Did you see Rutters chance ? one on one with the keeper... first half. nearly fell over when he struck the ball... keeper decent save but it should have been a goal. if that was Piroe one on one he was in the back of the net.. trouble is he was busy playing further back as a 10...

Farke says Piroe likes to come from deep but I `m not sure it means playing as a 10.
Not that I know more than Farke btw.
Rutter cannot lead the line as he does not posses the skills to do that imo.
Piroe needs to lead the line with Rutter playing the 10 if he has to play him.
We should have signed a 10 that`s for sure along with a LB.
James might be ok to come on a as sub with 15/20 to go and Ayling once Spence is fit is a squad player.

funny how nobody moaned about piroe at 10 after Ipswich or millwall......
not saying you're wrong mind.....

I'd say the jury is out at the moment on it... for me we've signed the best striker in the championship, he's prem quality and we're playing him at 10.. it has worked in a couple of games and not worked in a couple so it's definitely jury out time...

Rutter has done pretty well and i love his attitude, but he has missed a few sitters which if you'd put Piroe in those areas he would have taken them 99% of the time. Piroe doesn't have the pace of Rutter which i get, but i think you have to have your best goal scorer up front surely.. i suspect though Farke thinks because we don't have an out and out 10, Piroe at 10 and Rutter at 9 are possibly the best options at the moment.. I think if we struggle to score Saturday he will need to change it. I think Summerville could be a good 10 if he just starts being a bit better when he releases the ball.

I met Rutter yesterday by the way, daughter got a photo with him. Lovely lad, very friendly. His car is unreal... Lambo Urus in matt purple..

Piroe's got 3 goals in 4 games, there will be games where he misses chances and doesnt score, just like they'll be games where Rutter scores. I'm not concerned.

It`s true what you guys are saying about Piroe/Rutter and one or the other will have off days and another time bang them in.
At the moment Rutter is very Bamford and not the type of forward I like to see, personal preference only.
One thing is we are heading in the right direction and if we can stay top 8 until January and buy the right player or 3 we should be making the playoffs at least.

Got tickets for tomorrow, looking forward to it, not been to a game for about 18 months.

Nice one bud. Could be a tight one, enjoy the game. Fancy us to win 2-0

Can see us bringing in a 10 and a left back in Jan.

Not good news on gnonto he could be out a few weeks

We do seem to have some bad luck with injuries.
I`m going for an impressive 3-1 today which should be fun as I`m with Watfords club solicitor and some of their big wigs .

rutter was unplayable today.
kamara a great full debut. fantastic performance

Top top game by Rutter today and I`m beginning to think I misjudged him.
Think you said the same as me Tad but he has made me eat my words and long may it continue.
Byram, Ampadu and Kamara very good.
Anthony will only get better.
James rocks and diamonds along with Summerville who caused them problems but needs to use his left leg now and then.
Ayling nearly gave me my prediction of 3-1.
If only he played a bit longer than 10 minutes
I also think their manager messed up changing their formation second half.

amazing what playing regularly and confidence does. playing at a lower level helps too.
all credit to farke. done an amazing job.
wonder if ayling is now a back up player?

Absolutely brilliant performance. Should have had 5 goals if not for their keeper.

Rutter was incredible, he’s a better creator than a finisher that’s for sure but you can really see the confidence oozing through now. Like we’ve said above it’s amazing what playing games does. He’s looking like a level above.

Delighted Anthony too, took his goal well. He’ll be important with losing gnonto for a month. Kamara was superb for his debut, looks very good, another good decision by Farke to bring him in and rest Gray.

Southampton away next, they seem on the ropes a bit. Could do with Ipswich and Preston to start dropping points soon, there’s a fair gap still, still early though

I really liked the Farke interview after the game published on Leeds Live.
Basically saying he has told Rutter not to show the opponents up too much and instead of doing back flicks that might not come off look for the simple pass first. Or words to that effect.
Very measured response by Farke.
