Ohh for certain but the sad reality is they both are two sides of one coin. Eithers talents dont emerge in the other. I wonder if they could work together. I mean we are playing three midfielders and quite direct and are short on wingers. Burnley would be a great test for that

We have a decent run coming up so points on the board hopefully. We are competing apart from Arsenal and I, like most, came into this season with just avoid relegation and watching us play I feel like that has abated a lot, especially with Farkes system changes which I wasn't sure he would make

Yeah those headed down balls DCL almost always wins and Piroe no matter what just shoots on target. I know he didn't really work as a ten but he played with Joseph and DCL is a ball winner

I would like to see Bijol also. We have the best defensive header of the ball on the bench. There is nothing wrong with a little versatility. Need DCL firing though and Struijk incredibly unlucky yesterday

Feel for Pascal though, very unlucky with both goals, in different circumstances we are talking about his last ditch tackles. We were a good side again and the run of luck with Fulham, Bournemouth and this could get us down but focus on our performances, we will do fine.

Daniel Farke has us playing a good brand of football. We're creating chances and pressing effectively. The core of this squad is strong, and with a few changes available, Gnonto soon and Bijol if needed, we can push on and secure our place in the Premier League. #LUFC #MOT #ALAW

Looking forward, we have to address the attack. We created chances, but a clinical finisher is a must. Dominic Calvert-Lewin had a couple of good looks but needs to be more ruthless. We also need to work on how we handle direct, fast attacks.

Guglielmo Vicario was a thorn in our side. He made a massive save with his feet to deny Dominic Calvert-Lewin, and then in stoppage time, he pulled off another brilliant stop from Joël Piroe's shot. He was the difference, honestly.

Our equaliser came from a brilliant piece of play. Jayden Bogle whipped in a cross, Calvert-Lewin laid it off perfectly, and Brenden Aaronson's shot was parried for Okafor to pounce. It was a deserved equaliser that showed our fighting spirit.

A couple of moments of individual brilliance, and a lot of luck, decided the game. Joe Rodon's header hit the post early on. Then, a couple of cruel deflections off Pascal Struijk on both Spurs goals left Karl Darlow stranded.

The key tactical battle was Farke's man-marking against Thomas Frank's direct, right-sided attack. While Spurs managed to exploit space down their right flank, particularly with Kudus's dribbling, we also won our individual duels, with Noah Okafor running Pedro Porro ragged all game.

We dominated the stats, with an xG of 1.66 compared to Spurs' paltry 0.52. We had more shots (12 to 8), and more corners. Daniel Farke's aggressive pressing strategy paid off, as we consistently put pressure on Spurs' backline, forcing them into mistakes.

Yesterday at Elland Road was a tough one to swallow. We lost 2-1 to Tottenham, ending our year-long unbeaten home run in the league. It was a game of two halves, but ultimately, a frustrating one that hinged on some cruel luck.

Exactly as we all expected. With injuries the team picks itself. #LUFC

Yeah i think we were all a little suprised but Farke didnt trust him. Would be nice to have that flair option

Van de Ven and Romero are big and strong but Lewin is better in the air and they all travel back from a rough game away at Bodo in which they were second best.
#LUFC

If we hit them hard and fast with the home support behind us they will revert to their fail safe which is basically give the ball to Kudus. I really think we can win this and I have a feeling a low scoring with a controlling header from DCL down to Okafor running deep will unlock them.
