I thought he had a great game today, a real handful up front all game took his penalty well.
The chance second half he was stretching and it wasn’t the greatest pass.
Always gives 100% and a real fan’s favourite.

You feeling alright Yoda mate?


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

Incase any negative points about him come up, we need to remember PH has Taylor as his no1 striker and has tried to bring another in.

I like LJL providing he has the right people around him and tactics when he is playing. By the sound of the radio we have that. UTM 4 points clear.

Well, if he scores in every game he starts, which he has done this season, then I'll be more than happy.

Whilst the penalty and the miss were the two standout moments, I think it’s generous to say he had a good game. The ball bounced off him plenty of times, and he rarely managed to link up with anyone else. I thought it was a poor performance in truth.

He’s never gonna finish so much as a dinner but he does bring plenty to the side…

To be honest, the miss was a shocker, regardless of how good or bad the ball was…that said, Mcatee should not be squaring that ball…

It’s been said by the fans of most teams Lenny has played for that his first touch is so bad that his second touch is usually a 50/50 challenge.

He’s different, in the same way as Akinfenwa is different. Possible that several have to adapt to not having Taylor there. As has been said, he’s two in two and I couldn’t care less if that continues.

That's nonsense. His link up play was pretty good today and he was involved in most of our better attacking play. He's always missed good chances and will continue to do so but he's still a useful backup for Taylor.

He gives his all and the ball sticks well usually. Hold the ball up and brings others into play. He's probably past his best, doesn't seem to pull away from players like his first spell, looks on the heavy side though I don't doubt it's muscle. I don't rate him as a finisher, which is his primary job. I'd like to see another centre forward brought in as I just don't think he's good enough for a championship challenging side at this level. See him as backup.
