He blocked it

That's why they got the corner

Correct.

[1964white]

Again Justin beaten down our right... he's having a torrid time defensively

Although Justin produced some good stuff, he was nowhere near as efficient as usual.

Lots of errors in his game.

[1964white]

Lady Luck is a Leeds supporter.

I think we've had enough luck in both the Chelsea/Birmingham games to last us a season.

After a shaky start, Bijol has won almost every aerial duel

Bijol won twelve aerial duals.

[1964white]

Well according to some we won't miss Okaror.

We will, Noah is just coming good.

[1964white]

Bornauw up for Motm vote! They must've been listening to CJay.

In my first four MOTM selections.

15 excellent/very good actions.

Oh look we sit back and defend and concede a late goal. There's a surprise.

We always concede when we sit back, even when we have all eleven men in our box.

[1964white]

Big Joel will be the hero!!!!!

[1964white]

Piroe has been terrible

Overrated by many on here!

[1964white]

Longstaff had to be the worse passer of a ball we've had for some time

Seven poor passes.

Lost possession twice.

Only one decent pass.

[1964white]

Is anyone old enough to remember a Leeds keeper saving a penalty, im only 60 so I clearly haven't

Gary Sprake
David Harvey
John Lukic
Nigel Martyn
Paul Robinson
Marco Silvestri
Casper Ankergren
Illan Meslier
Lukas Perri

Have all saved penalties for Leeds.

[1964white]

Ampadu, Aaronson, and DCL in half a game or less.

Indeed John.

It's a good job some of us watch Leeds games with a keen eye!

[Johnthewhite]

Amazing how one man made such a difference.

Ampadu is a special player.

Said it for a long time now
"Ampadu is the glue"

Overrated by many on here!

under-rated by just as many

[1964white]

Got through in the end.

Birmingham the better side really, they must struggle for consistency because if they played like that in the Championship they'd be in the playoffs.

Showed character in the end We did.

Some great moments for a few rather than performances tbf.

Their cup final.

Farke knows the score on this matter.

[Chilli D]

Indeed John.

We all do 64, but opinions differ.

What & whose post referring to?

My ratings post on another part of the site during the game... very strange. It's a post I keep open throughout the game but at HT and other times I will submit it to make sure it doesn't get lost. On the one ocassion it gave me that remark.

Depends how you look at it. Birmingham's goal had a huge slice of luck about it. Also a couple of shocking offside calls that may have cost us goals. DCL's shot that hits their defender but loops to safety could have deflected in instead. I don't recall us having too much luck going our way. Yes they hit the post twice but one was a good save, which is what a keeper is there for.

Similarly in the Chelsea game we were denied the penalty when GG had his shorts blatantly pulled. It stops his momentum and should be a penalty. The guy that Bijol pushes in the box pushed Bijol first, could just as easily been a free kick to us for the first offence. Yes we got a huge slice of luck for our equaliser and Cole Palmer's miss but it could already have been a different story.

Plus when you consider the unlucky own goal v Fulham then I would say things are maybe evening out.

On the other hand he was also the most dispossessed player on the pitch.

I thought he struggled tbh, better than Buonanotte but wasn't more than average himself BA.

Ampadu was very good however.
