    Good Morning Everyone

    If ever Leeds metal was going to be tested, its going to be this one as Leeds make the 117 mile trip down to the Molineux Stadium on Wednesday evening.

    TC has some tough decisions to make.

    Should he rest or play our man of the match Hernandez?

    Should Anita replace Berardi?

    What about bringing O'Kane back to the starting line up?

    Should Ekuban start

    Lasogga or Roofe?

    Evening all and 60, wet today in the sunny state so a good day.

    Go with the team from Sunday I think, they did OK. Have options on the bench to change the formation if needed. That would be my choice but I could well imagine going defensive and playing for a 0-0

    Looks like the new set piece coach is earning his wages as we had a different look, shape and feel about things on Sunday. Pontus was back to being Pontus and thats a huge difference at the back.

    Roofe contributed well but he aint a striker so Lassoga goes back in if he's over the illness and I expect Roofe to be 3rd choice now Ekuban is back. The only change I would make is O'Kane for Phillips or as we need to stop Bonatini getting the ball how about Viera, Phillips & O'Kane leaving out Pablo, but for that to work Alioski needs another top performance along with Saiz

    Morning all. Thought the general consensus was Hernandez cant do two games in a week. One thing we learned from Sunday, is everyone needs to be firing in the team. When they do, they are good. No room for passengers in this league so Id leave him off

    I think Ekuban should start along with Viera. Their pace will hopefully allow an early goal and put pressure on to get the team going

    Eire I understand what you are saying about Pablo but... I would start him I'm beginning to believe in this continuity thing

    Good Morni9ng to Matt and Eric and co from a very dull and damp Bardsey.We know winter is coming that was our last brown bin collection until end of Feb
    Berradi will retain his place Hernandez will be replaced with Dallas otherwise no change .We beat them at Molineux last season so why spois a good thing
    Talking of Molineux reminds me of our defeat there which stopped us winning the double Yorath played at centre forward we didn't have sufficient back upand the referee Gow played about 15 minutes extra time
    Before the game the Sunday papers were saying that Revie through Mike Ogrady had offered the Wolves team a bribe to lose .In the first minute Bernard Shaw punched a ball for a corner the referee ignored it! and so we lost 2-1 and Derby and Clough celebrated in Mallorca

    Good Morning all - I would send out the same team that started against Boro myself. I thought the substitutions were strange on Sunday, personally I would have taken Hernandez off with 15-20 minutes to go to rest him ready for today, leaving him on for the full 90 suggests it was a plan not to play him tomorrow, we shall see.

    Personally, I wouldn't even have Lasogga on the bench, Roofe had great movement and it was this movement that helped the attacking three play so well, he was pulling defenders all over the place. We had great shape on Sunday so why change it if we don't have to?

    If Hernandez is left out then I would replace him with Roofe and play Ekuban, I still find it strange some supporters are watching a different Phillips to the one I am seeing? Is it because he looks lazy off the ball? On Sunday he was immense, breaking up play, marking Howson out the game and even setting up a goal, I'm not sure what else people expect from him??

    Morning chipster and everyone.the rain has stopped for now lets hope thats it for now.
    As for our line up we need to go more solid for wolfies game.dallas would be ideal and pablo on the bench.why drop roofe we have been crying out for movement from lassoga.put der bomber on the bench too.play three in front of back four.alioski and dallas to track back and cut off the flanks.play cagey and frustrate them and hope donnie lonergan chooses the right gloves.whats with his kicking been at it years and still rubbish according to reports.

    Whatever team plays, we need a change in midfield, Boro had 57% of possession, Wolves may well take advantage of the space we leave in midfield.

    2-1 to Leeds.

    With respects Ristac, but do you really think Phillips was setting it up for Pablo, or trying a header?

    I thought Philips was setting it up for someone. Obviously couldnt have known who, if anyone was ghosting in to finish it. Great flickon I thought
