Leeds (H) | Post Match Thread

and on top of this, our performances are nowhere near as good as they were until March.
I just hope we’re not running out of steam at the wrong time. Dortmund showed enough quality at our place on Tuesday to knock us out. We were actually quite lucky to get away with the win. Apart from the blip against West Brom, Chelsea have improved under Tuchel. We need the big guns in for every game now. No messing about.
 
A loss we could do without, bit if we fail to take 9 points in the 6 games remaining i'll be very surprised. A reminder of what happens when you drop off a bit might not be a bad idea at this stage for some players, some players might feel they need to up their level and one player in particular(Mendy) should feel very lucky if he ever wears our kit again imo
 
Today just highlights the difference between scoring first and conceding first. Apart from the Leicester game,which was a freak result with the three penalties, we just aren't equipped to coming from behind despite having enough chances in all three of losses to win each game comfortably.
 
Not the result we wanted but on the plus side, at least Dias, Rodri, KDB and Mahrez are all fully rested ahead of the big one on Wednesday. Get past Dortmund and this result will be long forgotten.
 
Last season of the old first division thrashed Leeds 4 0 couple of weeks before the end of the season. Changed nothing Leeds win the title GPC won fuck all. One thing for sure Leeds won't roll over for the rags.
 
27 attempts indicate we need not 1 but 2 strikers in the summer. I would try Torres in the middle as as of yet he’s not gone sailing passed full backs as we expected.
Anybody who watched Dortmund v Seville will have notice early on that Seville went for it and could and should have scored maybe 2 or 3 by halftime.
We need to cut out the laboured build ups and sideways and backward passes and truly go for it from the outset and sure we could put the tie to bed early.
 
Hopefully this game will become insignificant in the bigger scheme of things.

Next week we progress and we will declare Pep a genius.

He has definitely opened the Door ajar in the premier league, only a crack. But they are already seeing a glimmer of hope when before there was virtually none.

Putting the League to Bed early you get to rest the Big players for the really impotant Champions League latter stages.

The Rags win tomorrow it is down to 8 points. We lose another " the Wheels are coming off Brigade "will be out in force.

Point being now we have to actually play our strongest side more often in the League than we would have/

I never understand his logic.
His logic is that we’ve done it multiple times already this season and won, and then won the games that we rested for. It not getting any points once, in a game where we created more than the opposition, will be of little concern to him. Nor should it be to us. As it’s the reason we are in this position in the first place.
