    It wasn’t just the odd long ball last night. It was our go-to for most of the first half and it didn’t work. If Delap did hold it up, there weren’t many options around him. I also lost count the amount of times Coyle and Christie turned inside to play an easy pass to the centre-halves. We need more bodies in midfield to play the way Rosenior wants us to play and a flat 4-4-2 doesn’t offer that. 4-4-2 is still a useful formation even today but not for patient, possession football.

    I dunno. We've played it or a variant of it all season and we're doing alright. It's not exactly rigid. Delap, Twine and Philogene are always swapping about.

    That said, I'm sure most of us would start Morton next game and that might end up with us looking more like a midfield 3 again.

    The ref also allowed Leeds to play on and win a corner whilst Coyle was on the floor with what could've been a serious head injury

    Worth noting that the attendance for this fixture back in October 2018 was 13,798. The attendance last night was 24,221 sell out. Impressive work from Acun and the team.

    I agree. The 442 or 424 that we've been playing recently only really allows us to attack down the wings.. its a bit one dimensional. I think we look much better when we play 433 or 4231. Maybe some teams can play with a 2 man midfield but Seri & Slater arent the two to do it with.

    Seriously, I don't think he is either.
    I've said it before, he reminds me a lot of Coyle (and vice versa obvs).
    Both somehow 'limited', but end up being very good, honest (as in hard working, give their all, etc), footballers.

    Ouch. That looks awful!
    Might get a BOGOF with Brucie maybe?
    Wonder if he'll now be out a few week whilst it's fixed or if he'll wait till the end of the season?
    Might be Christie's way back in, which, as good as Coyle has been, might not be a bad thing

    I just happen to know of some of the community/charity work he’s done and nobody has a bad word to say about him. Regularly doing stuff for disabled kids and visiting children’s hospitals etc.

    Yeah. Have to admit Ayling (plus one) did a job on Philo.

    No way we should have thrown the ball back to them after they kicked it out
    Pathetic

    Thing is, wasn't it a collision with Greaves that caused that?

    Christie had to give away a corner when 2 Leeds players were miles off... we might get a none t**t of a referee at some point...

    Rosenior stated that the reason he picked Allsop was because Leeds are known to defend high, and he has ability to pick a pass over the top. It actually nearly came off in the first few minutes. Hence the ‘hybrid playing out from the back and long ball’. Actually, I’d much rather see some variety to keep the opposition guessing.

    He was down for ages and we didn’t prep a sub.Took far too long to get replacement on.Poor all around.
    If play was stopped would have been restarted with a drop ball which no doubt we would have just played downfield.

    White ****e at the desk next to me showed me a picture his mate sent him of a pair of city fans with turkish flags draped around them. Wasn't impressed when I shrugged and said we do it all the time with our owners being turkish
