The tactics. We saw the same tactics countless times away in the Championship and saw similar results.

No he didn't. I even questioned his fitness earlier. He looked slow to me.

My concern is not so much the result, I’m in the ‘we’ve got bigger things to concentrate on’ camp to be honest.

But, my god, if that’s what we are relying on as back-ups, we are in real trouble if we get injuries.

To be honest it was typical Leeds.....done it so often that it's become a nasty habit...not sure why but it has. I fear another embarrassment on Saturday.

A lot of the poor performance was due to players not used to playing with each other.

The pace picked up enar the end when the usual suspects came on.

DCL chances - difficult first one, then 2 well defended.

Didn't deserve to be criticised too much for those.

The penalty though????

Which I might take on board if I had any respect for people that post on twitter.

Already have injuries unfortunately… Gruev and Longstaff look a long way off I’m afraid

He is the crab-passer extraordinaire.
Must've missed the Jansson-esque tackle to prevent a certain second. Him and Bornauw were fine, it was midfield and up top who were shite.

Another bad loss in a week and Farke could be in trouble - Marathe probably already sounding out Chris wilder.

Cannot believe I just watched that game without swearing once.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Stach has gone home to pack.

Ah well I will cling onto the hope that Farke teams always start a season slowly.
