I have a mate who is a Wigan fan, I took the mickey yesterday saying that it looked like a practice match for us. I cannot believe that, considering their home record, it looked so comfortable at times. If we could stop giving goals away at set pieces we would be walking the league. Forest- set piece- 3 pts instead of one. Blackburn- 2 set piece goals- 3 points instead of none. Brentford- Penalty- 3 points instead of one. That would put us 7 points clear at the top. If we could only defend set pieces better it would not matter if we were only scoring one a game and just dominating possession comfortably. Cant complain about much at the moment but thats about the only thing we need to improve on.
Blackman pulled off some great saves and looks to be Leeds best player along with Harrison. Blake and Roberts dont look like they’re interested. Bielsa watching so expect a different 2nd half. Saiz?
Begining to look a lot like the first team, error at the back, dominate the middle final ball crap? Roll on second half. We are top of this league so lets play like we are, thanks
Poor again and now e go 2-0 down allowing a player to drive through from half way to shoot and score, Blackman almost got that
Cant see Saiz getting back into the first team at this rate. Harrison must be in the running as he was our best outfield player by a distance in the first half but subbed off hopefully to save him for Saturdays bench. Blake was shocking so no wonder taken off at half time.
Can't believe our U23s, with Bielsa on the touchline and Harrison, Baker, Saiz, Blackman, Shaughnessy, Clarke and Shackleton involved, went 3-0 down after 57 minutes to a bunch of spirited lads who can't get into the Crewe team. No end product, tippy tappy all game, and I disagree about Harrison, no penetration from him the whole first half. Just looks like none of them care about impressing Marcelo. Saiz? Must be happy on the bench on a Saturday. Only bright lights were Clarke, Gotts and Stevens, again.
After a great result yesterday with a decent pwrformance by all, we saw today a different side. Bielsa was there to see some of his first team charges make a mess in Crewe. Baker and Roberts didnt look interested, Saiz was in and out but was targeted and blew up in temper blackman was superb and Harrison had a very good first half before coming off. Nessy for me shouldnt be at the club and Clarke when he came on rocked again Today wasnt good and corberan needs to sort it because at times our possession looked good but defence was shocking and so too was our finishing. Corberan is trying to emulate first team tactics but todays wasnt good at all. Maybe too many changes, maybe no Aapo Halme in defence? Crewe kids made us look silly
Just realised Pearce wasn't in the squad yesterday and wasn't even on the bench for the U23s today. Injured or being frozen out?
so same as the first team then possesion good hardly any goals seems to be a lack of talent to me.dont rate neesy he has had his chance.
U23s have been brilliant so far hence top of the league, but today they were flat as a lot of the regulars left out for first teamers who let themselves down. Nothing worked, nothing was smooth or organised, it was a botch potch and somebody will get a huge bollocking for that. Corberan? roberts, Saiz, Baker?
