    Bielsa really needs to sort this striker situation out now, it's coming back to haunt him.

    Granted Klich missed a penalty, but Harrison and especially Bamford missed sitters.

    Fair result - ref was shocking though - gave Leeds a penalty that wasn't (Bamford is a cheating coont)
    Derby should of had 2 pens where Cooper had his arms all over them at corners.

    If he persists with Bamford after the last couple of games we will not go up this season.

    It's no longer a knee jerk reaction as this has been going on for a while now! Nketiah has to start. Even if it doesn't work, at least we tried to solve the most obvious problem this team has!

    How many penalties have we missed recently? Do we have a 50% success rate?

    Swansea and Derby, it’s cruel

    We can’t afford to miss so many sitters but what do you do when Bamford plays so well in all other areas? Bielsa needs to change this about, I still think Alioski and Harrison are not a good combination on the left.

    Eddy would get us goals but would we suffer in other areas, Bamford held the ball up well today, his play was intelligent. Do we just continue as we are knowing eventually the chances will be put away?

    Bamford earned the penalty, Klich didn’t even force a save, I’m frustrated as hell with Bamfords lack of finishing but I understand the dilemma for Bielsa when the rest of his play is pretty damn good

    Didn't lose, still top but well, we shoulda, coulda, musta but didn't. Klich will be feeling sick but shouldn't he played well, they all did, but the last 15 minutes didn't go well.

    Well that's 5 points we've thrown away at home (7 when you think we should've stuffed Swansea).

    I'm sure we're ****ing cursed

    I see Swansea and Charlton drawing, or Charlton winning.

    Don't know what game you were watching but Bamford had a bad game, again.

    Strikers need to take their chances and score, Bamford missed sitters, including one a yard out that hit post.

    Bamford is a nearly striker, always will be, same with Harrison.

    We play well everywhere else, nearly everywhere else, but the problem is our strikers, they ain't scoring.

    Bielsa's stubborn flaw, playing same team every game................Mr Bielsa, definition of insanity is trying the same thing over and over again expecting different results.

    It's the system that makes us the best team in this division. Unfortunately when we stop playing to feet, high energy passing and moving then we just become an average team.

    Changes today most certainly did not help at all. Costa couldn't work out where to be on the left and suddenly Derby could play out from the back. All Harrison's defence work should definitely not be underestimated.

    Anyway onwards and upwards to the PL as we will get there with Marcelo.

    LL I'm afraid I'll have to strongly disagree.

    Notice how we were worse after Harrison and Bamford went off.

    It's the teams shape and ability to dominate that goes out of the window.

    I thought it was safe to do my sainsbury shop but having just checked the score I'm getting some dodgy looks as I stand here cursing and swearing under my breath. How the **** did we let them rob a point off of us. We can't keep doing this. So ****ing pissed off. Same old, same old. Dominate teams and not burying them. **** SAKE!!!
