The Kop Klopp Kult is a bit of a mouthful. Maybe we could abbreviate that somehow. Any ideas?

Of course, there is the whole bonesaw thing to consider.

Ward Prowse, all the clamber for him but you can see why no one takes a punt. Without his FKs he is bang average

Watching the Saudi Sportswashing Machine v West Ham game yesterday I thought it was evident that Saudi Sportswashing Machine’s centre backs give them a real platform to play from. They don’t have to hide Schar and Botman away in a three, yet both still look really solid. I thought Gordon also showed that he’ll be an upgrade on ASM for Saudi Sportswashing Machine, he appears to have intelligent movement, good touch and and really good vision.
For West Ham, their Moroccan centre back, Aguerd looked superb. Both Botman and Aguerd show that it is possible to get in very good centre backs suited to the PL if you have a decent scouting and recruitment set up.

I disagree here. I think he could easily become the best attacker in Europe.

He will need this season to get his ideas across to a whole host of new players. I hope they sack him as otherwise I think they will be very good next season.

Maybe, but in todays game you can't be only an attacker. You need to defend as well, and his stats from previous years showed him having virtually zero defensive contribution. Maybe that league allowed him to, but he won't survive in the PL if he continues down that path. He's got skills, but he'll need more than that. Let's see. I'm not convinced, and it's no doubt they vastly overpaid for him.

Am I the only one who thought Casimeros red was harsh?

Augerd was class in France
He really stood out
Haven’t seen him here because of his injuries
He has a really calm way of playing
Gordon will be interesting. He has some ability but it’s potential and nothing else imo

George Hunt
It was. But I don't care. There were others that should have been sent to the showers together with him if there is to be any form of consistency!

I agree. First angle made it look like a proper throttle but another one showed more of hand on shoulder and shirt

A back four can just as easily hide deficiencies at CB, all depends on what goes on around and in front of the centre backs. When we drop back into a 5-4-1 think you can argue that we try to hide some of those deficiencies, but not to a greater extent than a team dropping back into a 4-5-1 imo. Our usual not quite dropping back into a 5-4-1 style, is actually rather demanding, particularly for the wide centre backs.
Agree that Schar and Botman are very good players. Haven't seen Aguerd before, but also looked really good yesterday. I think we want to bring in a centre back at an even higher level than "very good and suited to the PL" to look to really push on another level. At least that's what the links to Bastoni and Gvardiol seems to me.

Leeds next two games are both against United before they visit Everton. If they are not in a relegation battle already, they certainly will be soon
