Match Thread Leeds 1-0 Everton, Mon 18 Aug, 8.00pm

[BainesontoastNEW]

Would love Moyes to use Garner like Hurzeler used Hinshelwood at RB for Brighton last season. Weiffer this pre-season, too.

He probably doesn't give a toss what Hurzeler is up to, but it's an option that would suit our personnel and mean we wouldn't have to play Keane.

I've got a ticket in the home end.... wish me luck.

Wish you luck as we wave you goodbye

You will be ok mate as long as you don't jump up if we score.
I was in the Leeds end the year Rooney scored and we won 1-0.

 

[chippy1722]

A comfortable win as long as whoever i upfront has learned how to hit it on target.
Branthwaite was never gonna start anyway, with no pre-season behind him.

 

[Davideeyore]

3-1 to Leeds with Branthwaite and Myko injured. Our defence is going to be shocking and they’ll be right up for it being their first game back in the PL

Kinell

Did you not watch the last game of the season?

Make peace with it now, Micheal Keane is going to play. I suspect Seamus will probably play left-back instead of Aznou too.

Grealish likely to start from the bench too given his lack of minutes in pre-season.

I did - I also watched our whole pre season

So if I've got this right, we've already lost this as we're going in with half a defence, no right hand side and our ex-players scoring all the goals?

 

[Goodison87]

Narrow 2-1 win for the blues, think he’ll go three at the back now with O’Brien, Tarks and Keane. Might see 15 mins of Grealish at the end to see them off.

I thought that too, but the transfer window thread is depressing me

don’t go in it!

Sound advice

 

[jonnyg]

Likely we'll see McNeil and Garner as wingbacks the next few games, Moyes was testing it out during preseason.

Playing with all 3 remaining CBs is risky. Coleman if played in the 3 is too weak in the air/back post.

Think Grealish needs to start at Leeds and hope we score 2-3 early instead of trying to soak up pressure.

This post annoyed me because it will 100% happen.
