Blackburn Rovers v Leeds Utd Match Thread

[Tyzy]

Bamford's on ,brilliant!

[The Subhuman]

Paddy's first contribution is to give away a foul in our half

I think its more to do with we have played teams who set up like this numerous times over the course of a season and continue to play into their hands.

Wasn't it Blackburn who started off the dismal run in last year where teams copied the "crowd out and frustrate leaving no room behind" tactic that saw us not promoted last year?

Big fan of farke but there's something to keeping teams guessing as to how we'll set up/play. At the moment we are far too predictable for me. If teams play football against us the quality of player we have shows (swansea) if teams set up to make us break them down we struggle.... This is not a new thing and hasn't been resolved.

Fair play to Blackburn well set up and drilled defensively with the ability to cause problems on the break and scruffyness with physicality to disrupt our play but these are the games a point gets us over the line late on.... Either batter decent sides or lose against middling teams who sit back.

Don't think its OTT to expect this issue to be addressed in a two year period with the financial weight we have over all other sides in the championship.

Probably good points. But too much to read in a match thread. FYI

Was that a card on Ramazani? Don’t think that warranted a card.

No way was that a yellow card offense.

Messed up today I thought it was a 3pm kick off

Lucky man

[andrewjohnsmith]

TF

[Orange Box]

Cantwell runs through everyone, then fluffs his shot. Lucky again.

[DDB220]

Firpo being rather casual was nearly a disaster

[The Subhuman]

Bogle has had a mare

[Irish Ian]

looks like it will be a 0-2 today.

Not knocking him but we defo need an Aaronson alternative in January

[andrewjohnsmith]

No he's fine, he didn't want to come off

Tanaka misses Rama's run there

Good players on. Surprised by players off

Even surprised he didnt keep Piroe on

[JoeDenver]

Lucky to not be down 2-0 there with Cantwell having a clean look.

[Carrick Dave]

Cantwell waltzes through two powderpuff tackles and should have scored.

[Orange Box]

And again. BB so unlucky.

[CUSSIE01]

How the hell did that stay out

[The Subhuman]

Should be 2-0, actually should be 3-0 tbh

[Tyzy]

Not looking too good at the moment

[andrewjohnsmith]

Two missed by Cantwell. We're lucky

Who said two more goals in this?

[John in Louisiana]

Phew

[BlackHillsPaul]

Lucky there. Should have been 2 goals conceded.
