I was at today’s game.
Sitting in Leeds Bradford airport waiting to board.

Great day out
3-0 win
Head neck and shoulders above 22 of the 24 teams in the Championship

I did the hospitality gig. It was super. Great day out(again)

Atmosphere was fantastic . Hopefully the expansion preserves it. It’s a third world facility/ venue at the moment. Embarrasingly so

The South Stand seemed to have picked someone out in the Coventry end, and giving him some pelters about Saville.

Obviously impossible to see from where we are, but that’s the impression I got.

Tbf Haaland often has less than 30 touches a game, Joseph had 25 today.

It's interesting how deep he comes, Piroe gets hammered for it.

Mateo comes deep as an outlet to hold the ball up.

JP used to do that but then was criticised for not stretching the play like Bamford did for Bielsa or something.

Tiz double standards :)

Leeds have faced the lowest xG (3.8), lowest xG in open play (1.8), fewest shots (47), fewest touches in their own box (67), fewest big chances (2) and have the joint most clean sheets (5) of any Championship team this season.

Farke & his team must be doing many things right.

Strange, why our match thread attracts fewer posts when we win a game comfortably.

Great win and best performance so far, closing the gap to just 2 points.

Only seen highlights as been too busy working, but match no.7 has me all excited.
Lovely attacking football, calm defending and shots to make ones mouth water.

Very pleased indeed and I now get to follow both away games at Norwich and Sunderland. 🙂🍺

Are you saying we don't have a lot of moaners?

Because the team performed the way it’s supposed to. The world is as it should be for a change. And so now we can go about our weekend without worry.

Nice to see us put together a solid performance. And it would’ve been considerably worse had we put some of our other looks away.

Here’s hoping the trend continues.
