So maybe you should be a bit more calm and rational too? True, but I find it easier to read / write about positive situations and optimism, rather than trudge through despair and doom, mixed with the occasional outpouring of hatred towards LJ.

JBFC II Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 As long as we put in 100% and give them a good game I'd be alright. I'm sure I'm not the only person who doesn't want to travel for 8 hours and spend 50 quid to see us get hammered... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah agreed- WBA's attack is lethal as you say. We could have been 2 up early on- Leeds didn't have so much in terms of dominance in that sense but had about 70% possession I believe- maybe an idea to cede the ball a bit then press hard in the right areas looking for quick turnovers. Personally, looking at it all I'd predict a defeat but performance which indicates a reaction post Preston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidered abroad Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 4 hours ago, Mr Popodopolous said: 8 points from 6 games is about moderate tbh, midtable type form. West Brom was a game where they had lot of ball but got hit on break consistently- a lesson maybe for Saturday. As for Saturday, I certainly don't see us winning- draw maybe if we play well. We only have 8 from last 30 available! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you were. I was stating how poor our 8/30 is against their 8/18. Their last six games are 2W 2D 2L. Our last six 2W 0D 4L. So they lost 4-1 at WBA. Seem to remember we lost 4-2 there.

Our form is certainly worse. I think we'll lose too, but hopefully we'll make Leeds really earn it if we do- I am not sure quite why the optimism of some for this weekend because they got a bit of a thumping away to a side with a very sharp attack/counter attack.

If we don’t get a reaction then there’s something seriously wrong, I’m not saying we need to win up there but we have to show a lot more than we did against Preston, lj needs to prove he’s actually done something in the last 2 weeks of training.

He probably has done something, problem being Leeds may have as well and they may want all the points in front of a full house. Quite happy if we turn up and give it a go i.e have a few shots on target, compete for everything and play simple football ...pass to a player on your side oh and LJ please don't mention the players back from international duty and how that affected our game.

SR1 Posted November 22, 2018 Report Share Posted November 22, 2018 Well, if ever there was a time to play us this is it. Jansson out One keeper injured and gone back to Chelsea, other keeper injured and out. No idea who else we have. Berardi and Ayling long term injuries. So basically our defence is ripped apart. Only Cooper and Douglas left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it is with this in mind, I say don't get the knives out again for the team or LJ if this does happen. This will be a bloody battle of a game, and if we lose, we should take it on the chin and get ready for Ipswich. What are the chances of calm, rationale thoughts on the back of a defeat at Elland Road? I only ask, as I'll no doubt want to read this forum over the weekend, and don't want to wade through all the doom and gloom again! Anyway, here's hoping you can ignore my words and City grab a classic win, or at least bring back a point. I've no problem with this Leeds are a strong, well organised team and we played well. We'll also watch it back afterwards and in training work on the areas where we fell short. You've got to remember it's a really strong league this. Things will be positive because we learn from our failings and always believe. We'll keep doing the same things and performances will get better...
