please log in to view this image Millwall v Leeds Utd Saturday 15th September@3pm Streaming links to follow Hi Folks, The International break is finally over, and we can look forward to a trip to Bermondey, South London where the streets are paved with er..... tarmac as Millwall welcome the Mighty Whites to the New Den. Alioski, Jansson, Peacock Farrell, Roberts and Dallas have all returned injury free from their respective national duty and are available for selection should Bielsa see fit. Bielsa may throw caution to the wind and rest Berardi who picked up a knock in training. Surely Jansson will be recalled to partner Cooper at the heart of the defence. For the first time this season Adam Forshaw is available for selection following ankle ligament damage picked up during pre-season training. It's not such good news for Patrick Bamford. The 7m signing from Boro has been ruled out for the rest of the year with a knee injury he picked up during Uniteds 5-0 obliteration of Bristol City for the under 23's. There's no love lost between the two teams. It was this fixture this time last season that led to Leeds dramatic decline. Leeds were bullied off the ball at every opportunity and never got started. Bielsa will be desperate to make sure the same does not happen again. Tom Elliott and Steve Morison will both have a point to prove against their former club.
Personally speaking I’ve missed Mighty and TC. One of the most humorous posters on here and TC. Just hope they don’t feel the need to come back for five months, there will only be one reason why they don’t, come on the Leeds
Id happily take a draw from this one and pick up no other injuries. It's always a bit of a banana skin
The first twenty minutes will determine which way the game will swing. Millwall will be desperate to get back to winning ways after three piss poor games and Leeds know that if they give us a yard we’ll take a mile. Looking forward to this one and think if Millwall get a early goal they’ll win comfortably
You may have had some poor games but those records go out of the window when Leeds roll into town. Every team including you raise their games when they play us. Last year I thought if we could get to half time and make the changes we’d be fine. Christiansen did indeed make his subs but not the players I’d have brought on. We needed to shore our midfield up which we didn’t do. This meant you continued where you left off at the end of the first half. I am never over confident but this time things will be different with Bielsa as I’m sure he’ll have read my match report too lol!
2 reasons we need to win this one To dispel the myth that we have bogey teams and Milwall always hurt us. To shut that loudmouthfuck Morison up
Seems two players are up for it already going by last night's Poland v Rep of Ireland result, Klich(Leeds) and O'Brien(Millwall) getting the goals.
Hopefully he gets clattered in the penalty area by Jansson, who again fails to cope with the pressure cooker atmosphere at the Den.
It’s a tricky one. Millwall win and we get mighty back on here for some banter. Leeds win and we won’t hear from him for months. So let me ponder here for a minute. Mighty always seemed like a good guy... .... I enjoyed a bit of banter with him ... he could be genuinely amusing at times ... the board benefits from the diversity of the presence of our Millwall brethren. So... Fcuk him. Come on Leeds.
As for the game. Millwall have shot themselves in the foot but have been competitive against everyone. Harris has got the team to be greater than the sum of the parts, probably manager of the year for me last year. Last year they beat what will be largely the same players 1-0, but to be honest it was an absolute roasting and hugely flattered us. So for me this is the acid test of bielsa ball in the championship. Our first away game of many against a typical blood and thunder British side who will be well up for it. Last year we capitulated pretty much every time in these circumstances. This year we look made of sterner stuff, and we will get chances on the break, where we look more adept than we do trying to break teams down. Have no idea how this one pans out.
