It'll go under the radar again especially with all the other good performances, but he's having a fantastic game yet again. Bossing the midfield. Yes. He seems to have developed the Kante telescopic leg. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Tom12345 Posted 2 November 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 2 November 2020 While we focus on the brilliance of Vardy, a shout out to Mendy. Great performance again from the bloke. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxfanazer Posted 2 November 2020 Share Posted 2 November 2020 Just now, when_you're_smiling said: Nah, the pessimist in me almost feels like we need four, we tired a bit towards the end of the half and Marriner is giving us nothing. But given all the injuries, that was a brilliant half. Just need to keep taking chances in the second half and keep the ball well on the break. I don't see us not scoring again to be honest. Leeds can't cope with Vardy and Barnes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted 2 November 2020 Share Posted 2 November 2020 3 minutes ago, Sampson said: This season we're playing him as an attacking midfielder or the right of a front 3 and he's been superb so far this season. It's clear he's an attacking midfielder, not a defensive one No definitely not an attacking midfielder, he doesn’t have the timing of the pass or anticipation what to do in advanced positions. He’s industrious and is doing a decent job today in stopping Leeds gather any momentum though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a dangerous side still. It's not over until the larger than life lady sings. Got to come out strong again second half, sucker punch them again.

jayfox26 Posted 2 November 2020 Share Posted 2 November 2020 Not sure who is more desperate for Leeds to score, Marriner or sky. Some dreadful decisions from Marriner with some fouls and sky are so far up Bielsa's arse, it just will not suit them for us to win. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Corky Posted 2 November 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 2 November 2020 I'm really glad Mendy stayed and we could see what he's really about. All the injuries and the "Mendidi" criticism under Puel and here he is bossing games. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanSP Posted 2 November 2020 Author Share Posted 2 November 2020 Thomas could be a bit more focused and effective over Costa but even then it's a very minor criticism, if that. Benefits a lot from Fuchs next to him though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arriba Los Zorros Posted 2 November 2020 Share Posted 2 November 2020 9 minutes ago, Finnegan said: That's where I don't actually agree. I think we'd have beaten Arsenal far more comfortably if we'd played a proper 4231 all game and I think the we'd beat this Leeds side comfortably if we took the same approach. These have been poor. I think we're better than a lot of people give us credit for, including a lot of our own fans. Agree to disagree. Despite all the efforts made by Puel and Rodgers to make us a team most comfortable in possession and capable of playing a possession game, (and fair play we've come on a lot in this area) I still think we are most dangerous and fluent when playing on the counter against teams that push forward and I always feel more confident we'll win those sort of games compared to having to break down a massed defence.

Carl the Llama Posted 2 November 2020 Share Posted 2 November 2020 Just now, Tom12345 said: For those who say we still need to buy, think about how good we are this game when the following are still the bench: Under, Nachos, Madders, Perez, Hamza. And Gray and Slimani cannot even make the bench. When we have the following out injured: Ricardo, Castagne. Evans, Soyuncu, Ndidi, Amartey! We are depth already. No need more players unless we intend to replace them with someone above and will play them. We definitely need more options up front, but yeah for the most part we just need to get the players we have back to fitness and we'll be a formidable machine in the league and Europe.

Gamble92 Posted 2 November 2020 Share Posted 2 November 2020 The great thing is teams will be so focused on the Barnes and Vardy combo, and then we'll just bring in Maddison and they'll tare it up. Genius from THE BRODGE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st albans fox Posted 2 November 2020 Share Posted 2 November 2020 2-0 is one of those leads .....get the next and it should be over ......concede and anything can happen ........ they are capable of opening our hotchpotch defence up but they are also capable of making terrible errors in giving the ball away and conceding a transition.high up the pitch .... a long way from being relaxed and hopefully we can use the bench well ....... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martyn Posted 2 November 2020 Share Posted 2 November 2020 Good half. Been very impressed with how we've beaten the initial press, Fuchs and Mendy have been instrumental in that. Mendy has been decent all season but that was his best 45 in a LCFC shirt, imperious. Still feel we might need another goal. Just need to stay brave in possession and retain the massive threat on the counter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheppyFox Posted 2 November 2020 Share Posted 2 November 2020 Let’s talk more about Leeds. Leeds have pace, power, energy! Leeds have the best tactics and the best manager in the world. Bamford will win the golden boot, Leeds are unlikely to lose again this decade. Often I wonder how many times this Leeds squad will win the champions league in a row, once they inevitably qualify for it this year. Leeds, did we mention Leeds are playing? Leeds. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentFox Posted 2 November 2020 Share Posted 2 November 2020 2 minutes ago, Messi said: Probably been said in the 30 pages of this thread, but Justin could have a really, really top career as a CB in a 3. He has been absolutely top drawer every time he has played there. Brilliant to see Mendy and Praet putting there stamp on the team this season aswell. Top players. So comfortably his best position. He genuinely fits in at this level there. He struggles at full-back, presently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
