I wonder which players Russell Martin will utilise against us at the weekend ??
More importantly, we Daniel Farke be nieve and play them with a strong team, or will he be sensible and play fringe players and rest the regulars for the playoffs.
28 Apr 2024 17:49:11
That would really depend on what happens on Tuesday I guess.
28 Apr 2024 18:27:38
And even more importantly Leeroy
If it is indeed to be playoffs what is DF gonner do about his non existent midfield
Put our best mf Amps back in midfield?
Recall Kamara?
Play 3 in midfield?
Put AG back at RB?
It needs remedying asap.

A little bit premature Leeroy mate.
Even In saying that we still need our best team out just in case a miracle happens and Huddersfield beat you know who.
If we are to make changes I’d bring Cooper, yes Cooper back in and put Amps back in midfield alongside Kamara.
Archie RB. Bamford if fit up top if not fit Joseph. Rutter needs dropping so if James fit he should come in with Gnonto playing number 10.
One last point. I’d like Creswell to play but he’s probably more rusty than Bazzas balls so a bit risky for him to come in at this stage of the season.
28 Apr 2024 19:20:55
I totally agree Baz.
Obviously Coventry v Ipswich result will have some bearing, but if we have nothing to play for on Saturday surely the fringe players should be on the pitch.
28 Apr 2024 20:38:06
We shouldn’t forget, Huddersfield pulled off that unexpected win against West Brom that confirmed our promotion last time.
28 Apr 2024 20:38:49
Leeroy yes DF needs to utilise his bench
Joffy, Cressy, Antony MJ should all have played far more .
As a tricky peedy RW in my prime I too am available for selection if DJ isn't fit yet.
28 Apr 2024 20:47:24
The midfield quandary is a huge question Baz. Honestly do not know what he will do. Not enough threat from any of the contenders, and therefore too much pressure / too many men on Gio.
28 Apr 2024 21:06:45
It is premature Corky, but I thought I'd ask the question
I totally agree with playing Coops, moving Ampadu into midfield and I'd pop Archie back as RB unless Connor Roberts is fit to play
Rutter can have a rest, play Paddy and Piroe up top with Joseph coming on at HT.
28 Apr 2024 22:20:21
Am I right in hearing baz say df should change his tactics, now I fully agree but more chance of platting fog, not once all season has df played anything else the 4 2 3 1. No wonder teams know how to play against us sorry guys starting to sound like a broken record ⏺️.
29 Apr 2024 00:21:26
Team and tactics for Saturday will entirely depend on the result tomorrow night.
29 Apr 2024 06:17:57
He played Archie in Midfield against Blackburn and QPR, it wasn’t because of Archie we lost those games but at the moment it’s not because he plays in midfield that we will have a positive result.
If fact Amps and Archie playing in their unfamiliar positions saw us go through a eleven game winning streak, explain that?
We have a lot of very talented young players in our squad who unfortunately at the crunch time haven’t shown their experience, because they simply don’t have any to not control their nerves and continue what they had been doing so well up to the international break.
Sadly we only have Bamford as our soul senior player who has been at the club long enough to help and encourage the youngsters through this crucial period on the pitch.
Farke can give them all the encouragement off the pitch but he can’t do it on it. The youngsters have done brilliantly this season and we can only hope if we don’t go up that the club is able to hold onto them, if they do I have no doubt we would end up Champions of this cursed league next season.
But whilst there’s still a chance of promotion I’m still backing Farke and his young charges to do the job, even if it’s the play offs.
For the posters who don’t want to believe and support Leeds Utd which includes our players and coach, please do not respond to my post and likewise I will not respond to yours.
