Leeds United - v - Fulham ***Matchday Thread***

[CalverleyBoy]

Just watched the goals again, well taken by Costa and Bamford was very composed for his, maybe he will be better in this league with less chance of somebody chopping him down

What did you think of the goals we conceded?

Not happy, we can't be given so many penalties away and the back desperately needs to get tighter. Hopefully a few more games and practice sessions will see Meslier taking more charge of things

New back four and coopers first game back - sure we will get better defensively

You would hope so as your name states. I will give Koch 5 games to see where he is at but to me, he seems soft easy to just shove aside.
He and cooper seem similar so don't know if it can work out. White was a workhorse and had heaps of class with the ball.
Looking at the money we spend we should have just given it to Brighton and went in the same ass.
I was one saying move on but now I wish different after seeing what we brought in.
Dallas was hardly mentioned by anyone he must have had a shocker for a change?

Just home. Leeds coming on MOTD. Happy days.

We are only 3pts of the top of the premiership

Do they let you home often

Defence looked a bit more organised yesterday, Koch showing some signs of class / aerial ability, but work still to do.
New recruits still needed, think one key area is DM / CM - competition / backup for Phillips. and protection for back four.

All keepers, at all levels, will have a mare occasionally. The difference between Casilla and Meslier is that one is supposedly a mature, first calls keeper who has played for a serious European club, but messes up consistently, the other is a ****ager who helped us get promotion with his performances but has some growing up to do and experience to gain, who has had a "bad day at the office" today (and will have again, occasionally). I know who I would like between the sticks for the rest of the season.

Just to emphasise the point, Pickford and De Gea had "moments" today that you wouldnt expect from seasoned PL players.
