Indeed - I think this will be my only northern game for a while, feels like we’ve left so early we could take in the Ipswich Liverpool game on the way 😩

Honestly Fairy never took you for a Yank, man up

The funny thing is if we have last season’s injury rate there we might - fingers crossed

Agree - no real alternative but to rock up to the Amex a bit early and use the shop changing room before queues get enormous. I did that for the training top and hauled 3 sizes into the room as I knew it would be a lottery guessing which might fit

Leeds fans say he’s the best player in the Championship

I think 15,000 attendance including 2k Crawley would be a decent attendance for an early round League Cup game. It may get more if it captures the public imagination but I’d say that’s the less likely scenario tho I’d love it if it made it into the 20ks. Crawley are on a crest of a wave, two...

I think famously they do but we don’t? Isn’t it a bit of a Bournemouth-Southampton situation

I think tournament rules are still you are only allowed to change 5 or 6, so very likely for Crawley. I imagine with our burgeoning squad it could be 11 changes from both Man U and the EFL Trophy

Famine to feast in transfer windows - great these signings but we could have done them a year ago and avoided a pretty miserable last 5 months of the season

You don’t think he plays a back 3 and wingbacks? Veltman looked to me too glued to Van Hecke’s and Dunk’s line to be playing right back on Saturday - and Minteh was not as consistently as high as Mitoma - but I know these things fall into the art of interpretation so happy to be educated by the...

Given up talking about Steele as we are that point where nobody is going to change their mind. But I really thought Milner had a decent game on Saturday

OK there was a lot of evidence from the Saturday friendly of what Fab intends to do ---------------------------- Steele ------------------------ ------- Veltman ------- Van Hecke ------ Dunk ----------- Minteh --------- Milner -------- Wieffer ----------- Barco ------------- Welbeck...

Great ball by Moran I think to set him up

Remarkable how different Ayari looks from the somewhat lightweight player of previous seasons. Shows you can never underestimate players’ ability to kick on

Sure. Minteh looks absolutely golden signing, our best since Mitoma. But the system is asking a hell of a lot of him. We find out next week at Everton how much, I’m going!

I’m no mega fan of Veltman but the system is exposing him, genuinely what help is he getting from Minteh?

Well. If you thought RDZ’s aggressive tactics left us a bit open defensively, you are going to be in for a basketball treat soon

Have to be honest I’d prefer Minteh to have Welbeck’s spot off Pedro. Why weigh him with defensive chores

I don’t think Veltman and Minteh have met yet

lol bring back Dunk for free kicks
