Leeds United - v - Chelsea ***Matchday Thread***

[WTF11]

Ok I lied a bit more.......super f00king LUFC, not a single poor performance and the work rate was as good as Bielsa got, ever

but watch out for Palace and Brighton

[fredlufc74]

All these ****e pundits going on about how we sold our best two players and we'll go down. Just shows what them F**k knuckles know about football.

Watched the game in the middle of a load of Chelsea supporters and even they said we look a team who can finish top ten.

Early days but these no mark pundits are so full of their own importants it is unreal. Half of them did nowt when playing. So up your arses f**kwits.

Oh say can you see, by the dawns early lights............................................ ......

Aaronson is amazing, tyler Adams pretty amazing as wel.

Ps Rodders is top scorer atm.

Fred, I had a feeling we would get something out of this game, same as I had about relegation last time out.
I never take any notice of the so called professionals on tv. I watched Aaronson with the States team and liked how he moved and his vision, he will triple his status/value with us. Others too will benefit with how things are shaping up. I believe this.

What I see with this team is everyone is giving it all, JM wanted that type of player (I believe). I also believe we have some remarkable skillful young players almost ready to be unleashed this next 12-18 month. Maybe a little ways away from world beaters but a team who will not be a push over or one looking over our shoulders. After all the years we’ve had I also believe this next few are going to be great for being a LUFC supporter.

Can’t wait to see a fully fit Sinisterra too

I must admit yesterday was exceedingly good

I must admit yesterday was exceedingly good

Like Mr Kipling's cakes or if Carlsberg did Sundays.

Unexpected wins against certain teams are all the more enjoyable for it - wins against Chelsea no matter where they sit in the food chain are always good but given their resources - unbelievable Jeff!

For me the whole team are playing well at the moment - Meslierre is very under rated - needs a pay rise to keep the big boys at bay...
Stuijk did really well again yesterday, Koch and Llorrente look like the players we thought we where getting - and playing in their correct positions - Coops will struggle to get back in if this form continues, Adams looks like a real find - at least as good as Philips on current form, Roca too, Harrison and Rodders both hugely improved under JM and Aaronsen looks like the buy of the season, Dan James..... well his harrying of the opposition and sheer work rate - coupled with the odd flash of skill makes him safe in the side until either Bamford returns or Sinesterra is fully fit, but it would be churlish to single the lad out.

Great performance, great team ethic, at least as good as what we saw the year before last , but not getting carried away just yet - it's a long hard season, injuries and suspensions will take a toll - but a huge improvement on last season -

Oh, and to be able to enjoy the games without the resident moaning cnut just adds to the enjoyment

ps - Rodrigo is shyte???? - top scorer so far in the prem!

pps - Missed Kristensen - not sure yet, looks pretty good but seems to get caught out of position especially early on in games, but fits into the system well, is good in the air and I think needs a few more games.

I was down down in God's country welding on a trailer with a friend and the final score notification popped up (the only notice I get). I actually shut down the unit (friend was not happy) to go look to see if I had gotten a wrong score.

Watched the game later in the day. Pretty incredible. Cherry had said how good Aaronson is and he's spot on. The whole midfield looks incredible. Rod missed a shot early on in the game by a couple of feet or he'd have had a brace. He looks good and confident.


I think kristensen is one of those big strapping backs that if kept under control is going to be really good. Kind of reminds me of a big version of Alioski. wish I felt the same about Firpo but think that Strujik is staring to get better at Left Back. Not nearly as stressed about that position as I was a week ago.

It's fun to watch us again. Last year was very painful. we might not go to Europe but I'd watch us play over just about any team in the prem if I was a neutral!

Think it's safe to say we won't be in a relegation battle this year.

Tell ya mate………spread da faith. The message is out!
