Leeds United vs Aston Villa Match Thread

[Toronto Villa]

Grealish for Gestede would be my call, Kodjia in the middle. Need a spark

We certainly need something up front. Oh and Happy Birthday, TV.

Thank you sir. Yes the bits I have caught it seems all very agricultural. I wonder if that is in a lot of ways to do with playing Gestede. We need a bit of quality to unlock this game. We seem to playing to Leeds standard and not emphasizing our own strengths which should help separate us from them.

The 25 mins I saw was awful. One decent move for both sides, and then just garbage and fouls. If either side steps up a gear they'll piss this.

Jedinak MoM so far.

Happy birthday TV

Anyone know what the offending Savile chant is? Not sure why I care!

Ayew for Gestede, move Kodjia center and Ayew left.

Bacuna for Westwood.
Grealish for Gardner.

[Percy McCarthy]

Awful so far.

Us: Jimmy Savile, he's one of your own
Them: Jimmy Savile, he's friends with Steve Bruce (is what it sounded like to me)

We seem to be creating better openings.

They missed the two best chances in the game, one a sitter really

We are having joy pressing them alright, keep forcing turnovers in their half but don't have the quality on the pitch to take advantage

Both chances came from set pieces and they haven't really caused us any problems apart from that.  We've been desperately short of quality going forward though and Gardner and Westwood are so one dimensional.

[Matt Collins]

We look solid though set pieces are a risk.

The quality of the game is terrible though. We're well away from being able to compete in the premier league

Gardner had our best chance from a FORWARD Westwood pass but his first touch was terrible

Gestede winning a few flick ons but not much else

You can probably tell who I'd fetch off for ayew and grealish before too long

[Percy McCarthy]

Overheard conversations in the Lord Clifden include people reminiscing about the worst games they've ever seen.

Ta. The usual level of sophisticated ribaldry.

[saunders_heroes]

Excellent first half. Organised and professional all through the team.

Agreed. Crap game but we've bossed it in their own back yard.

[Gregorys Boy]

Think we've done pretty well overall.  Think I would bring on a bit of pace so that we can break quicker and maybe create a bit more.  But we've looked solid, have worked hard and restricted them to very few chances.  Would be pleased if it ended this way.

We have 4 of our better players sitting in the bench
