Great win for us. We were pretty poor in the first half but much better in the second. Leeds ran out of steam and we looked quite comfortable in the end.

Apart from that scramble in our penalty area near the end we saw that game out pretty comfortably.

An unconvincing win against a team somehow ahead of us in the table. It's a start.

After our usual slow start and gift of a goal we played much better and I think deserved to win it. Early on Leeds gave us a lesson in intensity I wish we could learn that the game starts when the ref blows the whistle and not 20 mins later.
One more point |

Definitely a game of two halves, but that was probably still one of our weakest (if not the weakest) performance this season. Great pass from Mitchell for the second goal and obviously great composure from Eze. I've seen Leicester a few times this season and they are basically very good going forwards but equally bad at defending; we'll need to play a lot better defensively next week, but if we do we have a good chance of a win. Leeds were fast and aggressive (as we expected) but the referee didn't bottle it and gave fouls. We maybe got a few fortunate ones, but there were also a few obvious ones that weren't given so it balances out. Tyler Adams looked good for them, but they clearly miss the quality of Raphina. I think after a good start to the season they might struggle. Jesse Marsch looks like a very angry little man.

My point is that to start as woefully as we did against better sides than Leeds and it will already be over by the second half. We finished well and that is a good sign, hopefully they can go and find a bit of consistency in the next few games.

A well worked victory. Leeds gave us absolutely no space in the first half nullifying our attempts to attack. Our defence kept us in it. The second half they dropped their intensity and our play began to blossom. The flair players came into their own in the second half , a thoroughly deserved in the end. COYP

We really struggle against an energetic high pressing team but once they ran out of steam we took control. One thing is clear we desperately need a strong partner for Doucoure
