Well today did turn out how I hoped!

My honest opinion from what I watched, we looked slow at times in the first half, Coventry 's first goal had a slice of luck but mainly bad defending and Mes was poor.

Bamford should be taken out of the starting line up and used as sub for the remainder of the season.
We looked like we trying to walk the ball into the net at time.

Gruev didn't look fit, midfield struggled first half.
Rutters fancy flicks and turns too much at times, needs to play the simple ball now and then.

Rodon caught out for the second goal left the player unmarked, maybe Rodons injury is holding him back abit.

Once Coventry scored the second goal they were happy to drop deeper back and try to catch us on the break.

We could have easily snatched a point, they defended like it was a cup final.

Disappointed with the experience but Coventry are no mugs, the had their highest attendance today. The fans are getting behind them for their cup run. I just hope the show the same fighting spirit against ipswich.

Mezz We are chronically guilty of overplaying and lacking in sufficient variation. Nothing wrong with route one football when it's necessary.

Mixing it up with route one football has been very effective for Leeds this season . plenty of goals for Leeds have come from it.

Good post Mezzer. I hope they are up for it against Ipswich like they were today. Last game against Cardiff at home they weren't. Leeds have to cope with this sort of thing as everybody wants to beat us and see us suffer. We had players who just weren't at their best today. I do agree about Bamford, a stint on the bench might be best for him as he is way off it at the moment.
