Doing ok for me. Obvious plan to deny them possession. Leeds like to boss teams going forward but starve them if the ball and suddenly they start looking at each other and Bellend road go s quite. Took our one chance with our first run into the box. Bang get in. Hold on tight..
Philogene’s shots into a crowd of 3 players are starting to get on my tits. Good player but so frustrating. He reminds me of Doku at Man City who is also talented but whose decision-making leaves a lot to be desired at times.
Jaden unimpressive again can’t pass his man , can’t do the same trick always he needs to push up on his man and try sprinting past if the right ball is given
We look so much better with Tufan and Omur in the team. Philogene looks better on the left but he needs to be looking for the killer pass rather than jockeying for a position to shoot all the time.
We beat Leicester, we ended Southamptons run, first team to overturn a winning position and win at Elland road? come on city!
Its the championship Dont be acting like leeds are man city We can beat these We have to make off ball movements more
We should really be 2-1 down but we grew into that as it went on. There's more impetus about us tonight, probably because bodies are getting forward much more quickly than usual. We're still going backwards probably a little too hastily for my liking but so far, so good - after the start we had you've got to take where we are at HT. Say what you want about Giles, but just his getting forward more, and quickly, has really helped us to phase into attacks more effectively. Morton was having a mare up until he rolled the dice, stood up and made himself a hero. More of that please and we'll have the 'in form Morton' back. Slater having a great game and Seri has so far had a good game. He's been more useful on the defensive side so far. Tufan having a good one too, making runs and giving them something to think about. His header back for Philogene was clever play. Ömur giving them a lot to think about too, lots of effort as well. Carvalho a solid 7/10 for me, but again, gambled and made that little run to score the goal. We don't score enough goals like that. Philogene right now is the weakest link for us by some distance in my opinion. He's losing it too often and too easily and he doesn't look like scoring. He has all the tools to make me eat my words in the second half. Fingers crossed.
