Roofe defends the FK well though, BR have used up all there subs

2-1 BR, Too easy in the centre of our defence, not sure if it were PJ or Coop who should have had that covered

Both goals started with Saiz losing the ball, having a poor game.

Awful goal to concede, a free header. Dreadful defending. To be honest, we've never really looked like winning this game. Too disjointed.

Silly FK given away by Roofe for me. Plus poor coverage from our central defenders ....

Nasty from Coop, that should have been a straight red. BR right to be pissed

Dallas off for Clarke so I'd imagine Alio to wing back

Great save from the BR keeper from Klich, after good work from Pablo and Saiz. Corner - Clarke half chance, second corner. Penalty claim waived away as Alio goes down.

Shackleton on for Beradi

3 min to go, all Leeds - Klich and Alio combine to create a chance which was defended well..corner is wasted ...

BPF - 9 made a number of excellent saves
Berardi - 3 assist for the goal but was very poor against Armstrong, making a number of mistakes and lost his man for the first goal
Cooper and jansson - 6 did well, though as centre backs need to take some responsibility for conceding twice from corners
Dallas - 6 battled well but not a full back
Alioski - 3 really not sure what he adds to the team
Klich - 7 good goal but nothing special of note beyond that, good finisher and neat overall play
Phillips - 7 thought he linked the team really well
Roofe - 5 didn't do much
Roberts - 5 didn't do much
Saiz - 6 always a threat and great ball for our goal but gives the ball away too much and too cheaply

Hernandez - 6 nothing of note, nice passes and ticked the ball over well
Clarke - 4 looked off the pace to begin with, got better as he went on
Shackleton - not enough time

Ref - 10 thought he was excellent tbf, no nonsense and made consistent decisions

Poor performance, sliding down the table, bielsa looking more and more like Mr. Mediocre every game. Our record in the last six or seven games must be really poor.
