Sheff44 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 As above, best Leeds side I've seen for years, outclassed us, a fortunate point, cheque book needs to come out when possible I'm afraid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birley Owl 1867 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Eh? All it shows is that we're miles away from a top 2 side which I think many of us already knew. Top 6 though is a possibility of we sort out our defending at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andysowls Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 I’ll be happy for top 10 this season, overhaul squad close season & let JL work his magic & pick who HE wants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue is the lack of a midfield general. 4 years and waiting. Pelupessy not good enough Our lack of ball retention when under pressure is shocking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without him Bannan is terrible. What we lack is defenders who can actually pass a ball and someone who can head it. We seem to have found the header in Hector. But still no passing.

All about opinions in a home match we need to be more in command and take the game to the opposition, boss them Let the defenders defend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have Lees who is fine on the ball, and Pudil too. Why in hell was Pudil on the bench again with Thornley playing? Hardly rewarded for his great performance vs Villa. Hector's distribution was terrible unforunately, hopefully nerves because he looked way short of what we need. I don't see Pelupessy's impact enough either. Some games he does it, but total he was a total bystander. Hardly got a foot in, and the amount of times Leeds got between our defence and midfield was scary. Surely that is his job? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fife_owl Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 It’s early days. Leeds are on fire, we ground out a draw. Although they dominated us, we dug in and restricted their on target shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be on top, to dominate and do nothing with the chances created is more of a bad reflection on leeds than it does us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheff44 Posted September 28, 2018 Author Share Posted September 28, 2018 No we just need to spend money, when we can, that's what gets u promotion, it all depends on Chansiri and his wads, if he has got any Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to be grateful for these ground out draws against good teams, rather than critical because we didn't play like Real Madrid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
