He's came to get his career back on track while playing down a league he's expected to be playing in.
The minimum he can do is get moving and offering himself.

Had the minerals at the end though didn't he ? That's what counts. Not rolling about the floor, farting about
This result has been coming for a while mind, we've been off it for weeks if not months now and we've been scraping draws/narrow wins. The difference between how Leeds played at Stoke on Boxing Day compared to how we did today is night and day. Why are we conceding so much territory and possession to them? Where have the high pressing traps disappeared to? Stoke are terrible and we made them look decent.
We are desperate for a striker. Isidor was ok today but we need so much more. Mayenda can't be relied upon in that area at all and Connolly I would look to offload to be honest.
We lack a creative player massively. Love Rigg but he isn't a creator. Aouchiche was decent today but I just don't think RLB will be relying on him going forward. Isidor, if he is the main forward for the season, is a striker that needs service and he just isn't getting it.
So many poor performances across the board today, some from players you just don't expect it from as well like Cirkin who was so poor. O'Nien and Mepham as well.
So deflated after the last 2 games but today more so. Promotion challengers can't be losing games like that. Huge game against Sheff Utd now which could've been a chance to go above them if we'd done our job today.

Who’s defending that today? I actually thought we played well first half, second half was really poor but for 90 minutes made the wrong decision in the final third
I’m picking you who decides that the 12 game time frame is the comparator when we’ve won 3 of the last 6
and we signed one of them whilst injured
its not an over reaction to todays results, but we were short in midfield as one injury (Browne) meant Rigg, Neil and Bellginham would be up against it and if one of them misses out we have no depth.
We wanted a forward in the summer and signed the lad from belgium, injured, and Connolly on a rehab mission.
The manager is a tool or two short of a full toolkit.
He wouldn't have scored for us today, he offered nothing till that chance at the end. If he played for us we would all be moaning he isnt involved enough.
We had chances today and it just didn't happen, we made changes early and it didn't work, their keeper saved everything, we hit the post twice? Oh and had a guaranteed penalty denied.
Its not the end of the world
Standards are high with our supporters, we all expect to win
Some won't just write off things after a bad result or can look objectively at things so def don't agree with your last sentence
That's still nowhere near good enough. I don't mind him as a footballer, but I want a striker who will get into the right positions and put the scrappy ones away.
We need a goalscoring winger desperately. Not enough contributions to goals from the wing at all.
We need a CF who can actually rotate for Isidor so he’s not ****ed playing 90 mins every game.
A decent LB backup for Cirkin would be nice, stop playing a CB there (Aji)

Weren’t horrendous but we’re starting to regularly miss good chances and concede soft goals, play that game ten times we probably win eight, concerns are valid but luckily a lot of results went our way today too, have to hope for 6 points from our homes games and get some bodies back asap
Think it’s harsh to say we need a forward then very next paragraph say he’s getting no service
Isidor is a goal scorer and a massive threat in the box but we play like we don’t have a striker and want our wingers / midfielders to score worldies
it’s worrying create a chance for your centre forward
They were more aggressive and direct 2nd half, but we made plenty of chances. Aouchiche and Mayenda very wasteful, going 4-4-2 killed us at the end. Lack of options from the bench is costing us
Single mistake at the back by o9 ended it. Hey ho
5 points dropped with Sheffield united to come and burnley, Boro, watford on the horizon
Its not panic season but that spell will ear mark our season
He was ****ing ****e all game
He scored 4 goals in one game and has scored mostly pens. Stop trying to say Cannon would have changed that for us man. We need more contributors from these wingers we have
It’s okay mate whoever disagrees with you is obviously a club shagger.That means nothing, they all count
I know your tongue is firmly up the clubs hoop though, that’s fine
just coming out with moronic statements after a loss same old same old after every poor result
I’d back him to score the mayenda chance, I’m not saying he’s great and we should sign him like but the lad would score goals here, sore one today, we need to get more clinical and cut out the soft goals
First time this season a result has left my stomach all squidgy. A result that rubber stamps my tendancy to be looking over our shoulders and not at those ahead.
