Re: Today's Football 20-12-20
We've no chance of getting James, what he wants is too play more, so his start today will encourage him too stay at OT.

This is a rout. You just can’t play attack attack attack against good sides.

Re: Today's Football 20-12-20
The thing is, even though Leeds drew with Man City, if City could have finished that day, they've have been 5-0 up at half time.
And then Palace battered Leeds 4-1, another team with quick, attacking pace.
Their defence simply cannot live with teams like this.

This could've been about 9-4 by now.
Neither side can defend well.

I actually feel a little gutted that it's 6-2 and not 6-1.

Cooper looks crocked. That would be a big miss for them against us.

Worry is that If Leeds score 2 goals next Sunday they'll likely win
Re: Today's Football 20-12-20
Watching Leeds one thing that is evident they don't give up regardless, they are relentless and we have a big game on this evidence, no plum duff from the boys on boxing Day thankyou

Clever move by Bielsa. Unfortunately.FactualFrank wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 5:38 pmInteresting... 46' Double substitution at the break. Klich and Phillips are replaced by Struijk and Shackleton.
The 2 players who were a yellow card from missing the game against us.

Re: Today's Football 20-12-20
We certainly can't employ our usual plan of sitting in and soaking attacks up. The game will be beyond us before we know it. We need to take them on. I actually fear for us to be honest. We won't do enough going forward or are adventurous enough to hurt them where they are weakest. Hope I am wrong.

Re: Today's Football 20-12-20
If Leeds play like this against us, we're going to find it very difficult, to say the least.
United are countering Leeds cavalier approach by better attacking of their own and blowing them away.
We don't really have the players to do that.

Re: Today's Football 20-12-20
We do have a much better defensive unit than them and they are weak at set-pieces, which we're strong at. Which is why I said, we need to defend well, press well and punish them on the freekicks and corners.Somethingfishy wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 6:10 pmWe certainly can't employ our usual plan of sitting in and soaking attacks up.

Re: Today's Football 20-12-20
That is my worry too. We need to be a lot more adventurous on the counter attack than we usually are.ElectroClaret wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 6:11 pmIf Leeds play like this against us, we're going to find it very difficult, to say the least.

Re: Today's Football 20-12-20
I know what you mean. Imagine going to Anfield, where Liverpool haven't dropped a single point in many matches, trying to soak up their attacks with their world class front three.Somethingfishy wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 6:10 pmWe certainly can't employ our usual plan of sitting in and soaking attacks up.

Re: Today's Football 20-12-20
I don’t know which is worse, Leeds’ defending or Utd’s finishing

Re: Today's Football 20-12-20
I get that but i think you miss my point. Leeds are there for the taking if we open up and take them on. Not quite the same with Liverpool. When have we done that this season? They are gung ho going forward and slack at the back. We can't just sit back..it would be a big missed opportunity and dangerous.

Spot on.
Don't forget Palace and Arsenal. And we could have come away with 3 points vs Everton. All top sides.

Re: Today's Football 20-12-20
Struggling to see how the pundits can find any positives in this Leeds performance but I’m sure they will.
That’s not in any way to say that if they play the same against us they won’t take the points, but this has been one of the most naive performances I can remember seeing at this level. A totally non-existent defence.

Re: Today's Football 20-12-20
I've been nipping in and out during the game. Man U should have definitely scored a few minutes ago to make it 7-2.
Both missing good chances, but Man U deserve to be winning by more.
