Leeds United - v - West Ham United ***Matchday Thread***

[WTF11]

We didnt play that bad, all things considered, the Klich miss was a shocker, he even had time to control it, but still missed from 7-8 yards, also whist Antonio is a powerful lump, Shacks tackle / covering for their winner, was non - existent. Miss match maybe, but then it shows our lack of cover in CM.

Cresswell was the main man covering Antonio (and for the most part did an absolutely stellar job in a very physical competition). Cracked record maybe, but had he had a few more games under his belt he might have known/anticipated what Antonio would do on the break (he nearly intercepted at the death). As it is, he and Shackleton were amongst the better performers, just a shame they didn't come out in the winning side.

Maybe but to be fair to Antonio he is a real handful and took his chance incredibly well. Do you think they maybe tired a little towards the end as we were still bombing forward when we could.

We got suckered on the counter which is always a horrid way to lose.

Looks like Forshaw out for another month.

Perfect game for Struijk to have sat on Antonio all game and wrestled with him (damn the FA).

When all our CB are fit on talent alone think Cooper might now be 5th and no higher than 4th.
