Leeds United Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours 2020/2021

If we'd signed Eze we wouldn't have signed Raphinha. I'm happier with Raphinha.

NuckChorris1

Joffy on the bench! Hope he gets a chance.

Carcharodon

I expect a win today but to be fair we could also lose 4-0

Bench looks very light.

purple hands

Palace yet to win a game without Zaha

FFS!

Mushy

Get in

Carcharodon

Jesus that was way too easy, let it continue

That was so quick. Make the space and hit it, so many times you see other teams take 3 touches and try bet a player then cross it and it comes to nothing

blaa85

That pitch looks like a nightmare to play on!

Mushy

Should be 2-0 there now

Carcharodon

That was lovely by Bamford bar the finish obviously
I was just texting someone that Cahill is there for the taking, he is half a yard off the pace

Shlippery

Would be good to see Joe G / 'Joffy' get a run around!

Carcharodon

Letting Palace back into this, need to up the tempo

Raphinha absolute baller. He has Cahill's number, he knows it and Cahill knows it :-D

Mushy

Gonna be smiling at that nutmeg all day tomorrow. Run at Cahil, he will get another card

Yep, you could tell from the first few minutes that Cahill was in trouble, our style of play is a nightmare for him

Seathrun66

Should really be three up. Hope we don't regret but don't think we will. Many more cards for Palace I think. They can't deal with much more of this.

Raphinha immense.

Hijpo

We really should be putting these away. 1-0 is excruciating. I like that we are controlled going forward, as a unit, and not just blasting it as fast as we can that causes bamford to be isolated.

Mushy

Bamford must have thought he was offside

Carcharodon

Frustrating 1-0, should if scored at least one more
Palace have been dreadful, can’t see them being as bad in the second half

Ceist_Beag

Raphinha is unplayable tonight. That turn was just ridiculous! Should be three up alright

purple hands

Missing too many chances

Palace absolutely there for the taking

Raphina wont go this year or anything. He's good but not that good yet.

Ha.

It is a thing of beauty

We needed that. Thanks Paddy.

Excellent by Raphinha again, great awareness and positioning from Bamford.

Palace getting into the game a bit.

Carcharodon

Bamford started that move by pressing the full back
Well done Bamford

purple hands

Phew

Shlippery

Absolutely chuffed for Paddy.

Mushy

Twice Bamford closed down on the wing. Then sprinted back to follow up, great effort in the few moments beforehand

purple hands

Pascal scores we're on the pitch

Bamford has scored against all his former clubs this year, he steps up vs them IMO.

Got one right anyway

Mushy

Got off there

Carcharodon

Not sure if it’s the game or my hangover but this a hard game to watch, very poor

Passes and flow is starting to slow down, starting to take extra touches and delay passes. Slack passing starting to creep in a bit to.

I'd like to see a few changes now tbh.

Yea, Raphina look beat, some fresh legs needed

Zaph

Hopefully nothing serious for Kalvin

Legs looked very heavy the last 10-15 minutes

Carcharodon

Good win, Palace offered absolutely nothing though

Mushy

Comfortable night, bar a very brief effort. Meslier could've sat on the couch beside me

Should have taken him off when he went down first

purple hands

That'll do nicely

A few things to take from tonight.
Struijk is not a natural finisher.
Klich was much sharper.
We totally controlled the game with a much more mature performance.
I've a mancrush on Raphina.

Ceist_Beag

A boring 2-0 win, how unlike Leeds! We did look tired but very comfortable all the same. Top half of the table is pretty sweet.
As an aside, the Fantasy football bonus points system is clearly flawed as it didn't have Raphinha in the top 5 points scorers tonight!

Eggs For Dinner

Thought Cooper had a very good game. Developing serious man-love for Rapha

Hijpo

Bamford post match are always great, really really nice guy.

Ceist_Beag

What a brilliant interviewee Lord Bamford is, so refreshing and entertaining! I captained myself tonight ... Legend!

10000maniacs

We made Palace look like a Sunday League side today. Never got a sniff of goal.

It's the most solid I've seen Cooper for a while. He's played alongside Struijk for the last few games, I wonder if it's a case of him having more confidence in his partner now?

Raphinha looks like he's going to be our most significant signing since Pablo. I now know why the Rennes fans were so p*ssed off.
