Norwich City - thoughts.....

Another Bank Holiday weekend beckons with the prospect of reasonable weather for some and the usual fayre for others.

We'll probably lose top spot tonight with Middlesbrough hosting West Bromwich Albion at the Riverside Stadium tonight. I'm expecting 'Boro to take all three points which means that we'll need to secure same against the Canaries to resecure our rightful place at the summit.

Norwich City isn't quite firing on all cylinders just yet, 4 points from 4 games. Typically raise their game against the Mighty Whites so I'm not expecting a stroll in the park at Carrow Road.

Are we expecting a Derby County or a Swansea City type Leeds United performance?

I think confidence has been slightly knocked, Cooper's withdrawal, something we used to wish for at times in the past, has impacted on the team and indeed, the style of play.

I'm looking for Leeds United to edge out in a close, scrappy affair. Fitness with a little more quality will see us through. 2-1.

I wonder if Bamford gets the nod for a wide role......

What do you reckon?

PS: It's been a weird old week for Leeds United hasn't it? Disclosures of Conte being approached to manage Leeds United, a Russian club making Summer overtures for Jansson and finally, more recently, the Mexicans enquiring about Bielsa. Italians, Russians and Mexicans. All the hallmarks of a good read about drugs and Mafia-like cartels. Just an every day event in the life of Leeds United.

Who says we're not famous anymore? Certainly not Sky Sports....

Agreed, Jannson (most likely) or Shaughnessy in at CB, Ayling back to RB and Berra stays in at CB.

Harrison may start in place of Alioski and I expect Phillips to come back in.

Rest of team stays as it was.

Not too much in that game to worry us though.

How did QPR manage to concede 7 against West Brom!

Must of watched a different game to me.

If we finish above both them teams, we’ll be top two. End of season

If they adopt a similar style of play against Leeds I think we'll do okay.

Boro are going up I reckon. Very good team/squad and pulis is like an upgraded warnock.

Pulls is in a different category to Colin, not even close!

And Bielsa looks a different class again.....

Don't see why we can't beat Middlesborough on Friday.

Be a tough game but didn't see the game and think we won't be able to cope with what they have.

THe next 2 games may be a great litmus for us. Norwich always good at home & Boro flying. If we can get 4 pyts from the 2 games will be proud










NAH lets smash um both
