Away to Leicester after those 3 so might be no points until Norwich. And I wouldn't bet my house on 3 points based on that performance. Roberts must be sucking MB's cock every night
When are the Leeds fans going to wake up and realise Bielsa is a liability. How long can the Argentine keep his god-like status for getting us promoted (though he spent a lot moe than anyone else) If Bielsa was that great, why does he make the same mistakes week after week? If Bielsa was that great, surely he'd have made us better at defending set pieces!
He was playing poor as were the other players, I’d say no worse than Harrison or James. Who’s more likely to conjure up something out of nothing though? How much more game time do we have to give Roberts before he either scores or creates a goal? What is the point of not playing Gelhardt in the U23s for him to just sit on the bench. Team selection and substitution decisions have been questionable most of the season. I think the time has come for a fresh approach. Bielsa has too many favourites
No player ratings this week. The stream kept cutting out so I missed chunks of the game. When it did work I saw the same old 5 yard passes going in to touch, Everton players looking physically stronger, crosses in to the stand, poor defending at set pieces etc etc to know what happened. Meslier did OK. Rodrigo has had back to back acceptable performances. Struijk was OK (just) and Forshaw improved things when he came on. Hjelde looked OK for a kid but was sloppy in possession again. Other than that anyone else would be lucky to score above a 4.
Meslier Struijk Helder all 5s the rest between 3&4 Rodrigo hit the woodwork twice, you could argue if they’d went in he’d have scored high but his passing was as poor as the rest Leeds Live scores 3 for both Raphinha and Harrison they’re summaries just about sum it up as I saw it https://www.leeds-live.co.uk/sport/leeds-united/leeds-united-player-ratings-everton-23078053
I'm even luckier i saw none of it. Everton have to many good players to go down. Were they not scared of our legendary fitness and charge of the light brigage tactics?.
To make matters worse, I’ve just read how well Everton’s “make shift” defence dominated our attackers. I didn’t realise the first choice CBs were injured and that they had 5 first team players unavailable
Norwich have been playing okay, Newcastle on the up too, todays loss was immense as I’ve felt we might need to rely on Brentford and or Everton slipping into the bottom three
Interesting re struijk - on another site several posters singled him out as the largest turd in the cess pit today.
Too late for that. Brentford have got games left against all of the bottom 6. We've only got 2, Norwich and Watford. We now need Brentford, Newcastle and Everton to win all their games against the bottom 3 PS: Newcastle and Burnley can draw if they like
