Where is his rigidity then? He changes the formation alot... 442 diamond, 442, 352 and so on. In doing so he changes the personnel so that comment is way off.

Like London Bristolian says the problem isn't that, its that LJ doesn't know his best starting XI it seems

It was clear from the moment Tomlin came on that they did know or understand the formation.  Korey looked bewildered.

Are we watching the same game?

What a terribly disappointing first half. Little not making any runs.  God knows where Patterson is supposed to be playing.  First goal I'll except, but the second was poor.  No fight in city tonight.  We're handing it to them on a plate.

To all those with their head up their asses!! Today proves the point how average or below average we are as a team!! Out played, out muscled, out skilled and the list could go on!! 

So it's not all bad then?

I don't post often. But all I hear is people blaming the manager, when one of your experienced players, who was brought in to help the less adapt for this league, commits arguably 3 bookable offences in 46 minutes. I feel we were the better team up until that point. So in my opinion baker changed the game.

I don't post often either, but something has got to change. The summer signing policy has left us in this situation. Losing against rubbish opposition.  Again 

I'm not sure I entirely agree with this. I don't think we dominated at all. It was clear where we're lacking players. A central defender and someone that can hold the ball up in midfield are 2 must positions for me. It was an extremely satisfying point tonight and some players really stood up to the mark, but it looks like they are playing in a formation they aren't entirely comfortable with yet. I hope the manner in which we drew the game will kick start the season and the belief that the players need.

Dominated the first half without really testing their keeper. Only chances we conceded were of our own making.

Overall performance was worthy of three points and it's not because of Leeds ability that we didn't get them. If we can cut out the silly defensive errors we can stop giving ourselves a mountain to climb.

Very much could and should have been all three points. On to Saturday now, a big test. Boro will be considerably more of a threat going forwards than Leeds were.
