The way we've played this season we should be around 9th.

Toothless going forward. Too slow and predictable. Have Leeds kept a clean sheet this season?

That was another painful watch!! Carra can argue the crowd are not giving enough, but they're fed up of watching this slow none effective dross every week. Honestly I've had enough myself now! We was making progress slowly but Slot has gone back to the tactics that wasn't working earlier in the season.

I love Szoboszlai, but I honestly think he slows the play down way too much.. Jones/Wirtz/Macca play quick football and it was the reason we were getting results.


At least Rio looked a threat when he came on.


If Alonso was available id sack Slot tonight.

The match paying fans have seen enough. They were leaving 10 mins before the end and who can blame them when we’re playing 100000s sideways and backward passes against relegation fodder.

Have to say disappointed with that tbh,  possession means nothing when it only yields 1 decent chance over 90 and the opposition still manage to cover more ground. We are just so easy to play against and its just dire watching. I dont see anything different from week to week either.

I love Szobozlai but man he cant tackle for tuppence, I dont even think the lad wears shin pads which is a joke. Jones cant tackle either and just goes down with any sort of touch or throws the hands in the air moaning at the ref. A bunch of pussies we have. Sacking the set piece coach really worked as well didn't it as now close to 100 corners with 1 bloody goal to show for it. The dogs on the street have us sussed because all it is is try to find Virgil while rest just block or push lads out of the way to try and get him space. The refereeing is just dirt nowadays and it doesn't matter who's in charge.

Anyway the real problem tonight was the lack of pace again and the inability to create anything. Again thats because we are just so obvious to set up against. Its a point at the end of the day but another poor showing against a promoted side with a game plan.

+1
Awful game. We have become boring to watch with ineffective tactics that don't lead to goals.
What happened to the days when we ripped teams apart?

At least Frimpong is starting to look half decent which is something i suppose. I think Wirtz is wasted out wide, now he's bulked up a bit and is more used to the league it may be worth moving him back to AM, he's nowhere near as lightweight as he was.

Strange looking bugger Frimpong, truth be told.

A blatant penalty and red card was missed because Ekitike tried to stay on his feet, that would have changed the game completely. There were other poor decisions throughout the match. This year we seem to be getting bad bounces from the refs and it hasn’t evened out yet.

If Wirtz had of scored you wouldnt be saying that kazza. The refereeing is poor but they arent against us at all. If he goes down he gets the penalty which was always the wrong thing to be coaching. Konate is into the back with clear pushes everytime,  Kerkhez clatters into lads or goes through players constantly, Watch Mc Allister, Jones, etc on set pieces. No intention on playing the ball but we get away with it.

Its sad to try and justify a rubbish result on a scabby penalty when we where pathetic for most of it. But it would have opened up the game!!    It wouldnt!!
