Leeds and Swansea

Leeds and Swansea are starting to look like the favourites for automatic

[Mince n Tatties]

Is that the same Leeds who are favs every season,but come Jan -Feb time they bottle it.😊

Don't you dare say that, it's only been 5 games, let's see where we are come Xmas.... Meh

In al seriousness, I said Leeds would romp the championship this season, and I stand by that prediction. All FFC fans keep saying is they'll bottle it again, but, there's only so much bottling they can do. They're more settled this season, Bielsa is a quality coach, and they'll finish well ahead of us.

Yes, Swansea look good, so do Bristol City, Preston, and quite a few others. It'll be the playoffs for us, if consistency doesn't kill us first. Could be a lot further behind come Cardiff, West Brom, Weds..

They won't bottle it this season.

said everyone about Leeds at exactly the same point last season. Long way to go

[Whitestone]

Leeds and Swansea have certainly started well but too early in the season to think either will be there come May, although I reckon Leeds will be there or thereabouts. Norwich were off the pace after 5 games last season and so are we if we have ambitions for top two.  Long way to go.

Wolves had accumulated 10 points after 5 games in 17/18 and ended on 99 points.

We are the flare team in the division but Leeds are looking solid and will not be giving a lot away. I think Leeds will build on their lead and look unstoppable come Christmas.
To avoid disappointment we should start thinking of lots of entertainment with a top six place at the best.

Yep, don't get all these fans who automatically assume Leeds will bottle it again. At some point, they'll get it right, and I reckon it'll be this season. They just seem a little different under Bielsa, well organised, no-nonsense, and smashing in the results. Like you, I feel they'll be well clear and unstoppable by Christmas.

Talking about Leeds there is a good series on Amazon Prime documenting them last season called 'take us home leeds'. Maybe not as good as the Sunderland series but the transfer saga regarding their attempt to sign Daniel James shows how hard it can be to sign players on deadline day.

Well worth a watch

[FFCFOREVER]

Just wait for the blip. We've had ours onwards and upwards.COYW

They won't bottle it this season.

Agreed. Think they'll be going up this time.

Leeds didn't bottle it last season, they simply run out of gas with their waffer thin squad, adding Costa and others changes that dramatically. Bielsa is the best coach in the championship, he will deliver.

You will be telling us next that Fabri is Fulhams best Goalkeeper.

Think they've bottled it last 4 seasons.
£20 for charity says they don't go up automatic top 2.
Are you on Don Revie?...😜

[Mince n Tatties]

No response from TRF....You've obviously bottled it like Leeds do...lol

I'll gladly have this bet with you. I'll give £20.00 to Cancer Research if Leeds bottle it again, if they don't, you donate.

Too early, and they haven't played us.   

Yes...they are high in the table in week 5.

[barwonwhite]

They are a good team, but they, like us lost points, the only points they have dropped, against Nottingham Forest, drawing at home 1-1.

[Mince n Tatties]

Jimsbeerbelly....I'm giving T R F a few days to respond,if not gladly.😊
And the bet is top 2 automatic, not play offs.
