    It had to happen one day.

    mind you I didn’t agree with the rest of your comments, Bamford’s movement isn’t bad he just can’t score. So don’t worry too much I still think you’re talking mainly ****e.:)

    I think a team to watch is Blackburn, they are under the radar and playing good football.

    Klich didn't pass to Ayling for his goal. It was a shot that was going well wide. As he about to shoot with his right he accidentally knocked the ball with his left.

    Don't get me wrong though, Klich is imo having a great season and is absolutely vital in this system. It's just that his shooting along with every other Leeds player is abysmal. On this occasion it helped though that the shot was so poor it became an assist :biggrin:

    it was schoolboy error from klich scoring all those goals at the astart of last season and getting a song about them. Hasn't been able to hit a barn door with a banjo since

    I think we'd agreed Bamford isn't ideal. Its only your reasons for that conclusion that are wrong, not the conclusion itself.

    The problem the club has is getting a striker who can lead the line well, on his own, play well positionally *and* be a goal hungry animal with razor sharp reactions and an unerring aim...… tends to be a bit expensive. If we had one we'd have won the league by now with all the possession we have.

    Looks good on paper but we do have the capacity to conjure up a defeat no matter how ****e the opposition appear.

    Our club is a joke when it comes to buying tickets online, 3 times this morning I got to the part where you confirm order, when the page closed, only to be put back into the queue, sold out before i could do it a fourth time, complete amateurs

    Third time this season I've had this sort of problem.

    Well you do read a lot strange thing on these sides. Someone has made an "observation" and put's it out there and suddenly it become the truth. And in this case it is Augustin not being fit and that he is not willing to put the work in. Bielsa and the staff at Leeds has never said Augustin is not fit, so let's put that to bed ones and for all:emoticon-0148-yes: What they have said it that he needs time. That means he needs to get to know the team and how they play. And it is also interesting that a lot of Leeds fans have written him off already and he has not played half a game yet. And at the same time a lot of fans think Poveda is great and he has not played a single minutt for the first team yet. I must say I do find this strange.

    Now that Pablo has dropped off I think the most consistant players this season have been Bamford. Phillips, and White.

    My son said the same regarding queuing up and then the page being refreshed and being put back into the queue. We got 6 tickets, but we've a system that we all go on and who ever has the shortest waiting time gets the tickets.<ok>

    If he isn't as fit as he needs to be for the way we play and he wasn't prepared to put the work in Bielsa would have him nowhere near the first team squad end of so presume Brown is talking crap.

    Not convinced that we have the easiest run-in.

    On paper, no doubt about it. However, we play best when the opposition want to win too, & come at us. If they decide to stifle us & rely on a draw or breakaway, we really do struggle to break them down.

    Btw, this is completely down to observation, & mostly intuition. I have no stats to support it ('cos I'm too fukin lazy to get them! :D).

    Thoughts?

    It’s vital that we get the first goal in those games where teams park the bus, so yes while we have some struggling teams left to play, if they somehow manage to go ahead we’re pretty much ****ed and our play becomes a bit rushed and panicky (Millwall being an exception but having said that they did come at us initially)

    So really the first goal is more important than the quality of opposition.

    Agree. I don’t buy into these easy games on paper. If Wigan can beat us at elland road, anyone can. I’m sure Fulham fans thought they had an easy one on paper too at weekend

    If I had the choice of playing teams from the top or teams from the bottom every week, I'm picking the ones from the bottom EVERY time.

    We have the easiest run in. In fact, if Carlsberg did run ins.....
