    The problem there was that we had a mental bastard. What we need is no manager, and no mental bastard.

    The biggest difference between the teams, that half, is that Leeds pressed better than us, then moved the ball more quickly.
    It doesn’t help that when we do have the ball, they sit back in two solid lines of four, giving us the usual problem of creating chances.
    We need to get Tall Paul to wear a flashing beacon on his head as we can’t find him with crosses l

    Never a pen. Looks like the 2nd half is going the same way as the 1st

    Nah, threw himself down. Was looking for it. And the co-commentator needs to recognise the fairly obvious differences between ABK and Bednarek.

    Seriously. ABK is the one with the wrap on his hands.

    Public service announcement to our players when making a cross: Onuachu is tall. He is not 9' tall.

    I completely get the sentiment and sometimes you’re absolutely right but Onuacho does himself no favours when he doesn’t even ****ing jump for it.

    In fact it’s getting frustrating for a player of his height and stature be thrown around as much as he does and how little he wins headers

    Leeds may be tiring a bit. Might be a good time to introduce another runner in attack.

    Yeah Leeds are most vulnerable on the counter so I’d take Onuachu off for some more legs. Ely as well for someone who has anything resembling pace
