Better second half for sure.
Usual suspects Harrison, Firpo and Rodrigo apart from 1 good pass each all game were dreadful.
Raphina, Klich and Phillips better second half and great bit of play by Joffy to create the goal.

Clinging on by our finger nails. We needed 3 points today, so results have to go out way

I think that point could do. Burnley have Villa and Newcastle. Can imagine players on both those teams need to cement a place for next year with them having new managers. And I think Burnley have had their upturn in form.

I still think we are in the brown stuff….on recent form I reckon both Burnley and Everton will get more points out of their 2 games than we will get in our one.

Everton copped a couple of suspensions and maybe an injury to Calvert Lewin.
What class Erikson is for Brentford.
To think I was laughed at when I said we should have signed him in January.
Pontus also very good and another good decision by Bielsa to get rid.

Agree. Burnley have had their run. Was never going to continue. Hopefully that’s a big boost for the players today. They’re lacking in quality but not in spirit and work ethic. We’ve at least now taken it to the last game

Best I’ve seen Klich for ages. Firpo has to go if we stay up. Absolutely awful awful player. Marsch must not believe his eyes why we signed him… terrible

Also thought it was out of order by some of the Leeds fans to start chanting Bielsa`s name and sack the Board.
Really not what you want when you are trying to get behind the team.
Maybe regardless of us staying up or going down once the season is over. The Board might be wise to let the fans know how many players Bielsa was offered and turned down and how he was too stubborn to change the way we played.
If that was in fact what happened.

Totally agree. It was absolutely ridiculous. Like you say that sort of stuff leave for when it’s over. Doesn’t help anyone.

Don’t get me wrong the board deserves some flak they’re ultimately responsible but that was not the time

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Thu May 19, 2022 8:58 pm  

Bad set of results tonight. Can't understand how Everton kept pulling the results out.

Us and Burnley now. An absolutely must win on Sunday

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Thu May 19, 2022 9:27 pm  

Some good saves by Pickford and shows what a good goalkeeper brings to a team.
I did say Everton would get 10 points from last month which they have with a game to go, Burnley 7 Leeds 4 meaning we go down on GD.
Fingers crossed we get the win and Burnley don`t on Sunday.
