Leeds (H) | 12.30 KO | BT Sport | Pre-Match Thread

[Guest Lcfc82]

Looks like Hamza as the 3rd centre back to me. Albrighton and Thomas wing backs.

 

Hopefully that’s not the right team anyway

Pretty good unfortunately 

[miles2lcfc]

It’s the same team from Burnley apart from hamza covering right back due to injuries and Vardy starting. Not sure what else anyone expects? If Maddison was fit there’s an argument for him replacing Tielemans. 

[FOXSE]

If that is the team, that's 4 academy players starting..... that's pretty impressive.

[Stephen Hughes]

Leeds seem good value at 3/1

Supposed team for tomorrow…

Oh god no, thats a team to play on form Man city away if theres no one at all fit!

Not crappy Leeds at home!

Still at least Perez isn't in there to put a top hat on it.

Do hope this is wrong ☹️

[Swalker]

If that is the starting team, I’d read that as Albrighton at RB and a narrow diamond in midfield

I'm genuinely very excited for this game, it's so rare you see two teams just going at each other and trying to win the game. Really hope it plays out this way tomorrow. Nothing better than two managers that back their highly paid players to be able to play decent football and try and win the game rather than sitting back and hoping the odd counter attack will bare fruit.

 

6-5 either way!

......we are very good at playing on the counter!!!

They could come here and try and feel their way into the game, it would be rather unwise to come out all guns blazing, when you are not drilled into certain tactics and philosophy. We will come out strong for the first 5-10 minutes, try to impose ourselves on them and see if we can catch them cold.

  Much likely a cagey game with not much in it.

Could be

 

Kasper

 

Amartey

Ndidi

Souyncu

Thomas

 

Choudhury

Tielemans

KDH

 

Albrighton

Vardy

Barnes

 

🤷🏻‍♂️

[Brainy]

Not really into virtue signalling at all but given how it wouldn't be a huge change, it would be cool if we were to wear yellow shorts tomorrow (so our kit is effectively a Ukrainian flag, for anyone 2 dense 2 understand)

I refuse to accept this notion even though will most likely be right

I stand by my 6-5 prediction haha

That's a horrible team at first glance. Lacking in creativity and pace. A back 5 would be a poor decision and a midfield diamond would be better suited picking Iheanacho to play up top with Vardy and Barnes in behind them both.

I don't mind hamza for this type of game but i agree kelechi needs a damn run in the squad. He's done nothing wrong it seems Rodgers has a personal vendetta against him because he's not "HiS idEaL" type of player. Be more pragmatic ffs. That front three would tear them to shreds. Shame

[Ian Nacho]

I don’t have any qualms with that lineup but Lookman has been out best player within the last month or so.

Fair play to Thomas, shows how highly Rodgers thinks of him. Personally don't think he's been quite as good as that but very good to see how he's progressing. 

I don't think we've really had one player that truly stands out so far this season have we?

 

Probably Madison for me.

[turlo]

I'm sure Jesse Marsch is delighted to know the surprise changes Rodgers is planning to make a day before the game.

No Maddison will be a huge blow if he's out. We need KDH to start to improve his creative side and Tielemans to rediscover his.

Nothing wrong with KDH's creative side, he's just not had anyone to finish after he's played them through. When he gets on the pitch with Vardy we will see him getting 2-3 assists per match.

He hates Kel tho, not even a joke at this stage 

Pretty sure that the Nachoman has shagged Brendan's wife and daughter. There's not really any other explaination at this point.

Maybe he just doesn’t fit the system we play? Maybe he hasn’t been good enough in the games he has played this season?

Maybe he just isn’t as good as Vardy and Daka - maybe it’s all of the above.

Pretty sure, managers will pick the best side they think is available and Iheanacho isn’t in our strongest 11 at all.

That'd be some going he'd have the leading assists over a season in the league after 4-5 games.

Clearly not. Our manager has played Vestergard, Bertrand and Perez in the first team at various points this season. Even with the injuries we've had those 3 donkeys are clearly not present in a strongest available 11. 

[trabuch]

We are going to twat them.
