Barkley dropped and Ramsey starting. Both good decisions I think.

Starting to have some more positive vibes abut this one now.

Glad to see Ramsey get his chance. Elmo Vs Raphinha makes me nervous, could've done with Trezeguet in front of him with Traore meandering.
Title: Re: Leeds vs Aston Villa match thread
Post by: Bobby Boy on February 27, 2021, 04:45:39 PM
I'm pretty happy with that selection. We've got to try to match Leeds physically and Nakamba and Ramsey will help with that.

Leeds defensively are suspect so over to you Traore, El Ghazi and Watkins.

Come on fellas!

I dreamt we had a pen in the 10th minute. Mings took it, and missed.

Post by: Smithy on February 27, 2021, 04:46:02 PM
Well, it'll put an end to the "he always starts the same 11 when fit" arguments!  I also like that we've got some genuine quality on the bench to call upon.

Brave to start Ramsey against this lot, but I suspect his youthful energy will come in handy in the middle of the park.

Glad Barkley dropped, need a shift from AEG to have any chance.

Post by: exigo on February 27, 2021, 04:48:35 PM
Better looking starting eleven, even though I'd have brought in Sanson as well.
Leeds will hound us for everything, so also good to think about how much stronger the options off the bench after an hour will be.
Title: Re: Leeds vs Aston Villa match thread
Post by: Rigadon on February 27, 2021, 04:48:42 PM
Barkley can't have any complaints being dropped and Luiz has looked like a player who needed resting.  It's a brave team selection though, so I hope it doesn't backfire.
Title: Re: Leeds vs Aston Villa match thread
Post by: eamonn on February 27, 2021, 04:50:15 PM
Jacob and Marv will run and harry like dogs, it's the right call.

Toronto Villan switching off to his private life means a ten minute wait for a match thread. Maybe it's the new orange dot...

Glad to see Ramsey get his chance. Elmo Vs Raphinha makes me nervous, could've done with Trezeguet in front of him with Traore meandering.

I guess Dean sees the goals from Traore and even though he has improved in helping out defensively, he's no Trez.
The same could be said for the other side of the pitch, El Ghazi has scored a few and has been known when not standing on the touchline, to occasionally help out. Plus, it's impossible for El Ghazi to be as poor as his last performance.
Title: Re: Leeds vs Aston Villa match thread
Post by: brontebilly on February 27, 2021, 04:54:20 PM
Happy enough with that team selection. Luiz and Barkley can have no complaints. Big chance for Ramsey, thought Sanson would have been the call there but Ramsey brings plenty of mobility. Big show of faith in AEG but I'm glad it's not Trez on left wing.
Title: Re: Leeds vs Aston Villa match thread
Post by: RamboandBruno on February 27, 2021, 04:57:38 PM
It’s the right decision to drop Barkley for me, hopefully stop some of smith and weak management malarkey whatever the result. I would of had had Trez instead of el Ghazi and Sanson for Ramsey, but horses for courses. Just hope we give them a game
Title: Re: Leeds vs Aston Villa match thread
Post by: aj2k77 on February 27, 2021, 04:58:57 PM
Yep, even though the midfield looks considerably poorer with Nakamba, Ramsey and El Ghazi in it, almost Championship like, it sends a message out and Luiz and Barkley have been very poor for the last 5 or so games.

We have to start better today ands match their aggression and movement.  Leeds will be instructed to run us down, chase everything.  If we match that, we can beat them.

Dean sent out the message in his pre game interview when he said he had left out Luiz and Barkley because he wanted "more energy". In Barkley's case after his last game you could translate more energy into "more effort".
Title: Re: Leeds vs Aston Villa match thread
Post by: Bobby Boy on February 27, 2021, 05:13:07 PM
I have a feeling that John McGinn is going to score today.
Title: Re: Leeds vs Aston Villa match thread
Post by: eamonn on February 27, 2021, 05:14:00 PM
They may be getting Sanson used to the pace of the game here and not want to put too much pressure on him yet.
Title: Re: Leeds vs Aston Villa match thread
Post by: Abbeyfealeavfc on February 27, 2021, 05:18:11 PM
Barkley and luiz can have no complaints. Good luck to the 2 lads coming in. I can see Villa playing with 1dcm with McGinn and Ramsey playing further forward (Nakamba playing closer to the cbs and providing more support to them).
For me Sanson needs to come on ahead of Barkley, but if Ross comes on I hope he makes a difference and gets a goal. UTV!

Excellent first half. The changes have improved us. Nakamba in particular has been excellent. Having someone snapping into tackles and disrupting the opposition attacks is something we've lacked recently.

Raphinha is a threat but that was very good from us.

Probably the best we've started a game for about three months, sensational.

Since then Leeds have started playing through us a bit and we've been more content to hit long. Think there's another goal in this for us, probably need one to get three points.

Overall the long called for changes have been a big success so far. Nakamba excellent, Jacob neat and tidy, just needs a bit composure but that will come.

Game has totally passed Traore by. Trez is the obvious change alright but maybe Davis up top and Watkins on right. Leeds are leaving a lot of space behind their full backs at times.

Delighted with the attitude of the players and their application without the ball. AEG looks very sharp and looks a good bet for a second. Nakamba in particular has caught the eye.

As others have said, the pitch is a cabbage patch.

There was a passage of play just after half-hour, where Targett played a free-kick up to Mings, who lost it and fell on his arse, leading to a Leeds break - at their usual pace of such things.  Jacob tracked the guy with the ball thirty yards, from about five yards back, to tackle and get the ball out of play, allowing everyone to reset.  Not a very glamorous piece of play, but had me punching the air - proper effort, and recognising his responsibility to the team.

I know it's unfair, but I couldn't help thinking it was a run Barkley would not have made.

I can understand that sub, what's interesting is that it's Sanson ahead of Barkley.

What on earth has happened in this second half to justify 5 minutes added time?
Title: Re: Leeds vs Aston Villa match thread

Five added minutes. Martinez is struggling, I hope it isn't serious.

I reckon teams should be allowed one free slap on Bamford every game, maybe he'd shut the fuck up moaning at the ref constantly then.

brilliant trez got us up the pitch there

It was exactly the sort of thing Jack does for us, Anwar did it a couple of times too, almost like they're capable of it, but don't try when Jack plays?  Either way, a very useful cameo - well done Trez!

The commentators seemed desperate for Targett to get a second yellow, but not Klich for some reason.
