Leeds (H) | Post Match Thread

More important games to come but what a stupid one to lose. I just hope this isn’t the season starting to unravel. Some really ineffectual players out there today. Sterling seems shot. Torres goal aside did little. Bernardo not at the races. And so on. All in all we really did have enough on the pitch to have won that let alone draw. And against ten men too. Poor day at the office. Move on. Get through both of the next two ties please City , want a semi and a final set up by next Sunday And this aberration can be forgotten about.
 
I thought the following had a very good game but weren't lucky at the right times...
- Stones
- Fernandinho
- Zinchenko
- Torres
- Jesus
- Bernardo

The following weren't bad...just not very good
- Mendy
- Cancelo
- Ake

Ederson stands out as poor on both goals imo.

And Sterling stands out as being the worst player on the pitch. Had we replaced him with KDB while behind we'd have not lost. The sooner he's replaced the better imo.
 
In what world did Pep think moving Fern to CB was a good idea against a pacy counter attack. Lots of mistakes today. The gamble did not pay off. Is a league collapse completely out of the question?

Our squad is the reason why we are still competing for four trophies!!

You don’t have to have a degree in football to realise that you take the best players out and replace them with squad players there will be a drop in performance............that’s why the are squad players.

It was the correct team to play, if we play our best XI every game we won’t win anything as we’ll be on our arse come the crucial stage of the season.

I cannot believe anyone is blaming Pep.

How can you say "It was the correct team to play" after being turned over by a new promoted side that had 10 men for more than 50 minutes of the football match?
It clearly wasn't the correct team to play you can only get away with making 7 changes for so long with a lot of games we done just about.
You honestly think the players that stepped in today ahead of our regular starters are good enough to take their place, Certainly not. Their is a big drop in standard.
Pep fucked up today and took Leeds for an easy ride which is funny after all the smoke he blew up Bielsa ass yesterday.
 
Fucking hell how on earth did that happen? I don't mind Pep resting players with the Dortmund second leg coming up, but the players he picked should still have it in them to perform.

Sterling was abysmal he is kidding himself wanting De Bruyne money, Jesus was poor and offered nothing, Ake looked rusty, Mendy was his usual useless self (he has to go, he's not at our level), Torres needs time to develop besides his goal he was anonymous, Cancelo was poor he is a liability defensively at the moment and his delivery was poor.

Ederson should've stayed at home for their winner, there was no need for him to come out just watching the post game show now. He stays home and Stones deals with it.

Onto Dortmund now, suddenly not so confident for that after watching that.
 
We progress against dortmund and beat Chelsea in the fa cup next week all is forgotten. The villa game on the following Wednesday will most likely see a similar starting 11 to this one. We have to win that game but we will need to rotate kdb, gundogan, Dias etc for the 3 cup competitions . Gonna be a nervy end to the season
