Dont think there is any issue with the team selection, this starting 11 is only going to get stronger with the talent that is sitting on the bench! Cant see anything but a Leeds win. Onwards and upwards!! Come on LEEDS!! :scarf1:

Re: Team and ratings versus Coventry
Honestly Twiggs if you saw anything but an inspirational, hard working, skillful captain when you watched Jonny against Doncaster then you must be losing it.
Jonny was my MOTM (although you could have given it to just about anyone on the pitch against Donny, they all played so well)

Would you be better to count to ten mate before chomping on a maggot long since past it's useable date
Howson was motm and has been for 3 or 4 games on the bounce imo. He has risen to and beaten the challenge presented by Clayton [imo]. Both excellent players in an excellent team.

Re: Team and ratings versus Coventry
He'd have been lost without Clayton to pass square to nearly every time as he appeared lost in possession and was dispossessed a few times whilst he hesitated. Watch again, especially in the first ½.Silky wrote:Honestly Twiggs if you saw anything but an inspirational, hard working, skillful captain when you watched Jonny against Doncaster then you must be losing it.

Let Donny in with a scoring chance twice, through backing out of tackles and nearly every pass he made was behind the man he played it to.
That said, he came out of his shell at 3-0 and showed what he CAN do when his confidence is up...
I watched the whole game again today, as I couldn't believe the way people were calling him MOTM last night.
Hard working YES! Skillfull? MOTM? No WAY.
My MOTM was Keogh (or possibly Aidy), tho as you say, they were all excellent! :thup:
However - this thread is about the Coventry game and I'll be more than happy to see the same team start. Possible doubt for Lonny, depending on how fast the bruising goes down on his finger.

Do you have fixture lists for Handball mate? That would be really helpful!

Another 3 points on the way, another hat full of goals and another clean sheet!
Leeds is in my blood, always will be.

Re: Team and ratings versus Coventry
I'll reserve judgement for a few months yet to see if consistency is the main point. One good game does not make a season! Win, lose or draw, I don't care, providing 100% is given by the team and nothing less. None of this BS about half-hearted games thankyouverymuch!Silky wrote:

I think we would all be happy with the same team for tomorrow night. I think we will only see changes if players are fatigued or picked up slight knocks or niggles against doncaster.

Re: Team and ratings versus Coventry
Friday night made me realise what Keogh is all about! Hes so useful, he just doesnt stop working! He reminds me of dirk Kuyt actually
Confident of a good result against coventry! ... but then again, this is the championship ... but Leeds are in good form and looking good to cement their place in the play-off places against a poor coventry side.

Re: Team and ratings versus Coventry
Now you realise why i select Keogh on a regular basis Jon, his energy & workrate, holding up the ball, awareness, good pace makes it much easier for the likes of McCormack & our midfield to play their natural gameJonTheBassist wrote:Friday night made me realise what Keogh is all about!

A star-studded performance from AK v Donny
Keogh & Pugh will prove to be two very shrewd signings !

Re: Team and ratings versus Coventry
Rest snoddy for the weekend and maybe give luci and forsell a runout. Lots of fixtures coming up so a little rotation keeps everyone fresh

Not a bad shout Joe.. He must be tempted to give the lads a rest, but it'd be a tough call to make.joelufc20 wrote:Rest snoddy for the weekend and maybe give luci and forsell a runout. Lots of fixtures coming up so a little rotation keeps everyone fresh
What happens if he rests McCormack and Forrsell comes in and scores a hat trick?

Fitness/Rest is the only reason to need to swap anyone, but Grayson may be wanting to make a change or two to assess other players. I don't think the back four will or should change, but a little shake-up in midfield might help us remain a little more unpredictable. Maybe let Vayrynen start, with Clayton being an impact sub??
