Mackday Meldrew - Leeds United FC


Seen Leeds a few times this season and if you play an open game, giving their front 4 space, then you are asking for trouble. Dodds changed the shape and starved their attackers of the oxygen of space.

Was slightly worried at 60 minutes as I thought our intensity dropped but that only lasted a couple of minutes - was amazed they could maintain their levels for the full 90 especially after the WBA game only three days earlier.
Same here. I was willing Dodds to make a couple of subs at that point, but couldn't work out in my head who to bring off, as they were all playing so well they just looked like they needed an injection of injury. (Ba had just been replaced by Roberts).

I'd have given Dan Neil an 8 as well.
 
You are right. But had he not delayed their lad he might have scored?

It was a key moment in the game - in the event it's hard not to say Clarke got it spot on.

I thought Clarke did just enough to stop their lad from racing away without committing an obvious foul.
