I think we were a little bit found out today. Warnock has been playing with defensive wingers and it almost worked again but for a couple of banana sk...
The second half was the best I've seen us play as an attacking team since Woodgate's golden month. I thought the link up play between Bola and Coulson...
Great report as ever from RR. The strengths of the team continue to grow. Fry, McNair and Dijksteel have formed a real understanding. Howson, Morsy...
This a really good point. We have proved that we can go head to head with most of the best in the division but can we take a game to a weaker team and...
A couple of thoughts. With the exception of Bielsa and, briefly, Karanka, no manager has trusted Bamford. Until the weekend, the majority of Leeds fan...
I think we'll see a fairly compact 4-3-3 with Roberts not deemed ready to start yet. Bettinelli Dijksteel - Fry - McNair - Bola Howson - Morsy -...
Thanks for the report. I thought Fry, Dijksteel and McNair were excellent with Fry possibly having his best game in about 18 months. There was an i...
Damn, I should have predicted lottery numbers rather than a 4-3-3 formation.
I wonder if NW has gone for Roberts in order to play 4-3-3 rather than a bagging a 4th striker to keep with 2 up front. We still don't have a left bac...
Pros, I was impressed with Morsy. Tav looked a lot happier out wide. Fry did well. He struggles on the left of a three but he did really well in the c...
Feels like a slightly shambolic 2-2 with us going behind twice but, really, I have absolutely no idea. Teamwise, unless anything is going on behind ...
That's a fair report. On the positive side it was an energetic reasonably well-organised performance. Bournemouth were poor but that was partly becaus...
The gulf between the teams is wide and Bournemouth have started the season well so it's hard to see past a routine 0-2 defeat with us conceding early ...
The fundamental, simple truth is that we can't have everything. Until such time as the virus is brought under control and its impact reduced to nothin...
As far as I can tell we don't have the right players to play *any* tactic. Can't play 4 at the back because we don't have orthodox full backs, can't p...
That was miserable. I can only assume that Warnock was using it as a training exercise.
If Woodgate had started Coulson as a right wing back we would be raging at his incompetence. Fundamentally we have no idea how to attack and haven't ...
It'll be interesting to see what team and formation. I think he may try to stick with 3 at the back. I think I would go with Bettinelli Fry Hall W...
We had 6 corners in the match, one of which came after Wing came on. In total we had 4 attempts on target and 10 off target of which, after Wing came ...
That's fair enough and we do have a track record of ruining goal-scoring midfielders. We certainly haven't had a reliable left back since Saville join...
Thanks for a good report. I'm one of those who thinks that Saville looks busy but tends to hide. Runs around enough to look like he's contributing ...
A glass half something or other that game. Could easily have been 1-1, should probably have been 0-0. Their best was slightly better than our best. Al...
Prediction wise I'm going for an OFB: bit of a non-event.
People perceive places they don't know as stereotypes. Say Milton Keynes or Scunthorpe to anyone and you know what they'll think. Same is true for Mid...
I wonder if the Sol Bamba thing is an agent looking for a pay day. After all, Bamba has one year on his Cardiff contract and is hardly like to move fo...
@lenmasterman My issue with McNair is not his ability but his attitude. He seems to play when he feels like it. Pulis bought him then didn't play hi...
No. He's too similar to Fletcher and he misses too often. I would probably swap him for Fletcher but there's not much in it. I thought Taylor had alre...
@jarkko on the strikers front. Been meaning for a while to go and check how Bamford did compared to our strikers. Given that Bamford was playing in ...
I really hope that this is mostly paper talk because it doesn't make an awful lot of sense to buy yet more central midfielders. Our squad Goalkeeper...
That's the key thing isn't. Perhaps 10 years to make the money you and your family will live on for the rest of your life knowing that every game coul...
