Leeds face Plymouth Argyle before international break

A chance to end on a high before the international break.

Transcript

00:00 Leeds vs Plymouth, last game before the international break.

00:06 Forgetting about the Leicester game, but looking ahead to that, it's a good chance to close that before the international break

00:13 and have a real bit of positivity despite whatever happens against Leicester.

00:18 I think so, yeah. Obviously we're speaking here before the Leicester game, so a lot depends really what happens with that one.

00:23 But the fact is, that's the fixture that will be in front of them to head into the international break.

00:27 You've got to be honest, it does look like quite a good fixture to sign off with.

00:30 But that said, absolutely no mugs whatsoever, Plymouth.

00:34 The thing is, a lot of fans might look at that and think, well, obviously Leeds just completely steamrolled Huddersfield,

00:40 who are a team fighting relegation, and it might be the same against Plymouth.

00:42 But I don't think it will be at all. I don't think they'll be anywhere near as bad as Huddersfield.

00:45 Hopefully, from Leeds' point of view, they get the same sort of outcome, performance and especially first-half display.

00:50 But they're a decent enough outfit, Plymouth.

00:53 I think when they came up, a lot of people thought they might be straight back down and they might still go back down.

00:57 But they're certainly making a good fist of it. They've got a good young manager in Stephen Schumacher.

01:00 You've got to remember that they pipped Ipswich or beat Ipswich to the title last season.

01:04 So I know that was then and this is now. And Ipswich have obviously come on in leaps and bounds since then.

01:09 But they're a good side. Druk had draws at Hull and West Brom. They only lost three to Ipswich.

01:14 So they're not whipping boys by any means.

01:16 And obviously, I suppose the thing with them is that's a huge, huge trek for them coming to Plymouth to Leeds.

01:21 I mean, talk about a journey. So, yeah, that might be a factor into it.

01:26 And Leeds will be favourites and probably odds on.

01:28 And they probably should win and sign off for the international break in style.

01:31 But it'll probably be a difficult game. And I just expect them to put up a bit more resistance than we've seen in the last game.

01:35 So it does look a good chance to finish off in three points, which is what we're going to need to keep on closing that gap, hopefully.

01:43 Spot on, mate. Well done.

01:46 There we go, mate.
