    But for a lack of concentration from a corner Leeds were never in it

    Sarnded to me like we didn`t create that many chances, for any of the strikers. Another game where we have had more possession and lost, too much spreading it side to side to side rather than going for the jugular. Give me less possession and space to run at em anytime.

    How many times has the commentator said headed away by such a Leeds defender or headed away by another Leeds defender. now unless such defenders were playing on their knees then it would appear that service in to the strikers wasn't very good.

    Can never understand why we play armstrong and winn all together against big center halfs

    Ball in has been poor today by the sounds of it and Leeds have limited Free kicks around the box.

    We pump balls upto winnall n armstrong when neither of them can hold the ball up seems like a no go partnership to me.... We played watkins against villa out of position play him up top with who ever...

    Its not the partnership that's a no go, your words, "we pump the ball up to Winall and Armstrong" to me indicates lofted passes to 5ft 9ins strikers, no good against 6ft odd defenders.

    Link up play in final 3rd is poor, service from wings is also average. Huffed & puffed today but nothing at end of it. Disagree with Hecky about more positives than negatives today thought were average at best all over park. Angus was MoM today

    Agreed. When we were top scorers the goals were coming from all over.

    For the last few games we seem a bit cautious and slow to build, and our midfielders aren't going beyond our strikers.
