Skill to one side, if we were just showing some of the fight of the teams near the bottom right now...

Agreed, tried to make something happen. Late on, good cross in the box and not a bugger there.

Just passionless, boring crap. Worse, LM does not seem to have a clue what to do about it.

Boos at final whistle.

Bit of pressure late on, but all feels too late. Nothing really in the match, score no goals, conceed a soft one and here we are.

0% against QPR, Wed, Cardiff also are appalling.

Dang, offside

We are so easy to defend against. Their subs have also made a difference.

We tried exactly what did not work in the past again, and it is not working. Who would have thought it. Nothing in the match really, but we are always giving away a soft goal and do not look like creating anything. We do need a few more points. Cannot completely fall off a cliff.

First Cardiff corner. Goal. Cannot score, cannot keep a clean sheet. Not great is it.

Pass around at the back slowly until we give it away, leading to a dangerous free kick. Luckily nothing came of it, but summed us up so far.

Deserves a 0-0. Both sides poor when they have half a chance, wet surface, poor atmosphere for Cardiff. Good 10 minute spell early on but nothing since then really. One of those we have got used to conceding in then creating nothing.

Have to say, looked the class player on the pitch tonight.

It might be unfair, but reminds me of a young MBA who arrives at a workplace with lots of new ideas but fails to take anyone with them. Not to say new ideas cannot be good, of course they can, but success comes down as much as anything to man management. I can imagine looking at my Premier league winners medal, going in to work and being told, right, what you really need to do is this... The ‘sale’ behind LM was really an evolutionary one, basically it’s a decent squad that needs fine tuning to push on to the next level. It’s now changed to not his players, cannot do what he wants them to do, may as well chuck in ‘needs three windows’.

Losing, deservedly so, to two teams in the relegation zone on the bounce is not...great. No real signs of improvement, the whole is less than the sum of its parts again. Score flattered us.

Much more of this and I will be on the grass...

Ugbo a real live wire. Making himself chances and looks the difference between the sides.

In fairness, started the half ok. They are a bit?

We at least used to know how to defend properly...

Knight. 1-1.

Loan player for them, just saying. Our defence not great there.

Got to love the Championship!

Should be out of it by rights, but Leeds somehow find themselves ahead. Bad decisions from the officials and bad finishing costing Leicester.

I get the anyone can beat anyone posts that get made now and again, but this is now a ‘thing’, and it’s not going away. LMs record against the bottom half is now something like W0, D3, L6. That is well beyond the normal swings and roundabouts in the Championship and symptomatic of a real issue. It was not new today, nor was the way they played in any way unexpected. We tried what had failed to work in previous matches and looked bereft of ideas when it failed to work this time. Its been enough matches like this now to, well, try something different!

Might need to be integrated etc, but have to say today he looked all at sea.
