    The result was most important (Wolves play the Spanners this round) .
    The performance is a bonus.

    Plenty of room for improvement (fortunately Leeds are not clinical enough) .
    On to the next one.

    I think Kulusevski's positioning and passing allows him to play his natural game.
    The ginger goes wide a lot and drops deep, which allows him to make runs inside and get around the box.

    Looking like a great signing so far. Been really impressed. Seems so well suited to Conte-ball and the Prem in general. If he keeps it up it’s safe to say that buy option’s getting triggered before the end of next season.

    He's clearly a work in progress, but it looks like he could make a lot of it.
    Impressive highlights so far and he seems happy to do the hard work, too.

    Chelsea getting dissolved coupled with a run of form could see the clause being triggered this summer...

    Bielsa looks broken. Leeds are going to have to make a change.

    Lucky for them, Mark Hughes is not available

    Seriously, I had to double check it wasn't a different Mark Hughes at Bradford

    Even though it's finished I'm waiting for VAR to disallow all of our goals and then give Leeds a penalty.

    Nah. Unless it's Alan Pardew.

    Rode our luck there , too many silly free kicks given away in the danger areas, on another day with better forwards we would have been under the cosh but I'm not going to turn down 4 goals and a clean sheet despite Hugo doing his best to stuff it up, bonus was a Kane master class in how to beat the press and improvement from Sess , at Burnley he looked to have no confidence and no clue what to do
    Onwards to leg 4 of our northern exposure , we need another strong start if we are going to progress in Tcup

    The aggressive press is not sustainable over 90 mins.

    The commentator said a lot of the goals leaked
    this month have been in the last 15 mins of the game.
    Given the scorelines then the cause is at least one
    of playing for pride, or exhaustion.

    Quite a few of those silly free kicks were figments of Pawson’s imagination/bias. He really is a very poor referee.

    A great performance today.

    Seems like we are on course for a 6/7th placed finish I reckon. Totally underwhelming for us again after the Poch era.
