The LUFC Breakfast Debate (Wed 12th Sept)

Good Morning Everyone

Mateusz Klich came off the bench last night to score an 87th Minute equaliser as Poland snatched a draw against the Republic of Ireland.




The betting odds are in for Saturdays clash at the New Den. Leeds are 23/20 favourites, whilst Millall are 23/10 (slightly better than 2 to 1.

The draw is 12/5. A nil - nil draw seems good value at 10/1.




Our worst fears were realised yesterday when it was announced that Patrick Bamford would be out of action for the remainder of the year due to his ACL injury.

Anterior cruciate ligament injury is when the anterior cruciate ligament is either stretched, partially torn, or completely torn. The most common injury is a complete tear.

Fortunately Izzy Brown can play as a forward; we just need to get him fit.

Good Matt & everyone

It will be interesting to see if Brown is as effective for us as he was for Huddersfield

Leeds players all did well on International duty. BPF got his first full cap and many think he did well unless you are ex-Arsenal player. Pontus captained his country, Dallas scored a belter, Klich scored a belter, Alioski scored in both games and Tyler Roberts got his debut for Wales

For a championship club to have six players on full international duty is impressive.

I thought I read that Bamford had done his PCL not ACL. I'd expect an ACL injury to take him out for the rest of the season not 4 months.

It is reported as being a PCL injury HB. The PCL is stronger than the ACL so I don't know what that means for his recovery time, but as you say 4 months has been quoted.
