Adam Forshaw kills babies and old people

(so did Alioski a few weeks ago)

It used to be cooper.

To me ayling and Harrison have been shocking tor weeks and far worse than foreshaw

Jannson for the first goal against Norwich. Douglas for the Last against Norwich. Foreshaw for the first against Forest. Douglas for the a couple of goals when he disappears instead of tackling. BPF has let a couple in he should haved saved comfortably. Ayling has made costly errors.

The list could go on of players that have made errors. But that's the same with every team. Even the top teams in the world. No point hounding them like so many do.

Every single player out there is putting everything into win the games. And they have all done brilliantly to be in the auto spots. As has the manager.

I really hope that mistakes do not cost us from the players, the manager, or the board. Who have all undoubtedly made some, but if in the end they do, they will still deserve credit from lifting us from mid table to serious promotion contenders

Some, myself included, aren't criticising Forshaw - we're comparing him to the player who had that position for a large part of the season before him. On balance I'd personally opt for Kalvin, I just think he's been better this season. I'd really like to find a way to have both in - but not sure that helps the team much.

Ayling looks off the pace/laboured - still carrying an injury maybe? I thought Hernandez looked similarly laboured on Saturday too.

Ayling is a shadow of his in-form self. Has been since he came back after his last injury.

Still shows glimpses, but far from being the rock he used to be.

Agree with all the comments so far, I think it's very unfair to single out one player and not mention the many mistakes of others.
Just my opinion but I thought Forshaw was Man of the Match against Derby...but like many in the team, some mentioned in comments, he's struggling for consistency...I concede that Phillips after his rest would be a better option right now...could they both play in the Boro game, probably not, but wouldn't be surprised if they did?

Ayling has been playing like he's been p1ssed for the last month or so....yet he seems to get a pass from fans.

One misplaced from Alioski and its like he's killed the family pet.

BPF, Alioski and foreshaw have been the whipping boys. Someone starts it, momentum builds.

Everybody loves Pontus, me included... but he lost posession and then got sent off at stoke, before then he messed up two headers from corners... his job... at forest and of course messed up again on Saturday.

Phillips, Cooper, Klich, Douglas to differing degrees have all messed up leading to goals recently.

New keeper gets nutmegged.

We’re getting mistakes in a run... it’s like some infectious Fck up disease is going round the dressing room.

Some or possibly many on here have been saying how fantastic KP has been this season, now there is a debate Forshaw or KP ? Seems very strange. Did Bielsa get it wrong not bringing back KP for Norwich?
Maybe other Bielsa mistakes too in that match.
As for players not being good enough there are a few, very strange we didn’t strengthen in January.

Forshaw is a steady player, doesn’t offer enough for my liking.
When being responsible for giving goals away he becomes a liability that can’t give enough to make up for those mistakes.

A number of players have been poor. I still argue Harrison needs to practise putting in good crosses into the box and players need to be in there ready to head or tap the ball in. We play so much like Arsenal, all this possession and then we waste it in the opponents pen box.

We are all guilty of what you say, but its because we want Leeds to do well and we want them to go up. Our squad doesn't make it easy for MB to turn to other players when certain players are out of sorts.

Harrison is another, not good enough so far.

Just a thought but reports suggesting Bielsa is working (training) them too hard, if true is it having an adverse effect in performance, prone to making too many mistakes?

Harrison has got quality though. Can see theres a player in there.
