    4-3-3 AND no Bartley !

    So much better in all areas. Additionally there was a much better team spirit evident...not unrelated to the absence of Bartley perhaps?
    I didn’t think Moore (post match interview) made enough of the success of the 4-3-3 in preference to the previous 3-5-2 debacles. I do hope he doesn’t give way and continues with the undoubted preferred formation...by fans and players alike !

    He'd have to be very foolish to tamper with that back 4 now Prando and he must persist in the bbb (banish Brunt Bartley) policy.

    If Tosin can keep up those performances at Rb we only need a box to box as an essential purchase in Jan but I would prefer another ch and another striker.

    Great result and buzzing after putting that apparently great Leeds side to the sword.

    I was s hitting myself about the vile game, not now though.

    COYB.

    Indeed Tosin had his best game. Seemed much more composed. Gibbs is a class act and the Dawson Hegasi partnership is improving.
    I suspect that most fans (I certainly was) were disappointed to see Kanu start....what do we know ��
    Mozza would not have been my choice, but again he did ok. I think I’d have subbed him for Barry when we went 2-0.
    As you say, great to walk out of the ground after that performance.

    If we would have had that formation from the off we would be points clear now , looked like a defence looked like a midfield looked a proper team , great atmosphere tonight as well , very good performance, as said above no Bartley no Brunt , its easy this football management.

    Hi Prando, I thought Morrison showed what we have been missing and that's a midfielder with forward thinking nous. Decent midfield today. Bartley made the biggest contribution to the result. and Kanu was my man of the match causing Leeds no end of problems...a goal...free kicks in very dangerous areas and a possible penalty. He really put himself about. That goal was no easy shot either.
