    Meslier, Koch, Bamford, Rodrigo, Harrison all had great games and chuffed about Koch and Rodrigo as he looked sharp as hell. Paddy not allowing him to have a go at No9 yet

    Great win, 6 points from 9. Passing could have been better today, Hernandez is missed. Please go get De Paul

    Why did rodrigo get subbed late on?

    Have to say as a Barndoor knocker he is on fire so far. Long may it continue. Excellent result and living up to my expectation of 2 wins from first 4 games. Hard to see us getting anyhting from Man ****ty but who knows at this rate.

    No, you were right. Bamford just said it came off his nose.

    Just think it was tactical, Alioski knows the system better on how to close the game down.

    not sure what you look like emu but my nose is part of my head ;)

    commentary team were complementing his placement, but it was pretty obvious he didn’t quite get it. Who cares!

    Apparently they only have 13 fit players and no strikers. It could be a good time to play them.
    I thought Rodrigo was good today, he's finding spaces around the box. I just wish he'd have a crack now and then rather than pass. Poveda is the other extreme, nice build up but poor shooting.
    Great result!

    Afternoon all

    Dallas is a prem player in his own right, never thought I would say that, but he's been great last 18 months.

    Must have been that, thought the lad did very good today, Rodrigo and Koch looked the players we expected today, and although he's still gready Poveda will scare teams coming on late.

    Great win, they set up to cancel us out I’m well chuffed with the three points and clean sheet. We can just enjoy ourselves against Man City now

    Might be part of your head, but you don't want to be heading many balls with it.

    Meslier - 9. Couple of worldies. Positioning very good. Clever game management at the end. Good distribution. Best game for us and only 20!

    Dallas - 7. Looked uncomfortable when pushed in to the middle and chased shadows a couple of times. In saying that, he had a hand in a lot of the good things that Leeds did today. Looks better out wide.

    Cooper - 6. Did everything asked of him. Solid and dependable. Could have done better with a half chance from a corner first half.

    Koch - 7. Put the mistakes behind him and looked a solid replacement for Ben White. He was never dominated physically and made sound decisions throughout. Good range of passing too.

    Ayling - 7. Took chances in possession. Sometimes worked, sometimes lost it and left us vulnerable. Couple of shots. Looks ok at this level.

    Phillips - 7. Passed it well. Broke things up. Covered where needed off the ball. It's what we now expect from the Yorkshire Pirlo.

    Klich - 7. Tireless. Clever movement. Clever passing. Niggling and constantly on Sheff Utds case. Player of the season so far?

    Roberts - 4. Never looked to impact the game. Was slow off the ball, was slow on the ball. Didn't create anything, didn't defend anything. The lads a striker, not a midfielder.

    Harrison - 8. Worked his socks off defensively. Made the wrong decision early on to pull the ball back but redeemed himself putting the ball on Bamfords head a couple of times. Need this every week Jack.

    Costa - 6. Showed flashes of his capabilities but fell short of the high standards he has set himself in the first two games. Didn't do alot wrong but didn't really cause too many problems either.

    Bamford - 7. Notched again. Closed down as we know he can. Another impressive showing. Long may it continue. Admitted himself that he should have scored first half. Good to see.

    Subs -

    Rodrigo - 7. Showed why we paid the money. Looked a real player in his cameo. Very promising. Looked a bit peeved when he got took off again.

    Poveda - 6. Worked himself plenty of space. Showed good skill. Made the keeper work. Looked lightweight though against a physical defence.

    Alioski - 6. Only couple of minutes. Helped to see the game out.
