Based on his cameo today cant see that being an improvement.

Id try Cibicki, seems an intelligent player who played a few nice passes against burnley, bit of pace to.

If Ali is dropped prefer a chance for Cibicki

He'll come Good, I'm sure. He clearly has potential but I think he's getting a bit frustrated not getting decisions from refs that he'd probably have got in Switzerland. As I said on the match thread, I'd be inclined to put him on the bench for Reading and bring him on as an impact sub. Doesnt seem...

Impact sub for me too

Maybe a spell as a sub to take some of the pressure of would do him good.

But cant see who replaces him.
Roofe and Dallas dont seem to be the answer and Sacko is still and enigma

Give grot a shot or Cibicki?

Just seen the 1st goal again.

Lees rose above his marker cant see where jansson could get the blame. There was Lees marker behind him couldn't really jump.

Wiedwald should have come flying out taking man and ball.

But it was Phillips who let Hooper go.

The Leeds fans who were there
Jansson (may have been at fault for 1 goal but not easy covering for the 3 other defenders, goalkeeper and the 2 cms

Played on the left mostly today didn't he? Looks better on the right but skill players are notoriously inconsistent at this level. You have to take the rough with the jaw dropping. Happy to have him continue and sort out our central defence, central midfield and he becomes a weapon Agreed. Twitter ...

He should and cant for the life of me see why he didnt seeing as he did exactly that for Wood, practically identical situation

1964white wrote:What

Both of them offered us very little attacking & defensively

And Sacko did?

We had bigger problems like the mess in the middle of the pitch, those changes meant we couldn't fix that.

Refuse to allow myself to become fuming over Leeds United, life is too short for that

Uusure what TC is going to do to sought this mess out

Calmed down now, watching it was making me angry

Agreed, i didn't get carried away after first 8 games, it's a long long season and teams can go on a bad run as easily as they have a good one, our home form looks like it will carry us forward so hopefully those next 3 can get us back to winning ways. We lack A keeper A left back A quality centre ...

Another defeat and another twitterfest of criticism for Alioski :hammer: Cant help but feel that its over the top and if anything he is a victim of expectation. The YouTube videos of Messi like stuff, the fantastic season, the "bigger club " interest. Not suggesting that he has been fantas...

What do we think of Shog in midfield? Seems to be a good tackler, decent distribution and has a bit more height and strength..Don't think he's a centre back and DMF is his natural position. Vieira for me, he is tenacious and just needs a bit of discipline . . Said so in a thread the other day, he c...

Agree vieira should be given a chance but klich was equally as bad last game so not sure we can replace them both I dont think he was, he made a terrible mistake but his all round game wasnt as bad as Phillips and O'kanes today imo. The best all round performance ive seen from a midfield under pres...

Knew someone didnt react to the second ball, didnt realise it was Jansson, then that was poor from him, he stays with Hooper then no goal.

Think the one thing we can all agree on is the 2 in the center were poor, Phillips and O'Kane have played in 2 of our 3 defeats and both times it was agreed they were poor, didnt protect the back four, didnt fight for the ball etc. Phillips has played in all 3 of our defeats.

Have to rewatch it but wasnt it a second ball? as much as he should have done more somebody wasnt marking there man

Think he could have done better with Hoopers, he flaps, he just waives his arms and hopes. The two saves were ok, either one goes in and it's a keeper error. My remit for great saves is stopping a certain goal. Perhaps so. But he was far from the reason we lost. Know Felix isnt a popular figure but...

Wiedwald-5 he doesn't inspire confidence but made some saves.far from the worst player. Ayling- 6 tried his best, ok nothing more. Jansson-10 . Feel so sorry for him. Pennington-4 . .forgot he was playing. Hooper and Fletcher just bullied him. Berardi- 3 . Slowly being shown for what he is, a right ...

I think that the confidence and stability of the defense starts with him being replaced.

In fairness to Felix he made 2 crucial saves . Hoopers he tipped onto the bar.
Dont think having Lloris would have made our midfielders protect the back 4 any better

TC has to take a lot of responsibility.

His subs Sacko and Pablo were baffling.

His insistence on playing O'Kane and Phillips again who have shown they cant battle and compete.
