  • What does that game tell us?

    That if we get players in the box then we can score goals, some great movement from Harris and ojo for the goals, but more importantly, we had other players in the same positions, which pulled Leeds out a bit.

    Second half we didn't compete, allowed them possession, or maybe couldn't sustain the discipline and shape of the first half. Probably should have been 4-2 to Leeds.

    First half though, encouraging.

    We completely ran out of puff. Tanner is absolutely miles off it, he needs his time at York. Moving Harris up front didn’t help, he was protecting Sang as well. We did well though, the first half is a good showing. One major plus was Rino, he was good. Great pass. Ojo too, has some confidence. I think with Robinson and Kipre to come back in, there’s definite positives and a way forward

      I would like to see Ojo play number 10 against Wigan.

        Also really didn’t like us going to a back 5. And it was a back 5. I’d have much rather we went to 441, with Sang and Ng on the right

          ...despite some reservations....am more confident going forward IF we can keep up the enthusiasm. For me Davies was a catalyst...a VERY big asset.

            Davies should make a difference and hopefully Maguiness as well.

                Not a lot.

                Most won't be in the 11 v Wigan.

                Weirdly clinical first half, well off the pace 2nd.

                I suppose best bit was that we actually got men forward in the first half. If we were as brave second half and more alert at corners we may have got through.

                  Davies made a massive difference. It was noticeable that when he came off their two centre backs felt much more comfortable.

                  Can't fault the team, it was a very entertaining game. Shame we didn't win it

                    We looked very good until we started bringing the first teamers on!!

                      There appears to be a total inability by some people to recognise that 1) We were playing a Premier League team 2) We had five or six first team players out 3) We played the last 10 minutes with 10 men. I really don't know how anyone can criticise anything about that performance.

                          If Davies stays healthy and we play to his strengths he’s like a new signing for us.

                          Some of our fringe players have a part to play for us the rest of the year… that first half was far better than anything we have played in the last few weeks after a tough first 10 minutes.

                          We are still worryingly shit at defending set pieces.

                            Confirmation that we are perennial bottlers.

                            Thoroughly and completely depressing.

                              They brought on a 30m pound player. Grow up
