….that’s a bit like saying ‘the Reds never play long balls, they play long passes’.

Not really. It's not a difference in description.

Parking the bus means not committing anything to attack. Counter attacking football is a strategy to attack in a certain way from deep and as often as is possible.

Went Elland Road a couple of times way back when they had Revie. Hate the place and the team, a dirty bunch they were.

Went during the Jimmy Armfield era. nearly got crushed in the away end, got legged back to the station, lost me footie special train ticket out of me parka pocket and had to sit in the police compartment at the back

As far as i could see Brian Clough played counter attacking football , and it worked for him

The place will be like Emmerdale on steroids, ludicrous marching on together screaming from the stands, walking dead wool pack style after their Mancunian drubbing.

Imagine 40,000 Neil Wornock’s and your there. Up pops our lad, Yorkshire and Sheffield’s finest to slot home the winner 1-2 the the super blues.

And he has a man bun. We have the complete antidote to these reptiles.
 

Leeds are very well organised and they work their hoojies off for 90 minutes. With the crowd behind them they will be very tough competitors. We need to work just as hard as them. Man for man I think we have a bit more quality and maybe an edge in confidence after last week

Can we pull James away from Twitch for 90 mins. We need his grit for this one.
 
Pickford
Holgate Mina Godfrey Digne
Doucoure Gbamin Allan
Townsend DCL Richarlison

Coleman, Davies and Gray all to come on and close out a tight win for Los Caramelos. 2-1, DCL and Richarlison for us and Raphina for them.
 
Everton Will look a Lot better away from goodison park. Home games Will be a Lot more like the Southampton first half . The reason is simple : Home games vs similar teams forces playing on the front foot, defenses can sit and clear the crosses wich imo were abused in that Game (Zero combinations, diagonals+ passes to the holes...)

While away (specially vs Bielsa all out teams) everton can sit and launch townsend/gray/ richarlison with 70 mters behind Leeds rb and lb.. everton is designed to win the rb or lb back and Cross it .. (don't Even speak about doucures goal , that was 1 hello od a Fluke , the guy Lost control , turn around Lost and just let it go, luckly it was 1 hell of a shot )
