Brentford v Leeds Utd Match Thread

[Genghers]

Some rotation required for Villa now. I agree with faaip that we could do with looking at some of these u23 prospects in the first team now - Dallas, Harrison, Bamford all looking too average. At least a Bogusz / Kun would be an unknown quantity.

I've turned it off

Bielsa doesn't rotate. It won't happen.

[Genghers]

Ah well. Buckle in for playoffs and keep everything crossed.

Only Leeds.

[Irish Ian]

Devoid of confidence and lacking ideas.

Words of truth from the commentator.

Two games to game some sort of belief.

Well, that was a rubbish weekend (football wise).

Play-offs it is then, not sure I've got the nerves for that.

[The Subhuman]

We just look a mess when MB forces all these players into the wrong positions. Roofe and Bamford cannot be on the pitch at the same time. I've said that for months

[The Subhuman]

Bielsa doesn't rotate. It won't happen.

Agreed we've been screaming for Shack for months now off the bench. Jack Clarke probably isn't worth £100 quid right now. I've never seen a footballer fall apart like that. Came on gave us nothing, didn't chase, gave up early, lost possession easily, even jumped out of the way of one ball

Poor Jack Clarke what has happened to the boy. No control of the ball
slipping and sliding, pulling out of the tackle, poor crosses, never attcked
the ball at the back post from corners. A shadow of his former self.

I think this season end is down to poor Bielsa management, Have we made a promise to MC to play Harrison for a certain percentage of games ...could that be it. He's free if we play him will cost us if we don't ?

[BGwhite]

Clarkes got one move at the moment and every time the defenders snuff him out. Leave him out from now on, his confidence is shot. Shacks by a mile for me.

More to the point Bielsa must be seeing this in training because you cannot train well then fall apart like that in games. why is he even in the squad?

Gotta say I wasn't looking forward to a relegation campaign next season but the 100M plus would have been nice

It's incredible the difference we've seen in Clark since his return from injury. I don't recall ever seeing such a drop in form before. Not that he's the only one of late. Even Pablo has been poor recently.

That is what is so frustrating, we have good players who are performing poorly at the wrong time for us. I reckon only Klich and Jansson have consistently played close to their best over the last few games.

Might even be Villa in the semi at this rate. 3 times in the next 4. Could get quite humiliating.

At the end of the day, just the same old story. Not taking our chances, opposition only needing one to score. No point Bielsa being angry at them as we all know the same team will be lining up for the Villa game. No point crying and feeling sorry for themselves, when they've got us in to this predicament with their generally laziness and poor play. Atm, they look devoid of confidence and ideas, can't see them winning the playoffs. Just put u23s in for the next two games, Shack, Gotts, Bogusz, Edmondson, Diaz, Brown all deserve chances.

[The Subhuman]

Feel punch drunk. Do we really have to endure the playoffs.

Playoffs I'll be ok with..the final two games of the season are going to be tough. Now here's a question, do we show Villa our team and set up for the playoffs

[joelufc20]

I give up

We gambled in January and lost.

Deja vu.

Same as last season and the season before.

The fact a clearly shot 18 year old is our only hope says it all.

[leedsalex]

We trust Bielsa but i just don't understand, why keep playing Harrison (awful player).
Why giving a chance to Clarke who is not the same player since coming back from his illnes and not giving a chance to Shackleton.
