Afternoon all. Cardiff were gash but our passing was so utterly **** that we dropped ourselves in it constantly in the first half. Llorente and Struijk were all over the place and Rasmus is miles behind Bill. Drameh was far better when he came on. Gelhardt was anonymous, I'd pick Joseph or Perkins in front of him. Aaronsson needs a spell on the bench because apart from falling over, misplacing passes and hitting row Z he has nothing. I do blame Jesse because he disrespected the Cup. He picked a makeshift team and we nearly got punished for it. I actually think we looked much better when the kids came on so I'm hopeful for the future. I bet Emu still thinks Firpo is ****
In the event that The Association decides not to allow the match to be played at that ground then the first alternative ground shall be the nearest ground considered suitable by the local enforcing authority and/or Police (taking into account all relevant circumstances) subject to the agreement of the Professional Game Board. I seem to remember Telford switching to West Brom some years ago
Firpo looked a bit rusty to start with but finished the game really strongly. Twice in the box centrally near the end, first was great finish with his right foot until the Cardiff player saved it on the line, second time a lovely flick for Perkins to grab the stoppage time equaliser. Not bad for a first start in months and showed good fitness and energy throughout.
Why not? A 93rd minute goal against 10 men to save the game for you - that says it all........... Bearing in mind we played our reserve side today, for a Premier league side you were **** no matter who the Yank decided to play.
1st half we were useless and lazy We should have played Cardiff off the park but no Jesse thought he was being cleaver and now we have another game to fit in
He was very poor first half, did well in the second. Agree ‘Penalty’ was a good finish with his wrong foot… and good flick for the equaliser
Firpo had his best game in a Leeds shirt and still all the danger came down his (and Struijks) side. First 20 minutes were good. They scored after Struijk decided to have a day off again. Confidence went and players went in to hiding until Wober, Rodrigo and Dramah came on and stoked up a long awaited response. After that it was decent from Leeds. The issue is still at the back where an opposing team only has to have a good 5 minutes in order to score past us. Struijk and Llorente looked completely lost playing alongside each other. That happens with Cooper and Koch too. Sell every single centre half we have and start again. Lots of comments on Wober playing midfield but he was better than Gyabi who went in to hiding after going a goal down. The ****ing defending though.....
