Limbrick got it totally wrong tonight,

Davis on the right and Hewitt in the middle - while Clifton/Whitehouse are on the bench. With Hendrie injured Hewitt had to play right back if anywhere his awful in midfield.

Cardwell on? Should of moved cook up and brought clifton or whitehouse earlier (or just played with 10 men cos cardwell is that bad.

Am guessing Ogbu is injured and with us only naming 6 subs but Hanson around the bench must of picked up a injury.

Either way I expected a reaction and I think that’s probably the worse performance of the season.

Oh and Vernam needs to come back.

We’re in trouble.

It's not the tactics. It's the lack of mentality and effort by the players. As the game went on instead of trying harder they got more half-hearted. Underhit passes, hospital passes, not winning 50:50 balls, poor control.

I've seen plenty of players played out of position, but if they approach it with the right mentality it's not too bad.

I managed to get it on just after kick off and watched until full time and i couldn't tell you..
A. What formation we were playing
B. Who was playing where? (4-5 players i still cant work out where they was playing)

Sincee full time I've seen we set up 352.. Who was upfront? Who was the 3 central midfielders? Genuinely couldn't tell you. Was Rose ment to be left wing back? Cook upfront or cam? I genuinely don't know.

Cardwell has been crap since his been here even when the team has been playing well.

Hewitt has been crap in midfield since his been here even when the team is playing well.

If that's the case then it has nothing to do with formation or tactics.

I think we have a set of players who’s band with has been maxed out by things being too complicated, “continental”, technical, clever and structured.

Too many A licences and not enough licence to just go out and effing play football

Had a rant probably.



When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Well if you haven’t won in 8 games and look like a relegation team  with no clue or hope am guessing it is the tactics and formation

Why oh why are they making playing football look so difficult?!?

It’s a simple game!!!

And we have players who can fit and play well in certain positions but oh let’s play them in random positions and a formation that makes no sense!!!

What really is so wrong with the basics?!?!?

FOUR

FOUR

TWO

Play Hess and either Whitehouse or Clifton in the middle

So infuriating it’s ridiculous
