Leeds Utd v Wigan Athletic Match Thread - Unchanged Starting XI for Leeds, Berardi on the Bench

[Denman]

TBH TC had to be sacked, Rads probably just used the first justification he could think of..If I listed all Leeds managers in all my years supporting them then TC would be right at the bottom

Surely not Faaip. Heck?

[paddy parrott]

So are you just saying or stating that we should stop watching now..?
Sounds like pre -judging a man that is only Just, Loyal , disciplined & appointing The Blame only on himself when something doesn't seem to offer what is that clearly obvious to mere mortals .
It's all in the game and I advocate the not guilty & exemplary conduct of the man that shows only his humility & belief ,love of his fellows.

Heck got a pile of disenchanted unfit broken players with no chance to add his own and which basically took him till the end of the season to just get fit..Can't imo blame Heck for that. Irrespective of how good or bad he is/was as a manager

Sorry Paddy I have no idea of context here...or who you're talking about

[paddy parrott]

So the jury is still out...! Not verdict "till May.

Oh dear, another game we shouldn't have lost far too many errors all over the park.

Positives

We were the better team but that doesn't say a lot as Wigan are a set of big lumps with little quality
Klich, at least he tried to drive us forward.
White the only defender who seems to know the art of defending.
We created chances.
Harrison's little dribble & unlucky shot hitting a post.
Also Jack's cross for Bamford's flying header blocked by a defender.
Roberts fit again.

Negatives - FAR TOO MANY!!!

Lost three of of our last four games to poor/average teams, not a single point
So many missed chances....same old problem
How did Jack miss yet another open goal.
Bamford's first-half shocking effort
Alioski, Dallas & Costa all shooting over the bar.
Costa shocker, did he actually beat the first man once with his crossing.
Alioski's two inept crosses when we were in a great position
Another scrappy goal conceded, clean sheets seem to be a essential aspect of defending of the past.
Kiko flapping like a bird at the back post.
Ayling misjudging the pace of the ball trying to run it out for a goal-kick, conceding a corner TWICE.
We concede far too many senseless corners.
Pablo not on song.
We lack a leader.
Team selection.
Why was Augustin not even on the bench.
We started & finished with Dallas whilst we have three midfielders in Poveda, Shackleton & Roberts on the bench.
So Big Kev & Poveda are not fit enough to play a part but the injury prone Roberts who has been injured for three months comes on as a sub.
When we required something different, nothing happened.
We miss Phillips who orchestrates play from the back.
Have we learned any lessons over the last eighteen months?

3 Casilla
5 Ayling
7 White
6 Cooper
4 Alioski
5 Dallas
4 Costa
7 Klich
5 Hernandez
6 Harrison
4 Bamford
Sub
6 Roberts

I've changed mine to Syd Barrett.

Not sure if serious ...mine is the return of Queen B..

[The Subhuman]

Like the MB pic...very brooding, almost Austen-esque

Queen B has been an avatar of mine several times over the last 15 years. She's a Puscifer construct which is a Maynard James Keenan side project, which has produced some wonderful music in the past and one very bawdy country and western song
