Leeds Predictions

Permalink  
 

No point in holding it in too long. Get your huffs and puffs out and start breathing naturally once more.

 

Millers 0

Leeds 3

thats with PW's team.

 

Millers 2

Leeds 0

 

my team, and its a handsome win

Rodak

mattock Robertson Wood Jones.

Ajayi

towell crooks. vaulks

vasell smith

since neither taylor nor forde is considered good enough there is little point in having a specific wide option. Dropping vyner clears up any mistakes and gives us something better than a pogo stick,  and bring back woods increases our ferocity, togetherness and points total massively.  We dont need the speed of Taylor or Forde as they cant do anything. So, lets get the players who can run in the central areas and carry the ball forward.  Using Ajayi's pace and putting him in midfield means we can actually win a ball (in midfield) and also match their players for pace. Heck, he might even be able to get up and down a little. Let the full backs have a bit of responsibility and Im sure they will perform out of their skin. Vasell has looked willing and seemed able to run with the ball. A few overlaps with smith should confuse the hell out of leeds and any dodgy breakdowns in attack will kindly rebound to one of the triumvirate who will be steaming forward with pride and passion.

Agree with you if we go with the side we had out against Brentford we'll get nil pts against Leeds.

But no way I'd go with side you've selected. Wait till we see if we bring any players in. Rodak Ajayi Robertson Forde Vaulks Towell Smith Yates would start for me. No Ajayi in midfield.

I am ready for another pasting haven't seen a side score 5 this season it won't be us. 3 of the easiest points Leeds will get this season does anybody think we have any chance on Saturday. Hope I am proved wrong. Wednesday looks like it's going to be a no signing day at least Smith is still here for how long ?. It's about time us long suffering fans had a bit of joy.

Long suffering fans! ..... Do you really think so ? Won a play off final in 2014 and 2018. Playing in the second tier of English football with a fan base of under 8000. Now if you had said this when we were holed up in that god forsaken place in Sheffield with one side to sit in, a howling wind whipping up around you and binoculars required to see the action i might have agreed with you TH Miller.
No i think its a great time to be a miller. Punching above our weight, fighting for survival with a great set of lads giving there all. Not much debt and on Saturday we entertain one of our countries biggest clubs with a chance of winning. Leeds are in the top ten clubs in England with a history of being competitive in Europes elite competitions, yet come Saturday they could get turned over by us. Of course they are the favourites but i have a feeling this might be close. Its no use complaining about lack of recruits( I am one who has said we need new faces) we have a team spirit that will always give us a chance. Sometimes the football is not easy on the eye but how many twelve months ago would have said we would be out of the relegation places in the championship. Not many. Come on you mighty millers lets give Leeds a scare.

 possibly...yes!

I have opened an account with the cooperative.

Reference is; who needs a manager!

sort code is; attack

account number: its not my fault.

 

Ive put my complete savings in , whoch amounts to £573

I reckon if 16 million 432 thousand and 17 ,did the same we could launch an effective takeover and be in the premiership within 3 seasons. we would need a committee however to try and sort out the lads and lasses who run the food tills...hmmmm, maybe we should just scrap em and promote picnics on the pitch at half time. Yeah ! that could be our first and unique offering to English football. Family picnic on the pitch every half time with bouncy castles and free balloons for the kids to let off in the second half.

 

God we could be brilliant!

Run a football club none of us on this site could run a chip shop. I just wish we had the funds to compete in this league there are some matches that get to you. The last home match was one of them. Not helping the mood with our lack of signings to be honest not thinking about Saturday's match just going hope it's not to cold.

Brentford game was so depressing. Same as it's been all season no Right back or Left winger. No pace in midfield. I'm still hoping something can be done about RB & LW in time for the Leeds game. Watching WBA game on sky commenters were saying championship full backs have to able to get forward. That rules our two recognised RB's out. Want Yates in the side, he looks a battler either on the left or in midfield. If we don't sign anyone going Rodak; Ajayi Raggett Robertson Mattock; Forde Wiles Vaulks Towell Yates; Smudger

What do you mean if we don't sign anyone? OF COURSE we won't sign anyone.

Millers 1 Leeds 5 Its going to be a hard slog to get a respectable result and their overloading tactics when attacking will see them find all the holes in our defence and plenty of chances. Playing 451 brings them onto us too and I get why we cant play two up top but it will hurt us on Saturday. We might sign a top midfielder and striker before the weekend though... 😁

Another Thursday players injured pick & mix side a least Mr Vyner is fit. No signings looks like a full house On Saturday we must be gluttons for punishment. Got to do what Burton did last night to Man City get in there faces very unlucky not to get a draw have we got the bottle.

 ...and that's the essence of why we get so frustrated on here...

We are playing Leeds, in the Championship, infront of a full house.

It really would not take too much to make this team stay in the league and have similar fixtures for at least a few seasons... but we see too little risk being taken, in a business sense... to get just the two or three players we need...

If he plays same side we are doomed I would be radical put vaulks at right back so he can organise the defense Vaulks ajayi Robertson mattock Wiles crooks towell Yates Smith williams We don't have any wingers so play narrow and go 3 up front

Problem being Vaulks is the only holding midfield player we have so he's got to stop there. Still sooner have Vyner then Jones. If fit injured players from last week assuming we don't sign anyone going Rodak; Vyner Ajayi Robertson Mattock; Forde Crooks Vaulks Towell Yates; Smith

He can be but putting vaulks right back seems wasteful and too radical. We don't know how good crooks is and we do know we have the best player in the team in the middle of the park. Vaulks does a tremendous defensive job exactly where he is.

I think it's the attack we need to improve not the defence... Priority

With respect Ian, have a look how many times we have let two or more goals in at home. Hull - 3. WBA - 4. QPR - 2. Sheff Utd - 2. Brentford - 4. Stoke - 2. There may be others. They are off the top of my head. All but WBA, scored twice ourselves yet failed to win. Our defensive frailties are costing us just as much as our inability to score more goals. As a rule we do score at home and if we keep a clean sheet at home or concede only one, we tend to win.
