Southend not wearing

places with one of his assistants midway through the
second-half. For Leeds, Dallas and Alioski swapped wings in the
56th min, Alioski switching back when Roberts came on at RW with
Dallas dropping to left-back. The Shrimpers changed to 4-5-1
with Robinson up-front supported by Ba on the right and Barratt
on the left, though they swapped over after the last batch of
substitutions. At this point Bwomono entered the game at RB with
Demetriou moving to midfield.

Vieira again swapped

when Díaz was subbed, with Rey now playing as the deep-lying
midfielder. For Guiseley, Halls went to RB when Moyo limped off
and then to CB at half-time with James briefly filling in at
full-back. Thompson moved infield with Morrison playing LW and
Liburd pushing on from the right to make it almost a 4-4-2.
Later Smith came on to play at RB with then trialist Felix ahead
of him, freeing James to return to midfield. There are
two unknown trialists among the home side's unused subs.
Note Will Thornton lined up against Leeds last season under his
former name of Will Wells.
-Roofe 86
For Las Palmas, Diego Parras
came on at RW and Benito switched to the left. Later they
altered to 4-5-1 upon replacing their RB with midfielder
Vicente, moving Parras to full-back and shifting Tana to the

Most newspapers stated
Derby's formation as 4-3-3 but this ignored the fact that Mount
played in a very advanced role. In the second-half they employed
Johnson as the holding midfielder with less assistance from

withdrawn, it appeared they were trying to match up Leeds'
4-1-4-1.

Preston went 4-4-1 after the
sending-off, Harrop dropping back into midfield. For Leeds,
Phillips played centre-back in the second-half with Klich
playing deeper. The visitors' double substitution took an age to
execute, spanning the 71st to 73rd minutes, causing on-field
friction that led to the bookings of Klich and Moult. Many
sources cited Davies as the PNE player booked, together with
Dallas, after a further melee late on but 'keeper Maxwell was
definitely carded for his time-wasting. The confusion may have
derived from the referee bringing both captains together
following the incident.

Pablo Quiroga, was shown a yellow card near the end under the
EFL's new disciplinary procedures for matchday staff.

on at left-wing.
-Alioski 85

After the 34th minute
substitution of Phillips, Leeds changed to three centre-backs
with Ayling moved inside and Dallas as right wing-back. However
it seemed assymetrical until Douglas was withdrawn and Alioski
tasked with mirroring Dallas' position on the left. Klich and
then Forshaw took over as the shielding midfielder, though
neither as deep as Phillips had been. Harrison and Alioski
swapped wings at half-time so Roberts moved to the right
initially when Edmondson came on. Harrison finished the game
back in his original position though, following a further
switching of the wide attackers.
-Klich 54
Reach 45
Reach 45
A fascinating tactical
battle. The opening half-hour saw Reach and Forestieri swap a
couple of times with Bannon playing as a No.10 whenever
possible. Jos Luhukay then changed to a 4-4-2 with Hector CB,
Thorniley LB, Penney LW and Forestieri partnering Fletcher. From
the restart after Reach's goal, Marcelo Bielsa responded by
deploying Phillips as an extra centre-back on the right and
dropping Klich deeper, where he remained even after Forshaw was
introduced late on.
-Roberts 51
Lining up with three
centre-backs suggests Bielsa anticipated a different formation
from the home side although he changed to a 4-1-4-1 inside
twenty minutes. For their part, Hull switched to 4-3-3 after the
enforced substitution of Irvine with Lichaj RB, Burke LCB and a
midfield trio of Stewart, Henriksen and Kane. Later they sent on
two strikers and went 4-4-2 with Bowen and Kane wide. Leeds
responded by reverting to their original shape. This time
Forshaw played as the holding midfielder when he came on. Dallas
initially introduced on the right, soon had to cover the loss of
Douglas so Shackleton took over RW.

one game ban and a £1,000 fine for his criticism of the referee
in an interview with Sky immediately after the final whistle. In
contrast Brentford's Sergi Canós escaped FA punishment when a
three man commission did not unanimously agree his apparent
headbutt on Alioski, as the Macedonian sought to retrieve the
ball from the Bees' dugout, was a punishable offence.

Dallas and Berardi swapped
positions from the 15th minute with the Ulsterman discomforted
by the direct running of Armstrong. Both were subbed in the
closing stages, the full-back duties passing to Shackleton and
Alioski. Roofe and Roberts temporarily switched from the 33rd
minute until half-time. Dack led the line for Blackburn after
Graham went off, with Brereton on the right and Reed moving
inside. Conway replaced the latter just before the winner in
what became a flat five across the middle. The goal was scored
on exactly 69 minutes; Hernández came on 61 seconds later but
still prior to the restart.
-Roofe 22 Cooper 66
Dallas played right
wing-back and Ayling moved inside when Berardi was forced off.
On the later substitutions, Klich and Alioski moved forward to
take the positions of the departing players with Forshaw and
Pearce dropping in behind. For Ipswich, Ward played on the right
side with Nolan switching to the left. Then when Edwards
replaced Sears, they altered to 4-1-4-1 with Skuse/Chalobah
holding, Nolan central and Edwards on the left. Their
sacrificing a striker encouraged Leeds to revert to that
formation themselves with Phillips and Forshaw in more advanced
roles.
-Roofe 82
Robinson 11
Robinson 11
A game that will be
remembered for Leeds' controversial late equaliser via Roofe's
arm. Much earlier when Ayling hobbled off, Dallas switched
flanks with Pearce coming on in his customary left-back
position. When the sub was himself subbed, Alioski moved to
left-back and Hernández to left-wing with Clarke slotting in on
the right. At the same time Sáiz replaced Phillips and Forshaw
became the defensive midfielder. Forest sub Dawson also took
over the captain's armband when he came on for the injured Fox,
the only slight positional change being that he played as the
right-sided centre-back.

In the opening quarter-hour,
Wigan seemed to be 4-4-2 before settling into a 4-4-1-1 with
Windass behind Garner. In the early stages, Phillips was thus
prone to drop deep if Leeds were out of possession to satisfy
Bielsa's preference for a spare defender. With their
substitutions, the Latics' front two became McMananam supporting
Windass and finally, Vaughan up top with Windass back in the
hole. Other changes at this time saw McManaman move to LW, Da
Silva Lopes to RW, Byrne to RB and James to CM. Liam Cooper
played most of the first-half in an unnumbered shirt after
suffering a bloodied nose.

As at Wigan but to a greater
extent, it was not obvious which position Phillips was playing.
He did not appear to have a clearly defined centre-back role but
nonetheless, spent much of the game chasing back to fill holes
in the back line caused by the high positions of the full-backs.
With Robson-Kanu and Barnes running through the inside channels
and Rodriguez playing almost as a "false 9", the Albion forwards
posed a conundrum for the Leeds defence that was never
satisfactorily resolved. Note that Alioski was again switched to
left wing-back after Douglas was withdrawn.

■■Brownhill 55
Phillips seemed poised to
play as a third centre-back until it became apparent that
Paterson was dropping back into the hole. Bristol City reacted
to Brownhill's sending off by deploying Weimann on the right,
Paterson (later Eisa) on the left and playing Diedhiou through
the middle in a 4-4-1 come 4-2-3 formation. For Leeds, Hernández
switched wings when Harrison replaced Alioski. Meanwhile
Phillips moved to centre-back when Halme was sacrificed to
accommodate Sáiz, with Forshaw anchoring the midfield.
-Dallas 60

Hernández switched to the

McNulty.
-Hernández 82
This game saw perhaps the
truest implementation yet of Bielsa's fabled 3-3-1-3 but
uncharacteristically, the opposition having the greater share of
possession. When Cooper was taken off, Halme played as the right
centre-back with Phillips moving to the left. Hernández and
Roofe swapped positions just short of the half hour mark. Clarke
initially directly replaced Alioski on the left but switched
wings with Roofe between the 70th and 85th mins. Hernández and
then Dallas took over the captaincy. For the Blades, McGoldrick
moved to the No.10 position when Washington joined Sharp
up-front.

also taking on the captaincy for the closing stages. For QPR,
Wszolek and Freeman swapped around the hour mark until the
former was subbed. From that point, Osayi-Samuel played on the
right and Freeman returned to the left.
-Bamford 66
When Clarke came on at LW,
Alioski moved to the right with Hernández switching inside.
However Clarke and Alioski swapped over between the 57th and
65th minutes and from the 77th minute onwards. Jansson again
took the captain's armband from the departing Hernández. For
Bolton, Öztümer played in the hole with Vela dropping back to
cover the position vacated by Williams.

withdrawn. Hull's wide men, Bowen and Grosicki, swapped circa
34th minute. The latter was later booked after he had left the
pitch following a confrontation with Jansson who was seeking to
hurry his slothful exit; the Leeds man also being carded. Toral
played as the main forward when he came on with Keane in the
supporting role.

Surprisingly Marcelo Bielsa
opted against any defensive reinforcement or reshuffle when
Phillips was sent-off, carrying on as a 3-1-4-1. Perhaps due to
the lack of experienced options on the bench, the daring stategy
remained even after Leeds had turned round Forest's lead. Later
chasing the game once more, Roberts replaced Douglas. Alioski
then went to left-back and Hernández to left-wing with the new
arrival slotting in to play just behind Roofe. Following the
very early injury to Hefele, Forest brought midfielder Guédioura
on 35 seconds before their opening goal. Yacob reverted to
centre-back.

saw a besieged Derby switch to 4-4-2 at half-time by pairing
Nugent with Marriott, moving Holmes to right-back and playing
Lawrence and Mount in the wide positions. Later Jozefzoon came
on at right-wing with Lawrence shifting inside. Leeds belatedly
responded to the visitors' changes by going 3-3-3-1 with Ayling
as the extra centre-back, sub Shackleton and Alioski as
wing-backs and Hernández on the left. By the end he had swapped
wings to replace Clarke, with Davis on at left wing-back and
Alioski further forward.

have been the cue for Hernández to play centrally once more.
However the almost immediate sending-off of Jansson forced him
to cover at right-back when Stoke had the ball as Ayling was now
playing as a centre-back.

subbed until Hernández signalled that he could not continue and
the board was changed. For the final seconds, Davis was

Byers-Grimes-Celina. Later substitutions were like-for-like and
modified their attack to Narsingh-McBurnie-Asoro. For Leeds,

Hernández and Harrison
swapped wings at half-time with the latter returning to the left
with the introduction of Dallas for Roberts. From this point,
Hernández played a central role. Former Leeds loanee Will
Buckley came on in the same break of play as Dallas but almost
as an after-thought such that technically, he didn't enter the
field until the 82nd minute. Bolton manager Phil Parkinson was
shown a red card following a 69th minute melee after Alioski was
fouled directly in front of the Leeds bench. Magennis was also
booked for the original foul and Williams cautioned for
retaliating to Klich squirting a water bottle over him. Both
teams were subsequently fined by the FA for their part in the
incident and Parkinson given a two-game touchline ban.
-Freeman
49
Leeds had to play with ten
men from the 39th to the 45th[+1] minute due to Cooper having
stitches to a wound above his eye, Phillips as usual filling in
at the back. This also resulted in the United skipper playing
the second-half in an unnumbered shirt. The first substitution
saw Alioski move to right-wing, Hernández tuck inside and Klich
drop back to defensive midfield. Meanwhile the final change of
Brown for Alioski meant the supporting quartet was shuffled
again to become Hernández/Roberts/Brown/Harrison. QPR who had
lost their previous seven Championship fixtures, brought on
Osayi-Samuel on the left allowing match-winner Freeman to enjoy
a spell in the free role vacated by Eze.

Harrison played in an
unnumbered shirt from the 38th minute to half-time due to a
blood injury. Alioski was man-marking Harper in the second-half,
increasingly pushing into midfield so to do. After taking a
left-wing corner in the 59th minute, Hernández swapped wings
briefly with Harrison - the pair returning to their default
positions at the restart after the third goal. West Brom brought
on Field at this point, having introduced Morrison less than a
minute before Bamford struck. Livermore took over from Barry as
captain for the Baggies, also adopting the central pivot
position with Morrison on the left of the midfield. With their
final change, Montero came on as the left-sided attacker with
Gayle switching to the right. Marcelo Bielsa was booked in the
80th minute for reacting to a challenge by Gayle on Klich, which
had gone unpunished.
-Bamford 9
For Bristol City, Semenyo
played centrally from around the 35th minute after swapping with
Paterson. Hernández played in an unnumbered shirt for most of
the first-half after his original jersey was torn. When Dallas
came on at right-wing, Hernández moved inside and Roberts took
over from Bamford up-top. Later Douglas replaced Harrison with
the customary redeployment of Alioski to play in front of the
Scot. Leeds' final substition saw Beradi come on to facilitate a
change to 3-3-3-1 with Ayling and Douglas as wing-backs. This
was possibly prompted by Bristol having a more 4-4-2 look about
them with Taylor now supporting Diedhiou.
-Klich 14
Hernández 22, 43
Hernández 22, 43
When Douglas replaced Klich,
Alioski moved up to left-wing, Harrison swapped to the right and

positions from the 26th minute to half-time. Their first
substitution saw Swift drop back alongside Baker, Loader take
over as the "10", Méïte have another spell up-top and Harriott
come on at right-wing. Shortly after, Olise was introduced on
the left but he finished the game as the attacking central
midfielder when Loader gave way to a winger in McCleary.
-Basham
71
A crucial promotion showdown
dominated by Leeds but decided by a counter-attack, culminating
in Chris Basham's crisp finish, midway through the second-half.
As usual, Alioski moved forward when Douglas came on at
left-back. Clarke was later brought on to play on the opposite
flank with Hernández moving inside. With the Blades protecting a
lead, McGoldrick was dropping deep in the closing stages so his
replacement with a midfielder altered little. In contrast Leeds
had lost their shape by this point. Jansson, beset by a knee
injury, was playing as a forward with Phillips trying to cover
for him at the back. This was of course prior to Jansson donning
Casilla's jersey and gloves in injury-time after the sweeper
keeper was sent-off for bringing down Sharp.

Ledson, at which point Johnson took over on the wing. Finally
Stockley was brought on up top for the final minutes with Moult
shifting to the right. By comparison Leeds' changes were
straight forward with Alioski moving forward when Berardi came
on at left-back. More pedantically it could be noted that
Forshaw for Roberts allowed Klich to play more as the "10".

■Kipré 14
The notorious Good Friday
fixture where Leeds' hopes of automatic promotion began to
unravel. Wigan became the first team to beat Bielsa's men after
conceding the first goal; their victory all the more remarkable
as it was achieved with the handicap of an early red card for
Kipré for the dubious handball decision that gave rise to the
missed penalty. Paul Cook initially reacted by moving James to
centre-back and Evans dropping deeper. Then they changed to
three at the back (James/Dunkley/Naismith), pushed Massey up
with Clarke and asked Byrne and Robinson to provide the width as
the most energetic of wing-backs. From their perspective, it
worked magnificently though the nature of the goals given up to
Massey will long haunt United. In the second-half the Latics
brought on Olsson to play in the middle of their defence,
freeing James to return to midfield. Now with a lead to protect,
they had sacrificed a forward and were effectively 5-3-1. Their
next sub Powell, normally a midfielder, inherited the lone
striker role until Garner came on in injury-time. Leeds had made
two like-for-like changes at half-time to try and wrestle back
control while their last substitution saw Clarke replace Klich;
Hernández thereafter playing through the middle.
-Maupay
45 Canós 62
This was rendered a must-win
game by Sheffield United's victory at Hull prior to the kick-off
at Griffin Park. Leeds' hopes of doing so were hindered when a
seemingly clear penalty for a trip on Bamford was not awarded,
while the concession of the opening goal just before half-time
proved a blow they were unable to recover from. Harrison swapped
over to the right from the 40th minute until Clarke came on for
Jansson after Leeds fell further behind. Thereafter Forshaw
played as a centre-back, Klich was the designated defensive
midfielder but Hernández, freed from the wings, often dropped
deeper still to try and start attacks. Brentford subtly changed
to 3-4-2-1 at the end with their subs, Emiliano and Dasilva,
playing narrower and more withdrawn than Watkins and Canós had
been.
