Thats correct...the one player we've all been calling for comes on and rescues a point. He's a goalscorer unlike the knobhead who our blinkered manager keeps playing. !

Stunning through ball tonight and should have had three assists on Saturday where there was another class through ball, you also get Alioski cover ...Harrison my MOTM from what I saw tonight..Not his fault he's supplying a player that's out of form and confidence at best

Nketiah starts or comes on at HT, we win that comfortably. So no I won't pretend it's a good point, when Preston score with their first attack.

We'd have missed it anyway, so no point dwelling on it.

not a fan of harrison but thought he had a good match tonight (not man of the match imo though - should have scored himself and his final ball still needs some work)

We're not throwing points away every game, I'm happy with a point away at another top 6 club, not happy with Bamford, since West Brom he's been very poor but we're a Championship club in second place, we're not Barcelona.

Thought Alioski was terrible today (sorry CJay). Just want more goals from our wingers. Yes Costa was crap too. He didn't do anything until injury time.

Lets not forget, Bielsa has come in and turned round an average group of players into a talented looking bunch, but he is now struggling to see the obvious.....such predictability will be punished !

He has shown a bit of improvement but he would need to keep it up going forward. He has been very wasteful and does tend to cut inside and cross instead of turning the defenders.

Sadly we do not seem to have any other options on the left and he probably knows it too.

Hasn't scored in 8 games Bambi and the last time he did he looked at the Leeds away supporters with his finger over his lips saying shsshh with a half metre tap in.
No wonder Boro fans thanked us when we bought him off them.

I didn't say we were. It's another game we dominate miss chance after chance and the opposition score with the first chance and we end up supposed to be happy with a point. No wonder we'll never go up with attitude, we're supposed to happy we constantly throw away points.

Derby 1 shot
Forest 1 shot
Charlton 1 shot
Swansea 1 shot
Preston 1 shot

We've dropped points in all those games. The only game we deserved to lose was Millwall.

Somebody mentioned it earlier, we have x number of chances / half chances and can't score but they get one chance !!!! I don't get paid thousands of pounds a week to provide the answer to that one.....but somethings wrong !!

He's got pretty good stats for take-ons

If Bielsa is unwilling / unable to rotate teams and change tactics, I'm really sorry, but he should go!

Not quite sure what that means YS?

That he beats his man?

I don't think you'd be happy unless we won every game at least 3-0.

Baggies draw at home with Barnsley, 12 shots only 3 on target, useless bunch of tw@ts

Yeah, he's beating his man much more this season and is quite high up the league in terms of that stat.

It's weird. I don't want him to go or get sacked, but at the same time his stubbornness is costing us and we all know it will be the same team lining up on Saturday.
