They are tearing us a new one when they attack. aurier again giving far too much space. Harrison hasn’t got out of second gear! defensively ****e. Again.
Same as racism, all well and good saying stamp it out but really they don’t care or they would sort it within 2-3 days like they did with the ESL threat
Tbh...we are as bad as the VAR offside decision. 9 attempts v 3 (4 if you count the goal) We are poor defensively, do not control midfield so do no create enough. 3 chances in 45 mins against a midtable team when you are fighting for a CL place is poor by anyone's standards.
2-1 HT. Poor. We're losing the midfield, nobody's tracking their fullbacks and the defence is half asleep. More bullshit VAR, but I think we're all used to that by now. Needs to change something at the break, whether it's tactical or getting someone new on.
Leicester have well and truly left the door open, and have United, Chelsea and us to play. Chelsea have city today, followed by Arsenal Leicester and Villa. Anyone surprised we’re losing? It’s so predictable.
Defensively a sham as per usual, we’ve not done enough to get the ball to our forwards either. When we have, we’ve done well. But Son (despite his goal) and Bale have barely touched the ball whilst Kane isn’t receiving it enough either, though I do partly wonder if that’s now because Dele is occupying similar spaces Kane has been taking up this season. Ndombele may be able to help with this, but whilst our defence is at it is, we’re always in danger of losing this 2-1/3-2/4-3.
Leeds are getting at our fullbacks so well, and it’s not helping that neither of them are exactly having a stormer. They’re so isolated though. And the CBs are a mess so it’s a threat every time. Feels like we would benefit from trying to slow the game down a bit and keep a bit more structure but it depends if we can deal with the press. We’ve got through it a few times the first half so maybe it’s viable. Feel like changes will be tactical rather than players at half time. Good game though and a real test for Mason in the next 45 mins.
I'm sorry to say., Lo Celso has been a real disappointment to me since his arrival at this club. Needs to step-up now, for sure.
Leeds have won all their games they have led at home We going to have to sort our **** out or were done after today
Think the only time we have been losing at ht and then won was v Southampton 2 weeks ago. Similar first half performance then to today to be fair. Aurier and Dier are simply not good enough. Hoejberg, Son and Reguilón look burnt out, kane still don't look match fit while Bale and Dele still look rusty. I left Lo Celso off cos I forgot he was playing tbh
