PL 2021/22 Season

I actually think if you set up to try to get a nil all against City, then it will get you nowhere....

I think Leeds will have to keep it tight alright but then counter aggressively.

I think they've a better chance playing for a point than going tow to toe and making the game open

Pep has a magma chamber that's about to explode and cracked his skull open, you can see the big vein throbbing as he tries to display outward calm...

Twice...

His is going to go full keegan before the end of the season

I agree with this but the problem is, to get that point, they’ll need to score at least one because they’re sure as hell not shutting City out. So sitting back isn’t the way to go, they do need to defend well of course but they need to have periods of attacking threat themselves, and the intention to do so.

Liklihood of City scoring increases the more Leeds venture forward. I'm hoping that the Palace match was a blueprint for tactics for the remainder of the season.

I'm glad Leeds have something to play for, to focus on and you've just got to live in hope

Pep uses anything he can to cement a siege mentality, its how he motivates his players. Look at the ****e that comes from the likes of Bernado, Sterling, Walker, Kompany etc. And that song on the plane. Spiteful team from a spiteful manager.

[Norbs]

Yep, definitely a snidey bunch You don't see many smiles when they play, we're the smilers and they're the sneerers

[Rigadon]

C'MON Leeds!!! You CAN beat City.

[Corndog]

If city are to drop points, this may be the best chance with Leeds not safe from relegation and the Real Madrid game very much still alive on Wednesday away in Spain…

C'MON Leeds!!! You CAN beat City.

Come on Burnley first

Burnley win puts them above Leeds which hopefully wakes Leeds up a bit and focuses them on the battle

And further ****s Everton up

City failed to beat Leeds in both PL games last season. A draw at Elland Rd and a 10-man Leeds victory at Emptyihad.

Could be a bogey team and this is definitely a banana skin for City today.

PS. I know City battered them at home this season but was when everyone was beating Leeds under Bielsa

[Norbs]

Burnley with a late equaliser, keeps the pressure on Everton and Leeds

[Norbs]

Get the **** in!

Burnley ahead and leapfrog Leeds tonight

[Montana]

Everton 5 pts adrift now!

You were absolutely right that Leeds attacking is a better tactic. City look rattled. Wish they'd done this from the start
