Leeds are a hard working industrial team. They press highly and agressively as most Bielsa teams like to play. They have a very good CB in Ben White and a decent CM in Kalvin Phillips both having good seasons with them. I think they will have a dilemma of who to play upfront as they previously rotated between Bamford and Nketiah. Now that Nketiah has returned would they risk Bamford as he seems their only striker option at the moment. Unless they play the highly rated Jack Clark who signedsfor Tottenham inithe summer or Tyler Roberts. I would like to see Saka Martinelli and Nelson play as our front 3. We may even see Tolaji Bola get a chance at LB. Holding and Mustafi should get an opportunity at CB with a midfield pivot of Guendouzi and Willock. It will be interesting to see if the squad players can replicate the feats of the first team players from a tactical perspective. If Bellerin and Ceballos are fit, they should also play.

Man just the difference in demeanor and charisma in comparison to that Basque fraud Emery. Never looked forward to press conferences until Arteta cam in.

Terrible hot takes
Why do people wanna play Dani?
Showed nothing or worse for us, granted Arteta might work his Magic...

We are only keeping him warm for Real to sell to some midlevel team anyway

Because we have little options to rotate for this game? He's here, might as well try and get some use out of him, even if it's to give Xhaka/Torreira a breather.

Has nketiah already played for Leeds in the FA Cup and is he cup tied? Any chance of playing against them?

Mustafi & John Jules in if Bellerin & Martinelli aren’t fit.

Would like all the recent starters rested and wouldn’t be surprised to see Leeds rest a few and prioritise the league too.

The last time Leeds came to The Emirates for a late cup tie kickoff, The King of Highbury sent them packing.

That was a sublime finish :drool:
