I actually thought we looked pretty comfortable for most of the game up until their third goal. It was only a poor performance from Messlier that kept them in it.
It proved that the only way to really beat us is to sit back and hope to catch us on the counter. If you try to go toe to toe, you'll get picked off.

Thats Leicester up then

Yep, i'm ok with that result. Southampton now have nothing to play for against us and will have confidence knocked with that shocking performance including the bad defeat at Cardiff. They also will have a major eye on keeping players fit for the playoffs. Straight shootout between us and Ipswich now, all we can do is win our games, put max pressure on and hope they drop points at Hull or Coventry, as with our superior goal difference it would then put it in our hands.

Finally back on here after the usual HTTP error not letting me on.
I too thought we looked comfortable especially going 1 down and fighting back.
Meslier does worry me and Firpo goes walkabouts in defence leaving Ampadu to cover him.
We do lack some pace at FB but good going forward.
Bamford had one of his better games despite not putting one away when he only had the keeper to beat.
Bad news wrt James as he would be ideal coming on late against Southampton and doubt he`s going to be fit.
Rutter again sloppy but made up for it.
Personally thought Rodon was MoM.
Surely Ipswich`s luck must run out soon.

just said the same to my lad.
win friday and the pressure is huge on Ipswich.

just bloody win

Thought Firpo was superb to be fair. Best game in a Leeds shirt

Fixtures seem to favour Ipswich with Hull playing Coventry tonight before playing Ipswich Saturday.
Then they play Coventry the following Tuesday who could be suffering a hangover from their unlucky defeat to MU and by then have nothing to play for.

Thought he was good in attack but wasn`t around for their first goal as highlighted by the pundits on Sky and I think he was slow to cover on their second goal or did I dream that?
Age related memory issues I`m afraid mate.

usual firpo.
supurb going forwards.
liability in defence

Put a few really good clearances in during the second half including a great header at the end. I watched it back again yesterday. First half was a bit patchy.

he did yes. but he ball watches. he is very poor at the basicsof defending

Hull might raise their game against Ipswich with the win tonight.
Think Ipswich will beat Coventry so our game against QPR and theirs against Hull could well decide automatic promotion.

Given Firpo seems to be pretty good at getting the ball accurately into the penalty area why do they not use him more for free kicks or would Sommerville throw his rattle out of the cot? He should be taking free kicks or corners he is terrible.

A win against QPR puts huge pressure on Ipswich tho, 3 games in a week for them, where to get promoted they potentially need 3 wins.

win tomorrow, hull beat ipswich I can't see them winning at coventry either

we just need to win and apply pressure.
