When we're in greta form, why go so defensive and negative? Go at them rather than playing for the draw.

Disappointing.

Yep. Confidence sky high and we play a CF in there to defend set pieces and leave out a player whose been influential in recent games.

Got it wrong today, it happens.

I liked the high pressing at the start of the game, but other than that it was disappointing.

Hopefully he's seen enough of Gestede after today.

Which player is that? If it's Grealish, he seemingly wasn't fit to play 90 minutes.

Ill plus collided with Bunn in training.  It's not a criticism to have him on the bench, if Grealish is the player being referred to.

I think the plan was to press and harry them having played a game midweek and then bring on Jack/Ayew/Gabby to run at a tired defence. 

Probably a sound enough idea but our players just didn't play terribly well and Leeds did not really fade,  in fact they got stronger which is of great credit to them.  But I can see Bruce's thinking and don't think it was too far askew. 

Got to face a smug Leeds fan on Monday now :angry:

The early tactics actually worked though, what I can't understand is why you take off adomah who looked the most threatening player on the pitch.

He was struggling from a knock.  I thought he was going to be taken off straight away when he was hobbling around a bit.

what worries me the most is that whilst we don't concede many goals, we always seem to at least concede on. Only one clean sheet since Bruce arrived and only 4 for the entire season. We play negative football, which means we HAVE to be able to keep clean sheets, as we are terrible in attack.
