    Sorry assumed you were watching the game. He held the ball up, scored via a deflection, helped defend from the front, was a nuisance to them. If you get a chance to see the highlights have a look <ok>

    Happy enough with a point fair play to casilla kept us in it. Needs to rest a few now against arsenal and concentrate on Sheffield Wednesday.

    Kiko made some good stops, and redeemed himself, but they were all in the should have saved category for me. Considering we dominated the play he got worked far harder than Johnstone.

    Harrison was a threat, thought klich played very well second half, bamford showed why we need a striker who can hold the ball up.

    To be fair to nketiah them scoring early allowed them to sit back which isn’t going to suit him.

    Whichever he’s going back... it’s official

    More than a half time bollocking the substitutions made a huge impact

    Don't think anyone are willing to lend Leeds any players in Jan. So if we want players in Jan I think we have to buy them:emoticon-0148-yes:

    I thought he made a real difference linking with Harrison.

    Nketiah can’t hold the ball up, link play or pass, and has a poor first touch. Bamford made us tick immediately, so if we lose Eddie it’s no big deal for me.

    Klich put himself about well today, niggling all the time.

    Pereira is a nasty cheating little f****.

    Kiko can stop the odd shot when the notion takes him.

    Deserved point without be spectacular, take that, as said when Bambi doesn't play we look all at sea. Eddie just not the right type of forward, sure he will score in a team more suited to his attributes.

    Although Douglas gave a few balls away. I don't rate him personally, but what the **** do I know. Good result.We beat the 2nd best team in this League IMO and we were better 2nd half.

    I wouldn't mind a nippy little ****er like him in a Leeds shirt playing off of Bamford though

    As someone else mentioned, I think we expected West Brom to come at us a bit and Eddie would have thrived on the break. That was the plan but then Kiko waves at one in the 2nd minute and all of a sudden West Brom are the ones sitting back and we have posession. That, as we know, is more Bamford than Eddie territory. Bielsa made a good change! Good manager him!

    Feel a bit for Eddie. It's just not happened for him, or us for that matter. Injuries and situations like tonight just didn't go his way.

    By the way, Eddie worked his bollocks off whilst he was on the pitch. He defended well from the front. I'm sure Bristol will be ecstatic that he has learnt under Bielsa (the bastards!)
