Yeah but the reality is we paid for quantity rather than quality.
And some of that quantity wasn't cheap either.
Yeah but the reality is we paid for quantity rather than quality.Because the reality is that you really need to pay Haji Wright fees at least to get players of that quality
You seem to be forgetting the total team performance in the first half. Hard for a striker to look impressive given they barely get the ball. Personally i think he did very well but clearly you dont.I honestly think his horrendous first half is making his slightly improved second half appear a lot better than it was. The way some people are going on is as if he had a storming solo striker performance against a very good team. He did a couple of good things, but was generally a very easy player to play against for the Leeds defenders for the most part.
Dan James had a massive chance that was saved, yes. That was it other than the goals and at that point we were already 2-0 down and chasing the game. They were constantly a threat but we’d limited them to long range chances.
The sloppiness of the goals we conceded was really disappointing and made a difficult game almost insurmountable.
Just watched it back - that’s not what happened. This is where Latibeaudiere stops his run. Dovin could and should have claimed the ball at this point but didn’t. He had a great game in the second half but this was a huge cock-up on his part.

Lol I really must improve my comprehension,read that as nearly won us a goal kick.🫣Dovin is class but got caught out for the second goal. Grimes hit a superb corner which nearly got us a goal back. If he can consistently take corners like that, we have a new string to our bow
It’s clearly a horror moment for Dovin - these things occasionally happen I guess. Lati in his attempt to shield the advancing player was pretty pathetic as well - especially as he then walked past him to score
I'm really looking forward to both returningIn a game where it is necessary for the front players to hold the ball up to get some relief from all the Leeds possession in the first half both of ours failed miserably. Simms was better in the second half . I think that EMC & Wright will add a hell of a lot more.
The main problem was Dovin’s Achilles heel of not communicating with his defence.It looks as if Dovin thinks Lati was going to clear it.
Fundamentally someone needs to call for it. Lati running in like that was honestly mindless though. Bogle wasn't even going to get to the ball.

It will be like having 2 new signings. They add so much to the team . Hopefully ball retention will improve significantly.I'm really looking forward to both returning
Asantes touch is non existantSaid the same on Simms and BTA. You would think it is such an easy part of their game to improve. Simms touch generally is absolutely woeful.
That's why Rodon was constantly on to the ref saying that Simms was fouĺing him all the time. Rodon was fed up with himI honestly think his horrendous first half is making his slightly improved second half appear a lot better than it was.
