Nice one Batty, always liked the lad, it just took a while for him to get into being a fullback. Now that he has, he's giving it a good go :)

Agree2 Disagree0

02 Dec 2018 08:21:19
He has been a real servant to the cause this year and is definitely growing in confidence. It’s this kind of performance that makes the difference to the results.

02 Dec 2018 09:20:25
Find it strange with the Dallas haters that this guy never seems to moan about being a squad player and always gives it a go even being played out of position. Yes he isn't the most talented player in our squad a bit like Berardi who many seem to hero worship. Dallas is doing what is asked of him by Bielsa, didn't hear much criticism for the winning goal he scored against Reading.

Agree1 Disagree0

02 Dec 2018 09:58:12
Battymatty, in my opinion the answer to your question is No, if our manager thinks he should be in the team as others are it’s should be good enough for us.

02 Dec 2018 11:48:30
Think that's the first time I've agreed with you Whiteman.

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Dec 2018 14:04:20
Not going to change my opinion of him because of two good games. Not a hater as you put it but do not think he is anything above average. He puts a lot of effort in but as a winger creates very little and he is def not a full back though he is grafting for the team. Always said he is a good squad player. Maybe he will grow into the full back role if he does i will be first to praise him.

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Dec 2018 14:44:49
Martyn. You’re right! My first time too! Well said Whiteman!

02 Dec 2018 16:21:20
Yes Dallas stands out nowhere but maybe there's a lot to be said for just being solid and reliable wherever you're put.

02 Dec 2018 17:35:49
In fact, 29th minute, a cheeky little back heel 1-2, turn, and perfect cross across the face of the goal which was dying for a tap in from a Chapman type striker summed him up yesterday. I thought he was VERY good!

So how many of us in June would have thought that on December 1st we will go away to Sheffield United win 1-0 and that will take us top of the Championship. That we will win that game without Ayling, Berardi and Cooper, Saiz not featuring and with our 10 million pound striker out injured. No loan players playing and Clarke, Shackleton, Halme, Peacock-Farrell in the line up and KP playing in a back 3.
No me neither, Bielsa is quite simply a different class.

Well said Will . I’ve mentioned the Leicester example a few times during the year. Aside from their stars they had some more journeymen players that played out of their skin that year. I feel that we have that opportunity this year, a charismatic, motivational manager, strong coaching team, a handful of stars, a group of dedicated, professional and hardworking players, emerging youth. If Leicester could do it in the Premiership, we can do it in the Championship.

As well as the nasty tackling, lots of shirt pulling today, to be fair we joined in by the end, but that's what's going to happen if the refs don't deal with it. Clear examples on Pontus and Clarke. Accept that it's very hard to clamp down on the subtle side of it but some of them today were so obvious it was like the shirts were hanging out on the washing line! There must be fingerprint evidence on the shirts!

But he did manage to book Roofe for turning away to avoid a potentially damaging clash.

02 Dec 2018 08:15:25
After the hype about Sheffield, I was disappointed with them yesterday, they had a good spell where they were playing well with the ball and using their center backs in imaginative ways, but they had a nasty edge that got worse as we got into the game. Possibly why Bielsa kept Saiz away from the fray, to avoid a kicking and his temper boiling over!

Agree2 Disagree0

02 Dec 2018 14:48:43
I was thinking the same regarding shirt pulling Spanish. I think we should switch shirt materials to something mega, mega stretchy, so that if someone pulls it, it doesn’t even affect the body movement of the player, so I mean MEGA stretchy!

01 Dec 2018 20:50:38
Magic man bielsa, takes a big knock like the w. brom result then gets 3 wins and 3 clean sheets in response.
This game could've been similar to west Brom, SU were obviousmy told to give us a physical test.
Bielsa got the team to cope with that. can see why SU are doing well, organised and direct. we more than coped and the quality football was played by us. don't underestimate our injuries and our young lads thrown in to the toughest league going.
Testament to magic man, his coaches, the owner and his crew. never forgetting the greatest fans in the land.

The way our young'uns fronted was indeed impressive. They had the blowtorch on the y-fronts but were not daunted. Bielsa had confidence in them which bred confidence in themselves. This comes from what they cover in training meetings and on the training paddock. None of this comes into play by accident. Bielsa is smart, methodical and inspiring.

Serious question guys, does the EFL now review the Mcgoldrick assault on Klich retrospectively or as the guy pretending to be a referee never booked him, they can't take any action? Strange how their manager hasn't commented on it but would be screaming about it if one of the Leeds players had done it to his player.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

01 Dec 2018 20:13:07
It was a shocking leg breaking tackle and the Referee was right next to it. He was awful for us today, and that makes it an even better win. And well done to KP on his MOM performance.

Agree1 Disagree0

01 Dec 2018 20:51:45
Meezzer, You must be used to the fact that, the majority of ref's, apply the rules of the game against Leeds when ever they can. I love it, the more they do to defeat us, we can still win. I feel sorry for Langfords dog tonight, getting a kicking, as we still won.

Dallas had a v v good game
Clarke is just going to get better and better
Pablo ran his socks off upfront

Bielsa changing it after 20 mins when Sheff were on top. Then we went started to control it.
Love the fact he is not scared to change things at any time. Our last two managers did not change things as they simply tried not to lose but Bielsa tries to win. Its a big difference and in him trust. MOT.

I think personally we also may need a couple more influential Jan signings but who knows with the magic man in charge! Always MOT.

01 Dec 2018 19:37:26
People can always have an opinion, but it just amazes me that after what we have done people feel it isn’t possible. Of course it’s not a certainty because lots can happen and loads of games to go, but given the hurdles and obstacles, it really seems strange to give up and say we can’t do it!

Let’s take ait a game at a time though. Two games coming up that we should win if we want to challenge and then Villa in Brum that looks to be another big challenge.

Agree0 Disagree0

01 Dec 2018 20:17:12
Of course we can do it Cork if we carry on like this, but I still feel a couple of quality additions can only help our cause. Hopefully if Bielsa has his eye on one or two, the club can get them for him. MOT.

Clarke has a way to go yet but what he needs to learn now can only be learnt in the face of competition on the pitch. I am confident he will be given consistent game time. How much? Only Bub will decide but I have confidence that he will well balance the needs between the individual and the team.

Looking at our fixtures I think we can genuinely win 15/ 16 of last 26 and throw
I a few draws I think we will realistically loose 4/ 5 more this season but I think we can get to the 90 point mark.

So far he has shown he struggles with fitness to last 40 mins.

If he plays 30-40 minutes and decides the game that’s enough at his age.

He "decided" this one!

Agree1 Disagree0

01 Dec 2018 18:09:10
If we can win with Clarke for 45mins fine, better use of the players available. Particularly in the role he plays, come on for 45 mins and give your all. Alioski and Harrison can do a shift and that’s before brown is ready. When Ayling is back, Dallas fits into that as well.

The Christmas and New year period is coming and with the table so tight, this could be the period where somone starts to break away.

Not bad that we have a few underused players available and possibly Brown and Bamford to play a little sooner rather than later.

Agree0 Disagree0

There keeper decided it for us.

01 Dec 2018 20:52:49
He gave us a chance but there was still a fair bit for Jack to do and he did it really well, calm and composed. I’ve seen a fair few people make a hash of it in that position. He took it and made it easier for Hernadez. We have created loads of stylish opportunities that we haven’t taken, need to be able to take the easier ones as well. And in a season you need to be able to win a few games like that. Well done fellas!

Agree0 Disagree0

01 Dec 2018 16:13:34
Wilder says with players and resources Sheff utd should be nowhere near promotion. Well should Leeds? Yes I know we are a bigger name Chris😎, but we have just about the same team as last year, we don't have a massive squad, we have had an injury list that is unimaginable and we have played a bunch of kids no one had heard of at the start if the season! But. we have Biesla and by the looks of it fantastic camaraderie. Credit to Biesla and all the players and back room staff plus Radz and Orta to for what they have achieved so far. Please it going for the amazing Leeds fans always MOT. We will be with you always!

Believable3 Unbelievable0

01 Dec 2018 15:57:40
Well done lads! Great effort! Matched a very good, well organised team and then took our chance when it came. Deserved the win whatever Michael Brown thought! Ref awful today! BP-F flapped at a few but also made two terrific saves! KP definitely worthy of MOM. Thought Roofe worked his socks off!
Clarke a definite upgrade in the second half! Three straight wins, no goals conceded! Can't wait until we get our defence back! Only Boro have stopped us scoring this season. Good day, let's see if the other results go for us!

Believable4 Unbelievable0

01 Dec 2018 15:44:48
A serious point for those of our more negative posters. After watching a game like that, how can any Leeds fan write off our chances of promotion this year!

I'm not saying that we will definitely do it but I am saying, don't give up because this group of players and coaching staff don't.

Our playing resources are being stretched beyond belief, we are pulling in kids that lots of the fans hadn't heard of at the start of the year, we are being kicked off the park but we go to Sheffield United, play most of the game with a back line of Dallas, Aapo, Pontus and Douglas, and we keep a clean sheet! It's not impossible, so don't write us off!

Well done to the coaching team and well done to Bielsa for crediting his coaching colleagues. Before Hernadez was moved, we were making Sheffield look like Brazil! That stemmed the flow and we started to play a bit.

First game we've been out possessed, showing signs of having a plan A2 for quality teams. That enables us to have a bench that can change the game.

Very very happy!

Influencing the game isn’t about playing every player for the full 90 mins. 45 mins of Clarke might still be enough at the moment and try something else for the other 45.

Bielsa uses the substitutes well and we still had Saiz in reserve today. Soon to have Brown and Banford on the bench as well.

01 Dec 2018 15:54:29
Clarke best against tiring legs and players on yellow cards

Alioski might not be having the best of times but he and Douglas work well together and look fairly solid down that flank

It’s not just about atrtacking threat it’s also about nullifying the opponent, especially first half away from home

It was their cup final after all

Don’t mind “dodgy “ or “ out of his depth” when we win and keep a clean sheet. Both Bailey and Aapo also had some good moments! How many our other CBS have been able to keep Sharp quiet in previous games!

Of course Aapo was going to find it hard but he has now had two good tastes of First team football including most of a game at Bramall Lane. Got to be good for him and the team!

Think their keeper had an even dodgier moment!

Ref letting them get away with murder here. 2 should be off at HT and how does Roofe get booked? Always the same. let's see what 2nd half brings.

If Roofe had kept his feet on the ground it would have been our free kick in a dangerous area but he didn't so reference interpreted it as he jumped into their guy.

Ref completely bottled it 1st half.

We seem to be playing against the Gods, who took Cooper and the referee who missed at least two more Sheffield yellow cards and possibly a straight red and then books Roofe!

Well do be for hanging in there in another tough game! Forshaw not making his presence felt.

If we get Saiz running at their defense in the second half, hard to see one of their players not getting sent off if the ref puts his glasses in!

Might be worth Clarke having a run at them to, but it is a very physical game for him.

Not out if this at all.

Is the ref related to Buldock. No penalty for the push on roofe and no booking for the full on Hernadez.

Stop passing ball about in defence.
Jeez. Too much pressure on goalie.
Goalie and Alioski poor so far.

Remember how that shining beacon of light Collyless might retort. Second rate ref for a second rate gane. Can't wait to return to the PL.

It'd be nice if we could get the ball and keep it.

Good news is in 2nd half we have the linesman in our attacking end who doesn't know what offside is!

Lovely passing play until we get near their goal. Can't we just hold on to it, need some Saiz magic Alioski not doing much as usual.

Picked up a bit towards the second part of the half, blunts should have had 2 red cards by now, hopefully Clarke will get a run out . bound to be a sending-off then :)

Disappointed with myself here, I’m definitely a glass three quarters full guy, but like Southern said previously my overall feelings are two fold negative and sharp!

Billy bloody Sharp! They’ve rested him last couple of games just for us today, and I really wanted us to play Saiz from the of!

That being said whenever I’ve had this nagging feeling Bielsa has proved his genius, I was dreading Derby away and look what happened there.

So I reckon a 1-1 or 2-2 with defenders scoring the goals, but boy take any win today. Lucky unjust unfair who cares, be massive to head the table before the others play today! MOT.

Pontus backs, Alioski starts. Going for the more resilient starting lineup with attacking threat to come off the bench.

Going for a 2-1 win today, had really hoped to see saiz start today but hopefully he comes on and cause major problems for their back line, felt alioski should of been benched for today but in bielsa we trust. ALAW MOT.

2 - 1 to us with Roofe and Hernandez getting the goals, you heard it here first.

Not trying to call this one. For me whoever gets first goal will win that's why i hope we come out all guns blazing and not try and play on break. Put them under pressure first 30 mins. They obviously pose a goal threat so its how good our defense plays to enable us to attack. Sure we will cause them problems at the back let's hope some one has their scoring boots on.

If Saiz is a starter today, then I see this as an ideal game for him to play his way back into a regular place and impress Bielsa. On his game Saiz can cause them plenty of problems, I echo others on here's sentiment that we need to go for it today and boss the game. I know we have had plenty of possession in the majority of our matches but today we need to be a threat up front. And please, please stop with the passing about around our own goal area because they have the players to punish our mistakes.

Agree with all above comments. And I’m going 2-1 to us too.
Got to be on our game but they are doable.

Sadly no start for Saiz, bielsa starting with his usual line up. Alioski needs to raise his game today, don't need passengers for this game!

This really is one where we need everybody at it from the off to get anything. Come on Leeds!
