Highlandwhite Matchday Thread ==================================================
Welcome to Matchday 22 marking the halfway point of the season and as we hope to keep our record of being the league's only unbeaten team at home.
Team news
LEEDS
Only missing Firpo and Dallas, otherwise a fully fit squad.
COVENTRY
Missing Fabio Tavares otherwise a full squad
Coventry are in mid table but have recently been in good form with 3 wins and a draw against Southampton in the their last 5 games.
After Tuesday night's disappointment would be surprised if Farke keeps the same starting XI as there is no doubt some players are looking jaded. Would expect a positive response and will go for a 2.1 victory.
Over to you all for predictions and line ups
Come Onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeds!!!
MOT
Can we go Live once again please Admins
Leeds Utd 1 Coventry City 1

We have Ipswich next followed by Preston, who are the only team in the FL who haven't kept a cleansheet at home this season 😳

We know the line up before the game and how'll we'll play and therefore so do the opposition. That's fine if you are a top tier team and can brush them aside anyway but at this level it comes back to bite you. Are we to assume that the lack of usage of the squad would indicate that Farke does not rate and trust the players on the fringes? That's what it looks like.
With James, Gray Rodon, Ampadu and others playing just about every game and many for international sides too what does that begin to look like in a 46 games season plus cups? We are seeing it right now.

Id like to see Gray play alongside Amps and Kamara in a 433, ditching Piroe. We're so top heavy with this 424.

We cannot beat bang average sides like Coventry at home so what will Ipswich do to us next week.

Seriously guys I think DF's stubbornness to not change his thinking over Piroe is going to cost us now teams have realised how to nullify Piroe especially who is just feeding on crumbs and getting in other players way. Bamford looks like a shell shocked victim of WW1. He must be renoved now from the club, he's a very negative influence and I wish the owners would just cut their losses and pay up his contract as he gives us nowt.

You think Bamford's a negative influence, just wait till Aaronson and Sinisterra return early from their loans in Jan. ..
