    Top 6 Rev

    Weve lost against 2 sides who we don’t normally do well against anyway, we still have the best goal difference in the league, still in auto promo positions, and will still be top 6 even if the teams with a game in hand win them, considering all the changes at the club from top to bottom, still a very good start, after this Sunday it’s a quarter of the season played, and it’s a damn better start than last season whatever happens, im happy up to now, I still think top 2 is on for us, no runaway team at this stage, and on paper, no team with the spending power that some had last season

    Automatic promotion.

    Lasogga's better than Wood. we are better at Midfield than last year and our backs are comparable (excluding yesterday). we are deeper than most of the championship.

    we are going to struggle with physical teams. that cat's pretty much out of the bag after Millwall. I think TC can make an adjustment. It's not like Jannson, Lasogga, Grot or Ayling are cupcakes. I think TC got caught off guard in the physical nature of English Football at this level.

    Once he adjusts we'll be as good as anyone.

    Our aim and it's no secret is top six, that's where the bar is set. Me being a realistic LEEDS fan as always will say auto as I do every season! That's my expectations till I pop em.

    Ten games in I'd say this league is staying true to form....

    Pretty much what I think George..always wishing/hoping/expecting us to get auto

    And 10 games in..2nd place ain't bad is it..but the 2 games we lost have hurt a bit.

    What do you lot think about Wolves at the moment, they were very lucky to beat us at the weekend and they didnt look anything like a top 2/3 side. And Cardiff are another surprise team these days, who would have expected them and Colin W*nker to be doing so well.

    We all know the score down here. Wasn't Newcastle at the lower end the first five or six games in last season? Hard work and consistency is the answer, I think when burnley went up is a great example. Bunch of players no one had hardly heard of but did the business. If our guy can drum that into them we've got a chance. Early days Acido to make calls......roll the dice!

    what about this scenario, titles are not won after 10 games, so many new players the opposition haven't had chance to do their homework, a few games in and they are being found out, teams will know how to play against us and we have a soft underbelly, TC is a one trick pony and has been found out.Mid table finish as usual, and that will make some on here delirious with joy.


    Me though? cant see us finishing outside the top 1.

    Play our strongest eleven each week and stop tinkering, top 6 then.
