Don’t think we should knee jerk to the result but we do need to think about the performance.
Leeds were good tonight and deserved their win. They exposed us with the press and defended well when they worked out how to deal with our wide men. We had no answers after that which is the main problem.
We must find a way to be more dangerous against a team that is able to be compact and press us.
Well played Leeds, lessons to be learned for us. We need more movement in the box for our wide players to either play off or find. Too many times we’re attacking the box but then don’t have a player to find. I also hate this floating crosses to the back post constantly from wide.
I’m knee jerking to the performance not the result. I’ve been knee jerking to the performances for the last 3 weeks or so. I wish Leicester would do the same rather than drifting to this pretty inevitable loss which shouldn’t really be a surprise to anyone after we stole a win against QPR playing dreadfully.
If we played like Leeds did and lost I wouldn’t remotely be concerned. When we lost to Hull I was fine with it. What I’m not fine with are declining performances and a total lack of creativity. We need to get better and fast otherwise that lead will quickly evaporate
I think what’s even more concerning is Enzos post match interview. Thinks we created lots of chances, thinks the result was unfair and was happy with the performance.
I don’t think the performance was terrible 99 and we won’t coke up against many teams as strong as Leeds this year.
But if Enzo genuinely thinks we created chances and weren’t second best for that game he is either protecting his team or on drugs.
What could have been 17 points is now 11. We deserved that for sure but the title is yours to lose.
As a side note we’ve had a few games where the opposition has had no shots in target. Rodin and Struijk have been awesome this season.
Good luck - I hope you go up with us.

It wasn’t a good performance in the second half at all. I’d say you’re on a few drugs yourself if you think that second half was anything other than poor by our standards. 😂 We gave the ball away, we were ponderous in attack and barely created a clear cut chance. That’s not good enough - let’s stop giving all the credit to Leeds because in truth, while they were excellent - they didn’t have to work that hard for the win in the end.
QPR were woeful and we almost came unstuck against them. Fans keep saying ‘wait til we click’ - well we need to start clicking because eventually performances catch up with you. We’ve done incredibly well and half arrsed quite a few wins - but that needs to be a wake up call
"let’s stop giving all the credit to Leeds because in truth, while they were excellent - they didn’t have to work that hard for the win in the end."
Surely the way Leeds played prevented you from playing your game?..
Think it unfair not giving credit where it is due!..

Leicester looked poor because they met a team that was better than them for 97 minutes.
End of.

Well done for those comments 99 and I salute your honesty. I think this result has done our auto chances a world of good - I don’t think it’s affected yours too much. You’ll still sail autos imho👍.

I agree. You stopped us played and did it very very effectively. We had no answers and that’s because of how Leeds stifled our creativity and caused us issues on the counter.
Our wife men were getting so much joy in the first half but real credit for adapting and totally stopping that in the second. That’s when 99 quite right points out that we were poor in our response and needed a plan B. I don’t think Enzo wants a plan B but he might need one.

I said let’s stop giving Leeds ‘all the credit’, not that we shouldn’t give Leeds any. I also said Leeds were excellent. But it takes two to tango. Yeah you made it hard for us - but as league leaders and potential champions (and everyone has been declaring we will be for some time) we should be able to respond to that at home and actually create a shot on target inside 94 minutes
It was actually similar against QPR - they had us sussed for most of the game and we looked pretty toothless to be honest. QPR have been awful this season but made us look average. At some point we have to look at ourselves because our performances have been declining despite picking up wins.

See my above post - we’re in total agreement on a lack of a plan B but I’m not even sure Plan A has been effective over the last couple of weeks. The problem with Plan A is that we haven’t replaced Maddison and we have little creativity in the midfield to cut teams open. We therefore rely on the wide players and teams are starting to figure that out

Your two wide guys look very impressive to be honest. However, Byram is a right back at left back and our right back is a 19 year old kid who’s best position is midfield.
They both got shredded at times but the two in the centre managed to keep things quiet for our keeper.
