Yep wilder completely fucked up tonight, let’s hope it’s few & far between.
 
So very simple.

Wilder wanted the point minimum, went for it, fucked it so massively we've lost. He didn't have the balls to go attacking and he's paid the price.

Any other team I wouldn't give a fuck but he's made our unbeaten run and 6 clean sheets look as though we got them out of blind luck, crumbling as soon as we came up against a team that showed their teeth.

I don't care we've dropped points because there's no danger of picking them back up but what Wilders done here is made us look a laughing stock to the championship right when we were beginning to be considered a giant in the league. He owns this.

Just FYI I'm not a Wilder out but he has to learn from this. Have a spine you fucking mouse.
 
Foxy can we have the player ratings open early, please? I'm itching to give every one of them a 2 and Wilder a 1

Thing is, Leeds have created hardly anything this half at all.

We’ve just totally overthought this as said above and not played our own game at all.

Agree….we played for a 0-0 and looked quite good to get it, altho we’ve been so passive just happy to defend.

See that Peck was involved making mistakes in both their goals. However for their 2nd Peck was having his shirt pulled all the way through the move.
 
We win a free kick, 40 yards from goal with 5 mins to go and don't take the opportunity to put the ball in the box. Instead we pass backwards and sideways into trouble, lose it and they score within 15 secs. Piss poor game management. We are playing shit and we were losing 1 nil. Get the ball into the opponents box. We have 3 players 6ft 4 plus in team
 
First half-decent side we’ve played away from home and he’s shat his pants and reverted to type. Not good enough all night.
 
Aaronson and Piroe shooting boots on could have been 4 or 5.

Think this image is apt for our formation experiment

Tonight for me was the first chance to show we have started righting the wrongs of last year when the lights are bright, seems that certain people at the club certainly have not.
 
Worst management performance in a long time. And the players are lazy as fuck too, 2-0 down and playing it along the back line, 0 shots on target, a replica of the exact same shit we had last season with a completely different team.
 

Wilder bottled that game, can’t blame players this time
 
Well done Anstonblade1.

You predicted we’d lose 0-2. You should have had a bet.
 
Got tactics and line up completely wrong tonight. A few poor performances also , O’Hare was anonymous again, Blaster was poor, Kieffer after first 10 was anonymous also. Burrows weak.
I think that Leeds are the strongest side in the division and even taking into account the negatives, they weren’t really that much better.
Can take a defeat but we looked a shadow of the team that played Luton.
Chris needs to own that tonight for me. We desperately needed Brooks or JRS from the start.

Not shit it just got his tactics wrong, Leeds are the best team in the division & anyone who finishes above them they'll be promoted

We could all see it wasn’t working and he didn’t make any change to the formation. Lump it long to a totally ineffectual Moore? We spent the last 15 minutes passing it laterally until it went back to Cooper who lumped it. It was crying out for a different shape. It’s always been his weakness.

Agree, trying to do something 'clever' but it was the complete opposite. I put this one totally on Wilder - most players were bad (O'Hare especially), but he gave us/the players no chance going forward in the first 60mins and allowed them to gain confidence. He then threw all of our attacking options on at the same time with no way of getting the ball to them as he just left a void in midfield. There was a period he just before 80 mins when we wasted nearly 2 mins passing the ball along our own back line, like we were the ones one up. 3 strikers is the time to boot it to bloody Moore!!!! It was completely one way and then the other - so daft.
 
I dint think he bottled it. It was quite sensible to try and negate the Gnoto threat. The problem was when Farke changed it after 20 mins, we didn't respond with our own changes. This led to Leeds bossing the game and dictating how and where it was played. CW/AK were poor for me, but not with the original set up. Farke got one over us today.
Also, we have beaten teams this year by having better players, Leeds did that to us today. They had probably 9 or 10 of the best players on the park, some of our boys didn't perform. Let's hope for a reaction Vs Boro
 
Wilder you prick! What a cowardice performance… all on Wilder, he set the boys up (who’ve worked so hard for him) to lose and that’s exactly what happened. Not a single shot on target and we looked pathetic!
 
Reminded me of the first championship promotion season, teams would change formation to match or nullify us, and we beat them because we were better at it. We've just done the same at Leeds and same outcome. Why not play our game. #mystified

He actually set them up to stop their usual style if play. It nearly worked, a goal from a set piece and one was a foul for shirt pulling.
It didn't work particularly well but we were'nt as bad as some are saying.
 

Not sure what the gsme plan was but it didn’t include any plans to score. Leeds were there for the taking and we produced a stodgy flat performance.
I hate losing to those over-hyped feckers.
Shit defending for the goals too.
I guess Leeds deserved it. We learn and move on.
