Lucky bounce for Palace and as I say we've had no luck today

Well the games gone to type for Leeds so far, should have scored 3 or 4 they get one chance and score from it.

It was coming tbh. We are utterly awful marking at set pieces. No one follows the runner, far too static, no awareness.

Our defending at set pieces has cost us, as has giving away sloppy free kicks

Should be ahead

Much the better side.

But you can't defend like that against a side so reliant on set pieces

So annoying

Meslier should do better as well

I can't understand why people don't grasp one simple fact - we can't defend without Wober !! We were crap at defending before he came along, and we are crap at defending when he is absent.

People have confused themselves by talking about systems etc. And Wober makes Koch much more assured.

He's the first name on the teamsheet when fit.

Should be out of sight. Nervy second half. No surprise there.

Was it actually a foul by Roca? Haven’t seen a replay of it, if so fair enough.

This is nothing new being unable to defend set pieces. It's been going on for years, and we'll before Bielsa came to town.

And this is basics of football, not down to quality.

A Sunday league side will defend set pieces better the us.

Gifting results to teams that don't deserve them.

Good on the ball, same old issues though.

Palace have been woeful should be out of sight.

Did a single person on here show anxiety about Wober being absent again?

I sighed when I saw the teamsheet.I knew we would concede at least one goal.

Again, he really isn't commanding enough at times and anticipating. That said, he's not been helped by an incompetent backline.
