Positives- 1st 30 minutes, good shape, intent and put City under pressure.

Negatives-Seemed to blow ourselves out after that, never regained the momentum really.

P. In the game until the goal and kept them at 0-1 which gave us a slim chance of getting something but wasn’t to be.

N. Not much really, we did the best we could with what we have and also the officials were a bit too City biased.

Positive - We played a top side and gave a good account of ourselves, we created chances, kept our shape but City are well estabilished
and have strength in depth. A draw would have been a fair result.
Negative - We failed to put away our chances and it just can't happen at this level. The player that gave us something going forward was
Aaronson and he was subbed. Our best defender was on the bench until later end of the game, god knows why.... Our
midfield was well below par, Ampadu had an absolute shocker of a game....

Positive: Disappointed to get nothing, with the chances we created, I think we could've got something.

Negative: We didn't start pumping balls into the box until the last ten mins, but we clearly had them rattled at that point. We wasted 30 mins in the second half doing nothing, when we may have got something using this tactic.

Pos - Widened our goal difference over Wet Spam
A decent performance deserving of a point against a cheating, diving, time wasting bunch of overpaid prima donnas.

Neg - Losing against cheating, diving, time wasting overpaid prima donnas.

+ Played well against a set of world class cheating tw*ts.

- Didn't get a well deserved point. Also the game being stopped for City players breaking their Ramadan fast.

+ A good first 30 mins threatening to take the lead against a top PL winning side.

- Missed early opportunities proved costly and DCL will be reliving that missed early chance tonight. If he scores he'd be a serious contender for an England call up.

P: A fighting performance against one of the top sides in Europe and well o in the game for the first 30 minutes or so. Could still have got a deserved point had things gone our way.

N: Letting in another goal in added time. Did you see that the two minutes added time were to make up for time lost as a result of the Ramadin farce and they scored with the last kick of those two minutes ? Also a clear handball for a penalty which was ignored by the referee and VAR - had it been at the other end of the pitch I don't doubt that Bankes would have pointed straight to the spot.

Positive: we played with energy and contained one of the top league contenders to only one goal.

Negative: The new pejorative is the word BLOW it describe a team with low aspirations and energy... I had to turn the commentary off because it was so biased during the game, and even on the match thread the usual obnoxious effluvium was being BLOWN from the arses of the usual suspects.

P: i predicted 1 point against Villa and City at home so we obtained this. i believe we we will get 7 points from our next 3 games. No injuries in this match. We played with heart
N: We had our chances in the first 30 mins but did not take these
Leeds need a great summer 2026 with outgoings and incoming players

Positive: We have improved our goal difference by +2, compared to West Ham. Our GD must now be worth a extra point.
Negative: Pity we couldn't go in at half time all square. Reminds me of the Villa and Newcastle games...

Neg. A few nightly possible injuries
The ref was very unbalanced.

Jim... It's not a BLOW- OFF as we know it, more likely just hot air.
