barneyrubble Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 Think it will be a great game today ,super fast wet pitch two teams prepared to have a go and both want the 3 points. Depends on whether we turn up for the full 90 as to the result. Can't afford to start slow and give them 1 or 2 goal start. Even if we're not playing great important not to concede early. Leeds definitely beatable if we go for it really fancy us winning 2 1 . Thoughts on starting line up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickle Rick Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 Starting line up shouldn’t change much. I’d really like a win but we’re 18th in the league on home form, so a draw more likely than a win for me. And I predict Leeds fans kicking off in all three home stands and a fiasco about it later on the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matty Taylor will be lucky if he plays for us again. He’s right down the pecking order and rightly so. He’s a striker that doesn’t score goals.

pongo88 Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 Interesting facts: On true-false tests, ‘true’ answers are more common. On multiple choice tests with four answers, the second one – b – is more often correct. Therefore answer the following questions: 1) City will win today: True? False? 2) The result today will be - (a) Leeds win. (B) City win. (c) Draw. (d) Match abandoned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Globe Trotter Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 I predict a bright, optimistic start before getting carried away and it all ending with poor decisions, tears and regret. Not sure about the footy though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exAtyeoMax Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 My old mum said City will score 4 goals but the score will be 4-2. Two of those goals will be disputed. She didn’t mention any sending offs. Who knows! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edge1981 Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 I was just reading the Opta Stats. Everything pointing to a Leeds win today... We have won only once against Leeds in the last 13 league games and have lost 10 of those. Leeds won 4 at Ashton Gate, lost 1, drawn 1. Since 2010 we have lost more games against Leeds than any other opponent. Leeds have dropped less points from winning positions than any other team in the division, whilst also winning the most points than any other when trailing away from home. Unfortunately, I’m going for a easy Leeds win 3-0. I hope I’m wrong (I usually am) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledRobin Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 They're likely to come at us, which could be to our advantage. First goal's important. If we get it I fancy us 2-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offside Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 I’m not feeling particularly optimistic today, mainly because our record against Leeds is pretty bad (as @Edge1981has already illustrated). Performance-wise, I hope we don’t fall in the habit today (like we did in the first half against Brum) of being too static and slow with the ball because that would play right into their hands. With a big crowd it would be good to see an energetic and creative City performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chinapig Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 We tend to be slow out of the traps at home. If that happens again against Leeds' energetic game we could be in trouble. I'd certainly settle for a draw right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much going on with his contract shenanigans and the fact he’s not doing his job to LJs satisfaction. Nor Kelly. Dasilva has the LB shirt. Back four - Dasilva, Webster,Kalas, Hunt/Pisano. Midfield - Pack, Brownhill, Paterson, Eliasson Up top - Famara, Taylor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
