General Chat • Re: The #LUFC Breakfast Debate (Mon 13th May)
Leeds will be without Adam Forshaw for the second leg of the Semi play play off against Derby on Wednesday evening.
Agree wholeheartedly with Grayson here. If ever there was a time this season to start Shack, it's now. Playoffs are not just a test of nerve and courage but also physical endurance, and this lad's pace alone will make defenders groan aloud at the thought of having to contain him.
Harrison has come in for a World of abuse this season, but will you ever see a better cross than the one he spoon fed Roofe for the only goal of the game?
Although I still believe he's still the weakest part of the squad, he came through for us on Saturday and you can't ask more of him than that. If that assist means the difference between promotion and not, I'll bid him farewell in the summer with honest well wishes for the future.
Fat Frank has come out and said that his team have nothing to lose on Wednesday evening. Will that make it harder for us to play against them.
Sorry for the reality check, Frank, but you have everything to lose. He clearly wants to settle nerves but his team won't feel the same way. After three losses in a season against us, you can bet that while some will be trying to put a bit of fire into their teammates' hearts, most will privately be dreading the idea of doing it all over again and possibly feel defeated before they've begun.
Will Bielsa change Leeds tactics?
Neither will he nor should he. If it ain't broke, etc etc.
Were Leeds lucky not to concede a penalty on Saturday?
Yes, but only because we've had dog's luck with officials for so long, that we had a penalty decision correctly overturned would seem more like fortune than anything else.
Watch these two incidents 4 minutes apart, and give me your thoughts.
Keogh to see red shortly after we score our first on Wednesday. Mark my words.
