Leeds Utd 4-3 Bournemouth. UNCUT VERSION. You'll feel you were there.

[Ellandback1]

Saturday 5th November 3:00pm | Elland Road


Bournemouth make the 500 mile round trip to Elland Road on Saturday against a Leeds team, rising in confidence following their win at Anfield last weekend. Jesse Marsch will be keen to put distance between the Whites, and the bottom three, in what will be their penultimate match before the World Cup kicks off on November 20th.

Bournemouth will be without key players Lloyd Kelly and Neto. Kelly has had a persistent ankle injury which has continued to keep him sidelined since mid-September, whilst shot stopper Neto (a Summer freebee from Barcelona) has picked up a hamstring injury. Mark Travers will deputise between the sticks for the Cherries, but his recent form has been terrible. In the six games he has played in, this season, he has conceded 20.





Stuart Dallas, Adam Forshaw, Archie Gray and Leo Hjelde continue to be ruled out for Leeds whilst there are doubts regarding Liam Cooper, Tyler Adams and Rodrigo, we’re are all carrying knocks but will make an unchanged starting eleven. Luis Sinisterra's ankle sprain will keep him out until after the World Cup. There is No Patrick Bamford on the bench, he has picked up a small knock, Mateo Joseph takes his place.

Sinsiterra ruled out today. That means probably same starting 11 as Liverpool. Good opportunity for Summerville. Gnonto too as he's our only other wide player in the squad.

Hopefully Rodrigo and Adams are fine. Adams looks like he might need a rest - not surprising given the energy he puts out. Rodrigo has to be our starting 9 until Bamford proves otherwise.

Have to get 3 points. Time to start showing that we're better than the rest of the premier league shite

I think so too. Exactly same as Liverpool. I think it was Fripo on the bench instead of Gyabi. Look forward to seeing Gyabi but Greenwood and Klich have that area covered.

Yes, Faaip's starting XI is the obvious one, and probably the most logical. Would like to see us play with some width for Harrison in particular who plays better like that. Moore will be a handful for our CBs as he's a big lad and we struggle with those kind of forwards.

Really need the win to give us a platform going into the Spurs game which in all likelihood will be a difficult game to get anything from (though we have performed better against the top teams, and Son won't be available to torment us). But back to the Cherries, they seem to score relatively well but are suspect at the back, not unlike us. Interesting game for sure.

Bournemouth are awful. It should be the easiest game of the season. And give the club some breathing space in midtable before Spurs away, the break, City at home etc.

Whoscored

Jack on the left this season, a very good 7.19 rating
Jack on the right this season, a poor 5.96 rating

If played wholly on the left he'd be up there with the likes of Joelinton, Grealish, Toney .... playing on the right has definitely affected his form

Yes definitely needs to be left or left-out. Given Sinisterra is injured for the foreseeable, Harrison to start on the left, replaced with Willy if required.

Sssshhhh. Don’t mocker it.

[Chilli D]

Keifer Moore is a big unit and very good in the air so hopefully Koch will keep him quiet.
If we play well, we win this one I think.

[Cjay]

Chilli makes a good point.

Keifer Moore is a bit unit and Dominic Solanke isn't small either and is quite quick to.

Bournemouth will Undoubtedly look to bypass the press by either hoofing long to Moore to flick on or hold up and play off him.

Or lob the ball into the vacant spaces where our full backs should be and give Solanke something to chase which vs Cooper would be a mismatch.

Important we take this into account because both Palace and Everton did similar and it worked.

[BGwhite]

This definitely isn't a gimme! I have a feeling like the Wigan at home game in MB's first season.... should win it, capable of winning it...but a balls-up is just around the corner.

2 circumstances where they can hurt us.
1/ Set piece if we switch off with marking responsibilities. These need to be concrete or we could see Moore profit as per Milosevic for Fulham
2/ low block and long balls into the channels as CJAY alluded to when the fullbacks have pushed up.


If they score first it will be a long afternoon. If we get our noses in front they will have to come out which should give us better options. We really struggle against a low block from what I have seen because of poor execution and decision making in possession. Corners and Any free kicks near the 18 yard box need better quality than we have witnessed so far. Harrison’s delivery’s have been woeful of late. He needs to step up and replicate what he must be doing on the training pitch - as he appears to have the set piece responsibility more often than not.

[Chilli D]

Philip Billing is a weird looking so and so and has the skinniest legs I've ever seen on a pro footballer but he has got hell of a shot on him.

[1964white]

Harrison has to start as there is no realistic alternative.

There are no excuses for some of his poor decisions/wrong options, shooting, holding onto the ball too long, etc whether he's plays on the right or left. Jack has always been the same, his middle name is 'inconsistent'

Sporting Life prediction.
As if we didn’t know the problem already.
They’re games tend to be tight. 1 goal difference in 88% of O’Neils games in charge.

[Jaydog]

Good home advantage stat.

Sporting Life prediction.

There's some truth to that but why would you take gambling advice from a site that doesn't know how to count? If you exclude Chelsea, Arsenal, and Liverpool, it's 6 points in 9 games, not 6 points in 12.

(BTW... don't get me started about the game in hand and how everyone ignores that "15th" could reasonably be anything from 11th to 15th depending on the value of the GIH.)

Nice to have a couple of 3pm KOs to enjoy.
