    That was disappointing, we had 4 or 5 good chances, no-one had their shooting boots on, even Trippier`s freekicks and corners were pretty hopeless. but..............all in all I`d say what a year we`ve had, well done the whole team inc management, owners and players

    Back down to earth with a bump. Bit of an off day for us and Leeds played well for them.
    I would say we only have one really good finisher in open play on the team. He didn’ t get any chances after he came on and the rest of the ‘finishing’ was very poor today.

    On the bright side; a clean sheet and we didn’t lose.

    He surely cant start against Arsenal Joelinton needs to move back to midfield to offer protection and start the Saint on the wing.

    It was similar to the Bournemouth and Palace home games earlier this season - we seem to run out of ideas.

    There need to be some rule changes too to cut displays like Leeds in the last 5 minutes. It’s bad for the game and the ref got sucked in - I reckon Leeds stole 2 minutes of the game today.

    Tbh, a point is a good result.

    Leeds played well and fought hard. They played the game and did what they needed to do. Sh!thousery we applaud from our boys.

    So, to be fair we just didn't take our chances but still unbeaten in 12, 2 points of city in 2nd.

    Life is good and we are awesome! Eve of 2023, tranfer window opens. Time for us to invest and consolidate the top 4 spot.

    We are so far ahead of schedule that we as fans are getting a little presumptuous. Last season we'd have torn their arm off for a draw and a 12 game unbeaten run.

    However I will concede that the ref lost control, well didn't have control of the game at all. Bruno got kicked to bits.

    That was shocking.

    ASM was the biggest disappointment for me personally. He never plays well off the bench.

    Looking forward to signings.

    God bless you all and families for 2023 lads and lasses

    Sorry, Mids, but I agree with this.

    if he couldn't be arsed or did a Mike Williamson or a Ciaran Clark even, then maybe you'd have a point. We know he's the player you like the least but an apology? Howay, man. We're all disappointed, especially straight after the game but...

    Longstaff has been good enough to start and was part of the team that got us to 2nd and Howe clearly values the job he does. Grantedhe has his limitations but he does a lot of good, hard work that goes unnoticed. He deserves a break, imo.

    They came to frustrate and did just that. We will miss Trippier against Arsenal. They’re 2 up just now and with. Its drawing could be drifting away from the pack. Not that I had us down as title contenders.

    It’s true - Arsenal look good (and better than us at the moment). They’re currently ripping (a very decent) Brighton side ‘a new one’.

    A point on Tuesday would be a very good one. I agree we are not title contenders. This is talk from some media pundits who, as we all know, know very little about football.
    A top 6 finish would be truly exceptional for us this season but there is much to be done before that can happen, and a lot will depend on a certain Mr Isak when he returns.
