Match Day Thread Leeds Utd v Rotherham Utd

Simon I have sent you a message but I don.t know if I've sent it to myself would you acknowledge? thanks.

 

I'm not saying it will continue but at the moment Bielsa is out coaching, out thinking and out tacticaling (no such word but can't think of any other one so made it up), every manager he's come up against. They have seen nothing like this - Bielsa press conference - you want my team, no problem, here it is and it will beat you, oh and for good measure we're going to attack the **** out of you until you just give up. AND I've talked Emma into showing the team her tits at half time so they're even more fired up for the 2nd half. Of course I'm in my local and could be pissed. Enjoyed the scum result to boot. If Carlsberg did weekends....

 

We will loose a game eventually . It will be interesting to see how we handle that .

 

Your right fella,lets see what happens when we go behind,and or lose

 

You'll probably have Christmas dinner and celebrate your return to normal.

 

You can have yours in germany as usual.
Nice to see yous coming out after a win.

Thats the stat I was looking for, how the hell does he come under criticism this season especially. Absolute lynch pin

 

There is a clip on social media, All Leeds aren’t we page, against Rotherham, it was praising our general play. Ayling was playing the ball out from the back, little triangle involving Phillips on the right touchline. As soon as the ball had been passed by Phillips he was moving into space to create the next triangle, the ball was being flicked on, passed to feet by all as it made its way over to the left touch line in Rotherham’s half and who was there available for the triangle again but Phillips.

Wish I could copy it on here, the play by all was fantastic but stop watching the ball and watch Phillips movement it was better than good.

 

I think you're getting me mixed up with Berlin-Lion, Est. And it's nice to see you, too.

 

99 passes! According to Phil Hay the whole team between them just fell short of 650 in that match!

To put this in perspective, last season we had 16983 passes for the whole of the Championhip - that's 369 per match!

Passes going up each game,just under 400 stoke around 440 Derby and Nearly 650 Rotherham,accuracy up too,73% first 2 games,83% Rotherham.Interesting.

 

Pretty sure there must be a correlation between possession & passes. Basically, can't pass the ball if you don't have it! As Rotherham were mostly interested in stopping us play, rather than play themselves, we ended up with about 75% possession. That's a lot of time to pass the ball about.

 

... and the accuracy is better due to the amount of sideways passes you end up having to make.

 

Walt, I am really sorry, I have only just seen this. Yes, I have your PM thank you and will respond shortly.
