L, sadly.
I just think the breaking up of our recently back to it's best back 5 will be our undoing against a formidable Leeds side desperate for a win.

If they're formidable why are they on the same points as us? I don't think anyone would call us formidable this season.

Ha, good point.
At least they will attack us, it will definitely be a tough watch but we've proven pretty consistently we like teams to come on to us and they will do that. Plus we did beat them convincingly earlier in the season so we obviously match up well. Plus they just lost 4-0.

It might be worth sticking Murillo at left back for this and having Milenkovic and Morato at centre half. Calvert-Lewin is their main threat but I don't think he's the fastest or most mobile so two physical centre halves would hopefully be able to deal with him.
RE: Leeds - Nottingham Forest - Sniffer Dog (Admin) - 02-02-2026
That is what I would do SR.

By formidable I meant they're a very direct and physical side, which will be backed up by a noisy crowd. Not a game for naivety or any lightweights. I agree, I'd go Murillo at LB too.

Or it could be Abbott at RB and Aina at LB if Savona is still injured.

That makes more sense. I would attach a thumbs-up smiley but they seem to have vanished.

Such a bad game to not have Neco for.

There was a problem with the route to the smiley's and they weren't working properly. When I have time I will add some others.

Not important in the grand scheme of things but cheers anyway.
