Leicester v Leeds

[Conroysleftfoot]

Impressive start by Leeds. Leicester not looking quite as good as in previous games. Looks like they are struggling to cope with a Premier League like press.

[Quicknick]

Come on Leicester!

[The Shire Claret]

Wonder how we would have got on against these two last season

[kentonclaret]

Just illustrates what a weak division the Championship is, that a team that were runners up in Division One are currently 9 points clear in second place, and the three relegated clubs from the Pl fill 3 of the top 4 positions.

[Pickles]

I know it's a level below etc etc but there's a few players on that pitch who'd improve us.

[dougcollins]

Wonder how we would have got on against these two last season

That's the irony, we would have got on just fine.

[RVclaret]

Entertaining game so far. Two teams playing good footy. Leeds look vibrant.

[Quicknick]

Division 1 wasn't a weak league when Ipswich were promoted and won it in 1961/62, or when a promotion in third place for Nottm Forest was followed by winning the Divsion 1 title in 1977/78 with just three league defeats all season.

[kentonclaret]

Gnonto who was the subject of transfer interest from Everton, among others, doesn’t even make the Leeds starting 11.

Leicester getting Harry winks was a real coup. He’s a top player

[dougcollins]

Leeds are chasing down exactly as we did last season.

Why have we stopped that?

[Florian]

Drab nil nil

[Conroysleftfoot]

Leeds are chasing down exactly as we did last season.

Why have we stopped that?

The opposition are far better this year and move the ball alot quicker.

[FCBurnley]

Would we beat either of these ?

[Pickles]

Definitely. I think similar about Ampadu. Could've been the one to step into Cork's shoes.

[dougcollins]

The opposition are far better this year and move the ball alot quicker.

So what we're doing now is better?

I'd say stick to what you're good at.

[RVclaret]

£30m Rutter looking superb in the Champ. Looked a right plodder last season.

[Newcastleclaret93]

Definitely. I think similar about Ampadu. Could've been the one to step into Cork's shoes.

Harry winks would have been a great signing for us.

Not afraid to put his foot in but also excellent on the ball

[dougcollins]

Well that's been coming. Great pressing from Leeds.

[Lip]

Total domination from Dirty Leeds

[dougcollins]

Would we beat either of these ?

Last season, we'd have given either of them a very good game.

[Conroysleftfoot]

Harry winks would have been a great signing for us.

Not afraid to put his foot in but also excellent on the ball

Surely he's doing very similar to what Cullen did last season. Will be very interesting to see how he goes if/when they get promoted.

[dougcollins]

Leicester fans still have those clappy stick things. Do they get replenished each season?

[FCBurnley]

Last season, we'd have given either of them a very good game.

Last season we would have beaten both. With our current team I doubt it

[kentonclaret]

Drab nil nil

There are quite a few on here who would be happy with that score line tomorrow afternoon.

[kentonclaret]

Both of these clubs were able to retain a much stronger core of players with PL experience not needing a whole host of new additions and loan signings.

[CoolClaret]

Leeds are chasing down exactly as we did last season.

Why have we stopped that?

We didn’t the guy that was the quickest and best at it

[chekhov]

Well done Leeds, very impressive!

[CoolClaret]

[beddie]

Both have good goalkeepers. I’d be happy with either.

[warksclaret]

Just got back-a good game for the neutrals. Agree with posters on this thread-Winks has been a superb player and has a bit of steel about him. Leicester have two very good young fast wingers, but unlike ours have great end product. Vardy played very deep so they offered little through the middle. Fatawa their right winger will be one to watch if they get promoted

Got to say Leeds were brilliant-strong , physical and very quick and direct on the break. Their keeper only had one save to make-not bad as Leicester had won all but two league games.Keep an eye out for Hermansen the Leicester keeper-he is going to be very good-great with his feet, aerially and shot stopping
