Struggling to see how the pundits can find any positives in this Leeds performance but I’m sure they will.

That’s not in any way to say that if they play the same against us they won’t take the points, but this has been one of the most naive performances I can remember seeing at this level. A totally non-existent defence.
It reminds me of watching my daughter playing under nines football,it's great for the neutral :D

Sky are sugar-coating a tactically dreadful game. That was more like one of those Celebrity Charity matches

The older United fans still have a genuine dislike of Leeds. In the 80s and 90s the games between them were wild off the pitch, things like that aren't easily forgotten.

Watkins misses the target from 8 yards, clearly it's not just Chris Wood who fluffs easy chances.

Just looked into ‘whatever happened to Henri Lansbury’. He apparently rejected a payoff to leave the club in October and will stick it out until the summer when his contract ends. He’s not actually receiving that high a salary and would have probably have been the same if he’d come to Burnley.

Missed this earlier, AC Milan scored the quickest ever Serie A goal in history during their 2-1 victory at Sassuolo, timed at a mere 6 seconds.

I didn't watch, but assume he went for goal from kickoff? Direct, or was the scorer passed to first?

Not direct, but obviously straight from the KO.

Rafael Leao scored the fastest goal in Serie A history as AC Milan netted after just six seconds of their victory at Sassuolo on Sunday.

The Portuguese forward, 21, took Hakan Calhanoglu's pass in his stride to stroke the unbeaten league leaders ahead virtually from the kick-off.

An interesting stat is that we have both scored fewest home goals in the Premier League, and conceded fewest.
