I don't think Bruno's goal counts as an assist for anyone. It's 2 assists for the second and fourth goal.

Thought I was pushing it ha

Credit where it's due, I panned James before kickoff. He's looked very much part of the team and much less of a competition winner.

You serious? He has been completely anonymous besides one run with the ball. We have basically played with 10 men all half.

Great half thoug, in an open game like this we can complete with the very best. Get Greenwood or Cavani on for James
and we'll score more.

I might be stupid but if you need both to score in both halves then it can’t end 7-1. Did you make a poopy when placing the bet?

I think the odds he got were 7-1

Relfy · Dec 20, 2020

Would like to see Greenwood come on and bag a couple here to give him a boost

So umm... Everyone's happy in here right? Because you know... This is good. Right?

No, conceded goal was unnecessary. In attack it is ok so far

RedDevil@84 · Dec 20, 2020

Our defense is really the difference between struggling in and out of top 5 and going on a title run.

Very happy but it's ok to criticise the zonal marking failure once again.

It is avoidable

I'd bloody love to see Cavani come on for James and us properly go at them. James has played alright though to be fair to him.

Cavani comes on he scores against this lot...for sure.

I'm still a bit on edge. You never know with us and you never know with Leeds.

stu_1992 · Dec 20, 2020

Great, entertaining half. We absolutely flew out of the blocks which was a very nice change from the usual going behind to win.

Some great attacking stuff. McTominay's first was a real belter and his second one our strikers would have been proud of scoring. Goal and assist for Fernandes, almost standard at this point. 2 assists for Martial. Even Lindelof getting in on it! Shame Rashford hasn't gotten a goal.

Think we need to to wait a little before resting people because their goal came at a bad time to be honest. A second and they'd have a bi of confidence, so we need another to shut that down early doors in the second half. More goals in this yet.

Hugh Jass · Dec 20, 2020

If they get another it will be nervous as feck.

Bring on Greenwood for James as well.

Adisa · Dec 20, 2020

Leeds remind me of Rayo vellecano under Paco Jemez.
Full on, all the time.

Mystry · Dec 20, 2020

The commentary on my stream is so nauseating. Just gushing about nothing with this Leeds team. Like they wouldn't expect a team that is 3-0 down with about 65 minutes still to play would be the ones attacking trying to get a goal.

That aside, really enjoyable first half.

RedIke · Dec 20, 2020

Leeds play in the same manner I play FIFA. :lol:

fergieisold · Dec 20, 2020

Just need to start playing with 11 men by taking James off. It’s amazing that he even looks shit when we’re playing brilliantly.

GMoore23 · Dec 20, 2020

This should be James last start for us in the League. We've been fantastic as a team today yet he's been near invisible. Like a boy playing with men, he's afraid to impose himself on the game.
Loan or get rid in January, he makes Lingard look like an elite player.

Zoo · Dec 20, 2020

Unleash Mason and Cavani after 60 mins

I’m not a fan of zonal marking, but either way that was a matchup Fred can’t win. Perfect header. It’s going to happen from time to time. But at least it was a well worked corner and not the kind of shit goals off corners we’ve given up recently.

The point is Fred shouldn’t be marking one of their cbs. How is 1 of our bigger players supposed to read the flight of the ball and get there first to head it away! It’s suicide.

fergosaurus · Dec 20, 2020

Great offensive performance. Defending has been a bit dodgy at times and zonal marking needs scrapped and we need people marking the posts. We're good enough to finish top two and possibly challenge Liverpool if they have an off season so we can't continue to give away cheap goals like that.

It's nice to get our business done in the first half and not wait until we go behind before being sparked into action. Leeds will not give up yet but they're not scoring three without reply with the attacking threat we carry.

I'm not particularly a Shaw fan but he's a candidate for MotM today, what are the people criticising him watching?!

Bielsa has always been a bit of a mad lad hasn't he? This will probably end up with another absurd scoreline like 7-4.

Superunknown · Dec 20, 2020

I've just watched that second McTominay goal about 6 or 7 times. That run, that touch, and then the finish.

thepolice123 · Dec 20, 2020

Can‘t believe one of the commentators on my stream is saying this will end 4-4. What a prick.

DickDastardly · Dec 20, 2020

We all knew what had to be done and who had to play in midfield.

I'm just glad that Ole realized that too.

Scott and Fred are handling themselves very good.

Now, bring on Mason for James. We can score a lot more.

I’d let James stay on. He needs the minutes. Plenty of games coming up for Greenwood.

Your mad, shows been involved in virtually everything. Won the ball high for 2 goals and the corner for the 3rd

Shaw's been lucky we haven't conceded for all the space he's left behind him. AWB's passed them through on goal twice.

Judas · Dec 20, 2020

I'm not as relaxed as I should be at 4-1, but there's no way they can stop us scoring again so even if we let in a couple, we really should be far too far ahead to feck this up

Ronaldo's ego · Dec 20, 2020

This will finish 6-3

Ollie Derbyshire · Dec 20, 2020

Great start, some brilliant finishes and generally a great half but we still put too much pressure on ourselves with silly defensive mistakes that a more clinical team will punish us for.

If we can cut those out we’re starting to get a bit of a swagger about us.

As strange as it may seem we need to make a change now at half time. I'd replace Fred now. There forwards are going through him and we need more height in defence. Pogba for Fred directly and Greenwood for James on 60 mins.

I'd leave him on and back him to be a bit stronger. It's not as if he's unable to keep up with play, he's been back as well as getting forward at will and has played a part along with McTominay in how quickly we're progressing the ball when we win it. Let's just keep it going, maybe a bit tighter at the back, and see where we are after an hour.

TBF to James he did win the ball for the 3rd goal, but yes he does lack the quality to play for a team that has ambitions to win things.

RedDevilRoshi · Dec 20, 2020

Just hope we don’t take our foot off the gas pedal for this 2nd half. There are more goals to be had here against this lot.
