    Dubravka- stick Weiss in goal.

    He was so late going down for Leeds first goal it was untrue, and made a mess of the tap in from close range. He started off this season very well, but like the team, he?s gradually got worse. I know that most of the time, a goalkeeper is only as good as the defence in front of him,but last night, I felt he should have done better. Stick the youngster in between the sticks and let?s see what happens. It can?t be any worse ,can it. Last night, we made Leeds look like Bayern Munich, and better than they are. The fans who travelled over the Pennines, should have got a refund. They , like the armchair fans, deserve a lot better than last nights performance. It?s not the club we all know.

    100% agree malwayne.

    No sense in not blooding Weiss.

    Only Hannibal and Tchaouna looked like they actually gave a $hit.

    Finally, how bad as an EPL centre-back pairing are Esteve & Ekdal?

    Morecambe & Wise would be better, at least they were funny and these two are not.

    We should let Weiss have a go in the remaining games, we have nothing to lose.

    Ekdal as the turning circle of the titanic, he is also slow at reading the game

    Esteve is the most overrated CH by Burnley fans in the clubs history he is just so bloody weak and crap in the air. O'Shea IMHO was a far better player, who is strong in the air and poses a threat on set pieces into the box, with Esteve being no threat

    We spent all that money on Broja when we could have got McBurnie on a free and saved ourselves a packet, on a player who would have put himself about and given us a threat on corners. I get he isn't premier league but what as Broja brought to the table, and I won't go down the Foster route

    I don't like McBurnie, I don't rate him, never have, but 15 goals for Hull this season says I've got him wrong, you can't argue with that. As Mr B says, he's a far better proposition than the couple of planks we paid good money for, Foster and Broja.

    It?s so difficult to criticise tbh as I can?t work out Parker?s setup. ( even though we?ve watched them ).

    With respect the centre backs are only part of the problem I don?t think it?s all the centre backs fault as the midfield in front is alive the place.

    We need a manager who understands the game and can set us up to compete - I put from
    Day on Parker is a nice fella unfortunately that doesn?t win you games in football.
