Leeds United - v - Wolves ***Matchday Thread***

[Tichi1]

And as for being outplayed, did you watch the second half? Toothless, flabby, lacking in shape and structure, whereas Wolves knew what they had to do, and did it, and the deflection doesn't take away from that. Their disallowed goal was adequate warning, which we either didn't, or couldn't respond to.

Nahh - we wheren't outplayed - never - you need to go to specsavers - they where better in the second half than the first. had a couple of good chances on the counter, but we had an off night - something that seems to be beyond your comprehention, and AS for their worst start to a PL season??? they didn't win any of their first five last season?? - they've just had their BEST start to a premier season tonight you muppet? As you often patronise others - check your facts before whinging abouty our performances.

Wolves will be a top ten team again this season - we lost to a fluke while not performing anywhere near our best FFS

Suppose its all about expectations - you seem to expect us to play like Man City every game [Apart from when we actually play them - then we need to play like the old Barcelona every week] but realistically that just isn't going to happen, as Jimmy Floyd pointed out tonight - who apart from Leeds supporters actually can name any of our players - if we emulate WOLVES I will be a very happy bunny

Mate Wolves were nothing special so you can imagine how bad we played. We looked cooked after the first 20 minutes If it wasn't for Meslier we would have lost 3 zip to a team that was so and so. I'm not looking forward to the Villa game after this.

Shows I should be a little more critical of the pundits and listen less to them. Ok, correct about it not being their worst start, but hardly their best...(18/19 must surely be that with three wins a one one draw following a first game defeat?) and certainly no great shakes so far with three defeats in their last four games, including Stoke FFS.

Not sure where you get me expecting us to play LIKE Sh1tty, but I DO expect us to compete, and we gave up second half, which is both uncharacteristic AND worrying. None of the subs made any impact at all, and those who started the game were just nothing in the second half, unlike ALL the performances up to date, where we have played, pressed, kept form and structure throughout 90 minutes against class opposition (and I dispute that ANY of the teams so far have been "scratch" opposition, like HO has said, most if not all of the players fielded by the opposition we have faced would be in our starting line up)_

Thought we did well for large parts of the game. Unlucky not to score first half.

Wolves just have more quality all over the pitch and more strength in depth from having spent money on the squad over quite a few seasons.

Think our start against some of the leagues tougher opposition has been good and if we can stay up for a few seasons shows where we can get to.

Struijk unlucky to not only slip but injure himself so couldn’t properly recover. If KP hadn’t for his bonce in the way we would have had a point.

Good to see Pablo back and he, Poveda and Raphina looked good when they came on.

Start of the second half we gave the ball away too easily.

Think this was a game that showed how much difference having a top quality striker up front makes. I like Bamford’s effort but still not convinced in games like this he can win us points.

Maybe Rodrigo will get a run up front with Pablo feeding him.

[Ozwhites]

Reality check was as certain as taxes. Just a matter of how many games until it happened. Actually gone further than I expected in all honesty! Bouncing back with a good performance now is the real test.

mustve watched a diferent game! thought we were ok, not our best, but ok, narrowly lost to a decent side, nowt to get suicidal about.

Amazing on the different thoughts on the game and how people seem to see it differently, But this is a pretty good assessment,

What i will add is the Wolves back four took all the plaudits and one of them got MOM award, That tells me something,

Bit of the same from last year with possession and lack of finishing, but that makes me happy as we are in the prem now,

Give credit to Wolves they stopped us in our tracks 2nd half without outplaying us,

Lots of positives i saw that someone on here said Koch was ****, Sorry i must have been watching something different the lad is class and is getting better with each game.

Oh and that Raul geezer should have been sent off that could easily have ruined Koch *** live, Ridiculous..

We move on to Friday..

Id say they came for a point and hoping to nick three.
They defended well and played us like some of the championship teams did last year.
We didnt know how to break them and didnt score when we were on top.
We wernt outplayed but maybe outmanouvered.
We are still too honest and not crafty enough.

[spaldy]

we are not relegation material and even when we are off we are still way better to watch than 75% of the teams in the prem.

It could be so much worse. we could be top half of the table and have big Sam as our coach and bore the rust off an old car.

we will finish top 12 in the league. Not bad for recently promoted (in 16 years) and playing brilliant footy.

Not sure I am massively disagreeing with you. First half we should have made the possession and chances count.

Main point I was trying to make is not a huge amount of difference but Wolves have a better squad and more quality all over the pitch.

Point was probably a fair result.
