I'll never moan about the Albion, apart from dyslexic numbered row in E stand, but we've got to be more adventurous, Skalak doesn't look really interested and Knocky should be pissing all over these NL halfwits.
Rant over :)

CH has got this 4-5-1 formation completely wrong. Needs to be 4-4-2 (and in the prem). Also knockaert attempted to head butt the linesman. Red card would have been fair enough.

Leeds have made 9 changes from their starting 11 at Sunderland.

There's been a massive sea change in the last couple of years, where even Championship managers don't take this cup seriously in the early rounds. It just used to the PL top six that did that.

It's mid August and Leeds are so obsessed with getting to the PL, that their first eleven are wrapped up in cotton wool. They only have say a 3 in 12 chance of making it, but never the less everything is built around promotion to the $$$$ next May.

At home, I agree. Though at the moment we don't have enough strikers to play 4-4-2

Playing 4-5-1 at home to Barnet... Fair enough if you're getting the first team used to playing the formation but can't see the point in this instance.

The sprinklers also looked really good under the new lighting.

Nope, that's it.

Nobody out there wants a Loan move by the looks of it

Slow and pedestrian other than knockaert who is trying to influence the game

Easiest 45 mins of the season for the Barnet right back...

Is that influence the game by getting sent off... Hughton was furious with him when he squared up the the lino, disgraceful behaviour!

442 in the PL would get destroyed. It needs to be one mobile striker who can actually score at that level, with support at pace from at least one in CM and widemen. 3's needed in the middle to win the CM battle.

I'd imagine that if that's the system that CH wants to go with this season then he will use it in all games to get the whole of the squad used to it.

Don't Burnley play 4-4-2? They've managed to make it work...
