That was a flawed performance in many ways. Not a lot of the boys can be happy with their performance today.

Dont quite get why Sarmiento / Buonanotte / Enciso were stuck on the bench all game.
A feisty PL game was probably not for them

V frustrating. The game was so open at 1-2, and we really should have put it to bed then. Both their goals well taken but soft. To be fair to Leeds, they don’t stop running and I’m surprised they didn’t start with Gnoto. Anyway, as others have said, to go there, get a point and feel very disappointed is kind of a new feeling. Now let’s turn our focus to Wednesday when we are owed several after their luck over the last few games. I have a feeling it will be a memorable and fantastic night to be an Albion fan…
Bang on. Don’t be too down with today. They could have nicked it too for all our dominance. We played some great stuff in a hostile atmosphere. Our fans were great. We are a proper football team in the top division. We got an away point. So many reasons to be positive.

Thought Estupinian had a storming game.

On a more positive note - just switched on for City against Palace: Haaland has scored 6 more goals this season than Crystal Palace

On the coach waiting to get out the car park. Awful view but definitely feels like 2 points dropped. That was a game we should have won.

So we outplay the opponents and take the lead, and then we sit back, inviting them onto us, and then complain about the tactics when they inevitably score, screaming 'why didn't we just carry on as we were!'
I’m not saying that, that used to drive me mad under Potter, I’m an advocate of going for the throat merely pointing out that away from home the tactic doesn’t seem to have been AS successful, we’ve thumped a lot of teams at home this season.

Maybe, maybe not. A feisty PL game usually means that some fresh legs in the final 15 or so could cause quite a bit of nice things.
I don’t think they are quite ready for feisty, much like Ali Mac when he arrived here :shrug:

They will be soon enough though

It’s a game that on the balance of PLAY I would say a draw was a fair result but CHANCES we should have won comfortably, funny old game football.

Whenever I write in capitals it REMINDS me of an old NSC poster called Ernest. :bowdown:

It’s not.

Happy to help.
It is. We scored twice. That is a fact. One of the goals was incorrectly disallowed by VAR, so it's not allowed to count in the result or stats, but we did score it.

It's difficult to keep being positive and giving ourselves a chance to extend our lead and also kill the game from a defensive point of view, without inviting them onto ourselves. I'm sure Roberto would like to kill the game if it was that easy.

Listened on radio, sounded like we should’ve won. Warren saying 2 points dropped. One of my faves Welbeck missed a good chance, if that boy could finish he’d be a hell of a player.

I never have any faith he’s going to finish a chance, his goals always seem to be unexpected ones… the long ranger vs West Ham and the flick and volley.

He doesn’t have the composure, he never did even as a younger player that’s why he found himself out wide a lot.
