All we need are glimpses that things will come good and we’ll be ok. In the first half we saw that but in the second that was somewhat undone.

Bielsa’s pre-planned subs were frustrating but I understand not risking Llorente and Foreshaw too much. Bigger game to come on the weekend.

I just don't understand the need to press every panic button and catastrophise, it's like we're talking ourselves into doom and gloom where we've a crap manager and a crap squad (and James is currently held up as evidence) and if we don't win the next game the season is over. In October!

I wouldn't say the "season is over " but it would be very tough, and embarrassing if we don't win at Norwich, a team everyone seems to have already written off, look at their dreadful stats, follow that up with the run coming in December, and all dosen't appear rosy at ER, hence why, a lot of supporters are a little concerned.
We all love Leeds United, most I'd say, with a passion, hence why a few are getting a little concerned, not many I know want Bielsa to go, but , most I know are saying he needs to alter slightly, last night he again blamed himself, he's always blaming himself but dosen't seem to correct what his mistakes are.
A lot don't like X Y Z players ,although a lot do like X Y Z players, thats what debate is all about, we only pour our hearts out because we care, so do the team and staff, but it's a results business, and we ain't producing at the moment, MB decides if he sticks with the same players they will eventually come good and produce, thats not always the case, a lot of times you have to bit the bullet and make changes, will he do that ?
Either way, it will be his / our downfall if they don't produce.
In the meantime, carry on.

I thought we were comfortable at half time and slightly the better team. Then, like it did last time we played at the Emirates in this cup, it was all down hill from there. Coops coming on and making that error killed the game and we looked like we wanted out. I didn't think Arsenal were great either. The whole thing second half felt lackluster which is a shame considering the players would have been 2 matches from a day out in front of the fans at Wembley.

The joys of survival it is then.
