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

So are we Farke in or Farke out 👀

Well deserved 3 points with superb effort from the whole team.

Fair play to Farke he changed the tactics and made subs for him fairly early.

Be interesting to see how he sets up against the Pool as they are wobbling a bit.

The squad available today were no radical change from the start of the season, we showed (albeit against a relatively poor Wolves side), what high press and energetic attacking can (and should) do. Yet for most of the season, apart from the last 135 played minutes, we have played possession-centric, lateral/backward passing, single attacker tactics against teams both high and low profile.

I am genuinely elated to see a Leeds team playing how they should, taking the match to the opposition and enjoying the freedom to attack, take chances, threaten the opposing players, and do so with a physicality that tells them they are in fight without breaking too many legs.

Why has Farke taken so long to develop the trust in his players that is essential if they are going to give of their best to him and the club?

This performance, and the second half against Schitty, MUST NOT BE "flashes in the pan".

I am very glad to be wrong on my prediction and elated we beat them straight up

It would great if we mixed up tactics occasionally to make it harder to prepare for us

My only negative is how long some of the players can last at this work rate. Gudmunssen, DCL, Nmencha, Stach, Ampadu, Tanaka left it all in the pitch.

Ps- best ref we have had in years. Why can?t more PL officials be that good?

Delighted to be wrong. Fabulous effort
