*~*~* Dirty Leeds v Sunderland match thread *~*~*

[Venkman]

I'm having a little internal chuckle, setting us up identically to last time we played them.

Big difference is last time Pritchard orchestrated everything for us on the pitch.

Be lucky to see us have a shot on goal.

 

[mad maxim]

Can we count that hoof out as a shot? Might be our only one for a while.

 

[Arfa Sleep]

Park the f***ing bus!

2-0 Leeds and they don’t break sweat all day. Perfect game for them and Dodds will come out saying it was a solid performance who already said in his pre match that Leeds are a PL side !

He's not wrong, they largely are.

9 straight league home wins for this lot

 

[Idlewild Mackem]

Who would you play instead?

I'd probably pick a midfield that can keep the game a bit more congested so they aren't left alone. We have very few options so you make a decent point, but going of what the line-up looks like I think we'll get overran. Happy to be wrong.

Ganna be a long night....

 

[cluffy]

Are we playing Rafa-tactics again??

 

[Sea to Shining Sea]

Wtf is the point in setting up like this?

Because we won 1-0 at home doing this to them and he was deemed a tactical mastermind in some quarters.

All I can is, I’m already looking forward to our new pitch next season at the SoL to bring our playing style to life.

 

[The Situation]

Stop hoofing the ball away O'Nien FFS.

 

[Millhouse]

Jobe might make a decent centre back given the amount of clearances he makes

 

[hank williams]

You can only hear our lot

 

[Almost Genius]

Pathetic this, setting up like we're playing man City away. Smaltime

 

[R5Skywalker]

Can we class that clearance by O'Nien as an attempt on goal?

 

[southstander]

Get up ya soft ****

 

[Robanner]

He's not wrong, they largely are.

Maybe. But how’s that turned out for the likes of 100 point Burnley?! Because you might get out of the championship doesn’t mean you’d be any good in the PL! Bamford upfront on his own?!

 

[DonaldDownTheWing]

I’ve tried to find what the lowest ever possession in the championship is, but haven’t managed it. I reckon it could be broken tonight. We aren’t even trying to keep the ball.

Flashbacks to his headed clearance away to Southampton

Bit like Chelsea away. Just need a full back to dribble into their box past a few players.... Dead easy

 

[McGregor]

You only have to blow on Jobe and he's down.
