I must confess to being a little concerned about this one. Leeds you’d think would be the least suitable team in the world, other than perhaps Athletico Madrid, to play a pre season ‘friendly’ against. I’ll just be pleased if they all come off in one piece and I’d say for fucks sake don’t play Bailey.

Probably not, but no doubt they'll have a few arrested before the game to thin the numbers out.

Raphina has joined Barcelona so at least he won't be involved. I think they are a lot weaker without him and Phillips. We will win this however many Leeds fans attend. And we've had the off Australian ourselves in our past.

So if any Australian Villa fans are going, Villa are hosting their fans at Darling and Co bar, 157 Given Terrace, Paddington (very close to the ground). Special guests including a Q & A with Chris Price.

It will probably be completely full of Leeds fans though.

He's already said the players aren't ready for more than 45 mins, so I'd expect to see at least 20 players used.  Maybe more, but I'd expect the core first-team squad to be getting at least a half each.

That was exactly my reaction too, cringe-worthy at the time (acknowledging his many other good points). Dean often seemed reluctant to rest and rotate. Whilst true that nobody collapsed and had to be stretchered off, equally, results went steadily downhill. Hopefully with 5 subs and a different crew in charge, this year we use our squad to its fullest.

I kept finding myself last season thinking we weren't fit enough as a team to play like we were trying to play. I think the manager thinks this too.
Title: Re: Dirty Leeds vs Aston Villa pre-season friendly
Post by: OCD on July 15, 2022, 11:36:44 AM
When he says they're only fit to play 45 minutes, he probably means they're only fit enough to play 45 minutes to the levels he expects, at a higher intensity.

In 20/21, I think the stats had us as one of the sides who ran the most yet in 21/22 (under Smith) we had dropped down to being one of the sides that ran the least. When Gerrard came in, this did increase but a full pre-season does give him chance to get them to the levels he wants.

(Kiwi here.) This is why NZer's flip out a bit when they visit Europe - our birds have been around so long they forgot how to fly, but people haven't. Oral history and some evidence has it possible a bit earlier, though the 'big' (ie. important) wave was probably no earlier than as you mentioned.

Either way those Polynesian sailors were mad f*ckers and/or crazy skilled.... sailing across the pacific just following stars and currents.

He saw the keeper moving at full speed towards the other side of the goal so went for the same corner again as the missed penalty. Still, there was a lot of a empty goal he could have tapped it into.

Title: Re: Dirty Leeds vs Aston Villa pre-season friendly
Post by: villadelph on July 17, 2022, 06:26:48 AM
We’ve got to get Bailey involved more. He can fly.

Kamara looks good. He can certainly ping a ball and seems to actually want to play DM.
Title: Re: Dirty Leeds vs Aston Villa pre-season friendly
Post by: Axl Rose on July 17, 2022, 06:28:38 AM
Ramsey seems to be playing deeper or wider? Can't seem to tell.

Luiz is the weak link for me. He's by no means a bad player-but where is his best position??
Title: Re: Dirty Leeds vs Aston Villa pre-season friendly
Post by: Rudy Can't Fail on July 17, 2022, 06:30:24 AM
I imagine both sides are glad to get to half time without any serious injuries, the ref hasn't a clue. Kamara looks the real deal, Bailey has impressed, the less said about Ollie, overall a mad first half where we missed two easy chances and a chance to calm the game down.
Title: Re: Dirty Leeds vs Aston Villa pre-season friendly
Post by: SaddVillan on July 17, 2022, 06:30:52 AM
Good to see that we're prepared to break down Leeds' attacking moves in their half with some judicious "mistimed" tackles - nothing nasty, but sufficient to stop them moving the ball and transitioning into attack.

Last season we were opened up far too easily when we lost the ball just inside the opposition half.
Title: Re: Dirty Leeds vs Aston Villa pre-season friendly
Post by: dicedlam on July 17, 2022, 06:33:36 AM

Title: Re: Dirty Leeds vs Aston Villa pre-season friendly
Post by: Dave P on July 17, 2022, 06:38:35 AM
I know it’s a friendly but a few things I’ve noticed today .

Kamara looks very good and every inch the player we’ve been missing. He’s not very big through.

Bailey and Coutinho looked sharp. Cash and Digne are getting forward well as always.

Negatives - Mings looks a bit shaky and is going on late which is a sign that he is too slow into tackles. He does hate Leeds though so it may be deliberate.

JJ looks a bit lost playing a bit wider with Luiz as an 8. Not sure Luiz is dynamic enough for our midfield. Hope I’m wrong.

We are playing very good stuff but there is no real pace in the team apart from Bailey. Leeds do look a lot faster than us.

We played better in the first half though. The second half midfield did not have much joy.

We were aggressive in both halves. Too early to tell if that was simply in response to how Leeds played or whether it's something we can come to expect this season. I hope it's the latter.

Watched it on YouTube. Very intense for a friendly so a good introduction for the new boys. Kamara looks class, great range of passing. McGinn really got himself involved after coming on. Promising signs from Leon and Carlos. Ollie a bit rusty, needs another season like his first to keep Ings and Archer at bay. Sanson good in parts but needs to toughen up. Overall some slick play in first half followed by a lot of desire in a scrappy second 45.

A good run out that makes me think we won’t be undercooked like at the start of last season.

40,918 and I’d say 60/40 Villa.

I’m watching on Leeds TV, you’d say 60/40 Leeds from this coverage

At the ground i was lucky enough to snare a box on the halfway line and it looked from the stand directly in front like we had far more, you could see it most when we scored. Pleasantly surprised by the overall turnout for both sides tbh.

Post by: OzVilla on July 17, 2022, 10:07:43 AM
Just got back. Thought we ran the show without putting them away. Looked very assured at the back and both Bailey and Buendia had strong games. Kamara will need time as he seemed a bit slow to the play at times but saw enough to think he’s going to be an upgrade. Thought Sanson looked good too. The pitch was tacky and a bit bobbly which didn’t help us much. We look a long way in front of Leeds though and our strength off the bench really showed. 2 or 3-0 wouldn’t have flattered us.

McGinn would’ve been sent packing in a PL game so fortunate with that one but the ref was iffy all game on some challenges.

I think it's fair to say that they didn't have a lot to brag about in that period but now they've had a bit of success, lets face it for them it's a lot of success, they have in many cases become almost as cunty as Man Utd fans.

It wasn’t a great tackle and the fact that the lad had gone through Buendia 5 mins before gave it an air of retribution.

Just been through the match and saved the tackle to video so could have a look.

They both swing for the ball at the same time, their feet come down together at speed, and McGinn’s foot comes down on Gray’s heel. It’s all pace and they’re both heading into each other, so it’s a bit clumsy and you can argue both players could have thought twice before sticking their boot in there.

I think a yellow is fair, wasn’t deliberate though, certainly wasn’t revenge because McGinn doesn’t even look up from the ball to see who it is. Could easily have been Gray’s foot land on McGinn’s too.

Yep, my thoughts. Always think it’s worth considering what you’d want if it was the other way round - McGinn fouled by the Leeds lad.  With that in mind, it’s definitely a foul. A yellow seems harsh, but arguably both players overstepped what was sensible/safe so … maybe. Nothing more than that, though - it’s a bit of a nothing tackle that’s, whilst a bit reckless, wasn’t malicious or especially bad.

Just watched it 3 or 4 times in a row. I can see how at normal pace seeing it once it might seem bad, slowed down, which is what VAR would do, its not actually a foul, he won the ball and hardly touched the man, no claret and blue specs on.

It's not McGinn's fault that the lad caught his studs in the ground.  Had it been as bad as some think, the players would have surrounded old fat arse to give him stick.  Plenty of people have also said it isn't a foul but I have claret and blue gigs on?  No mate, I have played the game and understand what an accident looks like.

Watching the game, two things stood out to me:

1) I just do not see the point of Luiz. I am not knocking his skill, but we know he is not a CDM and he looks nothing special as a more attack-minded midfielder. We are lacking dynamism in the middle of the pitch and it is a bit of a worry for me.

2) I like Watkins’ heart and desire to put in a shift, but he just is not good enough to take us where we want to go. I know that it is not easy to find clinical strikers (though we may well have one on our bench), but Watkins has proven to be a solid but unspectacular striker and I would scour the planet to find a better one (again, assuming that one is not right there waiting his turn).

Meatballs tackle didn't look too bad. Compare that with rmthe tackles on Emi and the attempted assault by Bampot on Diego Carlos. They were both a lot worse.

Marsch: Now Archie, what did you learn today?

Gray: That I'm better off with the U8's as I won't get hurt there.  Can I go back to them please Boss?

In all seriousness that's exactly my point - if he cannot take the physicality of the men's game should be kept well away.  Be interesting to know how clubs go around arranging insurance for youngster's they want to plant into the men's game.

his ankle got caught it happens doesn’t matter what age he is it’s gona hurt

Leeds fans on twitter are a special kind of bitter.

But, it was an unconventional challenge by McGinn and in the follow through he did stand / stamp on the kids ankle.  Not as bad as their fans make out but in my view probably not as inoccuous as ours suggest either.  Although I thought yellow was probably right, I could certainly see it being a VAR red.

I thought it was a typical McGinn use of the arse challenge, he caught him but it’s only getting any attention because he was up against a toddler.

Wow.  Talk about OTT

McGinn tackle on Leeds starlet Gray was cowardly and barbaric

DAVID COVERDALE

JULY 18, 2022

IT was an act of butchery more akin to the days when his grandfather played. Young Archie Gray must have seen footage from the 1970s, when his grandad Frank and great uncle Eddie won the title together with Don Revie’s ‘Dirty Leeds'.

But the 16-year-old has surely never been on the receiving end of a tackle that would have made even his older relatives wince. The barbaric challenge came from Aston Villa’s John McGinn in the second half of a pre-season friendly in Brisbane on Sunday. Yes, a ‘friendly’.

The Scot lunged in recklessly and late on Gray and stamped down on his right ankle, putting the Leeds lad on a stretcher and in tears. Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard claimed McGinn was ‘unlucky in the follow through’. Pull the other one. The strange way McGinn shaped up for his cowardly tackle - leaning back and turning away - suggested this was a pre-meditated attempt to hurt a teenager rather than a genuine attempt to win the ball.


Even the commentators correctly called it for what it was, an act of retribution, coming minutes after Gray’s own strong challenge on Villa’s Emiliano Buendia, for which he did win the ball but was booked. Of course, there is something to be said for sticking up for a team-mate. But McGinn must have a screw loose if he thinks this is the way to go about it.

Doing it in the Premier League would be bad enough, but in a match with nothing riding on it on the other side of the world? Unless McGinn cares more for the Queensland Champions Cup than we are giving him credit for, he needs to have a word with himself - and so do the authorities. The midfielder may have received a yellow card on the spot. But there is no doubt he should have been sent off and banned because nobody wants to see tackles like that in the modern game.

It was no wonder Leeds boss Jesse Marsch was so incensed on the sidelines, becoming embroiled in a heated exchanged with McGinn and later accusing referee Adam Kesey of losing control of the game. The only crumb of comfort for Marsch is that, on first inspection, Gray’s injury does not seem as serious as it so easily could have been.

‘We’re hopeful that it’s not too bad,’ said the American. ‘He was in some pain initially and when they assessed it after the match they’re hopeful nothing’s broken and that it’s just an ankle sprain.’ If that initial prognosis proves to be correct, Gray - and Leeds - will have had a lucky escape. For the midfielder is one of the most promising players to have come out of the club’s academy in years.

Despite his family being Scottish football royalty, Gray - whose dad Andy also played for Leeds - captained England under-16s to a tournament win in France earlier this year. He is yet to make his competitive first-team debut for Leeds but has been on the bench, earning a place in Marcelo Bielsa’s matchday squad against Arsenal last December when he was still only 15.

His selection for the tour Down Under suggests Gray is firmly in Marsch’s thinking going into the new Premier League season. It is just to be hoped his rapid progress is not stalled by a player 11 years his senior who should have known better.

I did see the full game yesterday evening via the link on here. I think we were good/showed promise. Olsen, Carlos and new DM from France showed that they can be outstanding. Luiz difficult to rate in that game, xlent technic and some superb getting out of no space with the ball and more but not really impose himself so much on the game totales? Had a closer look at Jacob Ramsey and was impressed with his workrate and did seem to do en xlent job defensively also good going forward with the ball and play with his teammates. Dosent sit well with McGinn to not be selected to start a game I think, as usual gave his all when came on if not more, he was good. Ings was at it. Watkins as before,  his not so best to finish but with his workrate and speed he is almost a one man attack so valueable. I try not to bother with Leeds :) . Interesting season ahead.

I have looked at it a few times and I think it was a bad tackle. Only SJM will really know how much intent there was, if you slow it down it looks like there is still down force on the tackling foot as he makes contact with the player.
Is it as bad as the article above? No. But it wasn’t great and it could easily be a VAR red.

In the beginning the Leeds player s foot where planted om the grass, then Mc ginn s foot came on it from above with some force, kind of a stamp. Free kick an yellow card not totaly wrong either.

Yes, he purposely put his foot down, not to stop himself as he collided with another person, but solely out of malice. I can’t understand why he didn’t just dissipate his momentum into the ether like many on here would have done, or perhaps phased the molecules in his leg to pass harmlessly through solid objects.

The Neil Taylor challenge was on a different stratosphere in terms of filth. McGinn's was a little naughty in terms of leaving one on an opponent but  he didn't really fly in there (as he can do on occasion).

Whilst they may not be in the pantheon of some past Leeds sides, there’s no doubt that the current crop  thrive on an aggressive approach with some sh*thouseary thrown in (see Bamford and that lad that did a Rivaldo to try and avoid the second penalty just in this game alone). Their fans love it. They want their team doing it. Villa under Gerrard respond aggressively and the clutching of pearls is laughable. Nobody wants to see a young lad get hurt but in the context of the game at close to an hour, was it really sensible of Ted Laso to bring him on in the first place? And further, which team is setting the tone for that environment -with some help from the officials and the player himself-because a lot of us see Villa most weeks and we know what the norm is.

It was a great weekend mate. I got home to NZ very late last night and I am still buzzing. I did not expect that level of support for Villa, there were far more Villa fans than Leeds.
