Leeds United - v - Burnley ***Matchday Thread***

[alfinyalcabo]

Watched the highlights this morning , a game we should have won , a stone wall penalty not given (surprise surprise) , a reminder of quite a few games from last season , early days but the lack of a striker is killing us and will be the reason we don't go up unless the board stump up for one in the Jan TW , presuming we are still in the mix.



Play-offs is realistic.

Sorry Rev,never a penalty ,he touched the ball first and then the man.The ref got it spot on. I can understand your frustration though..Probably been given by those retards that run VAR in the Premier league.

Keep calm and carry on.

Looking at the match stats - we had 9 corners but not sure we really threatened from any of them.

Of the 17 shots we had only 4 were on target.

Hope Dan James is fit soon as his pace scared defences. Not sure if we have many who can strike if from distance but they need to find something against teams who park the bus.

Can you remember the last time when we did threaten from a corner? All corners are is a chance for the opposition to launch a counter attack. We'd be better off saying we'd rather they had a goal kick.

What he said, x2

Bielsa and Pep often just use them as a restart rather than hoofing the ball into the box for that reason.

That said a quality headed goal from a corner can be a thing of beauty.

Will have to agree to disagree Alf me old pal - tackled from behind and took both man and ball - pen in my book that.
