I listened to Jesse March’s press conference and he said that he’s going to be sending his team out there to really go after us and press. Typical Bielsa-like Leeds in other words. So hopefully whoever starts in midfield next to J5 between Conor and RLC is fully sharp and ready for that. Should be a very tough match for the third consecutive weekend.

This is the sort of match and the sort of opponent that you’d really like to have Kante and Kova fit for. A match that will likely be very end to end and high tempo. Very frustrating that they’re both already injured 🤦‍♂️

Apparently Gallagher starts

Gallagher starts!

Impressive that we have 4 players in the starting 11 who are produced from the academy. Very impressive. Not enough credit is given to us and we still are given this notion that players from academy do not get chances.

[Pizy 17,900]

Big, BIG chance for Conor to show what he’s got. Excited to see him finally start for us in the PL. 

Looks like Cucu has instantly come in and won the first choice LWB position without even much of a fight. Wonder what Chilly is thinking…

Where’s Broja?

James at RCB against Tottenham is one thing, but against Leeds...

It's such a waste.

Not really anyone on the bench who we can throw on if we’re in desperate need of a goal since Broja is out injured again. Once more highlighting our need for a striker.

I understand the need to play RJ as RCB vs dangerous wingers but who tf is this for leads. Jack Harrison? RJ is wasted there

I think it’s more about the fact that Tuchel doesn’t want to play Azpi who has no legs anymore against quick attackers. Like last week when he specifically mentioned that he wanted Reece at CB to defend Son which he ended up doing brilliantly.

With Fofana hopefully coming in next week we won’t have to see Reece “wasted” back there anymore.

[nyikolajevics 2,464]

Carney on the bench.. Hope we’ll see him

later.

To bad Broja is out. I think that could have been his big chance to prove himself
