The Mighty Whites were in control of tonight’s game against Forest, apart from a scary final ten minutes, under the lights at Elland Road.
We’ve opened up a nine point gap over the pit of extinction for now, whilst Forest must surely be more than a little concerned over the outcome of tomorrow’s results.
Nice to see Dan James back in business, and Gabriel Gudmundsson is proving to be a fine piece of transfer business.
Next up is Chelski at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday, and I feel we can get a result.
Leeds were very much better than Forest tonight, all over the pitch. Yes we were missing 3 players in defence tonight (Sels, Murillo and Williams) but their replacements inspired no confidence at all. What’s more regular first-choices like Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi, Anderson and Aina were also well below par.
I hope we’ll improve at the City Ground next Wednesday against Wolves or we’ll be in deep s**t!
Most satisfactory (if we ignore the casual way we threw away yet another clean sheet & which runs counter to everything I was brought up on under Revie).
Our next 3 games are Villa & Chelsea away/Manc City at home. We’re a long way from safety but we’re putting up a decent fight. #lufc
No beef with Spurs, son in law’s a life long supporter so as much as I’d enjoy seeing you relegated and a 60k ground in the Championship I really need you to survive (but not at our expense). As an Essex boy who chose Spurs rather than WHU like his mates the son in law hopes to see a 60k athletic stadium in the Championship.
I don’t think anyone watching Chelsea would describe us as dirty (unless you’re a Leeds fan, of course). Ill discipline and petulant immaturity mostly.
With Chelsea and Man U winning today Liverpool really need those 3 points too because it would be unthinkable for them as defending champions as the leagues biggest spenders last Summer not to qualify for the Champions League there is huge jeopardy for both teams.
Just wanted to say well done to Sunderland they gave us a real game again today Saliba and Gabriel knew they’d been in a game today.
Up until the subs came on and took the game away from them they were right in the match and gave us much, much more of a game than Chelsea did mid week.
