We are so afraid to take risks we struggle to create anything against any side well organised.

We play out from the back to keep the ball, Swansea have done it to get forward.

Different mentality.

They take risks, they play 1 touch fast passes despite the risks and it pays off, fair play.

We are creating nothing and Farke needs to fix this.
We've arrived outside their box well then looking for the perfect no risk pass or shot and little creativity. Too many blind alleys run into

He's literally never getting the ball in attacking areas?

Short of turning into prime Messi what is he meant to do?

We are not that good at the back as the stats suggest.
I think it's because most teams are happy for a 0-0 and don't shoot, once teams attack us and get a shot on target, it's in the back of the net.

Apart from the only errors of judgment by Tanaka, first goal and Pascal, second, I’ve been quite impressed with our performance so far.

Just seen the second goal replay. That “shot” is so pathetic it bounces four times on its way to the goal. Very poor goal keeping.

Fannying about is what Leeds do best.

Swansea haven't had to work hard offensively for their lead. Just bide their time & wait for us to c**k-up

The worst thing about this, if we lose, is the only person who has benefited from this weekend is Scott Parker!

Swansea are well organised and we aren't that slick and would rather play safe.

Absolutely, any half decent keeper would have saved that pea roller, regardless.

Missing Ampadu, Tanaka is quality but not a true 4. We haven't won away for over two months and for me that's because we're way too negative

We are starting to show a poor away form and Swansea have a good home form so I'll be surprised if we get anything from this game.

Corner for us... We're looking a bit static out of the gate second half

I can only think of Norwich, when we were 2 nil down and came back to win 3-2 under Farke. I just have no confidence we can turn it around, that goal was a killer.

Need Gnonto and Joseph to replace Aaronson and Piroe. Is Rama going to come on?

Swansea just strolling through the defence with two silly goals. A Leeds very high press with quality subs could plug the leaks and win this. There's no excuses for not going top today and let's hope Farke isn't already thinking of a few.
