Had posters laughing at me when I said James would play plenty before all our youngsters this season. Well? Ole is so afraid.

It’s Ole. Give him PSG’s squad & he’d play it safe.
Hooligans always seem to throw terrible punches. You'd think they would do some sort of training.Rashford->Pogba
Varane->Lindelof
Cavani->Greenwood
Sancho->James
Those are the only changes from our strongest first XI.
The first three aren't very big differences. The last one is, but Sancho will come on at some point in the second half.
I can understand that various fanboys are upset about various agendas. But the team looks strong to me.Matic and Donny were possibilities but can't believe people are surprised that McTom and Fred start.
Welcome back to the Premier league Leeds United. You have not been missed.
Absolute dickheads, need to grow up.I like Mcfred but Daniel James is a next level of crap.
Martial is not fit enough to start
Yes we only scored 6 with this team last season against LeedsNot many people believed Pogba will be playing off the left - yet he does.Match thread mourning is back
Jesus Christ, has a record ever been so broken?
McTominay scored 2 goals against this team last season10/11 good start
The transfer window has two weeks to go. Anything could happen yet.Decent line up, wasn't expecting Fred to start.
Hopefully James shuts a few people up on here today.Happy enough with that team. Mixture of energy and creativity. If it's tight, then we have some good options to bring from the bench to change the game.
It’s embarrassing - just mindless idiots that just go looking for trouble…….unfortunately football matches are the smokescreen for these morons….Wtf is wrong with Englishmen?
God, I hate Leeds so much.
The absolute worst fanbase on earth.Disappointed with that line up but mainly because we took so long for the Varane deal to complete, we have no choice but to play McFred. I'm sure Ole would have loved to not play this team but we are where we are. Surprised to see James ahead of Martial, its almost as if Ole thinks playing the same way against Leeds will work every time. Bielsa is smarter than that. Anyway, im going for 2 1 united.
Deansgate, not Piccadilly.
Mctominay & Fred are not better central midfielders than Paul Pogba please behave yourself. McTominay can’t even get in Scotland’s midfield.I was more enthused about McT and Matic than the old band of McT and Fred.
I quite like both players individually, but when it's one or the other on the pitch. The McFred unit is just a vacuum of joy.Andreas on the bench despite the fact we want him gone and he wants to goThink that's the right team.Another title challenge begins with McFred at cm? Not going to cut itMcFred and James, FFS.
The problem is that neither Matic nor Pogba can be part of our main midfield either (in terms of the two deeper roles - Pogba could potentially have a place further forward). Not VDB either from everything he's showed so far.We desperately need a DCM, Im sick of McFred
Utter wankers FFS they need to grow up !
Leeds are a back and forward team. You need midfielders who cover ground and get around the pitch. That’s Matic biggest weakness.
One of his better games came against Leeds last season. Not only does he provide the running off the ball but he brings energy, which will be needed against a Leeds side full of running.Elanga's still injured I assume?
What has he done to make you so surprised of his omission ?
2 forward passes in a pre season friendly hasn’t sold me on him yet. He is still a long way off and has a lot to prove
When the adults leave the house, the grounded children go wild with mindless excitement.Did you honestly think he'd start Anthony Elanga in a premier league game?
Didn't I just write that I didn't think that?Predictable and safe lineup given we still are using Lindelof. Todays not the day to moan about lineups, when Varane and Sancho are fully fit and ready then feel free to complain.
McFred is depressing but we have no other options. Matic is ancient, can't be using him against Leeds and VdB is just an enigma.10/11 good start
Me too. Who did you get wrong? I had Matic for McTominay.- Status
