Leeds Utd V Liverpool Match Thread

[White Riot]

MB has got this wrong again, you cant go so mad man for man against far superior individuals because they pull you around and create space.

At times he frustrates the hell out of me, adapting to the opposition a bit is normal.

Llorente off is a massive blow.

The Rodrigo in midfield experiment should end, the midfield is getting pulled all over and MB should be telling them to take a step back on the man for man.

Struijk shouldn't be following Mane into our half.

We are yet to have 1 good performance, Klich should have started

Liverpool are a quality side as are Scum, but I just feel we make it too easy for them.

Cooper is going to give me a heart attack as well

When are we going to get going this season as it's been poor? I know Liverpool are better, but how many times have we given the ball away easily and we've missed two sitters.

Gonna be a long old season.

Amazingly enough we are still in the game at 0-1

The problem we will have this season especially at home will be the CROWDS because now fans are back and we usually crumble whenever it's an important game or must win game. So this season the crowd will be our achieves heel

Just finished work - gutted I had to miss this one. Have watched first half on mobile in part. Surely we cannot be any worse second half.

Agree on comments about the midfield - it is at times non existent. It doesn’t help that we are giving the ball away needlessly. Transitions are shocking.

Club should have gone big on a midfielder, has to be said.

What happened to our new signing Forshaw?

Yep and the club will have no one to blame but themselves.

Last person we need on is forshaw

We open up like the Red Sea.

[DDB220]

Need Shacks on in my view. Adds energy which we are missing.

Wow how is that 1-0 and not 5-0. If we go MTM we must have no players on the pitch, Liverpool everytime they got the ball had players in acres and just worked their way through our limp team. Are Liverpool that good? or are we just that poor? Dallas doesn't look right to me, would the real Ayling please stand up and Harrison looks like he wants back to Citeh. Just when you think it can't get any worse we lose our best defender. Another injury to his collection...Orta did you do your due diligence?

Firpo bless him his doing his best against Salah but get closer cos everytime he gets the ball something happens. Nothing in midfield again. Phillips has been our best player but he needs help. Rodrigo strolling around like he's on holiday and should have had more composure with his chance, Raph not much better tracking back. It really is a pale imitation of last season first half. Dallas off for Shacks, Harrison off for James and Rodrigo off for Klich.

[White Riot]

Klich should have started

Well done Pascal our 2nd best CB.

With Koch n Llorente always being unavailable I'd rather he went with Cresswell n Struijk.

Class v boys

Absolutely. We are a million miles away . If we can stay in it with 10 to go we have a chance but the gulf in class is alarming.
We've had decent breaks but failed to capitalise again. Ayling trying to knee it in instead of heading .
When are they going to learn that against class opposition defenders jumping in to intercept the ball will either get turned or give the foul away. It smacks of desperation .
Rodrigo strikes it straight at the keeper when slotting it either side was the answer.
Bamford unable to control passes at the first attempt or even at all.
Little things but at this level makes a massive difference.
We can and need to improve before the confidence ebbs away completely otherwise Leeds are in deep trouble. Fingers crossed for plenty of good luck in the 2nd half.

Agree mate.

Its weird because MB has shown he can adapt, he showed it last season.

This season though its almost as if because fans are back he feels duty bound to go toe to toe and its a ludicrous thing to do.

[SG90]

Dallas, Harrison, KP, Bamford, Ayling, Cooper all struggling so far this season. What did I say about overplaying the same players would eventually cost us?
