Leeds United v Chelsea Match Thread

[White Riot]

Gary O'Neill...

Back in a few weeks

[Finnatic]

Ampadu has been immense this half.

[SG90]

2-0 HT

[BlackHillsPaul]

That's a brilliant half of football from Leeds!!!

[Lumiukko]

Isn't that Tanaka and Nmecha's job in this system?

Yes, just hasn't been happening quite well. Perhaps still not completely familiar with the new formation.

[Clitheroe White]

A back three look good. Bijol in the middle looks solid, also some nice progressive moves from him.

[Cjay]

Play to the strengths of the squad and put your ego aside weirdly makes a team better.

Just don't go ultra cautious 2nd half.

Back 3 solid

Stach and Gudmundsson immense

[Carrick Dave]

Is it just me or does Marathe look completely fecked off that we’re winning?

[The Subhuman]

Hopefully we can get the next, ths division, two up is never won

[Tyzy]

Well,I wasn't expecting that,come on Leeds

[ElKapitan]

Well we've won the first half..... Great strike from Tanaka and excellent awareness from Nmecha to steal that ball/Bogle with that deft pass for the 2nd.

Bijol has been really good.... Second balls centrally.

Wish we had a couple of really good sub's to bring on second half and hope we don't try to defend deep second half.... Need a 0-0 mentality to get something from this IMO.

[Chilli D]

I expect Cole Palmer will be on very soon for them.
Great first half, we looked comfortable for the most part.
Now can we get the job done?

[Finnatic]

A back three look good. Bijol in the middle looks solid, also some nice progressive moves from him.

Think the goal has helped and Chelsea still only playing one up but yes, he seems to be comfortable in this set up.

[Lumiukko]

Agreed that Stach and Guds have been brilliant, especially Guds. But everyone has put in a lot of hard work. Second goal came at a great time.

[Carrick Dave]

Whatever happens second half, that attitude makes us proud to be Leeds.

Go on lads.

[CHAPELALLMAN]

A back three look good. Bijol in the middle looks solid, also some nice progressive moves from him.

Some were saying several matches ago that to get the best out of Bijol he needs to play with two other CBs alongside him.

It's a matter of working with formations which maximise player's strengths.

[pandagirl]

please dont blow this
if this goes to a 2-2 or something it will be like a loss!
im not buying the whole bad luck thing anymore
we win or we dont, no more feeling sorry for ourselves

we need the 3 points

LETS DO THIS!

[Jaydog]

Classic 3rd goal game.
Points for those that said Stach is better without Longstaff. He is.

Lol i just noticed we all have out pets as avatars

[whiteswan]

I said last night watching Fulham score some corkers by just whacking it that I wish our players would just lash it....brilliant from Tanaka.
Loving the goalie long kicks as well, Chelsea aren't used to that. I just hope we can hold on.
