The #LUFC Breakfast Debate (Monday 11th January)

Only yesterday morning the BBC MoTD team were banging on how Leeds Utd are everyones second fav team. Everyone loves the way we play the game.

this morning we are laughed at, abused by every TV pundit, detested again like when we had Bates as owner and Cellino’s madness is back.

Yes thats how fast the mood of the nation can turn and all because of that performance. F Bielsa had taken an experimental squad of fringe first teamers and U23s he would have won freinds and probably got a result. But he chose something which can only be described as nothing strange selections in strange positions with a bunch of strangers who it seemed had never met. Damage done now and can only be repaired by having some great performances for the next few games and picking up a bunch of points towards safety.

 

I'm worried that we'll miss Phillips against Brighton. Bielsa must think Struijk is capable at DM but we haven't seen the evidence of that in the first team yet. He looks much better at CB with Cooper which would mean we could also move Ayling to the right and Dallas to the left.

Based on what we've seen I think Shackleton or Klich might be a better choice for the one game that Phillips misses allowing us to actually play our defenders in their natural position.

Bielsa sees the players everyday in training though so i'll trust his judgement.

 

**** them all. Personally I hate this second team crap and being liked. FFS we're Leeds Utd. TBH it wasn't that big of a shock because we've been beaten by lower League teams in the past. As disappointing as it was, it's just a one off game. Let's go out and beat Brighton and enjoy the remaining games. Martin Keown is a twat and he was winding me up yesterday.

 

we had some current internationals out on the pitch, and a couple with older caps. does anybody think this was not sufficient to beat a lge 2 side, of course not but the desire,fight,system etc was not there so its a dual responsibility of players and coach
the substitutions where abysmal, harrison false 9, no way and the 2 kids where thrown to the sharks....fine if you are a couple of goals to the good but not at 0-0 and playing shyte.
and to pinch a quote from the late barbara windsor.....KIKO GET OUTTA MY ****IN CLUB.

Well looks like all 4 players we brought into the academy in the Summer ar top notch. Summerville played a blinder today and got a hat-trick. Cody Drameh was close behind him as a warrior RWB playing with a head wound, but also created a couple of goals. Stunning performance from him. Greenwood scored inside 10 minutes but was playing as a 10 again and subbed off early in the 2nd half after beinng d and w how good Gelhardt is who wasnt playing today. Match report in the sticky above and the pitch was also sticky and stopped the game flowing in the second half. The pitch also stopped Leeds scoring at least another 4 goals

Drameh and Summerville take a bow

 

Well now don't need to take long on that, he was exactly the same both rubbish, nay sorry all where rubbish.....if anyone is content with that display, they haven't seen much footy deserved what we got a drubbing I don't consider 3-0 to a league 2 side anything less....do you

 

That's what I thought too.

In your post you only criticised the named subs, including Harrison, & I (wrongly) took the inference by omission that you though Rodrigo was better. You certainly flabbered my gaster!

 

Cheer up we still have a few tricks up our sleeves
