Vs Leeds away. (Matchday thread).

Something isn’t right if they lost to Hull and got battered by forest. 

Getting beaten isn’t the problem, it’s the manner of the performance and management.Almost everything was bad tonight. Are we actually getting worse?

I bet Norwich must be kicking themselves as that shambles is what we were like for 30 mins.

Can’t remember the last game we dominated from the get go to go on and win. Always hoping the good outweighs the bad and we can win by the odd goal.

They qualify as the 'best' in a poor league - yes poor 

They qualify for the Europa league groups and Englands 7th best team dont.......doesn't say much for teams 8 to 92.

Im biased granted, but Ive seen Lowe stand upto better teams than he's playing tonight. 

Irrespective, the slagging Lowe is getting off people tonight is OTT.

I get that Lampard wants us to play good football but he needs to get the foundations in place first by having a solid team first and foremost. Even Mac in his second spell was humble enough to try and fix the defence first and foremost before working on the midfield and attackers.

We spent a lot of money on our midfielders and forwards like Johnson, Butterfield, Anya, Vydra, Lawrence and Waghorn but we don’t make big signings in defence. Look at the difference for Liverpool and Man City after they spent a lot of money on their defence. I know we aren’t in their league but it’s relative to each league everyone is in but it tells you have defence is most important. Attackers win you games, a good defence win you leagues or promotion.

Before tonights games in the head to heads between the teams in the top 6 we had the most points

Didn’t realise that. Maybe tonight will be a huge wake up call. We really need to improve the basics as another poster said, far too many misplaced passes.

Yet only a week ago wisdom was our MoM ?

Possibly but one performance does not change my opinion he made some awful challenges tonight ... tell me he isn’t slow and cumbersome but he isn’t to be singled out tonight only Holmes can truly say he put in a shift tonight

Before you all get too upset Leeds will win the league.  Our last 17 games we have played 14 games against teams in the top half of the league!! Our next ten home games 5 are against teams in the bottom 6. We play no team in the top 6 until WBA last game of the season. All to play for 2nd place get behind the team COYR.

We're almost unrecognisable from the team who destroyed West Brom 2 months ago.

Was thinking the same thing. It seems everyone has sussed us out from that point. But somehow we’re still clinging on.

What we need now is not having 4 of the top 5 in the next 4 games.

Leeds were excellent and clearly highly motivated after 3 losses and a couple returning after injury. They may have won this one, but you can see the spy scandal is going to cause them problems going forward. It clearly seems to have disrupted us too.

We were poor but little point everyone picking a player and saying how awful they were. 6th at this point is decent going and most the best teams done with.

If you haven't realised that our young side is rather inconsistent then you are a little dense. The positive though is we've shown plenty of times this season we can be very good. If Frank can get more of that, and a little less of tonight, we'll be able to try our luck in the playoffs again.

You make it sound so simple! ?
