Another hammering for Leeds would be nice.

 

Wonder if they’ll sack Bielsa? Would be interesting to see who they’d get instead, possibly someone like Allardyce to try and tighten them up at the back. Would be an absolute disaster and almost certainly relegate them if they did.

Biesla is gonna get the shove soon, I think.

 

Would be like admitting Leeds can't afford to buy the players which would make his methods work. Truth is, they just aren't a good enough team to play such attacking football. Nothing wrong with Bielsa as a manager IMO, but he needs top players to implement such a style.

Yup - their lack of a quality centre-forward has been telling. Phillips also a huge miss.

 

Kane makes it 3-0.

Lovely stuff, 3 points today would be massive.

 

3 points today and we should be confident going into Brighton at home, who have fallen off a cliff recently. Win that too we would be on 28 points and be 8 games unbeaten. A lot rides on today imo.

Brighton haven't fallen off a cliff. They've lost 2 games in a row, 1 very unlucky Vs man utd.  They were unbeaten in 5 before that.

A point wouldn’t be a disaster imo. Of course we should be going for all three but as long as we remain unbeaten the momentum is there.

Got to be the end of the road for Bielsa unfortunately. The critics of him do have a point it's ludicrous how poor Leeds defense is and there can be no excuse. It shouldnt be forgotten how he built the team up with a comparatively tiny budget. As a lot of first time promoted teams that are coached well they overperformed last season. They have had a lot of bad luck with injuries but Bielsa hasn't helped that by neglecting to buy new players when as I understand it transfer funds were there.  Last season was a very good achievement this is more reversion to the norm. He should go and he has left them probably back in teh championship but with some players they can sell for very large amounts to refresh the squad, parachute payments etc should leave them in very good stead to rebuild and return to the premier league after a year out.

Yip. A point today takes us up to the dizzy heights of 15th providing City does the country a favour and shafts Everton. 

 

Keeps us unbeaten and hopefully have a fully fit ASM going into the Brighton game.
