check out what I saw, the morning after we reached the summit (sightings) . MM

Well two completely different types of game and we won both without conceding. Phillips and Pablo looked a bit weary last night but we still had enough. Dallas has greatly improved for us this season now he is being managed properly. Good bench as well so i will be more than happy to watch our second eleven against Burnley. Good times onwards and upwards mot

13 Sep 2017 16:12:04
Thought Phillips was one of our better players last night, broke loads of play up, agree about Pablo though, tries far too many killer balls for my liking, would like to see his pass completion stats, bet they aren't that great. good team effort, to lock 3 points up when your not at your best is what this league is all about
