Not really. Leeds won every game with +16 goal difference including beating us!

I get that, but does whoever decides these things take context in to account?

I think it’ll go to Farke considering Leeds perfect month. At least I can hope it will

Context being the respective value of the squads and the improvement generated by the manager?

Yes, otherwise it would just be a statistical exercise based purely on points gained.

True, but they also beat us during the month on our own patch.

It would be difficult to argue against Farke getting it. My original response was a little tongue in cheek! Maybe they should have a most improved category?

Farke has a 100% record, including beating us. So I’m going to vote Farke just to make sure…

Hopefully Farke gets it but I reckon it will be Lampard. So writing off a win on Saturday now, could be a draw.

Best possible scenario this really. Lampard will rightly get lots of praise but ultimately Farke has to win it so we avoid the curse. Win win.

Really hope Leeds finish in the top 2, really don’t want to play them in the playoffs.
