KAMP: vs Burnley, Elland Road tirsdag 16.04.13 kl 20:45

[Tobbe9210]

Det erger meg at vi ikke sparket Warnock tidligere. Hadde vi greid å skrape med oss noen flere poeng tidligere (blant annet ved å holde på ledelsen litt oftere), så hadde vi fortsatt vært med i kampen om Play-off.

Utrolig jevnt i år.

[4ever arcticwhite]

2 strake. McDermott-effekten har slått til fra første stund. 6 poeng fra play-off. Sparka Warnock en måned tidligere og vi hadde rykket opp

Hatt McD klar når vi sparket Colin Wanker, og vi hadde rykket opp... Tror vi kommer til å mangle 2 poeng på playoff når sesongen er over om tre kamper, og vi har avsluttet med 5 strake.

[flynn]

Positive takter, selv om det som vanlig ble spennende mot slutten! Hørtes bedre ut i alle fall...

Det får me aldri veta, men ein ting veit me i dag, å det er me ikkje rykke ned....

[enur]

Vi er nærmere playoff enn nedrykk igjen, folx

Championship er en vill, vill serie.

[Kickthemdown]

Nok en deilig seier! To på rad! Fremdeles noen som mener det var feil å bytte manager?  

Hvem har ment det ? 

[Ove]

Selvfølgelig ergelig at med et par  seire mer i den dårlige perioden vi akkurat har lagt bak oss, eller hvis vi ikke fått mål mot oss på slutten, så hadde vi vært med i kampen om playoff, men da hadde ikke McDermott vært manager hos oss. Da hadde warnock fortsatt vært ved roret  

[p0ndus]

Glede, pur glede !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vanligvis mener jeg det, men i tilfellene Wise og Warnock skulle de vært ute av porten før kontraktsforhandlingene.

og så dårlig som det gikk under warnock , så er jeg bare glad vi klarte det.....

[DenHviteYeboah]

Lykke
2 seire på rad=sjelden i år..

Herligt og positivt lad os bygge videre på dette

Alle hopper vist av glede her inne, 3 poeng var viktig og godt men spørsmålet er hvordan spilte egentlig Leeds idag?
jeg kom inn etter ca 60 min og Leeds hadde da 2 skudd i følge statistikken med balle inne hav på nesten 60% som er vel og bra, det forteller meg at vi triller mye ball og sliter med å finne målet.
Nå vet ikke jeg statistikken ved slutt men tviler på at vi kjørte over Burnley de siste 30.

Neste spørsmål blir om Leeds skal friskmeldes fordi McD har tatt over roret?  jeg mener de ikke er det.
Her må det rett og slett nye krefter på plass før jeg får noen tro på at Leeds are back.

Den dagen vi leverer jevnt over som vi gjorde mot Tottenham i FA Cupen så gir jeg de en sjanse men ikke før, jeg er bare dritt lei av å bli lurt av styre/ledere/eiere og hele hurven som har styrt denne skuta de 7-8 siste åra.

[Jon R]

Det hjelper at vi har en lagleder som bruker spillerne i sine rette posisjoner og som har en positiv tilnærming til kollektivet. Det er opplagt lettere å få mer ut av den stallen vi har på den måten.

En god refleksjon. 

Selv om jeg liker den nye manageren som type, og det kan godt være at han er flink til å skape en god (vinner)kultur i klubben vår, så er han også avhengig av andre i klubben, særlig ledelse, styre etc og økonomi.

Kjempestas med 2 seire på rappen under BMcD, og fint at hellet var på vår siden i Sheff W kampen, for det skal jo sies at vi har vært noe uheldige i det siste også.
Jeg tror ikke man skal legge for mye analyse i managerens valg, taktikk etc. for dette, "ny manager effekten"
(som ikke slår til hver gang) kan innvirke for Leeds nå. Får vi ytterligere 3 strake seire mot "brummies", Brighton og Watford, så kan man nok hevde at BMcD er nær en "frelser".

Men jeg har en bedre følelse enn på lenge med ansettelsen av BMcD, Nigel Gibbs og Redfearn.

Denne kampen spilte vi altså med en diamant på midten, med Green defensivt, Austin til høyre, Norris til venstre, og McCormack foran. Det funket visst rimelig bra allerede i første forsøk

Det fungerte det i går, men det var dette med fart på kantane som vi stadig etterlyser da....

Joda. Etter sigende funket denne formasjonen flott med overlapping fra backene

[Asbjørn]

Ellers var det pasningsspillet som gledet folket på tribunen i går, viddtnok (2.omg spesielt):

just an example of what I saw. Tonge, Diouf and Warnock on that left hand side in the second half. Tonge comes down the flank, cant get past his man, gives it to Diouf who has made an overlap, Tonge then moves into the box, Diouf then gives it to Warnock who has made an overlap and the ball is played in with Tonge in the box, Diouf waiting outside and Warnock goes back to his position. I cannot remember the last time I saw a Leeds side do something remotely like that!

I'm sure våre folk på tribunen kan adde sine egne inntrykk etter hvert

Blast from the pass: Leeds United 1-0 Burnley




The long forgotten passing game returned to Elland Road last night as Leeds United cruised to a 1-0 victory over Burnley.

The Whites dominated most of the game, playing short measured passes, retaining possession and patiently trying to create openings.

A far cry from the hoofball days of Neil Warnock, Burnley manager Sean Dyche summed up the change;


“That group of players weren’t playing like that two weeks ago. I know because I saw them.”

Despite all the changes, Leeds United extended a run of games without scoring in the first half to 19. The Whites best chance had fallen to Luke Varney who somehow managed to head over the bar from 4 yards when it looked easier to score.

Varney missed another good chance at the start of the second half, but his overall performance can’t be faulted. He looks a player transformed in his new centre-forward role, a tirelessly hard-working individual whose aerial dominance is something Leeds United have missed since the departure of Luciano Becchio.

Meanwhile, Rodolph Austin was playing an absolute blinder. While always strong in the tackle, the Jamaican has taken some criticism in recent weeks for his wayward passing and careless pot-shots, but last night, he looked like the Rudy of old.

The strong tackles and surging runs forward remained, but gone were the forty yard potshots and misplaced passes. Austin’s 63rd minute goal, a well-taken volley which came via an exquisite chip from El-Hadji Diouf, was just reward for his man of the match performance and the perfect finish to an excellent passage of play from the Whites.

Rudy wasn’t alone in upping his game, the entire team did. As a unit they looked cohesive and more comfortable playing the style Brian McDermott has adopted. Every player wanted the ball and was working hard to create space for themselves, giving their team-mates options when in possession. There was no moaning when someone lost the ball either, they simply re-organised and fought to get it back.

Joyfully, the absence of moaning on the pitch seemed to transfer to the stands too where the 16,788 who had bothered to turn up were enjoying the new style of football Brian McDermott was directing. “We’re Leeds United, we’re passing the ball” was sang with so much enthusiasm, the players must surely have taken encouragement from it.

The match wasn’t entirely one-way traffic though, Burnley did enjoy brief spells of sustained pressure towards the end of each half, but this was as comfortable a 1-0 victory as Leeds United have produced in some time.

Changes to personnel and the style of play certainly helped matters, but the biggest contributing factor to this win was Leeds United’s togetherness. In five short days, Brian McDermott has replaced hunched shoulders, frustrated sighs and dropped heads with an enthusiasm and self-belief we’ve lacked in recent months. The players looked to be enjoying themselves, and most importantly, the crowd was too.

There’s work to be done of course. We still lack creativity, width and could use a heavy-hitter upfront. But these are areas to be addressed in the summer, for now, you have to applaud Brian McDermott for getting the best out of the players at his disposal.

On and on…

Hentet fra Teamtalk:

"They were the better side," said Dyche. "Apart from a little rally at the end, they were better.

"They showed their experience and that's interesting because the same group of players weren't playing like that two weeks ago because I saw them.

"So that's an interesting one in itself, but we caught them on a night when they were on the front foot and we weren't quite at it.

Tydelig at McD allerede har satt sine spor possession-messig. Herlig!

DEILIG! 
Er meget optimistisk med tanke på neste sesong!

[Milou]

Var på kampen i går og det var eit til tider pasningssikkert og godt Leedslag, og ein fullt fortent seier sjøl om Burnley fekk unødvendig mange sjanser mot slutten. Eg overhøyrte Lorimer seie at det var det beste han hadde sett Leeds spele sidan dei første kampane i sesongen,

Spelarbørs;
Kenny: 7 (Lite involvert, men trygg på det han gjer)
Byram: 5 (Positiv framover som vanleg, men mistar ballen litt for ofte)
Lees: 7 (Solid i midtforsvaret)
Pearce: 7 (Ditto)
Warnock: 7 (Positiv både bakover og framover, tar ansvar som kaptein)
Green: 6 (God kamp, enkelte feil)
Austin: 7 (Nestbest på Leeds og ikkje kun pga målet. Litt slurv gjer at det ikkje blir
Tonge: 6 (God andreomgang. Litt usynleg i første)
Diouf: 8 MOM (Skaper tryggleik i laget og er den mest kreative. Genial målgjevande pasning)
Varney: 5 (Usynleg i første. betre 2. omgang men fekk ikkje til det heilt store)
McCormack: 7 (Enorm arbeidsvilje, men lukkast dessverre ikkje med alt)

Ja det snur fort

5 poeng opp til playoff, 8 poeng ned til relegation, sykt jevnt i år. Blir nerve i de tre siste kampene når nesten alle kjemper mot nedrykk.... Vi bør være sikret ny sesong i wankership nå, med et bittelite drag på premiership. MOT
