Wouldn't you be scared of facing Leeds?

All 4 currently in the play off spots look to be trying their best to cock up their chances. Whether it's your lot missing out on automatics, Soton and WBA having not won their last 3 or Norwich struggling to pick up a win. None will be going into the playoffs on a high. I don't think there's anyone to be scared of in that lot.
 
You have a point. I think it's a split between teams being ultra defensive against us, and also us allowing them to get back and appear ultra defensive. We've already seen big improvements recently with the attack, speeding things up and playing more incisive passes through and forwards - and we've been scoring more and creating more as a result.

I think a lot of this issue solves itself if we keep playing the way we're playing currently and can pull it into the new season despite the inevitable squad churn.

I think we’ve seen some really good improvements in the attacking play, but it’s come at the cost of conceding a lot (7 in the last five). It’s been a bit of a sprint finish in my mind, ending the marathon of the season. I think we’ve needed everything that came before the way we’re playing now (league position, confidence controlling games etc.) to put us in a position to feel like we can do this. It’s felt like a cup run game-by-game mentally, in the same way teams down at the bottom manage to find something within themselves to string results together at the end of the season – a reactionary way to play, not a proactive one. I’m not sure you can play like that all season, everyone would be knackered – physically and mentally – by Christmas.

I’m watching City on the TV, WBA losing/we're still drawing - understandably I'm fraught with tension and nerves, when unexpectedly there’s a playful knock at the front door. Upon answering, my buxom scantily clad neighbour sashays past me explaining that she needs a new firestick and...

You become **** scared of playing Leeds in the playoffs?
 
We are playing really good football at the moment and for the good of football us beating West Brom for 6th is the best thing all round.
West Brom would get hammered by Leeds and the games will be dull and one sided.
Our games against Leeds on the other hand will be exciting and lots of attacking football.
Come on football Gods do the right thing.
 
hows that overturned?
Hes clearly out the box ha

Top save though
Reactions are good
Outside the box sure but was it a clear and obvious scoring opportunity? Ball was heading out of play I reckon and there were 3 Doncaster defenders back.
 
Stop ****ting your pants. Put your feet up and enjoy the final FOUR games of the season.

Due to an absence of yarrow stalks, I took to an online oracle to skip a few weeks into the future and save on the old nerves.
