Weird game tonight. Leeds were so much better than we were but we set up very differently - didn't try to play out, went long constantly and held a very rigid shape.
Regardless of how much Leeds dominated I didn't particularly feel like we were going go concede a second goal as we restricted them to very few genuine opportunities.
If they had a proper striker, and were able to maintain that level of performance consistently, they'd be run away winners of this league. Very impressive tonight and worked so hard... I read someone on our forums say that we were third to every ball!
Charlton certainly did us a favour too. Strange League.
I think Phillips was the difference tonight, it just shows how good he is and far too good for this league. I think last night was an example of how to play diagonal balls
You are right though, for all the domination on the ball I could never see us scoring, but that's built up over the season, we're just nonclinical. That said, only one chance really fell to Bamford, I don't think Watkins had any. I think it was a night for the defenders.
Casilla is just going to keep playing and keep ****ing up, argh.
Bristol City next at home, must win that.
