Nah, not seeing that hayemaker, he’s the link player, the problems are ahead and behind of him.

Perhaps, didn’t really think of it that way.

But either way, he’s not been effective and something has to change. Played his best stuff alongside Phillips, maybe that’s whats needed.

The formation we play of 4141 is dependant on a solid DM and a quality number 10...we have Pablo injured and Forshaw has played in a position too deep for his style of play.

It's a failing system.

Yes, we need Philips back in front of back four and put Forshaw back on the bench. But don`t think Bielsa will do that, he just loves Forshaw.

We looked like we were playing on roller skates. We gave the ball away and players fell over at the slightest contact. Clear pen in the first half, but we just do not get them. Without Pablo, we do not have the capacity to surprise the opposition. And Redders talks enough scheit to fertilise the whole of Yorkshire.

Bottlers - typical Leeds.

Yep agree with the first para, but it’s not the system that’s failing it’s the personnel.

You can’t legislate for individual errors (except pick players that don’t make them)... and we’ve just committed suicide so often recently

Might be pot kottle, but you been languishing in the championship for years. Everytime there’s a sniff of hope in coming up, you bottle it. I will take my club being “bottlers “ and in the CL every season

You're right, Bielsa has a blind spot when it comes to Foresaw. Sadly the guy has had one too many chances – Philips isn't great, either, but something needs to change...

Philips has been outstanding this season.

Sorry for the 'Foresaw' spelling, but that's effing autocorrect for you...

Sorry, I accept we bottled it tonight but please don't compare us to Bottle 'em Hotspur.

That was depressing.

Norwich are, aptly, mustard at the moment and deserved the win, despite being a bunch of roll-around-on-the-deck-as-if- poleaxed merchants.

Alioski wastes far too many chances by going for selfish glory, and he's a bit of a roll-around merchant himself.
Forshaw is an average Championship player .. good at some things on his day, but his clumsy slip and then bad positioning gave Norwich their second goal In fairness no blame to him for the first, nearly headed away what was a superb free kick.
Ayling just isn't the player he used to be, can't fault his attitude but he gets into places where mistakes are quickly exposed .. and these days he's making more of those mistakes.
Roofe seems to have lost his mojo in front of goal, a decent chance missed to add to two missed at Rotherham Great solo run from him immediately after Norwich 2nd, but ultimately he just ran into a wall .. plus anger-management issues starting to bubble up.
Apart from giving away THAT free-kick, I thought Pontus did pretty well, but 'pretty well' wasn't good enough vs Norwich
Douglas looked average at best, Worried, very worried, about Pablo .. off the boil and carrying a knock (?), not getting any younger
Roberts showed some decent ambition and nice touches, a little flash of class or two from Clarke and of course Bamford

Who've I missed out ?
