WBridgfordowl Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Pigs will mess up the play offs and fade away next season. They’ve over achieved this year and we’ll have a good chance subject to ffp issues. losing usually buggers my weekend but feeling positive tonight 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kendoddsdadsdogsdead Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 What a truly fu**ing awful performance. I expected us to be under the cosh but we really were made to look very, very ordinary. Get that MOTM and ratings thread started m,'lud, my fingers are itching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitechapel Owl Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 They probably just about shaded the second half and deserved to nick the win in the end. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't do us selves justice today, 3 or 4 well below par and lucky to get away with only 1. BUT one in the eye for the oinkers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyowl Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 For me the problem today was, Fletcher was poor at bringing in others into play. He'd win the ball but then it would be a poor touch, keeping it too long at Leeds got three players around him. We tried playing on the counter but no pace. Boyd didn't do anything, Bannan and Hutch outnumbered in midfield. I'd go 4-3-3 against Norwich with Matias and Foriesteri either side of Hooper. Put Pelupessy in alongside Hutchinson and tell Bannan to play where he wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s only Hutchinson that I would keep. If offers came in the summer for Bannan and Reach I would sell. Its amazing how fickle our fans are. They are two of our best players. This place can embarass itself after a defeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironman Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Vvank today, despite the result helping shaft the pigs, I flipping hate losing and hate playing badly and losing even more. Not a fair reflection of us under Bruce in my opinion, need our pacy players back ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birley Owl 1867 Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Looking very forward to next season now. Think Bruce can muster up a top 2 performing side. We sorta held our own for the first 45, their superior quality came to the fore in the 2nd though. UTO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deano Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 The way Leeds play is quite unique, you could tell we just didn't have an answer. It doesn't mean they have better players but they have this system which makes it incredibly difficult to get a foot hold in the game. Hopefully a pre-season under Bruce and a few new additions can make us equally as impressive for the new season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Tom Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Can't stress enough how impressed I was with our refusal to roll over there. QPR put four past Swansea ffs, and Swansea weren't under anything like that onslaught. Fair play Leeds, but anyone who thinks we came out of that looking bad is crazy. We need some muscle in midfield besides Hutch (immense today, again) and we need some pace up top, and we're a ridiculously tough side to beat. Palmer, Westy, Hec and Lees, take a bow lads. Absolutely massive. Bring on next season. Dear god I hope we get Hec again, would actually give my eye teeth at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Owl Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 We didn't have an outlet. Defended well but not enough link between back 4 and front 2. No real pace. Full backs not really overlapping, several times Mattias left on his own. They pressed hard. We defended well but we didn't have the outlet. At least there's one big consolation.....

Tank_owl Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 (edited) No one can claim the result is a surprise. As much as I like Hooper he's still not fit. He would have scored that chance in the first half otherwise. Not sure want some people are on about re Fox today, he's done alright. We just couldn't make a decent forward pass when he broke out which ultimately meant we could not make any better chances. Add to that no Iorfa or Aaron's to give us any pace.

Rhubarb n Custard Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 For all their possession l**ds created very few clear chances. No complaints on the balance of play, we were not offensive enough on the day. Think Reach going off killed our chance of winning it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyowl Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 I think if you add in Iorfa, Lazzar and Aarons to the side, we would have had the tools to possibly to carry more of a threat today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
