KeiranShikari 1,524 Posted December 15, 2018 They do the basics well which will take them a long way this season, also have some real matchwinners coming back from injury. As much as it would be fun to watch I can't see them slipping out of the top 6. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KeiranShikari 1,524 Posted December 15, 2018 I've seen quite a few Leeds games this season. This match is tough because Bolton have 11 men behind the ball. Only a matter of time before Leeds break through imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ron obvious 1,711 Posted December 15, 2018 They've not strung 2 passes together. Very little better than Bolton in football terms. Like a lot of teams, they rely on one or two decent moments to squeeze a win. We're streets ahead of the lot - in footballing terms Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lake district canary 4,823 Posted December 15, 2018 Guy on Sky Sports just said Leeds are "back" on top. Have they been top before this season then? Can't remember it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are better defensively but you are better in midfield (except for Hernandez 😉 ) Both teams have different strengths to their game.

crispeduk 282 Posted December 15, 2018 That's funny, I get the feeling to get automatic promotion Leeds are going to have to at least match us week in week out, but hey ho, it doesn't matter what they do as far as I'm concerned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You need to pull your socks up in defence if you are aiming for that. You are great getting goals in the last 15 mins but you cant rely on those. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,902 Posted December 15, 2018 So what minutes can teams score in that are more reliable than the last 15? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crispeduk 282 Posted December 15, 2018 My Dad was from up the Dales and I used to watch Leeds when they were proper Yorkshire, back in the early 60s, this lot have a way to go to measure up, whereas I’m struggling to recall a more exciting time since the days of Ron Saunders to be a City supporter. But I’m not interested in an illiterate whiney argument and fortunately this message board now has the facility for users to disinfect it. So, Bob Whites, no need to bite back, I won’t be listening, because what you say is not interesting, nor is your club. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im talking about the two games where you scored the last minute winner. Bolton are a terrible team that cant really score many at all but for some reason they got 2 past you. If you are going to fly through this division you shouldn't be letting teams like Bolton score 2 goals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JF 694 Posted December 16, 2018 (edited) Ah the myth that a goal scored in the final minutes is somehow less deserving and worthy than a goal scored in the first 5 minutes. Maybe something that FIFA can look into, A cut off point of 85 minutes for a real goal. Any goals scored after 85 minutes only count as half a goal, at this point 2 half goals will only count as one full goal. Goals conceded against teams that are struggling at the lower end of the table devalue the victory and therefore the higher placed team has to win by two clear goals scored between the minutes of 25-75 to claim the full 3 points.
