Leeds Utd v Liverpool

[Kenneth]

Well

I've felt flat and disillusioned since day one after Fulham, but for the first time I feel properly optimistic again. That was great last night, after an average first 30. Felt like we earned the right to play and moved them around, wore them down.

I think we're gonna win every game from here. Could end up looking and feeling foolish, but with all our players back, a clear target to aim for now, and Trent's new role working a treat (for now!) I think we have reason for renewed optimism. We have no excuses. Villa at home looks our toughest test. We're winning all these:

I wouldn't expect anything else from the site's most resolute pessimist.

It's amazing the difference when we have some confidence, if we could start games like we played for the last hour, we'd be in a much better position

Definitely. Amazing what a week on the training pitch has done as well though...they looked like they've actually been coached last night

fwiw I think we may win the rest of our games too

They're all winnable aren't they; I'd say Villa might be the toughest test, caveat being this season it's hard to know, feels like we've turned a bit of a corner but I've thought that before!

I hope we continue to work on this new shape for the rest of the season which would hopefully stand us in good stead for the start of next season.

And Jota for the first 30 mins was as bad as I’ve ever seen from one of our players. He was diabolical

He surrendered possession to Leeds 15 times in the first half according to Sky in their post match coverage.

IMO it's all about momentum, if we win our next two or three games IMO we'll have a good run to the end of the season, lose to Forest or West Ham and we're back to where we were.

Win the next two then we have 3 games at Anfield in a week. We could be seriously motoring.

I thought we were finding our feet again with that string of 2-0 wins in Feb followed by the demolition of Man U.

But then we came crashing down to Earth against Bournemouth. I’m still wary of those listless performances appearing again in the run in.

Stop it. Just stop it. I can't get my hopes up again!

Stop it. Just stop it. I can't get my hopes up again!

Getting your hopes up is what makes footy worth watching though.

Me too, but I feel much better than I did then mostly due to having an almost fully fit squad and Trent's new role. I know Leeds are wank, but I honestly think we have more reasons to be positive now.

Stop it. Just stop it. I can't get my hopes up again!

I've felt a near total lack of hope all season and it's been so grim.

I've got them losing to Arsenal, drawing at Everton and - arrgghh - forcing myself to think they'll bottle it and lose at Chelsea. That gives them 13 points and a 69 point finish. We need to win all ours to reach 71.

Yeah this season has been really grim, but I felt myself looking at the table and thinking I wonder...
