Leeds (A) 19/10 Build-Up & Matchday Thread

[Paul]

I thought we coped better as the half wore on. They’ll always leave space open if we can get pass their press. Easier said than done though. Moutinho and Dendoncker barely touched the ball until just before half time.
They’ve got good movement going forward but you can’t admire a side with the amount of stupid man buns in it.

Get out of here with your 'looking for positives' !!!

 

[AndyWolves]

Probably an over reaction but we keep this up for a few more games and Nuno will be under pressure

Wolves don't really look like they're trying to play through or around the press though, seem determined to go direct for Jimenez and/or Neto at the earliest opportunity generally but Leeds have the legs to get back and get numbers in their favour to negate it. Might be better off trying to play through it and keep the ball a bit, give more players opportunity to get up the pitch and match Leeds' numbers.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

Leeds are a tidy side, I'm not sure though if we're making them look better than they should be. Traore on soon and that will keep them looking over their shoulders and help us get into the match.

I'm gonna say it, I'm not sure we'll get to the next level playing this formation and style.

I'll go even further, when are we expecting our new signings to contribute? Semedo isn't doing much more than Doc right now, no one else looks like getting in a team that isn't exactly firing on all cylinders. I thought our bench options were supposed to be miles better?

Ya think ???

If we're on ten points in a month, you might be right.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Don't you talk about my hair that way!

Lot of respect about to be lost with that admission Alan.

Harrison has been getting the freedom of Elland Road with Semedo appearing to tuck in and hes got cross after cross in. He hasn't had the better of Nelson in their 1v1's but its worrying how much space he's been afforded.

Think Kilman has been very composed though, right call to start so far.

I do wonder why we have so little possession at the moment. I know Leeds are very good at pressing and what not but its almost like Middlesbrough away down to 9 men and we're just fucking it off and waiting for the next round of probing.

Sure, we'd all consider Nuno being under pressure so soon as daft, but in the real world you don't get much time to get your shit together at this level. it's not like the PL is all about the long game and patience.

 

[Jinky]

Prediction: 10-15 minutes of more of the same and then Adama will get thrown on.

 

[Premier Quality]

Saiss at left wing back isn’t working, and we’ve got no creativity in midfield (mostly because Donk and Moutinho are just having to close down space the whole half). We need to get a bit of possession and work some combinations.
Come on boys!!

 

[Deleted Cyber]

lucky to get nil covers it but we are a second half team

 

[Alan]

The back five have all been fine, it's everyone in front of them who seem lost.

The old Wolves were who knows what these guys are!

 

[Jinky]

Patricio catches the ball from the free kick. Holds on to it for ages (no quick throw or kick), rolls it out to Boly who is pressed and boots it straight out of play.

Wolves 2020.

should be an offence a man bun. Ridiculous haircut but then I am a dinosaur

 

[Jinky]

Absolute shite from Raul. Three players on the edge of the box and he tries some pathetic backheel.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Fuck me Raul. You’ve got about 3 good options there and you pick option 4
