David Kelly 1117 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Which one? "Marching On Together", or "We are champions, champions of Europe"? Be interesting if Shelvey is suspended or dropped for the Leeds game, will Rafa shift from 4-2-3-1 and put more emphasis on creativity from the flanks? or will he stick his preferred formation and pop Diame or Colback into Shelvey's role? Champions of Europe. If Colback replaces Shelvey we're going to have to look to the flanks for creativity because there will be none in the middle.

Howay 12452 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Aye I'd hope he would give Diame a chance to prove he has use there over just sticking Colback in, it more than likely will be Colback in there though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wykikitoon 16599 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Why is their site called that? I actually fancy a draw for this one. They're not in bad form and the internationals and a possible suspension for Shelvey could hurt us a bit. It's a wank chant they have. Hopefully we give them a stoving and then the Scousers do them in the cup mid-week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They chant that they're champions of Europe? Strange thing for a championship club who haven't been champions of Europe to sing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Carr's Gloves 3193 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 They chant that they're champions of Europe? Strange thing for a championship club who haven't been champions of Europe to sing. They did win the Fairs cup twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 They did win the Fairs cup twice. And we won it once. Neither of us have been champions of Europe though. There may have been as many good or better teams in the fairs cup then as there was in the European Cup but winning the latter is what would have made you champions of Europe.

The Fish 8987 Posted November 14, 2016 Author Share Posted November 14, 2016 Could the returning Ritchie play in the centre, With Atsu and Gouffran on the flanks? Or is he too lightweight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Has he ever played there? I don't like playing players out of position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 8987 Posted November 14, 2016 Author Share Posted November 14, 2016 Has he ever played there? I don't like playing players out of position. I don't like it either, but if the alternative is Anita or Colback trying to be the creative pivot in the centre... I mean, Anita is decent at fullback at this level because he understands the tactical role and he can run and disrupt an attack. But stick him in the centre and while he understands what is required, he just hasn't the passing range, technique or vision to really act as a playmaker. I guess I'd rather the creative side of the role be satisfied, rather than the comfort in the position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 It's got to be Diame for me but I wouldn't be surprised if it was Colback or Anita should it come to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Didn't we lose both games when we played Hayden and Colback together at the start of the season or did Shelvey come in for the game vs Huddersfield? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13834 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 They sing Champions of Europe because the ref utterly rinsed them in a European Cup final & they've never quite got over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 4963 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Thinking about it, I genuinely wouldn't mind seeing Leeds in the PL again. I've always expected them to come back up again and am surprised that they still haven't managed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26273 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Nah, it's funnier having them as an irrelevance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 4963 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Is it though? It's not like we even really care about this game now, is it? I don't... We may as well be playing Rotherham for all I care. I think that's a shame! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 14576 Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Am in attendance on Sunday, Leeds away will always be a big game for me, regardless of their perceived status (on the Internet?! ) Their record from mid 60s to the mid 70s coupled with their fuckin turbo nutter bastard supporters of that era means that they're still remembered with a shudder by lots of supporters and there's still the whiff of sulphur hanging around that club to this day iyam. First time I went was 89 (I think) the team warmed up in front of the traditional home end to show Vinny Jones and his mates that we weren't going to be intimidated by any fucker that day. Think we got a good away point but the less said about the end of that season the better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the game Jones was lifting weights as our players came out to 'intimidate' them and Budgie took the piss out of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may as well be playing Rotherham for all I care. I think that's a shame! I don't actively dislike them, I just don't like them. They've always seemed like a cuntish type of club and fan to me. I didn't like the way they behaved in the Risdale years and my opinion of them hasn't improved under the stewardship of Ken Bates and the latest lunatic. They seem desperate to be relevant to other clubs and that's why I find their current mediocrity to be amusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 26758 Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Budgie more or less said 'is that it?' Laughed then lifted it with one hand or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
