A good example of how good tactics and philosophy need fire power in the way of backing with a big squad and correct players for the long run
Lamps was able to call upon loan players from Chelsea and they helped when it mattered.

Not specifically. Leeds' goalkeeper was a moron twice and then the last goal was a consequence of red card. Without the dumb goalkeeper, Leeds would have walked this.


This is why I have always advocated for intelligence in football and why I dislike players like Musa and Ramires. One dumb player can completely unravel your whole plan.

In terms of defenders, no one beats our Arsenal's Mustafi.

He must be pinching himself lucky everyday wondering how he is playing for a Europa League side. :laugh: :laugh:

How did they miss the goalie's madness in the playoffs?

You cannot win a knockout fest with an unstable goalie!

The league is clearly a level above his abilities, should have joined the Prem if he wanted a cake walk. Also don't look now but the karma for the Moore sacking might be delayed.

Huge result yesterday. This season’s championship will be more blinding than a barney with Arthur and Tommy Shelby. Bielsa’s boys will need to be on it till the bell rings for the last lap. Much like last season, there will be no cruise control, should the Norsemen ease up on their stride once more, rest assured the pack will attack like Kipkoeches and Kiptanuis. A playoff dust up is certainly not ideal, they simply lack the fire power for such a gunfight.

Bilic bites back at Bielsa...loading.

Leeds need to do it this season and shouldn’t trust the playoffs as a valid route. Too variable. In truth, one would relish the return of the Norsemen, Leeds need to be back on the big stage.
