And why isn't Tanaka starting? In the 5 mins we've seen of him so far he's streets ahead of any competition he has in this midfield

I'll say it now. Farke will not get us promoted.

Time to get one more. Tanaka?

We’ve been average again.

Too negative

Disagree, but the Championships his limit. Said that since day 1. We'll get promoted, the league is bang average and we're op

Tanaka should be starting all day long.

Give him time, took Gruev till January to oust Kamara.

Take the 3 here obviously. But as others have said, we have looked very ordinary, we make scoring look so difficult. Even if we do go up, I couldn't see us beating anyone in the PL with the current squad and tactics of the manager. Do they stick with DF or take a punt and go with someone who will cost ££££ but be able to take us somewhere.

FT. Certainly not a great performance … but we’ve won. I’ll take that atm. Anyway, thanks for the thread Earl, enjoy your hols and go well all👍

Have to hope we don't need 90 points.

FT
Thanks for joining in everyone
Terrible game but have to say the camaraderie amongst us all is so good.
Its a joy to do these kaych threads

Three points
We may well have a bit more bite when Dan James is fit again.
Cheers Earl , cheers all .

3 huge points. But we're so negative.
Got to change up the midfield, we have the bench.

Made a meal of it but three points..... better than I expected beforehand

I have never felt so flat after a win. I'm off for a drink with Lowefield and the Donn.

Piroe a guaranteed 20 plus goal striker wasted by Leeds

I’d go for counselling first 🤣🤣

4 clean sheets in 6. Unbeaten away from home with the draw being against West Brom who have won their other 5 games.
The 2 games we’ve conceded have been incredibly unlucky not to win based on game and chances.
The 3 wins we’ve had have been strolls in the park.

I’d be shocked if we don’t get top 2. I get why there is negativity after last season but this has been a good start, league will start to take shape over the next 10 games.

Wished id just seen the result and not bothered watching it.

You're kidding, Best, aren't you? We should be annihilating Cardiff with ten players. We should be giving playing time to Tanaka, Rothwell, Issak and Piroe. We should be doing much more with corners and free kicks and we have to be more incisive. I will leave you with a statistic. We had 35 touches in their box. Think about that. Any team with that amount of possession has to be scoring more than two goals.

If this is the embodiment of Daniel Farke, God help us – and him. According to BBC, total touches in the box = Cardiff 2 - Leeds 39. And we only come away with 2 goals playing 10 men for most of the game. Something's got to change.

Touches in the box mean nothing if you have five players around you.

Hard to understand but some teams play ten behind the ball and are difficult to break down. Even Man City couldn’t score the other night!

Sheet happens.

Did we at any point not look like winning? From minute 1 to 98 we completely controlled the game.

We battered them. Finishing was poor. If Aaronson scores near post by shooting with right instead of weird decision to shoot with left or Ramazani scores a tap in by shooting anywhere but keeper or Struijk scores a penalty, we’d have won 3 nil and be saying easy win

Ok, I get your point, we got the win. At the end of the season, that's all that will count. But yet again, we miss golden opportunites. We also failed to give some proper playing time to our bench players, when there was very little risk. Farke is not getting the best out of his squad.
