If ever there was a mid season must win game, this is it.

The Geordies are in awful form, slip up here and we have a very difficult few games......could end up with something like 2 points from next 8 games.

In fact would go so far as to say this is our most important game of the season so far.

come on Leeds, lets not go into freefall

Rodrigo needs to have a good game tonight to justify his selection because he was awful against Brighton.

Assuming Bielsa sees Koch and Llorente on par, this is essentially the team he would play without any injuries.

Of course that is assuming that the Dallas/Klich change is a tactical choice rather than a forced one, and I feel that it probably is.

Alioski at left back and Dallas in for Klich. Tbf Klich has not been up to his usual standard of late - he has played a hell of a lot of games over the last couple of years, I wonder if Bielsa’s just giving him a break.

Always possible that he is carrying a knock but I feel that this is the reason Klich isn’t playing today

Only surprise is Klich not playing. Perhaps we will see him as an impact sub.

Decent looking bench tonight.

I think some Leeds fans are expecting an easy ride tonight.

Forget it.

Dias Belloli is Raphinha’s proper name


Raphael Dias Belloli is his full name

Dias Belloi in his place.

A secret siging.
