Got to say that post of Eires was the first time in two years his output has been close to what's actually going on. It was almost a prophecy of what was shown today....
Phil Hay @PhilHayYEP 1h1 hour ago Monk on making Elland Road a fortress: "Well that went out the window straight away." #lufclive
Phil Hay @PhilHayYEP 1h1 hour ago Monk: "The players need to realise how serious this is. You've got to be willing to die and kill in every single game." #lufclive
Phil Hay @PhilHayYEP 1h1 hour ago Monk said there was a serious lack of heart and desire to grind out a result second half. Said he told the players straight at full-time.
Been saying that for weeks now.... people seem to forget that Phillips is nearly 21. If he isn't good enough now he won't be good enough in 3 or 4 years. By this age Smith and Woodgate had 3 to 4 years in the first team. Phillips is still on the edge
Wood, Ayling, Bartley, Sacko, Hernandez, Antonnson, Roofe (Grimes unused sub)... They all featured today, they are all Monk signings... I'm not knocking them, just reflecting on Monks words and wondering who is to blame...
The problem is that we've got nobody to replace Taylor at this moment unless you want to stick Berardi at LB again.
Honest answer. Bamba and Green were woeful. Bamba is constantly all over the place. Greens confidence is shot, not sure he will ever get it back.
