Not sure how Marsch has them playing, but the new manager syndrome has hopefully worn off. Will be a difficult match but one we should be winning. Having already played Leipzig this year hopefully there's some tactical familiarity that will help inform our approach.

We will not see the the same attacking Leeds of bielsa so they will stack behind the ball and we will have to break down them down .

Last thing kdb needs is a rest he's thriving on all these big games atm last thing we want is for him to lose rhythm

Good rest period to the Leeds game then same gap to the 2nd leg.

will be interesting to see how Pep goes but I think if the performance stats say KDB, Bernardo etc are good to go they’ll play every ‘must win’ game. Start strongest team possible and make changes if the score line allows it.

KDB can rest once we re 2-0 around 60th minute. not before.

Strongest team, every game. Obviously City winning the title is the main thing to us, but we can’t allow Liverpool to clean up and we’re the only ones left standing in front of them (Chelsea could do them in the FA Cup). The players have got decent rest times for the next few weeks, 4 days in between games, that’s fine for recovery.

Play our strongest team. No question.

Just a pity Leeds aren't completely safe from relegation.

Absolutely spot on mate

Cancelo returning to the side will make a big difference , two natural full backs ,Dias with another game under his belt , woudl prefer Ake in for Laporte because Ake is the player in form , as for the front six players perm any from a dozen players and we will get the job done.
Leeds cannot play with ten men behind the ball , its not their style if we dont make any mistakes at the back we will score a couple of goals and it will be down to just four games and time running out for the team with all the greatest players in the world that has just achieved one title in seven years under Clubshopklopp
