So Big Dave bites the bullet and plays 4 at the back and this happens, less tippy tippy less possession more direct, counter attacking football and we cried out for four at the back
Dave now perhaps you will listen
Josh Matt at the express and star said it was a 4-3-3

Leeds will have no fear coming into this one, and Big Dave will come under a lot of pressure if we don’t get at least a point. We’ve got some decent players, and we can score goals, there’s no question about that, but a fragile midfield and, even worse, mystifyingly sticking to three at the back against all the evidence will be Dave’s undoing. There’s no excuse whatsoever for some of the defeats we’ve suffered.
If he plays three at the back again today and we lose, I for one won’t stick up for him any more.
As I was saying, this was always a nailed-on win for Albion against a Leeds team who didn’t fancy their chances, and Big Dave has cracked it.
WTF do I know?

Aries you weren't alone mucker
Make no bones if we had played 3 at the back and tried to pass out of the defence we would have lost,
Thankgod big Dave woke up and smelt the roses

The match report says 443 as well so I’ll go along with that.
I read from someone who was there that it was 442 but obviously not.

Interesting reading some of the pre-match comments on here. Great performance from the team and management with Bielsa acknowledging that we got our tactics spot on......who'd have thought it. HRK was excellent, as were Hegazi, Dawson and Phillips. Again, who'd have thought it.

4 at the back!! Hallelujah. Much much better but still conceded. I actually thought Johnstone could have done better with it but a great performance and a fantastic win. Well Done BD, Well Done Albion.

HELP PLEASE! I got home and my effing useless piece of shit talk talk box had only recorded 3 sodding minutes then as always when it’s an important match crapped out and failed to record I nearly chucked it out the effing window so does anyone know if anywhere on sky or internet catch up anything they will give me a chance to see the match full replay I’m desperate and desolate please help if you can
RE: WBA vs Leeds - Match Thread - GlassEyedBomber - 10-11-2018
Just got in from the game
what an experience!Didn't want to go this morning because I thought we would defo get beat.
J Rod was outstanding but where did that performance from Hal come from? Everything stuck to him, he used his strength well and a good finish.
Good to know we have another player to call on to cause mischief when needed, hope he gets a good run in the team now and he applies himself in exactly the same manner as today.

Thanks baggie one but I was wondering if sky rerun the full match or does anyone rerun it I have sky as part of my crap talk talk subscription it’s just that either the box goes tits up or the internet connection drops out and you come home from work to a failed recording I’m so sick of it cos it never happens when it’s a game you don’t care about the match that’s on ?☹️
