Afternoon.

Dunno about the rest of you but this is not a place Leeds have many good memories.

Not looking forward to this.

Like the world cup, only checked if given as a corner, not if it's given as a free kick?

Good Morning All,

Happy New Year!!! The new season is finally upon us. It's a 7am kickoff here in the Arizona desert. A quick glance at the starting eleven reveals no surprises. Daniel Farke hinted earlier this week that Noah Okafor was somehow not fit enough to start. Which is frankly shocking! So Aaronson gets the nod. Let's see what he can do with it.

Its very frantic, the ball wont stick.

DCL with 3CBs controlling him, but without really testing thei keeper we look ok.
