Leeds Utd v Sheffield Utd Match Thread - Liam Cooper returns in place of Pascal Struijk

So much for keeping the shirt on performance

Robert's didnt wrong Bielsa though.....

No....but........

I'm saying nothing on the subject Swannie

[1964white]

That's a lovely gesture of respect. It's another sign of how well the club's being run from top to bottom that the history of the club is being honoured in such a way. Radz and the team understand the culture here, a mirror opposite of say Newcastle.

A class act

Not our strongest first X1 though!

Worth noting though that the same can be said of the opposition - and Heckingbottom's managerial skill (he's only got McGoldrick as captain! ) taken into consideration - and this is where Bielsaball shines because the system has everyone playing in a well-ingrained system, everyone knows what they're supposed to do.

Just have to hope our defenders arrive switched-on and put in a Chelsea performance, not a Manure performance.

One positive is Blades have to play without wingers, it limits their options.

The squad is geared towards Wilder's 3-5-2, they havent got any wingers.

Exactly, they're up against a well-drilled machine where everyone knows what they're supposed to do. Just need effort to be high from the start so we click into gear quicker and not get caught out by early pressure.

They need to see one another's proper numbers, Bielsa's a fanatic for using player's number only and not name, probably drills the same mentality into the players.

Shite fk by Raphinha

Loving Bielsa's sharp new look. Looks much healthier these days, been out sunbathing.

Early yellow for Lundstrum, 7 min.

[White Riot]

Our passing is dreadful so far

[The Subhuman]

Roberts wins two early FK and draws a yellow
Dallas has lost possession twice so far

[White Riot]

Thankfully Blunts are as bad at delivering corners as we are at defending them and taking them of course

[White Riot]

Decent hit By KP

[SG90]

Knew Cooper would waltz straight back in. FFS so depressing. Struijk will be playing for the u23s again.

[mothbanquet]

Lovely shot from Kalvin! Need to keep this keeper pressure up.

[White Riot]

Gonna be a busy day for Ramsdale

[whiteswan]

Commentator...."Leeds beginning to swarm".....Love it

[The Subhuman]

Superb from Kalvin that, good save

[White Riot]

Knew Cooper would waltz straight back in. FFS so depressing. Struijk will be playing for the u23s again.

I'd have left Struijk and Llorente in
