Interesting that Bamford sits while having shown he can go the full 90, but Ayling starts after playing only 45.

Also Rodrigo on the bench.

We'll see Bamford in the second half, I think, especially if we need a goal,

Spearhead of our attack looks a little blunt, maybe it's been sharpened in the week.

No Toney for Brentford. I thought he pulled up the other night and wished the worst for him. That is great news for us.

Just over an hour away from Leeds now. A victory would give us a cushion of 8 points from the bottom three, may take us upto 11th position pending on the other results.
Just back from walking houndie, hope you have a fantastic afternoon Leon. Bring us home the three points :)

They lost to Burnley & Norwich , drew against Newcastle conceding 8 goals in all. We should be beating these !

Agree on that, anything but 3 points is unacceptable

That canos usually plays well against us. Toney out through Covid, although he didn't know he had it until he was tested. I am concerned about Firpo, and lets see how Roberts gets on. The midfield looks strong, maybe still lacking in creativity, lets hope Dallas can muster something up. He got a goal in him aswell Stuart. Come on the boys.

Midfield is devoid of creativity again.

Dallas and Forshaw have played over 300 games for us and have 20 assists between them.

Cooper hobbling off with what appears to be a hamstring issue. Looks bad

Harrison on

Odd substitution. We now have three wingers

Logical change was Cresswell.

MB's lack of faith in the youth team annoys me
