Leeds can win tonight, but we will have to go at WBA and put them under pressure ... like so many Championship teams they are ok going forward but shaky at the back
A good point about WBA aiming to win. The odd thing is that our defence has looked to be better than last season, it is our creativity and ability to score goals that now looks really lacking given departures / absentees. This could be an attritional 0-0.

Predicted Starting Lineup

-----------------------------------------Meslier---------------------------------------

Ayling---------------Cresswell--------------------Struijk--------------Byram

-------------------------Ampadu--------------------Gray---------------------------

Poveda------------------------------Gelhardt----------------------------James

-------------------------------------------Rutter--------------------------------------
Although he was ineffective last week, Poveda is probably back in the center again with Rutter on the wing and gelhardt up top.

Another option is greenwood as starter or sub to play alongside ampadu with poveda on the right and Archie in the center

I agree, it's a fine line when you've got bob standard to shite players turning out, if he went all out attack the defence would probably crumble, if like at Birmingham last week he tries his best to grind a result, we're then limited in attack with the main threat hoping to come from set pieces, i've no idea how good WBA are, come 8pm we'll know, i'm v interested to see who he goes with and how he sets his stall out, i'm trying to stay half full ,but with the players he's got, i think it's gonna be how shite WBA are.

We are at home though and ALL should be giving 100% to impress the new gaffer, if we've no strength in attack and seeing as Joffy looked stranded last week, does he try something different than just 1 up front, but that's when the defence will come under pressure.

Even if we get beat, i hope i can see good signs of what he's trying to do, and hope to God Ampadu comes through unscathed.

Poveda as the 10 would be a big mistake for me, it's a heads up position and Poveda is a very head down player, he's a right winger

I don't think we have much more option than what was fielded last week

Rutter would be the only definite option to start. Greenwood and Drameh are back but Farke has said both are lacking match fitness. I'd like to see Drameh get a go.

If Rutter plays, it will be as striker. That's the way they set up in preseason, with Gelhardt behind him.

One thing for sure. We can't play Shackleton on the wing. And Poveda has to go back out wide

I'd play a 4-3-3 with Schackleton joining the other 2 in midfield. Poveda-Rutter-James up front

But if he sticks with the 4-2-3-1

Meslier
Drameh-Cresswell-Strujik-Byram
Ampadu-Gray
Poveda-Gelhardt-James
Rutter

Not homophobic. Certainly not today. Check the dictionary meaning.
Anal sex is on the increase between heterosexual couples. A GP I know says it’s an increasing problem, that and shaving the pubes off. He didn’t expand as we were having Toad in the Hole at the time. That’s food not a euphemism

If he goes with Rodon it's probably the end for CC.

After last weeks lack of a goal threat i wonder if he sticks with 4-2-3-1.

I've never understood a mans need to want to pot the brown, especially when there's a beautiful pink available.
