Sorry, got to reply to this one. Virgo was really solid today and it was Elf who was watching the game go on around him.

With 100% hindsight El Abd should have come on to sit in the hole in front of the back four 4 1 3 2 ansd kept everything narrow and compact

Another very good game by Virgo today so why drop him. If anything play El Abd in front of the back four as a deep lying holding midfielder but can you afford to go to Elland Road with defence in mind and sit back and absorb presssure for the entire game. NO.

I think you find I've been to the games mate and he's not great

Try facing the pitch then!

Virgo had a good game today, as he did on Tuesday too. Elphick had a few shaky moments and a couple of "hoofs" but neither need to be replaced by El-Arabed ffs.

You haven't a clue. If there is a CB to drop then it has to be Elphick. Defensively, Virgo was far better than Elphick, and has been for a number of games and I have been one of Virgo's biggest critics in the past.

I'm not a fan of calderon at the minute but el-abd is better on left on CB so I mentioned Virgo because I think he isn't as good as elphick

Hes not as good as Elphick ... he's better , Virgo has been solid , why would you prefer El-Abd then Virgo ? El Abd hasn't exactly got a height advantage and his decision making can prove costly .

El abd is too short and a liability at CB. Painter is a solid LB. Calderon after a good start appears to be the weak link at RB - I would prefer whing.
