Gutted there is no Waghorn,just dont get the Nugent selection at all,out of all the players against WBA he was so poor

Rather of seen Lawrence down the middle with Bennett starting,that said its obvious Marriott is well down the pecking order if he cant get in front of Nugent 

This is bad news

I'm no tactician but I suspect the instruction is for Nugent to run himself ragged for 50-60 minutes creating the spaces for Mount, Wilson, and Lawrence to exploit.

One thing you can say about Nugent is that he knows how to follow instructions and is unselfish.

[BarrowRam]

Getting nervous now. Gutted waghorn never made it. Hopefully nugent can do a good job for us. Just watched the we are Derby poem video. Come on the rams.

He also should know by now to pass it to virtually anybody else - rather than to shoot. Well, unless the ball is literally on the goal line...

His England goal ?

[Phuket Ram]

Just hope we don't sit back. This game is too big to let it slip away. Big big game, needs big big players. Mentally there's no excuse for not turning up today. COME ON LADS! LET'S DO THIS!!!

[i-Ram]

I am glad that Nuge is playing. It would have been the last thing Bielsa would have expected.

Not expecting him to score, but Nugent is still a very tidy player who can help knit things together. More important today that Mount, Lawrence and Wilson are on the front foot.

He seems to have lost his shooting boots but is a very busy player who should move their defenders arround and create openings. COYR

[hintonsboots]

Prediction: Nuge to charge down a goal kick to score......at the Leeds end hopefully.???

[RadioactiveWaste]

How Leeds biased have sky been?

I've got the sound off.

[SaintRam]

I'm watching ESPN+, even though the commentary is pretty basic, it harbors no bias.

Although they did just mistakenly say that Nugent has just one goal this season. Not that the truth improves the sentiment too much ? 

[SaintRam]

5 minutes gone, no chances for either team.

[SaintRam]

Chance for Nugent. Well defended. Corner results.

[SaintRam]

Malone tries to chest it back to Roos, but he has no flesh to soften the impact onto his ribs and it fires behind for a corner.

[Pearl Ram]

Mount was waiting for the pass from Lawrence there. Bad choice. 

[Van der MoodHoover]

Good shot from Leeds. We're playing ok but I think we could try and move them around more.

There's a Leeds bloke next to me in the pub.

They are starting to play well in midfield worryingly...

[alexxxxx]

Leeds look quite dangerous
