Just seen this on google while I was trying to decide on a decent LUFC tattoo for my b'day, I think it should be painted on the tunnel walls so teams know who they're trying to mess with ;) We are the outcast, the banished, the shunned, the cheated, the punished, the feared. The loathsome downtrodden whom nobody loves, but, with reviled comes revered. We're your cup final, your dreams in our hands, we're United in every way. We'll never be beaten, no matter how damned, we're a team you don't meet everyday . WE ARE LEEDS

"We are Leeds" would just about fit mine. Small font of course. I could always try W.A.L.

Have a feeling Beradi may be on the bench for when Ayling comes back. Very harsh I'd say but a distinct possibility. What do we think of that lads?

I don't think its fair to be honest. Great professional. Always 100%, passionate. I like ayling too. i'd leave pontus out. He is showing opposite to beradi since contract.

Berardi one of the first on team sheet for me

Ayling should have to earn his place back. Taylor and Berardi for me.

I think it's great that we are in a position to have this debate - both great and both done us proud. I am sure who ever he goes with, then they will put in a shift. Personal oppinion, I don't think he will pull Berradi just yet, Pontus will be back on and Ayling will be eased back in for a full game against Newcastle (even with the break) . He might even stick with what he has and continue to protect Pontus for Newcastle too. Whatever, I just want to keep putting in good performance and clocking up the points. Life is good - life is Leeds MOT

Just a thought about Sacko. Like Henry, Kewell, Walcott, Ronaldo and now Bale, does anyone else agree with me to maybe giving him a try up front with Wood? He's got a good shot on him, no need to cross (or even know when to cross! ) just shoot on sight and would still scare defenders even more coming through the middle. I'd try this in the last 20 mins in games where it looks like we've won to save experimenting from the start with an unproven system. Or is it just me trying to alleviate the boredom of the international break and come up with an even more nonsense post?

I think it could definitely work mate, he would scare cbs with his pace and trickery

Good idea. I am a great one for trying players with certain skills in different positions ever since we took a cast off winger and turned him into one of the greatest midfielder, of my generation - Johnny Giles. Similarily with talk of Sam Byram, certainly I would look at taking him back but no room at the back. He would have to play in midfield?

Lucas, when did we last have a game that we new we already won with 20 minutes to go? 🐒😜

A lot of theories ref Pontus have been posted. When I saw the team sheet I thought that maybe GM was protecting his squad and with the yellow card count building then perhaps it was a gamble worth taking by virtue that he was on the bench if it went horribly wrong! In addition, I think that the Berradi, Ayling, Barkley and Taylor back four could be the key to a more attacking side - I would really like to see us getting the ball forward quicker - too much passing around in front of goal for my liking.

So it's Pontus fault we don't get the ball forward quickly enough? And there's me blaming Mr pass backward Bridcutt!

Not sure I said that 🙄 In addition as in another point - I don't think it's a bad option or line up🤔 But thanks anyway👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Peacock. You may be right re pontus though. In my recollection. On his day inspirational but he would be the most defensive minded.

Mad how some fans now want Jansson dropped. He's been the catalyst for our revival.

Not sure people want him dropped, I think we now have a few more options, it's banter, debate and food for thought. We need options with the yellow card count and if we pick up injuries. Personally I think it keeps opposition guessing and is healthy. But that's just my oppinion😀

Its about attitude. I never said drop him cause of any other reason than seems to have a problem and his form since signing has been questionable. He has been fantastic for us but so has lorimer and he's being rested for wood at the moment. Dosent hurt to have think time on the bench!

I'd rather he got two more yellows now then get one in the first leg of the playoffs and then be ruled out.

I'm bored of this international break already. I think it may have just come at the wrong time for us and would have liked to push on from the Brighton game as soon as possible. Hopefully the lads will be rested, confident and raring to go come April fools day.

Well Hess, I would tend to disagree, teams such as Brighton, Huddersfield and Wednesday will be desperate to make up for their last match defeats but will have to stew for 2 weeks. We can have a nice chill knowing we are on a roll and have momentum. Lovely

Pity is it gives Brighton defenders chance to get fit. Think they would have struggled if they had to play this wed and sat. as you say bad timing.

I remember monk saying in pre season that he knows how to peak a team, hopefully that will prove to be correct over the next few weeks. Us hitting form at just the right time whilst others around us are faultering. Agreed this international break may have come at the wrong time, we hardly ever seem to get moving again for a few games after. Still believe 2nd place is up for grabs though, Brighton and the Labrador lovers must be looking over their shoulders big time now with a little more worry. MOT
