Leeds (Away) Match Thread - 02/11/2020

It's needs must guys, there's nothing to catastrophise about.

[TrentFox]

Surely 4-1-4-1 with Albrighton protecting Thomas and Praet wide right and tucking in?? 

[moore_94]

Almost like we have just been away to Greece, have a lot of injuries and players still builidng up match fitness, and have to look ahead to a game against the strongest team in our group in just 3 days...

 

People need to understand weird line ups like this are going to be a very regular thing this season

[Hales]

Just think we had this confusion before Man City and look how that turned out. I'm trusting Brendan 🤷‍♀️😉

[Nick]

Maybe it’s

 

justin Wes2 Fuchs Thomas

 

mendy

 

Albrighton Tielemans Praet Barnes

 

vardy

 

[floz]

Whole back 4 and Ndidi missing. Any team would struggle with that injury list. 

[Vacamion]

 

No defence.

 

So attack, then...

[egg_fried_rice]

I don't know what else you were all expecting? We're decimated. A point would be an excellent result.

[Cameron Davidson]

It’s shockingly strong, the team we could put out of our injured..... 

Ricky Evans Cags Tim

              Ndidi

       Madds  DA

Definitely sit back and hit on the counter. Think its our best chance of a victory. Hopefully vardy and barnes on the break will catch their players out of position. Koch and Cooper can be got at

We can still do them. We’re playing against a team with Liam Cooper in defence.

 harsh! 
 

Very nice bloke for what it’s worth 🤣

[Blue and white]

One centre back available and he still plays a back 5 😂

I find it almost impossible to moan when we are so injury ravaged. 

That's called perspective and not welcome here

Yep. Can see Tielemans and Praet (hopefully on form) feeding a rampant Barnes and Vardy. 

Not really many options left in defence. 

[Scotch]

Would like to have saw Ünder but I'm past questioning the line up. Any time I have, we've won and when I've been happy with it, we've lost so let's see what happens....

Plenty on here finding moaning as easy as usual. 

[Kasey Keller]

Bamfords second hatrick in a week incoming 

[kingfox]

An understandable set up, you can’t go all out attacking against Leeds and make it a basketball match or they’ll batter you.

 

Wolves went for the conservative approach against them and won 1-0, we’ve gone for what looks like a very similar approach.

 

It’s not going to be easy but if we approach this right, similar to Man City away, once we break past Leeds’ midfield, Vardy and Barnes could wreck havoc.

[Brainy]

Funny how since we've ran out of defenders we prefer to play 5 at the back

[adejo92]

That team is hideous.  That said, every time i slate Rodgers he seems to pull it off.

 

I'll just settle for the fact there is a reason he watches from the touch line and I watch from dodgy Vietnamese stream in my pants.

Up market Burnley?

What on earth is that? Maddison and Under on the bench. Where the hell is the creativity? This looks to be a typical sit back and do **** all BR performance. 

Which has proved successful in a very recent result against a usually-attacking side...

[Leicester_Loyal]

Injuries are absolutely killing us. A draw here would be a good result.

[StriderHiryu]

[1964w]

Our three Spanish international signings unavailable 

 

Rodrigo (Covid protocol)

Raphinha & Llorente both injured

 

Fortunately from a Leeds point of view Pablo Hernandez (class) replaces Rodrigo & our captain Liam Cooper returns
