I think your Andy King bubble is burst Seriously, what does it matter? It's not about me, or you. I didn't even say I loved him as a player - I just reject needless hatred.
SheppyFox Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 Enjoyed watching Armatey powering into the space in the middle of the park with the ball, big fan of players doing that.
MarriedaLeicesterGirl Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 Amartey and Iborra were amazing. Gray and Chilwell are always improving (and probably deserve the start this weekend, and thought his defensive work was good tonight. Nacho is a work in progress, Slimani was solid (and if Okazaki wasn't scoring every game, I'd be tempted to pair him and Vardy), Maguire and the Dragon are the future (if we get a permanent deal with him), and King and Albrighton were both substandard. First half was a bit of sh^tshow at times, but they aren't playing together every week (although to be fair, neither were Leeds second team).
Julian Joachim Jr Shabadoo Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 Just now, Paddy. said: Thought we were ace tonight. Credit to Appleton for his selection and tactics- excellent. That said, those saying he should get the job have very short memories! Definitely agree about the first sentence but... ...I think we should be in absolutely no rush about getting a new manager in. Appleton has instilled a lot of discipline and desire in a very short space of time. The whole team is making great passing moves, hoofing is down, we are looking a real threat. With Everton coming up there's a great opportunity for Appleton to show he's worth more time. Far too early to say he'd be worth a permanent contract but surely the owners would rather keep a good thing going than chucking everything at Puel, Giggs or Pardew just because they're available?

Positive result against an Everton who'll likely be out to make an impression and it suggests at least we could keep him in position until a decent managerial candidate pops up that's worth it, no point rushing it if Appleton can keep the ship steady.
Milo Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 Well, this is fun Fast, aggressive, direct and clinical.
Loves2spooge Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 SlimBoi is top scorer , considering Norwich and Leeds are out http://www.espnfc.com/english-carabao-cup/41/statistics/scorers
FoxFossil Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 Noticed how players were looking for Iborra at all times, confidently knowing he can keep the ball and pass forward. Add in Silva after Christmas..tasty. Gilfi who?

I don't hate him, I just love my club more then any player, and have no room for sentiment, or below average players in my team. And if someone is below par, as a fan I'm disappointed and Infact disgusted, cus we can do better.

So why are you using it to bait me, when I overlooked your attitude and sent you a link for the match?
steveherbe Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 Can we have Bournemouth away next round, a home match for us lot.
dynamark Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 Loved the second goal very tidy footy involving some serious quick football. Could probably take just king and hamer out no offence to both and still a prem team. On a good run
dmayne7 Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 King and Iborra worked well together and I think that's because we had 4 defenders comfortable on the ball. Meant they can take their time and wait for that 5 yard forward pass that has us facing the goal in the opposition half.

We moan about some Premiership games, but the Championship is on another level of low. Still, great performance in the second half and Amartey looked very composed on the ball. I'm more stunned about that than the result tbh. Wolves drawing at man city, Norwich taking Arsenal to et and Bristol city beating Palace? I think it shows that we have some good players who can turn it on when it matters

Izzy Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 Leeds support sounded great btw. Best away supporters in the country imho Hope they get back in the PL soon
Bablemikey Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 Really liked the support Amartey provided going forward. Made a real positive change having that option for our midfielders.
the fox Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 ben and gray on the left, amartey and riyad on the right next game pls
Bossman Blessed It Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 For some reason my mind couldn't help but wonder back to the Milwall game away where we played arguably the worst football all season. We are stronger this year - both mentally and in ability. Reasons for hope that the golden era isn't quite over just yet - a cup win would be magical.
whoareyaaa Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 Just now, the fox said: ben and gray on the left, amartey and riyad on the right next game pls what about Albrighton, he has to start every single game

Nigel Graham Pearson Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 1 minute ago, the fox said: ben and gray on the left, amartey and riyad on the right next game pls With Drago and Maguire at the back. Imagine...
kingfox Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 Slim has been great ever since Pre Season. Has looked more confident, his link play has been much better, he's actually winning headers and he's been scoring goals. Starting to slowly look like the player we were hoping to see.
psychonaut Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 Poor first half apart from the last 5/10 mins. Started slow in the 2nd but then shifted up a good few gears and played some nice stuff. Our quality shined through in the end and we made Leeds look like a sh1tty championship side. I thought Harry and Drago linked up very well, surely the future back two. Both very comfortable on the ball. I'd say either Amartey or Iborra for motm. King his usual phantom self. Grey his usual frustrating self, a lack of intelligence when he needs it mixed with an eye for glory a little too much I think. Shame as he always looks threatening. Albrighton I thought was poor. Mahrez coming on gave us that edge in the final third. Pleased for Iheanacho. Onwards and upwards!
Babylon Posted 24 October 2017 Posted 24 October 2017 If Puel likes to bring the youngsters through it will be interesting to see what he does with Gray, Chilwell and Amartey.
