Leeds were impressive (bar their finishing) and were far from down at 2-0, had we got a third I think the second half, or most of it, would have been different.
City away is the best we have played for quite a while, hopefully after Sunday's game Moyes will be happy with the performance, rather than the usual 'we can play better, need to keep the ball better' etc.
Hard to predict Sunday as it's hard to say what teams will turn up.

Leeds fully deserved to lose last night because, as someone has already mentioned, their wanky fucking man bun, razor sriped haircuts along with bum fluff beards. Not like out Craig Dawson, slightly balding, bit of a comb over going on, real man's haircut. So with all of those stats spelt out you can see why we deserved to win. I just wish Fornals rocket had flown in as well.

Hard to know against United. We will be away and I think Moyesiah may have to employ 5 at the back again and bring Johnson into the fold to start the game at least?. Its defensive but with Antonio playing we do have an outlet and I assume Benrahma or Bowen will take Lingards place ?
Its stopping Fernandes, Rashford, Greenwood and Martial depending who they play as I think they are in Europe this week?
We do not IMO have the mobility and players as a team to take the game to teams and dominate possession. In fact we do not do that against anyone. We can have periods, if we are not pressed too hard, where we keep the ball and create things from the back but any team that presses us high and we struggle and rely on the counter as we have seen including last night.
Anyway, would be happy for a draw this coming Saturday

Thought we edged the 1st half.... they were better the 2nd... we looked pretty leggy last quarter... Leeds very pleasing on the eye and play some good shit but we looked dangerous on the break... few things going our way at the moment which happens in football the same as when it doesn't... end of the day it's not our fault that Bamford had a off day in front of goal so thank you very much another three points in the onion... MotM for me was dawson followed by Cresswell... bring on the Red mancs

If you remember when Leicester won the league there were quite a few games when they were outplayed by the opposition but always seemed to turn it in their favour.
We're doing the same grinding out results when not particularly playing well.
That's the sign of a very good team.

Agreed about Rob Green, articulate, non cliched, humorous and dresses well too
Carragher was fairly decent and complimentary about us also

It was a very open game, really enjoyable to watch actually.

The cup game was different though
We had no striker
We had three players go off injured - we ended the game with one recognised centre back on the pitch
Until they scored we were doing ok second half
They still had to bring their first team off the bench to beat us
I reckon we’ll do better at the weekend

Have to agree Rob Green was excellent. Far more substance to him than the usual cardboard cut-outs on offer.

Before the games I would have taken 6 points from Spurs, Man City, Leeds and Man Utd so to have them with a game to spare is blinding.
Let's hope its 7 or even 9 on Sunday night ⚒⚒⚒

Green has a cracking personality deserves to be on every football talk show for sure .
As for for match really enjoyed it think we played well good to see some luck going our way at last along the way
Bit of a swagger about us ...at last!

Great to see us get a gutsy win despite playing below par. Saving it for ManU perhaps, we did ok there in the cup, and without Lingard.
Down side for me is that once again we can only list 8 subs and 2 of those are keepers. Probably the only premiership side to do this and demonstrates what needs to be done in the summer WITHOUT sacrificing our best players!!

Also a bit of a lesson for Sky and their obsession with Scouse interviews & pundits
Superb interview from Rice, VERY impressive young man.
And not sure how many stayed on to watch the extended interview with Rob Green talking through his career incl the 2010 World Cup & Mr Capello.
I know he does some commentary on 5Live but he should be on tv much more.

I mean ridiculous to think about it but is Dawson in with a shout for HOTY...
I would love to see what the stats say with him in the side but the last losses in the league I can remember is are Man City, Liverpool and Chelsea before Xmas! Amazing run
