‘Surely’ – Leeds United fans on Cardiff City romp, prediction, player ‘too good’ for division and useful extra

What did Leeds United’s supporters think of the team’s 7-0 thumping of Cardiff City, their largest win since the Don Revie era? Our YEP Jury’s thoughts on Saturday afternoon’s spectacular Championship win are as follows: they praised a player who was “too good” for the Championship, promoted race prediction, and saluted a helpful Whites extra.

This game is summed up in two songs.The South Stand sang, “Who put the ball in the Cardiff net? Half the ******* team did,” after “The Magnificent Seven” (the Clash).In summary: 29 shots on goal, a huge chance squandered by Largie Ramazani, a fantastic solo goal by substitute Willy Gnonto, four goal involvements from Joel Piroe, three assists each from Junior Firpo and Dan James, six different scorers, and a respectable save from Monsieur Meslier.

This was just as good as the demolition that took place on Elland Road versus Southampton 53 years ago. Every player was playing at the highest level throughout this outstanding team performance, and manager Daniel Farke was able to make the five replacements he had requested, which rested individuals while preserving the team’s cohesiveness.

Farke continues to run his Leeds machine. Overall, the best way to describe the match is to use the lyrics of another song.”Perfect Day.”Dan James was the man of the match.

Leeds United supporters had not witnessed such a resounding victory in 53 years. This season, Daniel Farke’s team has had multiple chances to score additional goals against rival teams, but they have conserved their energy after taking a commanding lead.
