It's like they've read this forum this week and thought "we'll show you"

Goals from freekicks, goals from midfield, Piroe playing like prime r9.

Brilliant all round.

Very pleased.

Meslier with a worldie save, Archie defending like prime Thuram.

Excellent all round.

And much more forward passing, well done DF for that

Do we put our foot on the ball and close the back doors, second half?

Or do we go hell for leather and make up for the last several games and go into the final on the back of a 4 or even 5-0 win?!

I enjoyed that too

I always think Stuart Robson is one of the most even and knowledgable co-commentators. He commentated on our under 18s and knew what he was talking about

Counter attack, with the pace we have. Not sure if Norwich will come out fired up or if they're knackered. First 15 will show us.

They need to come at us, no point letting them, keep them on the back foot.

James and Roberts on the counter could be lethal in the second half here…

They'll give all they have for the first 15. We need to be prepared.

Need to make a statement. Plenty of rest for Wembley if we get there. Give them a damn good thrashing 🤞

4th will kill it, but no showboating or f**king up Leeds. Need to keep it professional, or they could get right back in it.

Quiet second half, 3-0 at half time is an adequate message ahead of the final.

7-0 would be great though. :)

Part of me is a bit annoyed that if we showed even half of what we're showing tonight, in the last 5/6 weeks. we would be promoted already.
