Burnley vs Leeds match thread

My main concern is will SG bring back Lees or stay as we were at the back with OB and Kissa. Hopefully he'll bring back Lees.

 

Nah i reckon he'll bring back Lees. Does anyone else feel these 2 weeks have taken a lifetime, its ridiculous these constant international breaks

 

Lees back and the break would have probably done a few players good, we haven't the largest of squads and another 14 days nearer to Lonergan regaining fitness

 

McCormack might have been revitalised by the break as well, so hopefully he'll be knockin em in for fun again. Since he stopped scoring, so has Ricky Lambert! How peculiar

 

Interesting that Lambert has also stopped scoring. Just goes to show, all strikers go through dry patches.

Interesting dilema on who plays CB. I have a sneaking suspician SG will keep AOB & Kisnorbo as the pairing. They did well against Leicester. This is a game we should expect to win & win well. Not sure they have the strongest attack. So keeping the same pairing makes some sense.

 

i actually think that SG may even go with

Lees - Kissa - O'Brien - White

as the back line but i'd much prefer the one i said earlier in the thread

 

Interesting idea Josh. But I think I prefer Lees as a CB with Connolly being the natural RB. It also seems to help Snoddy. We'll see. Really don't care who plays as long as we win.

 

Just beat the ****as,job done

 

Newcastle have fielded the same back five for all 11 PL games this season & no side in the country has conceded fewer goals,we should just leave the defence as it is- consistency is the key.
1-0 Leeds win.

 

Until lonergan got injured, the defence was getting some consistency. That was a big disruption because he helped organise. I would say that mcarthy deserves a shot at organising o'dea and lees. Would stick with pugh on the left because white needs his help. We still conceed most of our goals from attacks on our left flank.

 

I dont think O'Dear deserves to be anywhere near the leeds team again (I say again, hes never deserved to be anywhere near the leeds team)

 

3-1 us! Snoddy, Super Rossi and Beccs!

 

Wouldnt have put him with kissa. There is another goal conceded from our left. Way too easy

 

1-0 already

 

oh boy Jay Rodrguez 1-0

 

this ref is apalling...

 

The ref is good come on burnley make it 2-0 before half time

 

thanks to good old bates weve put the gaffer under pressure and now the boys will be nervous and its clearly showing as we look ****ing ****! We should be at least 3-0 down

 

Fecking woeful first half by Leeds, we look uninterested and there is no way we will even get a draw from this game, unless there's a 100% more effort. Keogh needs to either get involved or come off. O'Dea (**** off and get a job at something you can actually do) and Kisnorbo, poor, third rate and slow.
