possibly, but I think it sounds more like a response to a specific question

about changing the team. Farke obviously recognises Leitner's quality and would like to have in the team asap, but will probably give McLean the benefit of the doubt.
Tbf he's not badly suited to this game, although his passing was a bit poor in the last third last week.

However, as I doubt Swansea will be pressing us high I think it's probably a better game for Leitner or Vrancic. My view is he'll start with Mclean and change it relatively early if its not working

        I would have subbed emi off in the second half (NCFC) - Chris Peacock, Mar 7, 18:50:03
        
        That could be an option - Mclean for Stiepi and Vrancic-Leitner for McLean (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Mar 7, 17:33:20

        Vrancic is the one who should feel hard done by, if anyone (NCFC) - duke of york, Mar 7, 14:50:34
        
        agree. if you make changes after 3 wins what would he do after a loss? (NCFC) - pab, Mar 7, 15:34:23
        
        so if Barcelona won a game while Messi was out injured (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Mar 7, 15:46:32

        possibly, but I think it sounds more like a response to a specific question (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Mar 7, 14:59:14
  - I thought it sounded like no changes. Double bluff. (n/m) (NCFC) - Dunney, Mar 7, 13:45:55
