    No, no, mate. We shall leave the thread right here, to act as reminder to all of us to keep the faith and trust in the process.

    Leave the thread.. One game isn't enough to invalidate the claim. Not every side is going to put their smallest player on android 16.

    Why not? It's a great tactic.
    Every team should do it.

    The beauty of it was that we only needed it to work once.

    We must be the worst side I ever seen in my life at set pieces... Like this is the thing even **** teams can do reasonably well.

    Not only that but the other team are more likely to score on the counter attack, Leeds did it in the first half.

    I'm really surprised Howe has let it go on so long tbh.

    How pro footballers can consistently not get the ball above head height from a corner is something i will never ever understand.

    Well if I was a manager and this was constantly happening then I would put Schar or Burn at the front post to flick it on.

    The amount of **** corners that either hit the first man of defence or drifted into the GK hands was ****ing annoying me yesterday.

    Howe is the type of guy that has used the same marmalade for his entire life. Trippier is never going to be off corners mate as long as he's in the side.
