Stoke City v Leeds Utd Match Thread

[gessa]

Good team Stoke but is it me or did they tire towards the end of the first half...we got more space

What I said earlier, they can't keep that up all game. Last 15, should see us win this.
We've got to stop pumping the ball high into their area though, their CB's are lapping it up.

Stoke were beginning to lumber, perhaps Leeds are the fitter team
and that will matter as the game goes on. Leeds fans in good voice

Half time oranges boys... and go out there and set out your stall,
this is a game of two halves... let's play across the pitch and have
jumpers for goal posts.

Wait a minute that is old Skool Fat Frank talk.
Bielsa on the other hand is warming up his half time powerpoint
and pointing out charlie adams needs to be negated in the midfield
and the game is ours.

Games like this where the lack of depth is an issue, Stoke have a bench of potential game changers, we have kids, could really do with a couple of new players, or atleast Brown and Bamford getting back.

Klich, Roofe, Pablo, Harrison all need to do more.

Clarke is being doubled up on at every opportunity.

[Cjay]

Like to see us swap Harrison and Clarke just for something different.

[Cjay]

oh for f**k sake that was dire

[danhirons]

Mistake from Klich results in their goal 1 down. Performance devoid of any quality

[Cjay]

Cooper and Klich between them, absolutely pathetic defensive play.

Totally agree so many poor performances but Noone to come on to replace them

[The Subhuman]

1-0 Stoke, that was a s**t show in defence...too many chances to clear go begging

[leedsmad]

Very poor by Klick

[HarryofOz]

Damn it

[gessa]

Is this really the same team that played against Derby?

[leedsmad]

There getting numbers on us at every opportunity

[leedsmad]

Roofe hasn't touched the ball

[whiteswan]

Flip! But from what you'd all said I felt it coming. Have to come from behind....again!

[danhirons]

Guys guys, let's pass it so slowly and let everyone get back and defend. Then let's stand still and somehow try to break them down but passing it left to right until we're tackled.

Sums us up right now

[The Subhuman]

Shack for Harrison please ...he's too easily tackled

[Cjay]

Its to slow and to easy, Stoke have big strong defenders, keep narrow, force us to cross, Roofe hasnt a hope in the air against Stoke, its far to simple.

[gessa]

Harrison getting plenty of the ball but alas doing nothing with it.
