Game is at ER on Wednesday 9th August with a KO of 7.45pm
Hopefully we get 20k+ crowd.
They are basically a mid-table L1 side and the game could see us come up against our academy star Noah Kenneh.
I would pick the following team which is more than good enough o go through:
Darlow
Allen Cresswell Hjelde Byram
Shackleton Gyabi
Poveda Geldhart Gnonto
Perkins
Subs (It is at ER): KK, Ayling, Stuijk , Chilokoa-Mullen, Spencer, Costa, James, Bate, Sinistera
Key takes from the match.
Gelthardt finally got that goal he needs for confidence.
Ayling's age has him seeming not good enough even for League 1.
Shackleton is a System player, the stricter the system requirements the more at home he looks. Future manager in him.
Gyabi looking more comfortable.
The whole team looked mads as hell with the deflection going in.
35,129 Crowd - Amazing!! 73% possesion, 20+ shots on goal. Just need to find our shooting boots
Kin ell we got Salford away in the next round.... Mancscums little sister!
That'll kick off.... 🥊🥊🥊🥊
Plenty of shots, only 25% on target, so need to find our shooting boots.
But well done boys, a win's a win. MOT💙💛
Poveda, James ,Ampadu & Gray all sounded like they had good games..
Get innn
2-1 Strujic from a corner
JOFFY--😁
1-1 Poveda shot,keeper pushes it out and bounced of Joffy and in ..positive start to 2nd half ..
Byram & Strujic on for Hjelde & Gyabi ..Ampadu moves into midfield ..
Every team we face just knows we'll offer them a goal or two.
This has been going on for the best part of 2 years.
How and when will we be able to root out all those defensive frailties, I don't know.
People should aknowledge/understand that despite Saturday's turnaround and good second half performance, and put things into perspective that it was against a fairly poor (mediocre at best) Cardiff City.
Even if we do manage to turn it around against Shrewsbury, there remains so much work to do with this team.
It also confirms that at least some of those on the "fringes" of the team are perhaps not all ready for this level (let alone the Premiership).
FFS LEEDS----They have there goal we need our 3 NOW--😥
0-1
1-0 to Shrews
Leeds United: Karl Darlow;
Jamie Shackleton, Luke Ayling, Charlie Cresswell, Leo Hjelde;
