Hey Leeds fans, Arsenal supporter here in peace.
Just thought I'd say I thought your players worked really hard and given that even you yourselves were not fielding a full strength starting XI, you put up a brave fight and gave us a few scares, particularly toward the end of the game.
I've read on other forums that some of your key players from last season have been out of form this season or that other players have not been working hard enough, but as a team today, I thought you had a well-structured and organised defensive shape and a cohesive midfield. You looked very threatening on the counter with your wingers pushing up, although I did think Beccio was isolated up front a little. We did struggle to break you down at times and your 4 defenders were pretty much perfectly aligned for most of the game.
Even after Henry scored, you didn't sit back and just settle for us winning by 1 goal, you showed courage to try and attack us and could have equalised but I guess it wasn't to be.
With that said, I do think that it was the right result in the end.
Nevertheless, if you can keep up that team spirit and resolve, you have a good chance of get promoted this season or at least consolidating a place in the play-offs.
Good luck for the rest of the season
Brave effort

Was Proud of back 5 tonight- we have the makings of a good defence there.
Apart from Adam Clayton rest of team were pretty poor,
Good result and shame that Zac lost his man for the goal but he will improve.
