Leeds United v Chelsea Match Thread

[SG90]

Forest beating Wolves

[The Subhuman]

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

Only me I think but thanks

[BlackHillsPaul]

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

I agree 100%

But Leeds have been SO predictable there is a certain shock factor at the minute. I wonder how long it will take for apposing Managers to adjust. My guess is pretty quickly...

[AcrossThePondAsh]

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

It’s what he played in Series A and the national team too

[Irish Ian]

Aaronson coming on for Pascal we are switching to a flat back 4.

[ElKapitan]

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

He's probably said to Brendan Rogers the jobs yours after tonights pants down performance..... Farke went into the tunnel giving a strange closed fist hand signal to the upper stand which is a weird coincidence...

[SG90]

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.

I wonder if Farke has been reading this forum Some of the "Football Manager experts" seem to get it

Don’t think we’ll have a say in how cautious we are, especially if Palmer comes on.

And don't forget subbing our best player for Harrison

And Stach came out firing from distance, the second of which lead to the corner from which Bijol scored

Surely a joke? .... Wouldn't put this past farke.... Its only took 15 games for him to listen to fans.

[Irish Ian]

Villa score 4 in a row after going 2 down.

Note the paralells

[whiteswan]

Lol i just noticed we all have out pets as avatars

I don't have a pet swan pandagirl but there are lots of swans on the river just down the road. Hector's avatar is my Basset Hound boy Zach the photo specially taken for heccy.

They may as you say.

And we certainly have been predictable and may have taken Chelsea by surprise and they will adapt and the better players may show in the end.

But it's been bloody obvious all season this squad wasn't built for a flat back 4 ploddy style imo.

[The Subhuman]

But Chelsea haven't turned up, Wolves played better. One move I think from Chelsea so far, that's looked quality.

[Irish Ian]

Well there are 36000 in his ear hole.

[The Subhuman]

I'd be happier with Gnonto on the pitch...

Cheery bugger.
