true. but he misses sitters on a regular basis. we had a better striker we would have been up now

No doubt. But I’d add If we had better wingers too..

Strangely we're in a better position than this time last week.

We must not lose against Fulham. A draw is a decent result as it keeps them at arms length. Win for us and wba and we're 10 clear with 8 to go.

big weekend. a draw and beating luton would be a good few days

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sat Jun 27, 2020 6:37 pm  

first half not great, dominated second. fantastic result. now push on, beat luton and one hand is on the title

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sat Jun 27, 2020 7:33 pm  

8 points clear with 21 available. Win three more and 8 becomes 17... To overturn that would be incredible.

Almost there, 3 more wins...

Good second half performance. Interesting Bamford subbed which worked perfectly. Took his goal well but was very poor without the ball which is unlike him. Hernandez makes a big diff to that midfield he frees Klich up and creates goals. Great win. Blackburn away in two games time won’t be easy but I don’t think any will be at this point

Very brave decision to replace Bamford after he scored but the right one.
I did say that Roberts up front adds more to the attack.
Unusual for Leeds to be outplayed for possession especially at home.
After the getting away with the deliberate elbow on White I thought it was going to be one of those days again but we played the right game and got the points.
Where does this leave Bamford whose predicted goal scoring based on chances was 23 instead of 13?

On the bench for me. Roberts has to keep his place. Roberts was v sharp pre lockdown also. Interesting to hear Steve McLaren thoughts on Bamford. Had him as a player at Mids and played him out wide.. said he lacked aggression needed to be a goal scoring striker...
