    Last week we switched off on the 75th min. And today we did the same. Both occasions we gave silly goals to teams that didn't earn it.

    It just doesn't seem to be the most important thing Bielsa looks for In a CB. We didn't concede today because we don't have taller CB, Strachan could have cleared the initial cross but it went through a crowd. I know they won more balls in the box but none really troubled us.
    There must be a method in his madness because we should have walked it today but, again, couldn't convert all the chances we created.
    As most said before the season started a goalscorer is what we need.

    If I remember correctly, there's a few Grealish haters on here.

    Just read a little factoid that might bring a smile to your face - he's just lost his 19th PL game in a row! :D

    Pots and kettles, Mighty. We need a f**king goal scorer more than a CB. Admittedly we did score more goals than West Brom. Pity 50% of them went in the wrong net.

    There were rumors of Leeds signing Andrews a few seasons ago. I seem to recall it being 4 or 5 years ago, not sure of the timing but sure it was being bandied about. Perhaps he is bitter it never materialized

    Have we not learned our lessons from our previous three home games ?

    Coasting against Wigan then they went down to ten men.....

    Making Villa look daft then we give them a goal so Villa & the football league wouldn't sulk, passionate Pontus was having none of it & now he's gone

    We're 2-0 up on aggregate v Derby & contrived to chuck the game away in 20 minutes of madness

    Yesterday all last seasons frustrations came flooding back with us in total control, still missing chances & gifting yet another soft goal

    So we haven't won one of our last four home games, all four have a similar theme.

    Straight red my bollox. He hardly touched the **** and the lad went rolling around. I agree Forshaw should have dived sooner. :)

    I’d imagine on Tuesday we’ll see Berardi, Shackleton, Costa, Alioski, Clarke and the Arsenal lad all start, that’s a pretty strong line up. I really hope Costa and Nketiah shine.

    Just reading Nketiah wasn’t named on the team sheet as you can only name 5 loan players. Surely dropping the loan keeper would have made more sense? White, Costa and Harrison are always going to be named, that leaves 2 from 3 Clarke, Nketiah and Meslier

    Getting a young keeper in on loan now makes no sense in the slightest

    That's the Bielsa way.:grin: I'd have thought regarding the arsenal lad that Bielsa would like to get him up to speed in the way we play.<ok>

    morning all. I'm beginning to wonder if anyone has checked that the Costa at Elland Rd is the same Costa that someone paid a lot of money for?

    Last week Casilla caused havoc and nearly heart failure in his box, this week he never came for a corner, sorry don’t get it, or it’s maybe that cock Robinson coaching him.
