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

[b-rad]

Same team as finished last season, but with KDH in for Harrison.

Though will be interesting to see which bench Harrison is sitting on by then.

1-1

Ashley Young still with us?

Ashley Young still with us?

If only…
O’Brien will have to play out of position again with Garner helping out which takes his focus off the midfield.

Ashley Young still with us?

Mad thing is, if he was he'd be playing left back against Leeds!

 

[Cameron Manning]

I watched Leeds' last friendly and it's that Stach fella we need to keep an eye on. Everything went through him.

Let's make it a no Stach August!

Some diarrhoea tablets might fix him!

Ashley Young still with us?

He's a tractor boy now.

A slender 0-1 for the blues

KDH with the winner

Too early for this. It was 27.5c in Cork today and more sunshine to be had.
But alas, nearly time to dust off the indoor esky and settle in for the winter, with hopefully a trip across the pond.

Interesting to see what Moyes does at left back. Reckon it'll be the new fella. If he wins perfect choice, if not it sends another statement to the Americans.

Anway, COYB! Time to turn the last few seasons on its head.

Do youse reckon Jack Grealish is fit enough to play vs Leeds. Word has it he had his own pre-season with a personal trainer but I doubt it is the same with training with his teammates.

He'll play some of it, presumably he'll had at least 4 training sessions and it's not like he's an unknown quantity.

Hope he starts, but think it might be a 30 min cameo for first game.

Barry starts for me. Need to get him used to the Premier League as quickly as possible and the only way to do that is play him. We’ve invested nearly 30 million in him so chuck him in and let’s see what he can do.

We also paid nearly £30 million for Beto. I'm optimistic both our strikers will thrive with the players we have behind them now. For the first time in ages, we've got several players who can play a through ball into feet.

 

[Ian]

Head says 2-0 us.
Heart says 2-2.

Other way round?

 

[Woolverhampton_Blue]

Would love to welcome them back to the big time with an epic beat down, but think it will be a 2-2 score draw.
