Farke was talking to both after the whistle. And that was probably the subject.
Noticed this too, Andrew. Honestly, I can't remember a match where he isn't coaching someone as soon as the final whistle blows--great work ethic that DF :)

I read an article recently where Pep, Klopp and a few other top coaches were saying the optimum time for the brain to retain information was when the stimulation levels were at their highest, hence why all the top level coaches do that.

Can't wait to see you change your avatar to one of Farke instead of the Cjay photo you are currently using.

I hope you're black, or at the very least, young and non racist, although old and non racist is even better.

What brings you to follow LUFC Dappy, btw are you ex pat or native Indian ?
I’m 55 and not originally from Alabama. Definitely not racist, born and raised in Pittsburgh.

Been hooked ever since the 19-20 season and fell in love with the club following along that season and after watching the documentary Take Us Home. I’m Italian BTW and a ton of people from my current state are not racist. Tired ass stereotype.

Btw, did you want Bert sacked ?

I ask this in the full knowledge you're Italian as stated, what a great time to find LUFC huh, 19-20, hint hint.

I eagerly await your response.

It might be worth explaining the Bert reference. He could be scratching his head on that one.

Sounds like we have roughly the same origin story, ddapp, at least as it relates to Leeds United. My wife and I watched Take Us Home and fell in love with the team's history and culture and the rest, as they is history. We're both southerners--she's from NC and I'm originally from KY but now call the Appalachian mountains of NC home.
