Fecking fuming

Tonight showed exactly why we had to sign two quality players.

Lack of pace and creativity killed us.

Too many players playing half fit, and it’s catching up with us.

The pigeons are coming home to roost indeed. The lack of effort on the window was highlighted tonight. To say that was 1st vs 2nd was shocking.

One Out of contract player available includes Joe Ledley which I think Leeds should consider now especially if Hernandez is injured. I think we were a bit unlucky though and the scoreline flattered Norwich but we lost and need to play better next week. Much for Bielsa to ponder and team selection I suspect will include Philips from the start.

1st half flattered Norwich, 2nd half was all them.

Norwich fully deserved the win.

We were dreadful. Couldn't beat their press and get out our half, their wingers were fantastic too.

The free-kick killed the game though, worst timing and worst position to give it away. We didn't make them work for their goals, just poor mistakes from us and then we had no answer to it.

We weren't at the races today and lost fare and square but we should have gone in only one goal behind at half time and that may have made a difference to the second half approach but without Hernandez it was doubtful and so that's why I thought we were a bit unlucky but that's football and it was Norwich's day. I think Bielsa needs to drop Foreshaw and Ayling and stick with Alioski at left back and include Brown on the bench now he is fit cus 15 minutes as a Sub could be vital.

Forshaw has to be dropped. He has been rubbish since start of December.Alioski has been ineffective. For me though, Harrison has to be dropped, he can't put a decent ball in to save his life.

Issue is, who else do we have in reserve to solve this? We're clutching at straws. I really hope we can improve but have this awful feeling that we are going to finish 7th.

I was convinced that Hernandez being subbed was due to his injury...but surprised when I came home to hear Bielsa say sub was tactical, with Bielsa trying to make more use of the flanks..... really!

Ayling is a fekin liability going forward

Jansson set the whole thing off with his stupidity of the free kick

Forshaw offers little.

Klich’s second half was awful

I was amongst the many that left after the third went in. We got what we deserved today - a lesson on how to play away from home

I just don't understand why AR and his pals in America didn't see we needed fresh new players and invested in not gambled on 2 or 3 more quality players that if it did go pear shaped they could have got their money back.

Wolves did this with their recruitment and we could have surely got players similar despite the James fiasco which if we had just paid up front straight away instead of faffing about we would have at least had some extra pace and creativity.

If we do collapse AR will definitely be to blame and I doubt he will be able to survive the wrath of Leeds fans.

Let's just hope our worst fears are not going to come true and Bielsa can sort us out and a win next Saturday will suddenly see optimism return to our hearts.
