Match Day Thread Leeds United vs West Ham United

[Easternwhite]

West Ham are appalling at the back and in the center, need to capitalise on that. Like the new keepers long ball accuracy.
We need to block more, we intercept well but always seem to back off when they're driving at us.

We also look dangerous when they come at us, although its still heart in the mouth.

It will be Farkes way to shut up shop now, bit I think we need another one because if they score it will be a nervous finish

 

[NostradEmus]

I'd take Bowen, Jimmy, Paqueta, Diouf and Fernandes.

Leeds 2-0 West Ham

Excuse me? We have 13 minutes added on?

The I.T. whizz probably thought there'll never be more than 9 mins injury time, so only catered for a single digit.

If we shut up shop then it's likely we concede at least one. Could end up 2-2 if we sit deep.

We look anything but solid at the back.

 

[NostradEmus]

Eh up. Harrison is on. We are going with a back 9 and DCL up top.

 

[stonkin]

Why do I feel like it's going to be a long second half?

How has Bijol played? Not seen him mentioned at all.

Hang on Farke made a sub before 70 mins

 

[Normanbitmyleg70]

He's got a mention....

Jarrod Bowen with the little one around the corner for Tomas Soucek but he's on his heels and tugs the shirt of Jaka Bijol.

 

[milkyboy]

I'd take Bowen, Jimmy, Paqueta, Diouf and Fernandes.

Good call, forgot about those two

 

[Gessa]

Tanaka's passing is way off tonight, can see Stach replacing him soon

Looks a little off the pace to me

 

[milkyboy]

yeh he’s not really made a case for himself tonight - we haven’t really played that well tbh

 

[Gessa]

We're letting them have too much of the ball

 

[esteponawhite]

Usually not a bad thing for a defender,just made a good tackle.

 

[2020VisionofLeeds]

I wonder when W Ham will score to give us all nervous breakdowns. Around 85 minutes is my prediction.

 

[milkyboy]

Problem we have with this line up now is no real threat on the counter, so they can just commit more men forward - this last 20 minutes is going to feel a long time

 

[Bysshe]

We're making heavy weather of this after such a good start. If they get one, the pressure on us will be enormous and they could easily get a second. Not sure what DCL is contributing as he's not getting shots away or holding up the ball. Time to bring Piroe on instead?

 

[Normanbitmyleg70]

Glad to hear it....Have to say that Leeds have defended very well in this second half. They've given West Ham absolutely nothing.
