Leeds Utd v Swansea City Match Thread

[White Riot]

That's the worry with our subs, that we have to be a couple up before bringing them on. If we were chasing a game, we'd be fucked looking at our bench.

Correct OM

Plus, as I said before, apart from a couple of players on the bench, if our first teamers get injured we're knackered.

Doesn't surprise me ..

True, he only had 10 minutes to do what he normally does, just not enough time

[Cjay]

Comfortable in the 2nd half

Nervy in the 1st.

Still a bit open at times but got back well.

Should have made more of the chances when Swansea made mistakes.

But good enough.

Feel Piroe deserves a mention today, he has really struggled in that role but felt today was one of his more rounded performances.

Summerville and Rutter were as usual.

Kamara and Ampadu got overrun at times but did better 2nd half.

Mistake aside the back 4 were solid.

James had a hit and miss game but took his goal well.

Felt Bamford also used his body well at times when he came on.

Agreed!

Now watching Ipswich v Millwall.

Millwall are not going to score 2 if they played for another hour.

1 win in 4 from Leicester, not automatic form...

Swansea nowhere near as good as Rotherham and they never looked good enough to hold us. We were very good right through the game

Highly impressive and despite the moaning here, we've pulled more points back

Definitely seem to be falling back down to Earth.

Usually does ... We have 25 points from our last 11. Season is just maneuvering till January anyway

Looking at the stats, the wendies definitely deserved to get something from the game

A draw would be good, but we need to win to keep the pressure on.

[The Subhuman]

Away draws are not to be sniffed at ...

Am I right in thinking Greenwood can't play Saturday?
