Kid in the Riot Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 In complete control. Leeds have been awful, they actually managed to get progressively worse as the half went on... Quote Link to comment
Ivorguy Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 A very competent first half from City Always good one feels when both strikers score Quote Link to comment
cityexile Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 As comfortable a first half as we have had, since, well, our last one. Hopefully LJ tries nothing to clever in the second half. They score a fluke, smash one in from 25 or whatever, and it is a different game. At the moment it really should be three points. Just hoping for a no dramas second half! Quote Link to comment
ChippenhamRed Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Magnússon’s throw certainly proving a good weapon here. I count four goals now this season from his throws: - Two today - Djuric v Palace - Flint v Cardiff Any more? Quote Link to comment
22A Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Four times Jansson has had the ball and each time, rather than find a team mate, has given City either a throw in or corner Quote Link to comment

Sparkz 76 Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Wow that was a fantastic first half and maggers doing well at CB and the throws are creating havoc in the Leeds box 1 Quote Link to comment
Dan Robin Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 (edited) Good performance so far. Leeds did some dirty tackles, but luckily none of our players was injured. Edited February 18, 2018 by Dan Robin Quote Link to comment
Kingswoodactor Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Reminding me of Fulham away. Our defensive/midfield lines that night were superb. Currently making it very difficult for Leeds to find gaps in behind. Everyone knowing their roles superbly today. More of the same next half please boys. The 3rd will come with patience, which is what we’ve showed so far in abundance. COYR! Quote Link to comment
Alessandro Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 HT Smith stand out. Reid excellent and Famara doing well. Kent having his best game, putting in a shift for the team and always an outlet going forward. Leeds very physical, but generally we are matching them. Wouldn't be surprised to see them have someone sent off the way they're lunging in. More goals in this game for us - expect them to throw everything and the kitchen sink at us in the 2nd half, so let's put the game to bed early and get a 3rd. Quote Link to comment
RUSSEL85 Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Very comfortableso far but we were 3 up last week. Think fammy has been very good to, love his hold up play. Quote Link to comment
Br1stolCityBoy Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Looks ok from Lanzarote. Let’s not have another Sunderland ffs. Quote Link to comment
Offside Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Good first half from City. Diedhiou took his goal really well - I thought at first he took too long and the chance was gone but he found a gap and slotted it in. Quality. Good to see Reid getting a goal too. He works hard but shows such skill too. So far so good. Quote Link to comment

JamesBCFC Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 We've played well but not outstanding, Leeds have been dire though. Quote Link to comment
Tipps69 Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Hard to remember a more dominant & self assured first 45 minutes. Even at 3-0 up last week it was hardly like we played that well but this week we’ve had very little to worry about & everything has been very well controlled in my opinion. Quote Link to comment
Loco Rojo Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Pack doing well too. Really good to see the tempo and desire from City to close the Leeds lot down too. Hopefully the second half will be better than last Saturday!!! Quote Link to comment

I agree and the crowd are on their backs and they are quickly losing whatever little discipline that they had. I don’t trust this referee, the important thing now is to not allow the crowd any hope and LJ has to get his substitutions spot on. Great team performance but Pack having a great game and Smith probably the best player on the field. 2 Quote Link to comment

We certainly look more focused today. We've just got to keep it up in the second half and hopefully Heckingbottom won't have regrouped that lot at half time. Quote Link to comment
Northern Red Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 You can see how Leeds have such an appalling disciplinary record. The referee worries me, given some very questionable decisions so far. Quote Link to comment
JBFC II Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Can't see this ending up like Sunderland, we were poor in that first half but took our chances, we've been solid this half and would have at least 3 with a competent referee Now watch us lose 3-2.... Quote Link to comment
RedLionLad Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 More of the same 2nd Half please. Leeds look a shambles and their fans are on our side. Quote Link to comment
robin_unreliant Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Is it just me who is struggling to get excited about that half because of last weekend? Normally I'd be glowing but I just feel wary of what might happen next. 1 Quote Link to comment

Time for Lee to show he has learned from his mistakes and make the right subs, especially if we are under the cosh, but not the most defensive of benches though... Expect we'll see Walsh and maybe Pato. Quote Link to comment
cidercity1987 Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Could have been more if Hooper (who is usually quite good) didn' give them a foul every time we breathed in their box. Just sling every throw and corner to Wiedwald, top tactics. Quote Link to comment
Major Isewater Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 We can now see what the coaches have been working on last week on the subject of game management. Quote Link to comment
