[Archived] Leeds United vs Blackburn Rovers New Years Day 15.00

Marshall will be a good right back. He's hard working, good in the air and certainly offers a good threat overlapping. After thinking about it I'd rather him there than Kane who isnt our player

[rovers11]

If i didn't know better i'd say he's taking the p'ss with that line up. Hope it works but there'll be no clean sheet today.

Trying something new I guess. Don't think it will work though.

[SoldierMo]

Does sound abit of a desperate lineup for 3points...has he been told win or sack??

I hope it does for the diehards who've shelled out £34 a ticket.

[FGS5635]

Says alot about how attacking his lineup is that we havent really mentioned DJ is playing yet. That itself is a big big call

[dingles staying down 4ever]

Guessing henleys injured?

was struggling towards end of Brum game. Was holding his hip

I was thinking that.

Hope he does not get booked and has a point to prove. Not surprised to be honest that he is playing today. Have to admit very surprised at the team

Why would a manager who also plays a defensive lineup at home all of a sudden gone for all out attack???

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Not much on the bench, still no Dunny, seems sh*t or bust time!

[FGS5635]

I guess he has to change something away. At home it arguably works, but away we have something like 3 wins in last 21

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Odd line up. Seems to have no real shape about it. I really fear for us today with that line up.

This.

[Stuart]

Bonkers line up. He seems to have got to pieces in a bid to cover for the "loss" of Lowe.

I guess if (I'll be kind) we lose he can point out how much we missed him.

Other than that, three strikers and three forwards on the pitch. Going to be... interesting?

If we get 3 points today then bowyer deffo deserves the plaudits

And if we get pasted ??

[FGS5635]

16 yr old on bench to. Must have really high hopes for him to throw him in so soon. Damm so many talking points with this lineup, dont know where to start

[dingles staying down 4ever]

Lack of defensive players I guess. Suppose he could have put Kilgallon in and move Hanley to right back.

[Bucksrover]

Think he's being rested after 5 games in a row following a long lay-off.

Saying that, what's up with Kane??

I get a bit paranoid in the transfer window - when players get rested I always expect them to be sold

[FGS5635]

And if we get pasted ??

Tony Parkes may start ironing his tracksuit

[only2garners]

Why no kane?

Gutted I havent gone now, quite excited about that lineup. That said also equally scared with it lol

Kane was injured on Sunday so I assume still is.

[RevidgeBlue]

We're gonna win 5-3!

Disappointed Rochina has been dropped after his lone chance but that line up should prove whether or not people like LD Rover were right in saying that we need to attack teams in this division.

Might just well be.

[rovers11]

Bizarre to change the team so drastically when we've been good away from home the last few weeks.

Perhaps the thinking is we are rubbish at defending so lets go and attack!!

[chaddyrovers]

So Bowyer is going attacking line up and still people moaned. Give up some fans.

looks like 4-3-3 with leeds playing 3-5-2.

Plus Kane is injured and King still not fully fit yet.

[G Somerset Rover]

Reckon Bowyer's been read the riot act.

And if we get pasted ??

Haha Then avoid this forum
