    Squad has lightweight look

    Getting the right balance / blend of large no-nonsense types with smaller quicker types is key, but think TC has underestimated just how physical the league is.
    Saiz ( whos been brilliant last few games ) & Vierra ( made a difference ) the likes of Allioski / Hernandez / Okane, when played together with the above two, all very similar in build & style. How many games has the midfield been outfought / bullied and pushed off the ball - Leeds teams in general have always had a hard / solid midfield, so letting the attacking players do their stuff, but at present we are lacking that presence in the centre.
    Same goes for Grot, tall, strong physical build, but rarely wins much in air or on the deck, he should be a nightmare to play against, sadly not at present.

    Whoevers decision it was to let Bridcutt and Green go needs their head checked . Should of broke the bank to keep Bartley too.

    Woulda Shoulda Coulda .

    Would definately take back Grayson or Evans.

    We look soft as the preverbial at the moment

    we are soft. we are softer than one of whining wengers teams without the corresponding talent.

    hard to stomach getting "out committed". I think it's harder to watch than the lean years when we had no talent but would play as hard as we could.

    Saiz and Vierra are brilliant but they are finese players as are roofe, hernandez and several others. we have quite a few lumps that aren't particluarly skilled nor particularly hard.

    Have no clue why Dallas is not playing regularly.

    Berardi is a man.

    we miss Bartley badly.

    been saying for a few seasons that our midfield is soft as shighte. Love watching our luxuary players this season, but without the necessary bite alongside them, well, reminds me of Eddie Grays young team back in the 80's, nice to watch, but ultimately not good enough.
