ShortmanRossco Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 12 minutes ago, Lord Beni of Gorgie said: Leeds looked really good last night, despite relegation they carry still a pretty strong squad. With Farke at the wheel, they should dominate Championship, this is "almost" as good as playing an EPL team Yeah was very impressed last night. Looking like it's clicking into gear.

They must be quick learners then because the match report on their recent friendly against Man U said they were a disorganised shambles , even allowing for the difference in class.

It was a team thrown together for their first game. Strength of their squad quite frightening in comparison really, for a team relegated, that has already shed quite a few players. New 7 million signing, and the amount of full internationals that will play for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extenuating circumstances. Manager was only in the door one day, that's 2 weeks he's had now and you can see patterns of play developing.

Saw a couple of days ago that Leeds were still selling tickets for the Roseburn 2,269 left in home stands, so looks like around 13,000 sold plus whatever Leeds sell.

tazhearts Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 Does anyone have any links to the main Leeds United forum? It would be interesting to read their thread / thoughts on this game. I have to admit it gives me the fear that we get pumped 5 or 6 nil - which isn't really great prep for the St. Johnstone game next week. I think I'd have preferred weaker opposition.

XB52 Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 This game will be a real test of where we are one week from the start of the season.

Will be interesting to see who starts in back 4, (presuming Cochrane wont), and how that back 4 knits and copes with this standard. I expect a loss, its all about how we cope. Decent test before Perth and Trondhiem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex member of the SaS Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 Not expecting anything but a loss , a good work out as long as we don't get any injuries. You never improve playing lesser teams and only by testing yourself against better opposition do you find out where your weaknesses are.

Leeds fans have had more to worry about themselves. The main interest is how new manager is setting up the team. And maybe the team will play first league game.
