Well at least we got 3 points and that I'm very happy with
We cannot put games to bed so we always finish up clinging on at the end. Living on our nerves there and a better side could well have punished us
Thank you, Alfridi, for the link. What a tense last 20 minutes that was!!!!!
Was hoping over the international break MB had found a way to play Bamford and Nketiah together. Doesn't seem so.
Remember we're missing some key players
If .. and it's a big IF, Pablo can come back in showing some of his old form and feeding Nketiah, we might be on the brink of some convincing wins,
True 756, we have missed Pabs massively. Frightening thing is, he might be the key to us scoring more.
Who does Pablo replace when fit?
Are we going to drop the man we’re about to pay 15m for, for him?
Birmingham fans throwing seats about and kicking and punching stewards, apparently! Police have come in now and are moving Birm’ham fans out of the stadium but they are saying they’ll see the Leeds fans outside!!!
What a horrible way to end our centenary celebrations.
Why the hell doesn't Bielsa instruct Alioski to stop wasting shots and pass to someone who can get it on target. Been saying this for several seasons but the guy hasn't grasped the fact that he can't shoot to save his life.

Live today, fight tomorrow. Good 3 points, but we still aint killing teams off, we haven't managed to score 2 goals in a home league match in the 6 games at ER so far. Need Pablo back and probably Eddie also.

Why didn't Gianni cut that back to Eddie?
Love the guy but he gets a rush of blood whenever he has sight of goal!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yet when Eddie should cut back for Alioski for an open goal you say nothing?
For anyone who believes facts, BBC stat tracker
saying we had 15 shots scored 1. Brum had 16 shots scored zip. Today at least, they seem to be as crap at
converting chances created as us.
why did bamford go off today for Eddie considering he holds the ball up well?
Centenary shirt looked brilliant.
Afridi, apart from the run which should have led to a penalty what real part did Eddie play. We were certainly better with Bamford on than we were when he wasn't. Other than the goal and the five minutes after it Birmingham were the better side in the second half and having no player that we could get to who could hold the ball up made us weaker. We were awful for parts of the second half, not sure Nketiah was the reason but I don't think he's the answer to our issues up top.

With Alioski, there's no such thing as an open goal. As Salonika says, he gets a rush of blood. Even when he did 'score' the other week, his shot was going out and luckily deflected in off the defender.

67 mins I think...
...and Lorra...it wasnt Alisoski lost his head, it was Eddie..never looked up at all.. personally I think Bamford would have seen that and put the ball through to him, the way he laid it off in the first half to create our best chance. .
We looked worse after Nketiah came on

So you don't want one of our highest scorer to have a go at goal? Well then, maybe you could tell us who you want to make those shot then?
Yes a lot worse.
And interesting that there is a lot of comments on here from a lot of posters and no one seems to have noticed we were playing a different formation today. Explains a lot.

We played a lot of different formations at times.
Bit confusing at times
There was like there wingers on once at one bit
Thought the three at the back worked quite well in the first half. Lot of space left in front of them in the second though.
