In fat they are good questions and ones I have asked myself....... :shock:
What sort of reply did you get ? Zilch or abuse ?

Not hard are they, especially for a so called self imposed 'prophet' on all things footy.

Sinisterra or Gnonto in preference to James.

Any disadvantage Sini or Willi ( if there is any) might have in defending over James is amply compensated by their far superior attacking skills. Not even close.

It was posted elsewhere as in the Player ratings thread.. Not difficult to find as it hovers around the top half page after the match and a bit beyond ..

Insofar as my answering you when I'd already posted would be running round for you...yes. Not to mention you probably did more running round to quote my reply than you would have clicking on the match ratings thread and scrolling down 2/3 posts, I'm usually first or second as I keep a running total in game

Ipswich fan here. Very exciting game, although not an advert for defending! It was a good contest and a one goal Leeds victory was the correct outcome on balance.

I watched the Cardiff and West Brom games and thought Leeds looked very vulnerable to attacks in wide areas, which is probably why Wes Burns was our most advanced player and Kayden Jackson had some joy there too. The Leeds attack was something else though.

Do you think Gnonto and Sinisterra will both be at the club next week? Sinisterra seems tailor-made for that Emi Buendia role in a Farke system so to me he seems like the one to keep at all costs. If all four stay in place I can see the problems defending out wide continuing because the full backs will be even more exposed, but there's more than enough quality in attack to turn games into basketball matches and come out on the right side of most of them. Farke's first title winning team at Norwich was built in that mould.

As for the season as a whole, I predicted mid-table for us back in July and I haven't wavered from that. There will be a couple of unexpected teams in the top six and we could be one of them with a bit of luck but that's also true of about ten others. We've got continuity and a great young coach in our positives column but I worry a bit about our lack of depth in certain positions. Goalkeeper being one of those; Hladky has stepped up well since coming in but was responsible for two of the goals yesterday.

If Farke gets things gelled together quickly, Leeds will be a scary proposition. With a better squad, the transition period will be much shorter than it was with them lot up the road and it's a very open league this season so I reckon he'll make up the gap to the top six fairly quickly. Even if he doesn't, the games will be fun to watch.

See you in December.

Superior attacking skills they have, no argument here but there's no denying we got over run in midfield at times yesterday, hence the reason they had 13 shots on target to our 7, and I'm sure DF will look at that. I don't think it's a foregone conclusion that Dan James won't start next week if he's fit.

Farke said afterwards he wanted a confidence building win and he went for it knowing our firepower would be enough.
The flip side is you lose out defensively sometimes.
There will be games where it doesn’t work but they should be few and far between because he will revert to possession based attacking once everyone is bedded in and knows their role.
Said several times across the match thread. Could have used a 10 who is more adept at tracking back. More of an attacking mid. And Farke probably wants that kind of player in his squad.

But it sounds like he likes the option of being able to put out a front 4 like he did yesterday. He probably wants the option to do both depending on the opposition and situation.

Great comrade from Alex with the both sets of fans before the game, the Ipswich family says it all about Leeds & our fans in the final two minutes of the video clip.


Loved watching that 64, thanks for posting it. Fair play to that family at the end, they gave Leeds and the fans great praise. They were adamant that we will go straight back up with our forward line but will we still have it by next weekend?

Greenwood tracks back, is he injured?
