McCormack & Somma start. Hughes RB White LB. Bruce at CB.

Lets hope it pays off!

Don't think kilkenny knows what closing down or tackling are. Johnson needs to be taken off before he gets sent off.been ineffectual as well.like to see Sam for gradel.gradal works hard but final ball is poor

Re: OT - All New Leeds United thread : Fri Sep 17, 2010 8:38 pm  

Better than Tuesday. 0-0

Re: OT - All New Leeds United thread : Fri Sep 17, 2010 8:49 pm  

Somma or Bruce MOTM. Hope McCormack is ok and it was just abit of a knock.

Re: OT - All New Leeds United thread : Fri Sep 17, 2010 9:18 pm  

Thought we played well tonight although i woud of liked to of seen Sam instead of Johnson.
Bruce has to keep his place imo as do Somma and Mcormack.

Decent result against a team who do well at home. Bruce always looked in control. Somma was dangerous and will be disapointed not to have scored

Re: OT - All New Leeds United thread : Sat Sep 18, 2010 12:11 am  

Good result but should have taken all 3 points. Somma looks a good find and the loan at Lincoln has done him the world of good, should of scored like but he'll get plenty this season and deserves a good run in the side. We've also got Paynter to come back up front aswell.
Thought Bruce was fantastic at the back and that should be Naylor out of the side for a while. Put in some great tackles and was passing well when he won the ball rather than just hoofing it upfield.
What's up with Connolly? Hughes was okay and made a great block on Sharp first minute but he worries me in defence, a quick winger will torture him.
The midfield still isn't right IMO, Faye needs to be given a start. Kilkenny and Johnson cant tackle and offer very little going forward. I'd rather see Sam, Faye, Howson, Snoddy in midfield. Howson cant tackle but offers more in attack than Killa and BJ and with Faye sitting in midfield Howson can push on. Snodgrass is a certain starter now he's back and Sam looked one of our best players the first few games and he was scoring, now he's sat warming the bench. Squad has depth and good competition now so any average performances and players should be dropped. Larry just always seems to stick with the three midfielders in Howson, Kilkenny and Johnson no matter how poor any of them play.

Howson does my f-cking head in. Honestly. Soooo badly. He just coasts through games I swear. And how the f-ck is he captain?!

Bruce has definitely cemented his place over Naylor and I'm glad. Naylor was too slow and cost us too many times with his mistakes week after week. Wonder what the Juve scout was looking for last night? Hopefully take Naylor off us!

Conolloy seemed to be holding his Thigh IIRC towards the end of the Barnsley game and was limping around, Personally i fail to see what Bradley Johnson brings to the team he can't tackle & he's slow,Neil Kilkenny IMO does have the ability to create but he fustrates me with the fact he never pushes on in Attack the Barnsley game being a perfect example and Jonny Howson i'm not his biggest fan but he gets stuck into tackles and has can pick out a fantastic long range pass, Hopefully Amdy Faye will be put into the Holding role to allow Howson to push on forward.
