Swede Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Overall I was really pleased with the team set up, formation and performance. We got a reaction to Wednesday nigh's debacle and it's no coincidence that the inclusion of Smith and O'Neil gave more bite and stability to the team. Giefer: 8: Coped well with the pressure and some lovely time wasting. Vyner: 7: Singled out with the long diagonal and did well under pressure and will only get better. Bryan:7: looked lively going forward. Wright:8: Solid and dependable. Made some great tackles. Flint:8: An absolute rock against a very physical Mitotic. Cotterell:8: Lively and tricky but also clever when relieving pressure. Took his goal well and was really unlucky with the free kick. O'Neil:7: Clever play when needed. Used all of his experience in calming things down. Reid:7: Mobile & got forward when he could. Really pleased that he stuck to the game plan. Unlucky cutting back inside for his chance. Smith:8: Just like the old Smith. Faded a little due to fitness but on his day a top midfield player for us. O'Dowda:7: Great energy just a shame he lost control a couple of times when well placed for a third. Wilbrahimovic:9: Just immense. Lead the line really well. He caused their defence so many problems. He faded a bit second half. Typical Wilbs goal. If only he was ten years younger. And finally Johnson:8: He stepped up to the plate for me and you could see his input with his tactics and team selection and could have pulled off a seemingly unlikely victory with a bit more luck. Genuinely very pleased for him. His team selection for Tuesday will be interesting as I hope he has a fit Smith & O'Neil available but not sure about Wilbs. Overall very pleased. The trick now is to build on this performance and get a victory on Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TV Tom Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 I was very critical of today's selection but more than glad to be proved wrong, maybe the tried and tested Wilbs and Smith will get us out of this mess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It most certainly wasn't for footballing reasons. Very good right back and unbelievably popular within the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Vyner was always going to play Is Little injured? Why was Hegeler dropped? Not good enough? Just Lee's tinkering? Or was this, as i suspect, JP's team selection?

Up The City! Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 Giefer my MOTM, didn't see their first goal tho but on the whole an inspired performance. 8s all round to all of them from me with one or two getting a 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do Leeds have 2 Aylings ? Couple of decent runs but his lack of composure put his team under pressure defensively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O'Garlandinho Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 Very harsh on Vyner IMO, thought he had a good game and his last ditch tackle on Mitrovic was superb and probably stopped a goal there. Bobby reid went missing a lot of the game for me, and he's also now the last person i'd ask for the ball to land to in front of goal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
