Perception is a funny thing. Watching last season I thought he only looked about 18. I never thought he was ready for the premier league and looked a little lightweight. I was impressed at the Liverpool game, less so v Fulham, and today he was imperious. He seems a foot taller and 6 years older than he did at the end of last season.

I’ve had absolutely no qualms at all in seeing Meslier become our no1 since the Arsenal game last year. Early days, yes, but he’s shown no signs of not being up to it so far. Delighted for him

Tough run of fixtures coming up, Even though I could see them picking up points if they can get back to last seasons form

Very disappointed with Wilder's comments, expect more from him...and lets be honest without the save's the goalies made it would have been around 4 or 5-2 to Leeds as their keeper played a blinder also.

Bamford himself said it went in off his nose so it was not a header it was a noser.

I remember taking a direct hit in the love spuds from about two yards on a freezing cold day and i literally couldn't speak to anyone for about 10 minutes.
