Whitley mag Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Completely agree with this from Hope, I like Joelinton but I would play him on the left instead of Fraser, or bring him on to carry the ball later if we continue playing the 3 as Howe seems to like.

Hanshithispantz Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Joelinton is a far better central midfielder than Longstaff though. It's not even close. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I know we defended well today, but we still need CB's in. We were a bit flattered by Leeds not having a striker, it's one of the reasons I fancied us for a win before the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 More I see it the more I’m convinced it was a double hit. The pace on it just doesn’t seem right for it not hitting his standing foot. Lovely stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Do yous honestly believe that the turnaround was because Sean Longstaff came on? Think about it man. Ebb an flows happen in football, it's quite a leap to think Joelinton going off suddenly stopped Leeds pressing us to death. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantail Breeze Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Can’t say I noticed any change at all. Our game plan was clearly to nullify the game and go for it in the second half. Longstaff played well when he came on, but Joelinton was playing well before he went off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Thought the Manquillo sub was more of a turning point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Manquillo on for Dummett made a bigger difference in the second half tbh. I'd be fine with Longstaff playing 45 minutes, but he's not able to play a full 90 minutes. Joelinton beasts it from start to finish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clockwork Cheese Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 (edited) Just watched the game back, huge result - certainly one I wasn't expecting! Leeds looked pretty toothless up front without Bamford, but we did with Wood though. Impressed with midfield matching Leeds' intensity and bothering to get in their faces - that was night and day from Bruce's performance there last season where we didn't lay a glove on them (Shelvey moaning Rodrigo running around too much). Dubravka - 7 Solid enough, not tested too much Trippier - 7 Wasn't worried by Harrison, not helped going forward playing on same side as Fraser Lascelles - 6 Meh, wasn't as shite as normal. Clark - 6 Won a header I think, hoofed a ball. Fortunately not on long enough, or involved in much to cause us any harm. Schar - 7 Better than usual Dummett - 5 Fuck all going forward, got in the way a few times, but turned inside out by Raphinha as expected. Manquillo 7 Vast improvement on Dummett. Not as stiff as PD, and bothers crossing halfway line. Joe - 7 Strong, used the ball well, and broke up play when on. Longstaff - 7 Vast improvement on what we're usually treated too. Shelvey - 8 - Fortunate with Meslier spanner handing his FK in, but thought he was decent throughout - like Longstaff, much better than usual. Willock - 6 Good first half, but anon in the second. ASM - 5 Consensus from his thread that he had better game, but thought he had a twat of a performance.. Constantly throwing his arms up in the air and having a strop with Fraser. Looked like he deliberately played one-two with Fraser straight after not playing him in, just to give it away. Offered usual threat dribbling forward, but everything he tried was nullified or just shite. Spent over a minute to get back in shape after his lie down and throwing toys out after no penalty. Fraser - 4 Hopeless. Drags down efforts and effectiveness of ASM and Trippier when they have to link up with him. Wood - 4 Leeds CBs seemed to win everything in the air, and what he did win/hold up was just to nobody or shite. No threat on goal whatsoever other than his pop-shot late on, can't remember him linking up or involving himself whatsoever.
