Match Day Thread Leeds v Hull City

[Trumpton Tiger.]

Doubt if Leeds have been dominated like that at home since they were relegated from the Prem. But goals win games, not possesion and we gifted them three.
The first one at the worst possible time was pathetic. After that City dominated the game and silenced the crowd, which isnt easy at Elland Road.
Our goal was well worked and well finished but how we lacked an out and out striker out there! With Delap up front we'd have won that.
Slater was beaten for pace and played right into Summervilles hands, stone wall penalty all day but why didnt we capitilise on the Leeds players arguing who was going to take it instead of just standing back in silence?
The last goal was a joke.
Never a 3-1 game.
And the most relieved man in Yorkshire tonight is Farke.
One consolaltion, that leeds team will do sod all in the Premier League.

Playing a right back at centre half and our best performing central midfielder of late at right back whilst having both a centre half and a right back in the bench was an inspired decision. People say Rosey is inflexible in his approach and doesn’t mix it up but he did right there.

 

[Kalman]

No maybe about it

Maybe he’s one of the disgruntled players who spoke to Tan. My mate didn’t say names but just said some players had gone over Rosenior’s head to Tan about the current state of things, training methods etc.

 

[Plum]

I reckon Jaden's stock is going downhill every time he plays now. Either his head's gone or he really only has one gear.

i dont have a problem with players disagreeing with coaching methods etc
but philo has no excuse for his recent peformances
he's been ****ing ****
like i wouldnt pay 500k for him

 

[TIGERSCAVE]

No maybe about it

Ever since the Spurs reports appeared in the press, he's not been here...

 

[GLP]

Better performance....same old problems. It just never changes. We aren't ever going up with this set up and or man in charge unfortunately

Why? Squad depth is an issue. You can’t wait to jump on the back of Rosenior.

 

[bradymk2]

there is no way in any realm of dimensions, spurs want to sign philo

 

[Shark Sports]

He went straight down the tunnel as well. Didn’t acknowledge the away fans. Poor from him after a poor performance. Maybe it’s just a young player being impetuous after a disappointing game or maybe he’s already got his sights set elsewhere.

He's just a young player going through a tough spell. He had a poor game and he'll know it

 

[Tony Angelino]

Better than Friday but the issues remain, I thought he was going to be adventurous when I saw the team. Slater at rb and coyle cb, bit of an anti climax.
Rosie obviously doesn’t rate macca
Jaden was poor, maybe we are seeing why Villa didn’t think he was pl.
Fabio doesn’t actually do anything, I’d be putting the Turkish messi centrally and build a team from there
I thought tufan did well

i love rosie
i really do
id love to have a chat with him

its just when you have an owner like acun, you need to make the most of it
we need a new man in


the fact his two signings in connolly and sharp dont get on is testament imo

As far as I'm aware he wasn't one of the ones that did, but the ones that did were speaking ok behalf of the squad

Doing everything he can to not get injured for his summer move. Head hasn’t been in it since Jan.

Greaves on the other hand gets better the closer his move gets. Shows you how their mentalities differ.

 

[Ernie Shackleton]

We played well tonight and the outcome could easily have been very different.

End of the day though, you have to score goals.

And we don't because we haven't got any decent strikers.


It's that simple, really.

 

[bradymk2]

hull city played well, would be on our gravestone.

its always 'ifs' could' should' maybe's with this team

He has been poor and I can’t and won’t blame Rosenior for his performances recently in particular. There’s a lot to be desired regarding Rosenior as a manager but from what I’ve heard and what I can tell, he’s an excellent man-manager and supportive gaffer. Even the best managers can’t prevent some players having attitude problems or thinking they’re too good too soon. Ferguson had his share of disagreements and conflict with players like Beckham and Keane and he just ****ed them off. Player power in the dressing room has increased massively in the last 10 years to the point where absolute arseholes like Pogba undermined and got Mourinho sacked from Man Utd despite Mourinho being the best manager they’ve had since Ferguson. What should’ve happened is Pogba and the other Billy Big Bollocks got sold and Mourinho stayed.

That is because they play the same style of footy.

Which was my point.

greaves is good enough for england imo
if he keeps it up and learns from the very best

 

[Howdentiger2]

Because imo he's taken us as far as he can. He's shown us nothing to suggest he can sort out the same issues we have week in week out....

No one likes a know it all Ernie
