Leeds 0 Albion 2 teixeira (44), Holla (67)

I wonder if Dunk and Greer were searched on the way out.....apparently it was thought that Billy Sharp was hiding in one of their pockets.

Only an IDIOT makes PREDICTIONS after 3 games but I think we will win on Saturday and move up the table to a more RESPECTABLE position

Didn't YOU predict RELEGATION after 2 games?

 

[shaunslats]

sharp didn't do much, u think he was pooing himself whenever he went near Dunk...

 

[The Truth]

Mate i'm taking the piss. I have already made my feelings known what i think about Hyypia. I never wanted him here and what i've seen confirms that. In fact he is worse then i first thought.
That team tonight is a disgrace.

good call.

 

[brakespear]

Yeah , Edna wasn't in fancy dress tonight

 

[Weststander]

Yessssssssssssssssss

Who was the muppet slagging this Liverpool kid off?

Didn't Argus and NSC threads on Teixeira have quite a few slagging off his signing, because "he flopped at Brentford". Without taking into account he's a year older, stronger and more experienced now. Along with another year's coaching.

New Portuguese bloke looks immense

 

[Robot Chicken]

This is cool

Missed the whole of the first half due to an accident and subsequent fuel spill on the M180. Chatting to our supporters at half time who were raving about our performance. Didn't seem so assured in the 2nd half but our defence looked better organised than I recall from last season; perhaps that's the Hyppia effect? The free kick that resulted in KLL's goal looked like a pen to my lad and I, it's just that Tex fell outside the box. The Brighton fans made a lot of noise. Anyone who says that Leeds are still a big club need to go to one of their home games; they have one noisy end (and it's a relevant term) and 2.5 fairly quiet stands. There were an awful lot of empty seats tonight.

Thoroughly enjoyed this evening - once we got there!

Cracking result last night and life feels a much better place now we've got some points and goals on the board, Can't pretend I wasn't a bit concerned when I saw the starting line up but it worked so well played Sami.

 

[SeagullinExile]

I'm still confused, it's easily done tho. With 2 up front?

EDIT: Before I get dogs' abuse I now see that it was a 4-5-1. Thank you kindly

A kind of 4-5-1, would a better description be a fluid 4-2-3-1?

Yes - and the person you quoted probably knows a bit more about that! There was a large dose of self-deprecation in his post (either that, or he's suffering from dissociative identity disorder).

You forgot to add he's now playing with better players. He was probably too good for Brentford last year!

Im still shocked that he isnt clinically dead following their last meeting.

Naylor had it as 4-1-2-2-1. Whatever that means!

Ok, a diamond. I think I saw on the Argus match text that they found it hard to tell the exact formation because the movement was so fluid.

A diamond would be 4-1-2-1-2... close enough I guess

They're both diamond formations - One is more attacking with 2 strikers, that's the only difference.
