Highlandwhite Matchday Thread ==================================================
Kick off 3.00pm, No live feeds as yet
Welcome to Matchday thread for the 3rd game in week yet again and the last before another international break.
Team news
LEEDS
Shackleton is out with a shoulder injury and there are slight concerns over the impressive Anthony and Byram. The longer term injured players expected to return after the break.
BRISTOL CITY
Also have had a few key players missing longer term and expect very few changes to their midweek victory against Rotherham
Bristol City lie just one point below us and are typical championship inconsistent. This will be clearly be much more difficult than the Wednesday night game but a win is essential if we are to keep in touch with the leading teams.
My prediction a 2.1 win, Summerville and one of our defence.
Over to you all for predictions and line ups and finally in the customary manner.
Come Onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeds!!!

Byram was excellent today

Rutter was mom for me. Was unplayable at times, should have scored though. Gray did well at RB

Just reading the thread and the match report it seems we played well with Archie at RB surprising me but I wonder if he will continue there until Spence is fit.
I'm probably one of the minority that likes DJ at this level and I think his confidence will benefit greatly from that goal and today's win too.

Looking forward to seeing what we are like when Spence and Gnonto are fit. Talk about strength in depth! A decent left back in January could be the icing on the cake

Excellent win and vital that we did. The championship is a grind and after the defeat last weekend we had to win back to back to stay in touch.

I think the importance of getting that first back to back win made the players extra anxious and the fans too but hopefully now they have got that milestone under their belts we will see the team go on one of Farke's famous long winning runs.

----------------------------------------------------------We have a decent left back, he just happens to be a right back.

Sam pretty much up there week in week out, him, Ampadu, Rutter and Summerville will be on my ticket for player of the season.
If only Cellino hadn't messed him around.

Still in the Canaries and paid another £10 to watch LUTV today. Picture kept freezing but managed to watch most of it. I think we played well, and considering Bristol City have been winning their away games I think it was a good result today.
Piroe reminds me a bit of Kane when he was at Tottenham, his name was never mentioned during a game and then he’d score having seemingly done very little beforehand.

Off topic a bit but I thought it was quite fitting that ManU scored two goals in Fergie time today.
