Proud of the team today. Played with pride.

Many many positives and very few negatives beyond losing to them.
Anthony sure had his crossing boots on last night and Joseph looks a real handful and at times it looked like he was sh@thousing their CB.
Apart from the minor inconvenience of sitting surrounded entirely by Chelski fans, it was an enjoyable evening in West London. Considering we left arguably our best 4 attackers on the bench I think we did really well - especially in the 2nd half. Joseph and Ampadu were excellent and Archie Gray showed what he could do if played in his preferred position. Cooper deserves a mention too as he was solid all night - shame about that last minute non-header. Firpo's defending (if you can call it that) continues to bemuse me and he was at least partly culpable for all 3 goals. The Chelski fans were very relieved at the final whistle which tells you all you need to know.
Ok, tin hat time on (not for the first time, but probably the first time on this topic), I listened to the commentary from the likes of Lee Dixon, who was gracious enough to give Gray the MoM, and to the post match interviews/comments from some bloke and two ladies (I neither know nor care where they come from), and apart from the expected bias towards the Londoners side, I didn't hear anything that justifies the kind of mysoginistic, neanderthal-type comments made by some of those posting here. You might not agree with what they said, but their opinions and comments are no more offensive to LUFC than the Robbie Savages, Joey Bartons of this world nor even the less blatantly ***ist views of the likes of Linker, Shearer, Wright etc. I thought we had collectively grown up a little, seeming not.
I see Mr Right is on it again
*YAWN*
I must not let my hatred for Chelsea and last minute winning goals and a pair of cockney slappers cloud my judgement
Now where did billy put that naughty step.....
The evening standard was pretty complimentary about Leeds especially our midfield of Ampadu and Gray
