Leeds wing-backs Bogle and Firpo already have 16 yellows between them. Bogle was already booked for that nasty foul on Le Fee. I'm amazed the Sunderland players didn't try to exploit this.
Well if it makes you feel better Burnley's defense is good enough that it'll almost certainly be picked apart over the summer. Not an insignificant chance of Parker not being there next year either
Just watched the highlights back and stand by what I said last night barring 2 very good crosses into the box Leeds barely laid a glove on us. Yes they had all the play but barring those 2 crosses created **** all. I've seen the winner back now I only saw it once live as the second it went in I screamed **** off at the tv put my coat on and took the dog out. He now thinks his name is **** off. Having seen it again Patterson should have got something on that cross. Not hanging him out to dry but he could do better there. Also the 1st goal Onein got something on it on the line. It may already have been over the line i can't say for certain but once he gets contact he probably should do better. Again not calling him out as it would have been a hell of a clearance but I guess these little things are ultimately the difference between being top and being 4th. Still so pissed off we lost that again not at any of our players just my perceived spawnyness of Leeds.
The roberts foul for the free kick gets more egregious the more i see it, a lot of work to do from the free kick but its a very poor decision.
Yeah it was a poor challenge but it was a knackered winger tracking back and to be fair their set pieces had been dross until that point. Probably thought it was the lesser of 2 evils rather than let the winger escape. Hell of a ball in though to be fair as was his cross for the winner
Watched the replay straight after Roberts's shot and noticed Isidor got in that great position. It was easy to think that Roberts had a chance to play Isidor in but that freeze frame shows how tight the window for the pass was - to thread it through or a little chip. Would have been phenomenal to spot the opening and get the right pass in.
Yeah that's basically what I've said. I've made it pretty clear I'm not digging him out or blaming him for the goal just expressing my frustration at the fact he got a foot on it but didn't quite manage to keep it out. Apologies if it didn't come across that way but that's how I intended it to.
I'm sure he's the one that was wanting RLB out after we lost at Preston in the cup because he had his arms folded or something like that. Idiot.
Imagine wanting a manager who has lost 5 league games, 0 at home, gone because we don’t win every week They should go and support that Saudi sportswash up the road
