On a positive note, delighted to see Mac starting again. Fully deserved after his maestro performance at City.

I have no doubt Tau will come on in second half.

Have to imagine there’s some tactical play starting Gross over Biss. I don’t get it personally, but must be a reason. Big call from the gaffer, let’s how it works. He deserves credit if it does.

Well, could be set piece delivery perhaps. Leeds are very vulnerable, and Gross is our best by absolute miles.

Thinking about it, I wonder if we’re going to see a tactical switch at half time.

Contain in first half, than bring on Biss and Tau in second half, attacking switch to two up front against tired legs.

I haven't read any previous comments on this thread... But anyone else getting fed up with this tin pot selections?

Why on earth leave Bissouma out? And 5 centre backs constantly... How is Dan Burn getting picked week in week out... I'm lost atm, starting to get so fed up...

No continuity or chance for any form with these stupid Potter decisions... Had enough of him now

No, it's just you. The rest of us are more than happy with today's team.

Here we go again. Gluttons for punishment we are.

Let’s hope for 3 points.

Have a feeling the hardwork will come in the first half to contain them and if they run out of puff 2nd half, we'll take advantage.

Could go easily wrong but come on Albion!

Potter does seem to like to put himself under unnecessary pressure. Fingers crossed it works.

I honestly don’t know how some people keep up the negativity, there’s enough negativity in the world at the moment without being relentlessly negative about the everything with the team you support as well, it’s quite impressive that people can be so relentlessly angry.

Brainless team selection. No Bissouma is absolute madness and will probably mean we lose this game.

Tactic? Stifle Leeds for 1st half and try to hit on the break with Maupay.

Go for it second half with subs like Tau?

Similar to what we did at Man City.

If our tactics are to stifle then I would have expected Bissouma to be first name on teamsheet.

Let's hope we're not 3 down at half time

I mean...WTF even is that line-up? What sort of idiot looks at Dan Burn and Yves Bissouma and thinks "hmm, this is a crucial game...I'll go for the lanky one"?
 




As Potter selections go, not sure it’s that bad? I mean at least he’s picked Maupay, who is still our most likely source of goals given all our other options are worse

Now obviously Potter and his team have faced Bielsa’s Leeds before in the Championship when with Swansea.

I’d be interested to know the scores of those games and who had the edge. Maybe one for Swanny. @%1;

one draw, two leeds wins and one swansea win. leeds on top.

McCallister isn’t fast, strong or tricky enough to impact in a game like this. That’s my opinion from watching him 10 or so times. Granted he well in the free hit game against City. Hope I’m wrong.

Indeed.

Leeds are like an excited puppy - they run and run and run. Let’s see what their legs are like in the last 20mins against the players you’ve quoted.

Potters lost the plot what slow as f.ck line up is that, no central midfielder either. Someone turn the lights off and lock up we are done for.

That had better be the reason , otherwise the Outs just got another vote . I`m old fashioned , play your best 11 from the start , not later when you`re 2 down .
