Maybe in the same way Bielsa is one of the best managers in the world. There are few worse goal keepers in the Premier League. Third most saves means nothing, most mislead stat - without looking who are the two ahead of him? Sam Johnson and Areola? The teams with the worst defences have keepers who make more saves. If Leeds had a better goalkeeper they would be about 10 points better off. We wouldn’t be 5 points of Man City just by having a better keeper.

Clever Fox Posted 29 January 2021 Share Posted 29 January 2021 1 hour ago, gw_leics772 said: Nice idea to replace ndidi. I'd like that. Lots of praise for Mendy last game but I didn't feel it myself, so kept my.moith shut as thought I must have missed something. I like this idea, seems tailor made for either cage or fofana though rather than ricardo if you are talking "like for like" position wise (and if you're not, ignore me 😀{but I still like the idea, especially if it's my idea}) ( More edit notes, I've had a ****ing made there!) Mendy was excellent when he came on the other night but he lacks the mobility Wilf gives us and he tends to pass sideways or backwards. Both Fofana and Soyuncu have shown that they are strong in the challenge, Mobile, good in the air and comfortable on the Ball. So instead of leaving one of them on the bench with Wilf out why not play one in a straight swap for Wilf, And the other alongside Evans. It should make us equally as strong in midfield and stop Leeds getting any kind of a foothold in the game. While also giving us an opportunity to see an alternative system in play. I don't think we would lose anything in trying it out. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houdini Logic Posted 29 January 2021 Share Posted 29 January 2021 One good thing about COVID is that I'm not allowed to go to Elland Road this year and be told to sit down constantly for 90 minutes while 30,000 other people are standing 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Leeds Fox Posted 29 January 2021 Share Posted 29 January 2021 Going to be a tough game. They are struggling at cb with llorente out but phillips and raphinha didn't play the first time and will make them better. Shame they are weak at set pieces as not exactly a strength of ours! Good thing is that if we play the same way as we did on Wednesday, we should create a lot of chances. Feel barnes and madders key for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talking_goldfish Posted 29 January 2021 Share Posted 29 January 2021 Just reading some of the stuff from Bielsa's press conference and he really does talk some proper crap. You've got to feel sorry for his translator - to be fair he looks more than impressed in the image taken at this presser..! https://www.leeds-live.co.uk/sport/leeds-united/marcelo-bielsa-every-word-leicester-19727098 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OadbyBlue Posted 29 January 2021 Share Posted 29 January 2021 (edited) If Leeds fans, who I’m sure watch a lot more of Leeds than the average Leicester fan on here, are telling you that their keeper is actually pretty good, he probably is A mistake on Sunday would be nice though Would be a lot more confident going into this with Ndidi, however mendy played a blinder at Elland road Edited 29 January 2021 by OadbyBlue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARTY_FOX Posted 29 January 2021 Share Posted 29 January 2021 Yea think some are quick to forget how dismissive of some of our players teams were when we came up.

Manini Posted 29 January 2021 Share Posted 29 January 2021 We’ll have to play a different kind of game to Wednesday night. Sit in nice and tight and look to pick them off on the break, they can’t deal with it and Bielsa doesn’t have the defence to be able to combat it yet. If we look to carve them open like we did Everton then it’ll be end to end. Taking our chances (like the game at Elland Road) will be very important. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuchsntf Posted 29 January 2021 Share Posted 29 January 2021 We have won without Vardy, We have won without N'didi...we have won without both.... We are 3rd & been competing around Top 6 all season..!!! Of course Leeds could have the Drop on us, like any team... I wouldnt expect our fan base to either be arrogant or entitled...but..!! WE seem to be over cautious, and more willing to Chase & Search for negatives, Shouldnt we start being more optimistic.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s funny because at the time we came up, them and Swansea were seen as the model to follow as a promoted club to establish yourself in the league, after a couple of top half finishes and a European campaign each. Didn’t take too long for us to surpass them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
