Stick with Lasogga . play the right formation around him. He will score goals. best bet for us to have a late run for the playoffs. just hang in there over the next few games MOT

21 Jan 2018 20:20:26
agree can only comment on what i saw but he was class. pulled us forward was a leader, demanded the ball and scored. his record for that was not that bad. I think build the team around him

22 Jan 2018 07:41:13
He was like that on his debut Against burton, millwall and burton are 2 of the worst teams in the league, his attitude has been poor at times, but seemed better at the wk end for some reason. Phillips gets a lot of stick and rightly so, but if viera has a bad game it seems to go under the radar. he was awful on Saturday, couldn't pass the ball 5 yds, and was rightly taken off . taking all the front men off at the end was a woeful decision that cost us, we had no outlet and just invited pressure on, shaunnessy was the wrong sub for me, he got caught wrong side then flat footed if you watch the goals back. great effort by the 10 in the 2nd half, but realistically I think 10th is about where we are as a team now, not over achieving or under achieving. season over? . jury is out on that one

good point about veira think he is given more slack as young and is in and out phillips is just not good enough, think forshaw might be answer to our midfield woes. TC made a few calls that for me would be worthy of instant sacking, he clearly has no idea of the game. literally none. I expect Wall to be bit more phyiscal but they outplayed us. the whole game we backed off and backed off, the only time we didn't back off we scored three and they scored none. phillips marking morrsion on all corners and set plays is gross negligency or utter stupidty and lead to a mannor or problems playing out from back costs us, defence with no clue subs cost us the game, attitude is too incosistant as is disipline and most importantly TC is not getting best from players, we are spending money and have a play off squad. two maybe three of wall's players would make our team yet they took 6 points off us, draw with a poor forest another example. same with most squads really. we have great team who can be amazing yet are often under performing clowns that lies with manager. niel harris wouldn't stand for it, i'd love us to sign him not any players. i didn't like tc but saturday left me in no doubt i literally could do better, for a start i'd put pontus on morrison at corners that would of stopped half the problem

22 Jan 2018 09:31:26
Vieira shouldn't really have been playing as he is only just back from injury but as we are short in that department he was brought back early - that is probably what showed on Sat.

22 Jan 2018 10:27:42
Again, that's a poor call from the manager then.

22 Jan 2018 10:54:59
A draw with a poor Forest . who just happened to beat Wolves away on Saturday ! !

22 Jan 2018 13:03:10
true Alf and LEEEEEDS, I think he looked off pace and was awful however I do think he is class so maybe was one game to early espcially considering wall like a battle maybe suahugnasy would of been a better call?

22 Jan 2018 13:41:50
Viera still looked "slightly injured" to me and was thrown back into team by TC. Lassoga can finish given the supply but works better with a partner, which he got with Roofe after the sending off of Cooper. Disappointed in Roofe wanting to go off because he was tired. Not a fan of the likes of Neil Warnock but I could imagine his reaction if a player told him he wanted to be withdrawn due fatigue given we only had ten men and no strikers on the bench. I suggest Foxtrot Oscar Kemar would have been uttered

22 Jan 2018 14:04:36
Lasogga has looked good in only a few games this season. He could be a decent striker if he had half a mind to. Watched him several times this season when he looked, disinterested, slow and lazy. His time in Germany has shown the same pattern. For what we are paying him and what he has added to the team this season our money could be better spent looking closer to home in this country.

done my love to all post so now to the game. (I'm about to rant if anyone wants to skip post) what a joke, wall fans all said they knew they were going to win because leeds are soft touch, my mate won 100 leeds to lead millwall to win, said it was obvious bet because leeds are soft. wall fans also said our players played better than any team they have seen and are good players but manager must be sacked. all who i know said it was 'obvious TC must be sacked and is not getting best from team'. I agree game management- wall are pysical, morrsion best for them in the air so who marks him on corners. phillps, muggy call idiot team management who made they call (sack the manager) . Lossgaer our main threat, was our target man, when a goal up but man down he must stay on the pitch, he could help defend set plays, be a target man with men behind ball and hold up play. when we took him off my mate said thank god for that we will get the draw now, he was correct disipline. i think it was a red, no intent but was a red, three red cards in three games not good enough, difference between joke of first half to hero half hour second shows team is not giving all which again i think lies with manager morrision played like a god, either he is a good footballer or we let him play, i think we know he ain't a god so why not have a game plan for him? millwall are not good, they have not won away, only two of there players would make our team there keeper archer and there cb webster. so if only two of there players are better why have they took 6 points off us (only team they have done that too this year) because Niel Harris is a great manager who is doing a good job and TC has no idea about tactics or game management. i still rate our players but pray to god we finally get a manager to get best from team, i really feel let down by manager and team yesterday and since yesterday have had 40 missed calls and voice mail messages and over 100 texts, whatsapp and FB messages from wall fans who are now making my life hell, please let me see leeds win before I am old and senile so that's my views from game but still win lose or draw we are all leeds and all love leeds and wouldn't have it any other way

Agree BW taking off PML was a massive cock up, cost us 3 points, Millwall could'nt cope with him, in the 2nd half. I've been backing TC till now, got them going at half time and then threw it away.

21 Jan 2018 20:03:16
PML was injured so had to come off to prevent making it worse. Especially seeing as though we have a lack of strikers at the mo

21 Jan 2018 20:21:51
fair enough if injured but he didn't seem it. keep him on for threat and mental value. taking him off lifted wall fans and players like a mental blow, both wall fans next to me were so happy the moment he went off and that says it all

21 Jan 2018 14:55:20
Just seen a report that we are interested in Ashley Fletcher. Why? he's garbage. But then that's why Victor likes him presumably. Orta out!

All these players have previous links with Orta, who has never played the game. I'd like to know who all these 'ones for the future' signings, ex-Boro and 'buy to let' players agents are!

21 Jan 2018 11:34:50
Morning all. Just been reading some match reports for the team's above and around us and looking at the table and I am increasingly sharing the view of those of you on here who think that we are a mid table team. Orta and TC are really going to have to earn their pay to sort out our mediocrity. Not overly inspired by some of the players we are linked with, as i cannot see them adding points to the team. Also, thank God a match only lasts 90mins. If they went on much longer, we would end up with a five a side team out there, with our rate of sending offs. My baseless optimism has abandoned me today.

21 Jan 2018 14:04:19
Angus Kinnear has come out and said the club (by that I believe the decision makers) feel the team is good enough to win promotion. They must see something most of us cant, deluded, springs to mind. i'd take his bet!

21 Jan 2018 15:23:32
Mezzanine They just didn't continue their honesty and accuracy by saying "from League One".

21 Jan 2018 15:42:12
If that’s what they believe then they must realize that the manager is not good enough because something ain’t working

21 Jan 2018 17:16:30
Think what they mean is there's not much between 10 or more teams in this league Wolves apart ( and I reckon Derby will catch them) everyone has beaten everyone else and had bad runs Play offs we are aiming for and everyone knows the team that sneaks in to 6th place usually wins that All part of the cunning plan Course, it'll probably be Boro or Fulham doing that Takes 3 transfer windows to build a side We've not yet had 2 with the current regime Keep the faith

Going to sunny Spain for preparation against Hull. Each time I've been to East Riding in late January I've always remarked about the heatwave they have. #cluelesssabotagingtactics #nowonderwegetredcards #topcatbeststayoutofmyway
