One change for Leeds - Greenwood replaces Klich, who is on the bench.

No Bamford in the squad. Tyler Roberts is among the substitutes.

Marsch starting a lineup designed to score goals. Good on him.

We can beat these guys.

That’s Tyler Roberts nailed on for a 70th minute sub, maybe today will be the day he finds hero status at Leeds!

well it looks like KP has the midfeild all to himself.

Football has undergone a process of bielsification; pressing and possessing, passing rather than dribbling, intercepting high up the field rather than making last-ditch tackles, are in vogue.

Marcelo Bielsa. The light that will never go out.

Whatever the case we look as if we will get overrun in midfield, which is poetic seeing it is how we began this season at Old Trafford when Robin Koch had the entire middle of the pitch to play with Pogba and Fernadez.

I prefer Greenwood to Klich. He has a goal in him and I have a feeling he will deliver from a set piece today. Klich has offered very little so I only see this as a potential improvement.

My biggest reservation is Firpo. He is my stuck record in terms of spouting off about his deficiencies / if we are on top he doesn’t look too bad and has a decent left peg outside ours and the opposition box.

But he is a red card waiting to happen. I believe he will be up against Mwembo today and he will cause him a lot of defensive issues if we are frequently stretched.

But it is always about ifs and buts.
