Leeds Utd 2 Watford 1

What a player Tanaka is

The boys toughed it put and took 3 points. After the Watford goal, they didn't manage a shot on target and only our own wayward finishing meant it wasn't comfortable. So long as Largie is ok, not a bad nights work. MOT

Yeah Joseph has to start. Annoying on many fronts that he missed that chance but it would have forced Farke to change it up for Saturday. If Largie is injured for Saturday I'd start James. Solomon was pretty woeful and needs to step it up dramatically.

AO and Aaronsson were outstanding

Yep spot on

Yeah AO is terrific. Rothwell started well but found it a bit too physical in the 2nd half. We didn't play well but we had enough chances to score 5.

Did they say Firpo is out next game after his yellow?

Yes Firpo misses the weekend trip to Bristol City having picked up his 5th booking and Ramazani is doubtful with a twisted ankle.

James should start on Saturday. Thought Solomon didn't look fully fit. Might be better to give him minutes as a sub to get his fitness up

Mateo upfront and Byram will probably be left back as we haven't seen Schmidt much.

Personally when Ampadu is fit would love to see Tanaka with him to see what he can do in a more attacking sense. We were told hes naturally more attacking. Been brilliant so far though in that more defensive role

Definitely start James if Ramazani is out and switch Gnonto as most on here have already stated which with Ramazani having a reported twisted ankle looks likely he will be out for at least one game but hopefully he will only miss that game for us and no more.

I'm not sure Farke will start Joseph and instead stick with Piroe for 70 minutes depending how the game goes plus Byram for the suspended Firpo seems logical so hopefully we can continue our excellent winning record at Ashton gate and Tanaka and Rothwell can continue their fine Strachan and McCallister impersonation.
