Tears of joy from Martin Tyler as Patrick Bamford puts another sitter out for a throw in.
Burnley down to 10 men after 20 mins and Pope making 90 saves, including 3 pennos..
Dyche running on the pitch at the end. Wearing just a button up shirt. Soaked to the skin as it’s been pissing down all game.
Tattoo of a British Bulldog clearly visible on his arm.

I can see it now.
 
The Premier League has confirmed seven positive coronavirus tests among players and staff in its latest round of testing.

A total of 1,569 players and club staff members were tested between December 14-20; the seven people who have tested positive are self-isolating.

Bielsa beating his interpreter to death in the post match interview and showing the prison break style full body tattooed tactics of “Bielsa Ball” covering his entire body whilst screaming “Victorian era Football” at the general direction of Dyche
 
None of them. There isn't a team in the world worth paying £50 to watch in my opinion.

My point is that if you're a supporter of a side then the fact that they're entertaining neutrals is scant consolation when they're getting blitzed 6-2 by a side you have an historic grudge with. But according to some Bielsa cultists Leeds fans should be grateful to pay for and see that kind of thing and followers of every other club should hope for the same for their club.

Personally, I much preferred Joe Royle's "Dogs Of War" winning the FA Cup with less than pretty football and ruining the medias dream Spurs v Man Utd final. Why? Because it was the team I support winning stuff and ruining somebody else's day. Could not care less whether it appeals to "proper football" pseuds and their ideas that playing a certain way is more important than achieving the aim of the game.

It's head patting gone wild.
I don’t know how Leeds fans think about it but I imagine they’re not viewing that match in isolation. They won their previous game 5-2. They’re squad is a lower mid table one at best. They could’ve played like a Tony Pulis team with lower goal margins and no one would be complaining about them.
