The three clubs mentioned are starting to piss me off, however, you have got to imagine this is more a case of poor, sloppy journalism I.e. the unreasonable comparison between inferior clubs (recent performance) and ours based solely on historical reputations, financial business models and where they think we should have finished.
Villa gained promotion after being successful through the play-offs, their championship season seemingly off the rails, a bright eyed Dean Smith took over a club, from a manager who was last seen shopping in Aston with a list that included “things to go with cabbages“ after the Villa faithful had enough. He did well. Fast forward to last season they only just survived mustering up a worse xG against (65) than relegated Norwich, Bournemouth and Watford Udinese LTD and a team as injury prone as Gary Hooper. With the realisation that they have much to do defensively they have decided to remain content with the “give it Grealish“ and “try to out score every fucker“ tactics of yesteryear. The press are blinkered. They see that, Villa have money, are supported by a member of the royal family and that they did well in Europe in the same year Ozzy Osborne decided to eat a live bat on stage. Better than us blades.... No. Fucking. Chance! If a player is more bothered about money than he is ambition more fool Villa, I can see them getting milked by more players than Kyle Walkers escorts during lockdown.
Fulham another club to get promoted through the playoffs, money spunkers of the highest order who did well to comparatively have a similar xG against as Villa (65, worst in the division) the last time their club and hundreds of fans graced the top echelon of English football. FFC about as popular a brand in London as a police officer doing a stop and search exercise on an black Olympic athlete for no other reason than “that’s a nice car you‘ve got” or..... let’s say a light snow shower leading to scenes from the day after tomorrow. Maybe they will continue to spend stupid amounts of money to hijack players and make SSN headlines to satisfy a “little club competing” napoleon complex. But we blades know thats about as stupid as the excuse that the removal of the Micheal Jackson statue that stood in their car park was the reason for relegation. Yes, Fulham, we can hear you...now fuck off, we’re trying to achieve something that is sustainable.
Finally Leeds, the champions, the beauty of Bielsa ball. A style of play that will be accompanied by nothing but music from Benny Hill sketches until fans return to Bell End road as they wrestle the ball back from teams better than Luton. A team that takes more shots than an overly excited uni fresher and have fallen short so many times they have given the Wendy’s a run for their money. Statistically speaking creating 16.39 shot per 90 (1st) is 2 shots more than the next best team in the division added to the fact 5.5 of these were on target (1st) is impressive. It’s only when you consider that the mighty cats of Hull City and Millwall, amongst others, were more clinical in front of goal and, that, possession will not be as readily accessible because teams may decide to play football against them rather than shut up shop, a problem arises. The explosive nature of Sir Patrick of Bamfords mouth mixed with his average finishing ability (0.10 goals from shots on target) will leave him fishing for his boots at the bottom of an empty lady bower and Leeds wanting. Our very own Oli Mac Stat of 0.23 when in the championship literally makes him more than twice the player in this respect. But remember they used to be good, their a one club city, Amazon did a documentary on them an everything and “The gladiator“ is a fan. Better than us blades?, Jimmy muir would batter the shit out of the gladiator after a few.... jog on.
These clubs can continue to be “interested” and even steal signings from under our noses. I trust we will have other players on a shortlist to go after and despite the fact they may not have been our No1 targets it doesn’t matter. Because Wilder and Knill could work with a damp tea towel (or Jordan Rhodes) and get it bagging.
If your the agent or parent of a prospective future football superstar, please read the above. Then call the real mesters club Sheffield United. UTFBs!
