    Am I just very ignorant of the Leeds squad or does it look quite different to the one we played in the play-offs? A lot of player turnover with them too?

    They had banked on an immediate return to the EPL and had to sell the likes of Summerville and Rutter and reduce the wage bill when it didn't happen. Those unfamiliar names are the result.

    17 year old Elliot Myles makes the bench again. :emoticon-0148-yes: I hope he gets some minutes today.

    Archie Gray also a big sale from their team.

    Mind you we have certainly made our fair share

    I don’t want to talk an error up, but as we wait for this penalty - a shout out to Cordoba: his defending a couple of times has been outstanding imo and he has really settled well.

    Josh needed a goal. That'll do!

    Sainz a lucky boy - that was more of a yellow than many of the nonsense cards waved around

    The Mayor took a nasty knock.
    He looks OK though

    Slimani looking good; as if he's been playing all along.

    Best half of football I’ve seen is play in a long time - both going forward and defensively. Just need to improve some decision making in the final third and then it would have been almost perfect.

    FFS if we lose Cordoba

    The commentator talked it up with mentioning that we’d had a settled squad. I can’t remember the last time we went half a season with barely a change in centre back

    Agreed if anything he’s been slightly let down, there were three occasions (I think) where if his teammates’ passes had been a fraction better he would have been clean through

    That looked like a dive by Gnonto.
