Rodrigo's going to be pulling on that #9 shirt for Spain next week, telling his teammates how Bamford and Tyler Roberts are keeping him out of the team.

Let's hope that we keep our heads when under pressure - no silly, rash tackles, and if necessary a defender's arms down and virtually behind his back if making a tackle in a dangerous area. I hope that Lorente is aware of the new handball rules if he plays.
Bound to be a penalty or 2 given the new interpretations of the handball rule. I’ve got Klich down as one of my scorers just in case👍🏻. I’ve got Rodrigo down as my other scorer though, so hope he gets on for the 2nd half.
Come on Leeds!

That front for us is not very scary. Well, here's hoping Alio can make some magic.

Bench is getting more defensive. Last week he added Davis for Bogusz. This week its Llorente for Alioski.

Roberts needs to turn up today. Rodrigo will soon be wondering what he has to do to get a look in.

Can only assume its knowledge of the system that has Roberts over Rodrigo.

Based on displays last week Rodders every time.

I suspect he'll be on at half time unless things are going really well

Roberts makes us defensively better, Rodrigo not there yet. It's the right team as far as it goes, I have the usual qualms but it ain't Roberts

I don't get that. Shackleton makes us defensively better and at least gets involved in the game.

We saw glimpses of him there last season. And he seems to fit Bielsa's ideals for that roll better (an attacking mid rather than a 10). Right now he's just stuck behind a couple of senior boys
