Definite penalty on Gnonto, but WBA good value for the lead…we are poor again!
Great first half Leeds. Toothless, refereeless, clueless and we have our usual allocation of luck in a football match, ie none. Still, let's look on the bright side, we have good players on the bench that DF will bring on with 5 mins to go. Oh, and we have a lovely pink kit.
We all pushed for changes and it's up to these players to start showing something.
Possession means nothing if you don't finish it off.
Meanwhile, on another football planet, PNE are losing at home to Sheffield Wednesday.

Gnoto would walk into any other team in this league
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Am I wrong or does Gnonto constantly underperform?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
hasent had much game time this season to be honest so difficult t judge him on it, however you can see he has a lot to his game and if given more game time he would probably have more stuff come off
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don’t accept that - I seem to recall he was on fire from his very first game in the Prem.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
True, but he was coming in hot, having, i believe, played games for his old club, he has been a bit part, at best so getting back upto speed could take time.
He should have had a pen and he has had a couple of decent bits this game, its not like he is terrible player playing terribly.
its just not coming off for him
Very poor again. As a side we are falling between 2 stools. We are not physical enough for the Championship and not skilful enough for the Premier League
our front 4 look ineffective.
For all the possession, you just know opponents will come more into the match, look more and more dangerous on the break and if it weren't for spence we'd be 2 down.
Piroe free kick into wall, Gnonto shooting straight into player infant of him its these two that I'd change at some point.
I'd like to see Gray for Gruev, Bamford of Joseph for Piroe and James for Gnonto.
Not straight away and not all at once, but I'd make 2 of these chances no later than 10 mins in if still the same.
Overall midfield defensive 2 and not effective enough defensively and offer nothing offensively.
I think back to England in Euros, one of Rice or Philips would hold whilst other went forward and they'd cover each other, our two just seem to want to both stay back, I think Gray could make a real difference.
Let’s get it right this squad should get promoted
Farke has rightly been commended for what he has done since he joined us
But this is becoming a concern. We’re being overtaken by others and were looking predictable
Need a lot more from Piroe, Gnonto, Bamford etc
Ipswich only need to score now and it’s another nail in our auto hopes.
Am at work. But I can see from the comments here, that we struggle with the same old.
Maybe those eight games without a defeat, led us to think they are better then what they actually are.
Here's hoping for a good 2nd half.

Yep, most teams have a dip in form at points in the season, it's how you respond to it that counts
How the feck did the referee not give that penalty.
Premier league ref, no wonder they need VAR
Southampton were behind us a week ago 6 points ahead as it stands
Refs had a bit of a mare. Definitely a penalty on Willie. We’ve created a few half chances but they’ve always had men in the box to block.
Byrqm caught out a few times and the goal was always coming from his side.
We can still get something but need more up front.
When Spence passed to Gnonto he missed a great chance to hit it with his right foot instead of passing.
If Gnoto was given that pen I doubt anyone would be moaning about him to be honest

Shows how easy it is to catch teams if they drop a few points.
Dare i say bring Bamford on?

Personally I would, I'd drop Rutter to ten and bring him in for piroe.
Think he might open it up a little more for the other front three with his hold up play

With gruev only seeming to pass backward having rutters creativity a little further back would make sense
