FT: CARDIFF CITY 0 - 3 LEEDS UNITED. Match thread

[D. Advocaat]

Unfortunately we’ve given them 2 goals from mistakes

They've battered us from start to finish and should be 3 or 4 up, mistakes or otherwise.

[B. Oddie]

'Kinell. If I were Alnwick, I'd feel very aggrieved with the current situation. Dropped for no apparent reason then brought back into a team that can't defend.

...I'd make that 5 or 6....

[bluebirds17]

Siopis has been shocking

[Bobby Dandruff]

We are simply being outplayed.

It could easily be 4 or 5 by now :-/

[Bobby Dandruff]

if that was ladies football we'd be pissing ourselves at that defending, but its not

Agreed.

[Joe Gillis]

Etete, what does he do?

[Maurice Swan]

It's like a trainign session for Leeds...they are just toying with us......if not for Alnwick we would be even deeper in the shit....

[Maurice Swan]

Siopis has been shocking

They all have apart from Alnwick...

[bluesp]

The gulf in class against a relegated team is so obvious, we played them at the right time at the start of the season - before they finalised their squad, etc.

[Bobby Dandruff]

Etete, what does he do?

Well he hasn’t had much of a chance today, but I agree.

I don’t think that he is up to Championship level as discussed in other posts. He is so easy to defend against, and constantly dispossessed. Just so frustrating.

[LA Bluebird]

No Tanner or Colwill in the starting XI. Bulut is playing for a damage limitation line-up by the looks of things

That went well then. Learned nothing from previous games against superior teams if he thinks this midfield has any chance of keeping the score down.

[Dorcus]

Agree, and missed the player approaching goal

[SweetFA]

Bulut knows some of his players are not up to it. If replacements cannot be brought in then maybe younger players should be given a chance. There is a lethargy in the team with poor passing and not enough running off the ball to accept a FORWARD pass. Look at throwins, no players seem to have the intelligence to try and make some space.

We aren't compact enough behind the ball.

[MacAdder]

Thank feck for Alnwick!
Dire so far.

[Bobby Dandruff]

Wintle is no number 10 as we have seen before this season.

And that was a clear penalty for Goutas’ shove in Bamford’s back.

[Dorcus]

We are being dominated by Leeds even more than Leicester outplayed us.

[LA Bluebird]

We aren't compact enough behind the ball.

Maybe 4 defensive midfielders will do the trick

And we are so predictable: it must be so easy for teams to figure us out.

Ref only didn't give it cause he knew it should have been foul on Goutas just before. Really lucky.

[Bobby Dandruff]

Well that was embarrassing.

Why am I relieved that it is only 2-0?!

[bluebirds17]

Etete, what does he do?

**** all. I've never seen such a big bloke get bullied so much.

I've always given him the benefit of the doubt but I just don't think he's cut out for this level until he figures out how to be aggressive.

[Eric the Half a Bee]

The gulf in class against a relegated team is so obvious, we played them at the right time at the start of the season - before they finalised their squad, etc.

But we've also got worse since then.

[Joe Gillis]

i think we can all accept getting beat by a superior team but when we do get possession our decision making is abysmal, our passing atrocious, the captain's armband has now been passed to Ryan Wintle from Joe Ralls, says it all really
