It is a derby.

A derby is a match between two teams from the same city. Leeds is a rivalry

We shaded the first half and scored our only chance, you shaded the second half and missed your only chance. 

 

Not a game that will live long in the memory tbh. 

 

What I would say is your players appear to be buckling under the pressure of expectation and as we approach the business end of the season, that's not a good thing to be happening. We, on the other hand, are over achieving to expectations and the pressure on the players is less. Norwich is a huge game, mentally and points wise for you guys.

I don't think that's the case.  Apart from a handful of games we've not played particularly well all season.  Our main problem has been finding the right starting XI, formation and combinations within the team out of a large and talented squad.  

 

Saturday was a good example of this.  The left hand side of Fox and reach didn't work both had poor games.  The central midfield two of Hutch and Abdi didn't really work neither did the midfield four as a whole.  Even with the changes the right footed Macmanaman plays on the left and the left footed Wallace plays on the right which makes us a bit unbalanced.  In defence, for the goal, we had Loovens playing for offside with the rest of the defence holding the line and then Sasso ducking out of the header.  We have missed Lees at CB and with Hutch moving into CM Sasso has now become our third choice CB rather than 4th.

 

If Carlos can get these things right between now and the end of the season and we can remain in the top six we will be a real force to be reckoned with in the play-offs.
