Chelsea v Leeds United Match Thread

This lad knows his football.

Great analysis!

The last few minutes of both matches could be the most important minutes of our season, Palmer misses a tap-in from 2 yards to beat us and United score in the 96th minute to deny Wet Spam the 3 points. It wasn’t hard to see who were the happiest players, fans & manager at the end, a massive kick in the teeth for West Ham who could have closed the gap to 3 points & narrowed the goal difference. Hopefully Wolves can up their game tonight & take something off Florist.

United????? What?
Cussie....Leeds are Leeds UNITED....how can you call Scum just United.
Sorry, it's a bug bare of mine. TV, newspapers, when they talk football about 'United' like Man U have the rights to the 'United'...its not their right.
We have Leeds Utd
Sheffield Utd
Newcastle Utd
West Ham Utd,
Oxford Utd......I could go on, like I say it's a bug bare of mine......
Sorry.....
Please forgive my rant...

Go on Swanny lass, do ‘im. He’s got no rights to call himself a Leeds fan. That Cussie’s gone straight on Santas naughty list for that. Unforgivable. Tsk.

Apologies for ruffling your bare bugs Swannie, if you’re bored enough you can scroll through all my posts on here & you’ll see I’ve never called them United before, usually The Scum, and I’ve no idea why I called them that this time.
I hope you didn’t lose any sleep over it as I certainly didn’t.

That’s what put me off them in the first place, plus the media fawning over them.

Chelsea finally announces the official attendance of 39,253.

About a 1000 didn't turn up.

They can't even fill their 41k stadium.

He does .. TBH, nothing there I haven't said a thousand times already

Cjay wouldn't have spoken about Leeds in the same way the Chelsea or neutral fan above spoke.

I doubt anyone listened to the clip above, as the majority on here don't listen to the YouTube videos, especially what the opposition fans have to say about Leeds.

Too busy spouting their own opinions!

[1964white]

I surprised Rodon received low ratings, he won as many headers as Bijol, and didn't make a howler!

4 - won aerial duals
4 - Inteceptions
3 - tackles
2 - pieces of good defending

Just two loose passes throughout the game.

Only Justin had more excellent/very good moments, with Joe & Jaka level.

I watched but agree, vids for the most part are scrolled past. There's some I avoid, some of the fans in the ground ones are unwatchable due to them being unable to keep the camara still...

C Jay is analytical, not biased.

I thought he defend very well, just those two loose passes put us under quite a bit of pressure at the time. Once people have it in their mind it's a negative set up, every mistake is pounced on and highlighted. At this time we cannot go toe to toe away from home with teams like Chelsea, it's just fact, DF put a plan together with the players he had available and it won us a point, a fortunate one but they all count.

A lovely moment for one of our young fans celebrating at the end of the game.

Well said, John.

The first time in Leeds United's history, we have come from two goals behind to avoid defeat in a match against Chelsea. What an effort!!!

Did anyone else think that lad looks about 12?

Whatever you make of his content, which I thought was spot on for a neutral, he's very eloquent - and his delivery and continuity were superb. Definitely a radio/vlogging career for him.

Just goes to show too that the wider football community is now paying quite a bit of attention to what Leeds are doing, even if it seldom penetrates our bubble.

Indeed, an eloquent, knowledgeable 12yo boy, Dave.

I have to say, I've felt for a couple of games now that Joe hasn't been at his best. I suspect if you were talking to him he'd agree, such is the level of performance he seems to expect of himself.

It's unusual for him not to be head and shoulders our best CB, but there's been something not quite clicking recently.

Maybe it's the quality of the opposition, with Chelscum and the Arse, but he's started making errors which he wouldn't normally make - stray passes, poor positioning, ducking under the cross when Gyokeres(?) scored.

And there's no lack of effort, so it'll come good, form/quality etc.

Sorry Leon, I know he can do no wrong in your eyes.
