Leeds 28/12/25 thread

Leeds are an inform side at the moment and scoring goals but will be thinking of taking a point from us. We are still a good defensive side and need to score more. It will be a tight game with few chances as they often are over Christmas with a games coming thick and fast.
1-1 but, I am holding out for a win 2-1
They are all difficult but all winnable with this team. HTL.
 

This feels like one of those games where we lose and then think “typical Sunderland, hold form with the big lads and lose to a promoted side”

But I don’t think that’s us anymore.

2-0

All difficult games. This not so much as arsenal etc

Much harder game for them.
Playing away to a team 7th in tne Premier league, whilst they are 16th.
 
Be tough but I think à very enjoyable game -looking forward to it .
Players need to grab their chances
Be another great atmosphere
HTLs

Yes nothing given. If you dont turn up you loose in this company. Think we turn up and we dont get beat but think we will win a close encounter must move hoarding in as close as permited Ampadu is a weapon with long throws.
 
Potential banana skin fixture. We are obviously low on numbers, and they are full of confidence. A point would not be a disaster.
Agreed.

I'm more apprehensive about tomorrow than I was for the mags. Hopefully we carry more of a goal threat and can get Brobbey on the ball more in their box. I can see him on the score sheet.
 
This will be a tough game and anyone expecting an easy win are living in a dream world. The crowd need to be on it like it was a derby match.
 
Brazilian giant in goal.
Big bastard back 3 of Bijol, Struijk, Rodon,
PL hardest midfield 3 of Ampadu, Gruev, Stach.
Scariest PL front two of DCL and Nmecha
Bogle and Gudmundsson bombing down the wings.

Scared Sunderland 0 Dirty Leeds 2
This the giant the fans don’t rate?

Leeds have hit form, but it’s primarily at home. Away from home they’re nowhere near as strong, albeit gave City a game.

It’ll be tight, but I fancy us to nick another close one.

What's the view of the 'freindliness' of the visiting fans expected tomorrow? I know most will be LT season ticket holders.....but what chances some come through with no tickets (plan to watch in pub etc).

How will the police manage this.....trains in from Newcastle i guess.....will they make them exit at St Peters and walk them.up? Or let them wander free?

Hoping no bother as will be with elderly dad and younger daughter for this one. Memories of about 2015? When it kicked off outside the wheatsheaf after the FA cup game with them. Plenty people ended up unintentionally in the middle.

I'd usually say there'll be no bother, but always be wary of Leeds fans.
 
The thing is their style that’s won them points in this run of form plays right into our hands. They’ve went more direct which fucks with fancy dan established clubs that like to play more. If they start banging balls into the box to their striker we’ve got some of the most physical good in the air centre backs in the league. We will miss sadikis engine in there without a doubt against the three they seem to play in there. It’ll be a old school type game which we have a team now that stands up to that and actually enjoys that, the last time especially at their place we didn’t and were too young and naive.
