It seems like bad luck to me but when I think back to the way RBL struggled under Jesse it seems eerily similar... outplaying their opponents... far more shots on goal... can't get it into the net and the opponent coming up with wonder strikes all over the place. It is a real head-scratcher to me. How often can I watch Leeds dominate the ball/chances but find themselves behind in the game. Just brutal. Unless something changes quickly it certainly looks like Leeds is "destined" to be relegated. Just seem snake-bit.
Man, the number of times I’ve hated Navas in my soccer watching life… it’s like the evil villain in some bad movie who just climbed out of his grave for one last crime spree…
Man, Leeds are so lucky to have Adams. He’s so flipping good. Edit: Would love to see an all touches video from this one.
Leeds needs to release gnoto closer to goal. He’s quicker than his defenders. Play him thru the seam. Mck sighting
The irony with Leeds is Jesse wants to play narrow but he doesn’t have a #10 or an equivalent interior creator to really make that approach tick. Leeds is a team with about 3 or 4 more wingers and at least 1or 2 fewer interior creators than they really need.
I was nervous-excited for this match because it must be said again, this is the highest quality squad Marsch has had at Leeds, but ugh! same old Leeds (smdh)
I might chicken out on the rest of the match (because I can’t take another Leeds loss) and just watch goal zone later to see how this ended.
Yup, that is what I feared. He will acclimate, but right now he think he has way more time on the ball than he does. The Prem is different, even vs weaker sides
Wes' passing looks like hot garbage early. Not seeing the field. Caught in possession, or bad passing choice - then chase for the ball. It's a more extreme version of what we see for the USMNT.
Honestly even Rutter is such a weird signing. He is a smaller, second striker type with great dribbling stats. The complete opposite of what I feel Leeds need. Leeds need a better Bamford type to actually hold up the ball and provide a real outlet for all their aimless long balls. (I reserve the right to retract this statement when Rutter scores in the next few minutes)
