its not a war, he needs game time, he is rusty, the pass he put through to Wilf was a pass no yher plater could have played, open your eyes

As 0:0’s go I thought that was entertaining especially as we were the better team. Just seen the non penalty given on Gallagher. Perhaps I’m biased but it looked a pen to me. Another day our final ball / luck would have been better and we would have won that. Seen us lose games like that one as well, so I’m fairly pleased with a point. Macca was outstanding and Ward did well at left back. Thought bringing on Benteke was a good move and he won a lot in the air and passing wasn’t bad as well. Think we may see a bit more of him in remaining games which may disappoint a few of our fans. We shall see? No complaints from me on our performance and Leeds defended well and didn’t get a last minute winner :-)

A feisty but unsatisfying performance.

The pace of the game caused too many errors, under pressure we usually pass to a marked man who has to get rid too quickly.

Leeds weren't the only team falling over and claiming fouls. I thought the ref. handled things well.

We needed calmness and authority to slow the game down, in other words a Christian Eriksen. All season (and previous seasons) we have lacked creativity - this must be addressed next season.

I thought McArthur and the defence had good games.

If you are going to play Benteke start him and take him off later. Bringing him on with 10 minutes left has always failed. Better to keep him on the bench and give Edoard a chance.

The only points I foresee to get us to 41 is against Watford but all remaining games are winnable and just as equally losable.

I thought the ref was f***ing useless personally. Completely lost control of the game the last 10 mins of the first half.

Exactly

He's better or at least good there as at right back.
Maybe it allows him to come inside more to pass infield.
Has a left foot as well.
Bit of a masterstroke by pat

I agree. He got better as the game wore on so I'm going to assume he's just needed more time to get his game back. I'm not worried about him.

Success will lie to you but failure always tells you the truth.
