Leeds United v West Ham Utd - Match Thread

[White Riot]

Harrison is so good at finding their defenders, does he take lessons?

You saw last season with Bamford that Bielsa will just keep playing the same players even if they're suffering and lost confidence

[Fridge]

Been calling for Rodrigo for weeks... he has been dire

[rab_rant]

Only wish Klich would take a shot rather than do those delicate chips that don't come off

Another enjoyable game of football to watch.

I love being in the Premier League, not only because it's great to be back at the top, but because the standard of football is so high.

Both we and West Ham are playing good football proving the depth of quality at this level.

Coops has been very good at the back, Klich here there and everywhere in the middle and Rodrigo having a very good game as well. Skillful and industrious, just like Bielsa likes them. Good to see Raphinha come more into the game as the half wore on as well.

[Fridge]

Shackleton and Costa going through an intense warm up apparently.

On for Harrison and Rodrigo?

Oz are you being sarcastic?

He was yanked against Chelsea ( ironically once he started improving)

This is the Prem guys.

They have a plan. They also have players who think twice as fast as some of ours.

Harrison finds Bamford with a decent cross, header straight at the keeper.

Best you can do decent cross? I thought he put it on a plate for Paddy

[Lumiukko]

So if this was Football Manager....

Pablo for Klich
Struijk for Ali with a switch across the back four.
Shacks for Bamford with Rod going up front.

Only Struijk for me with the back four switch. I'd wait a bit for some Pablo magic and Klich is usually one of our more consistent performers and may step up this second half. Bamford hasn't done anything wrong either.

The goal conceded was just a catalogue of weakness.

Harrison whose main skill is defending was to weak to shepherd the ball out.

Dallas whose not a natural defender was weak in the air.

Meslier with biscuit wrists.

Not bad Ian.

We defo need Pablo on

[John in Louisiana]

That first half was our entire season in a microcosm.

A lot of possession, a lot of highly entertaining football, concede on a corner.

Too early imo.

[Chilli D]

Neither side really dominant, both had spells on top.
We're trying to overplay it instead of someone having a dig.
Good half from Ayling, Phillips and Raphinha.
Really poor from Harrison

[BGwhite]

Lucky to still be in it imo.

Yeah, shocking mate, as weak as Klichs penalty

Correct mate

Just tactical switches but lets see if MB can give them some insight.

[White Riot]

Meslier was piss poor at stopping that header

[The Subhuman]

Two mid table sides playing fairly good football.. We should have had a pen for the handball and their goal should have been an easy save for Meslier who has to own that error imo.

We've edged it for me
