Millwall take on Leeds this weekend.
Millwall star Jed Wallace says the Lions intend to shock Leeds this weekend and plan to copy Sheffield United to do it.
Quoted by the Yorkshire Evening Post, Wallace, 25, says he believes the Blades have provided the blueprint for Millwall to win at Elland Road.
Wallace said: “They had a difficult result last time out against Sheffield United.
“United did exactly the same as what we’ll look to do, sit in and hit them on the counter-attack.
“We want to do the same.”
Apart from the fact giving away Millwall’s tactics in advance to Marcelo Bielsa not being a smart idea, this particular plan could be doomed to fail.
Sheffield United were able to pull off the away win due to two reasons, they have better players than Millwall, and the element of luck.
Leeds dominated possession with 71 per cent against the Blades and had 17 shots.
If Millwall attempt the same tactics to let Leeds come at them, they could end up the wrong end of a three or four goal win if the Whites can score early.
