Can we please have a flair for data posts*? Thanks, Jimbob.*

We’ve done a great job limiting opponents counter attacks. Obviously this comes down to who you play this early in the season. But facing teams like Brentford, Arsenal, Newcastle, and Crystal Palace who all enjoy counter attacking football, it shows we are well suited to shut that down.

Our average possession for the season is 44.3%, so with less of the ball, it does lead to less counters.

We are 10th in xG conceded (8.80) with only 5 goals let in.

2nd best in interceptions for the league (11.3 per game)

5th best in clearances per game (30.5)

All per Footmob

Edit:

Just for comparison sake, stats from last season:
- our possession after 6 games was 43.5%

- average xG against was 7.4, which was mid table.

- average interceptions was 8.5 per game, mid table.

- clearances per game was 28.

Leeds United chairman Paraag Marathe made headlines last week when he spoke about dynamic pricing for football match tickets.

Speaking at Leaders Week London, a sports business summit held at Stamford Bridge, Marathe said he had been thinking about how the principle would apply to tickets for United’s home matches at Elland Road, with the focus on making prices more affordable for those supporters who attend most frequently.

Some fans reacted with frustration on social media. The club has since said dynamic pricing on tickets is not currently on its agenda.

However, given Marathe has acknowledged it is a topic he has weighed up, Beren Cross what dynamic pricing is, its pros, cons and how supporters feel about it.
