Leeds (H) 18/3/22 - Build-Up & Match Thread

[The Bear]

We know he can't score, but we do know he links play well and can beat players.

Chiquinho at least makes defenders work, I really like what we've seen from him so far.

Trincao is so frustrating; he obviously has all the pieces to be frightfully good but he just kinda gives up on things. Showed better in his last appearance but we've seen him flatter to deceive before.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I don’t think Jesse Marsch said Phillips was definitely back. In fact I would be very surprised if he was, from reading the press conference quotes on the Beeb this morning.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Phillips would be a huge lift for them if he is back, he's their talisman.

Lets hope he isn't, would be a surprise to see him start after so long out.

If they go down might he be someone we could be in for? I really like him, although he is a little injury prone.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

We wouldn't get near, we're not spending that kind of money.

 

[Sniffer]

He'd have suitors above our station.

 

[The Bear]

Sa

Kilman - Coady - Saiss

Jonny - Neves - Moutinho - RAN

Hwang - Jimenez - Podence


Trincao to come on as sub.

Picks itself really. Guess Boly could play or he might go Donck for Hwang.

Same team as against Watford for me. Means Kilman missed out but Boly was missed against Everton.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Apparently Raphinha is out with Covid.

 

[Mel Evo]

Raul and Podence up top (or it’s Donk in the front 3 again).

 

[Carsy]

No real suprises with that team. Thought he’d go with donk

 

[The Bear]

3-5-2 again.

 

[AndyWolves]

3-5-2 again.

Is it more 343 with donk a bastardised right sides forward?

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Is it more 343 with donk a bastardised right sides forward?

Lets hope not.

Interesting how he swapping around Boly and Kilman

 

[Carsy]

Time will tell.

 

[Carsy]

Lets hope not.

Potential risk of burnout with kilman factored in nursing boly back? Kilmans first real full season of consistently playing alongside the Ukraine situ can’t be easy I’d imagine

 

[Jinky]

Sky have Donk as part of the front three.

Raphina being out with the ‘vid is good news for us. Obviously hope he’s ok.

 

[Dire Wolf]

Not really sure what Donk offers that we need in this game really. I would like us to try and be really positive and get at their fragile defence. Not sure Donk helps with that.

Depends how it’s played. Logic would dictate you have him sweeping in CM allowing wingbacks to just bomb on and him to cover. However nothing of how we’ve played previously would indicate that’s the plan
