Foul throw Sacko in a good position ...he has done better today though, maybe a player in there

A much improved second half performance gets us a deserved draw.

Seventy minutes of sh*te, twenty minutes of excellence.

Although to be fair, we were much better all second half than we were in the first. Things may be looking up now that we have everyone coming back off suspension.

Great work from Heck to get that performance out of the team

Anita and Sacko surprised me, O'Kane didn't should be his last game for us this season and Roofe needs to play up front if he plays, maybe a weapon off the bench once we get everyone back..Can't play 442 with Saiz and Hernandez on the pitch

Pity we only played one half...still think Bristol blew this.

Tricky scoring today

Weidwald - 3 - Horror show but one save gets him a bonus point
Anita - 7 - Dangerous going forward, good enough in defence
Jansson - 7 - Good game with the odd error
Pennington 3/7 - much more assured second half, liability in the first - hence the 2 scores
De Bock - 6 - Did ok
O'Kane - 2 - Think he was supposed to protect the back 4, he actually made their job harder
Forshaw - 8 - Was everywhere
Hernandez - 8 - Once we got some control he began to run the game
Dallas - 6 - Quiet but solid
Lassoga - 7 - Poor till the last 20, scores and hits the bar or it's a 4.
Ekuban - 5 - Lacks good instincts right now, still raw, needs too long on the ball

Roofe - 7 - Much better playing off a forward, always in dangerous positions and very good football IQ, poachers goal again today
Sacko - 7 - Was it me or did he play well, still raw but was an outlet for Hernandez and others and some good first touches on difficult cross field balls. For the first time I'm seeing a player there.
Phillips - 6 - Made a nuisance of himself, needs to practice his diving but gave us a better shape than when O'Kane was on

What he said.

Can't argue with any of that.

Were dreadful for most of the game. Better after we scored but not overly impressed.

Wiedwald-4 . . Looked nervous and at fault for the first.
Anita-6 . Ok, got forward well second half but was part of a very poor defensive 1st.
Penny-5 . .Not good enough was far to easily bullied.
Jansson-6.. lost to many 50/50s today, better 2nd half.
De Bock-6. . Poor 1st better 2nd got forward well.
O'Kane-3 . .Did nothing, unsurprisingly he didn't protect the back 4.
Forshaw-8 good again today imo, was all over the pitch.
Dallas-5. . Tried hard but no real impact. Story of his leeds career.
Hernandez-8. . Grew into the game and was crucial with 2 assists.
Ekuban-6 . Did some decent things, clearly not fully fit though.
Lassie-8 . .Worked hard, good goal and very unlucky not to win it.

Sacko-6 . Did alright was always willing, more threatening then Dallas.
Roofe-7 . .took his goal well without doing much else.
Phillips-4 . Dived and thats about it.

Hecky-6
Awful first half the hoof ball wasnt good and he is the coach thats his tactic. O'Kane shouldn't have started and thats down to Hecky. Made up for it a bit 2nd half when he realised O'Kane and Dallas were offering nothing. But its a point against a side we battered last time so must do better.

A bit unfair on Dallas I feel, many fans around me was surprised he was subbed as there were others on the park much worst than him.

Dallas created the chance Ekuban should have buried, a natural goalscorer would have slid that into the net. He also had the shot early in the match which their goalie saved, admittedly Dallas should have shot across the keeper. He worked hard & deserved a 6 imo!

Positives

No sentiment from Heck, he made the necessary changes
We showed resiliance & fought back to earn a draw
Hernandez was sublime
Lassoga is looking the part as our No.9
Forshaw is so consistent & is the leader we required in the middle of the park
Anita looked neat & composed, grew into the game
Our magnificent fans who played a massive part in our comeback

Negatives

Horror show in the first-half
Wiedwald flapping from long throw-ins & crosses
Our defenders standing motionless allowing Diedhiou to take three touches before scoring their first goal
Another inept O'Kane performance
De Bock looking shaky again
Sacko's foul throw :shock:

Wiedwald 4.5 - made some good saves in the second half after a poor first half

Anita 5 - good on the ball but struggled defensively
Pennington 4.5 - a bit better in the second half after a poor first half
Jansson 5/5 - like most improved a bit in the second half after a poor first half, unlike his defensive partner looked good with the ball
De Bock 5 - like Anita, struggled for the most part to stop his opponent but improved in the second half.

Dallas 5 - did okay, nothing outstanding, nothing bad
O'Kane 4 - outplayed in the midfield throughout
Forshaw 5 - again improved in the second half after a poor first half
Hernandez 6 - our most dangerous attacking player, two goal assists and a few other dangerous passes/crosses which were wasted by the recipient, but goes to ground way to easily when beaten in a challenge

Ekuban 0 - ineffectual, can't recall him winning a single challenge for the ball or getting into a goal scoring position or creating anything
Lasogga 1 - did score a nice goal and came close to another, otherwise loses every single challenge and then throws up his arms in disbelief that such a thing should be allowed to happen

Sacko 5.5 - played his part in turning the game around
Roofe 6 - played his part in turning the game around and scored
Phillips 5 - didn't notice him much apart for the dive and the missed chance
