Leeds United - v - Hull City ***Matchday Thread***

[Dubbag]

LOL I think so butdon't take it personally mate.

Said before - for me if your lot and ours break away at the top, nto too worried about first or second in al honesty - either will do.... Just want to nick this one tonight to start that gap widening further.

Agree...and all other games are producing favorable results at the minute...

[WTF11]

Alioski again, and what a finish

[Tichi1]

Just want Preston to hang on now...Bristol and Forest dropping points - Fulham too would be brilliant... Cardiff home at the weekend - another possible banana skin...

11 points clear of 3rd place on the same games played, sound as a pound! Others said it when we played Dudds, fitness pays, and it did tonight. Well done every player. Phillips was immense, White ditto, Alioski did what Alioski does, Bamford was everywhere, Ayling back to something close to normal, Hernandez ditto, Harrison worked his b0ll9x off I just wish he would do the 1st touch cross occasionally and Casilla had next to f00k all to do, well done the defence!

I think I said a little while ago that for the first time in ages it's seems to be us getting the luck of the bounce, and that certainly seems to be true tonight. I'll take three points every single time of course however it comes, but that was a pretty disjointed effort, both our passing and close control was way off what it can be. I know we can't play amazing football every match, and maybe it's a bit of tiredness creeping in, but tonight wasn't vintage Bielsa Leeds.

We also seem to be more controlled in games. Great to see Struijk get his first cap. Wonder if Bielsa is blooding more youngsters now in case he needs to rely on then with the run of games coming up?

Any luck wer getting we deserve.
We've had 18 year of shyte luck.

Maybe not vintage, but every player contributed, the end result may not have always worked but the law of averages seems to be working in our favour!😉

Wonder if having Bates as Chairman has the same effect as shooting an albatross

Bamford one of our best defenders tonight - shame he didn't get on the scoresheet with one of his chances.

Allioski again looked fantastic coming off the bench - must be hard for him given that Costa's playing every game, but it's a great option to have either of them on the bench.

Really glad we got through that tonight - great Casilla save to stop the equaliser, and it was a tough game that last year we would have drawn or lost.
