Leeds (A) 6/8/22 - Build-Up & Match Thread

[Nando]

So that's a bench of Sarkic, Boly Coady, Toti, Mosquera, Cundle, Campbell, Hwang and another. Probably Hodge or Griffiths considering we don't have another central midfielder on the books.

Christ alive.

 

[AndyWolves]

He could switch to 3 ATB

 

[Tony Towner]

You watch him still play Dendoncker further forward than Ronan

I really hope not.

You'll be happy to hear that Enzo Fernández made his debut for Benfica last night and was absolutely quality. €15M for him, he'll move for €50M+ in a season or 2.

He played last week, scored in both games so far. Looks like the keeper could've done better on both occasions though.

 

[prawnking]

Relying on a 35 year old outfield player (even one as fit as Joao) as a constant starter when you're already paper-thin in that department is always liable to blow up in your face

 

[AndyWolves]

Let's not forget that moutinho might actually not be injured (although I don't disagree with the sentiment).

 

[Jinky]

Moutinho confirmed as out and not travelled. Fantastic stuff.

Our squad depth is fucking laughable.

 

[Nando]

Hwang up top. 4-2-3-1.

 

[WsWolf]

Starting 11 is alright, should be good enough to beat Leeds but that bench has absolutely no game changing quality on.

 

[Deano]

Hopefully the game starts well as there is nothing to bring on

 

[Kenny]

Hwang and Donck starting. Can someone check on Johnny please

 

[Jack Regan]

Yep five substitutes available to each team but we'll be making none from that bench. It's a real sorry state of affairs for a team that's been in the premier league for the last four years.

Saying that, the Leeds lineup is pretty threadbare so we should definitely be getting something from them.

 

[YoungWolf]

I would sack sellars for the state of the bench. Genuinely. Imagine how much money he is on and he allows that.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

We invariably lose anyway if we concede first. Doesn't matter who's on the bench.

Stopped reading there as that is all that needs saying.

Well hopefully that is going to change with the new system and hopefully some more new players as that stat when we went behind last season was fucking shit and unsustainable.

Yep pretty much being payed hefty money and as got about as much working output as I’ve had the last 2 days and I’ve been by the pool sunbathing
