Huddersfield won the ball and pushed forward, Holtby, Rothwell and Johnson were casually jogging back to our goal. Disgraceful.

They are pressing us all over the park and we don't seem to be able to handle it.

6th game running we have conceded first. Abysmal.

What kind of defending is that? 5 players around him and no one even fucking jumps.

WTF was that by Lenihan? Did he get stamped on?

Hudds pressing us high up the pitch. Something we were doing at the start of the season but seem to have stopped doing for a while now No idea why, we looked much better when we did.

Ugh, Arma. Thought that was in

Great save by Kaminski. Why did Bell just stand and watch their lad take a shot? Didn't even attempt to close him down!

I'm laughing at this 🤣 And yet crying at the same time 😭

Better to have Gallagher trying to whip balls into Arma and Elliott. Much more effective

Shame that Trybull has gone off. I think our system needs a dedicated holding midfielder to screen the back 4. Johnson isn't really that guy, neither is Holtby, downing or Rothwell.

Brereton and Elliott in the wide positions should give us much more than Gallagher being shoehorned outwide.

Gallagher and trybull both have travelled with the squad

Not a great record for the calendar year. 1 more loss than wins. Less than half the available points have been picked up (56/126), a lot of goals conceded as well. Leeds went up last season conceding just 35 goals from 46 games. We've shipped 61 from our last 42. The top 9 teams in the Championship conceded less goals across 46 games than that. More evidence that Mowbray isn't the right man for the job. His disregard for our defensive frailties is constantly biting us in the arse.

So basically the first half is pretty much a write off for us and we only start kicking into life in the last 30mins of games. Yer I know, I'm not holding my breath. Don't even know why I said it to be honest. Too much chocolate, beer and snacks over Xmas. Gone to my head.

He's a doubt, so hopefully he is rested for tonight's game.

He'd better not start Gallagher on the wing. Its failed pretty much everytime. Mowbray needs to start learning form his mistakes.

Was just about to say the same thing. Also, like them we too have shady owners and at one point we had rumours of players not being paid (although it ended up being just that as far as I remember) Gotta feel for those Sheff Wed fans, we've been there and its wank.

Pretty sure I read that Mowbray has never beaten a team managed by Pulis either.

Confidence in Rovers/Mowbray is back to an all time low for me. Performances are poor, defending is comical and we are in another poor run of form. We will probably lose this and then possibly snap out of the Mogga death spiral and go 7 unbeaten starting against Birmingham.

A few earlier posts about him playing as a false 9 and shunting Arma outwide. From memory, and I could be wrong, but we've played with the false 9 a few times with a number of different players (Holtby, Dack and Buckley) and it seems to fail more often than succeed. I think Holtby scored 2 games running or something but I can't remember if he was a false 9 or not at the time. I'd be very reluctant to shove Arma back outwide as well, where the number of good games he's had there you can count on 1 hand. Dack is our best player by some distance, so if 4-3-3 doesn't suit, we need to revert back to 4-2-3-1. It wouldn't be at the detriment of any other players as Mowbray constantly plays people out of position as it is and all but around 2 of our players (Nyambe & Kaminski) are incredibly inconsistent in our current set up. Rothwell would be probably the biggest casualty but he's just as inconsistent as the rest.

Stunning really how he's managed to get us in near enough the exact same position for the last 3 seasons. The evidence that we are not progressing is right there. Having a better squad is even more damning of Mowbray's abilities as a manager that we actually have a lower (albeit very minor) points tally than both 2 previous seasons. The slow build is obviously just bullshit and a smokescreen to pander to the fans/owners. Times up, get Bilic or Pearson and have a real crack at promotion. Venkys won't do that though. Terrible owners who make abysmal decisions.

Play off bid 😂

We weren't hit on the break yesterday, we should have been fully in control of that situation but yet another piece of abysmal defending let us down, albeit the goal scored was a superb strike. Still Douglas shouldn’t have headed the ball into Ayala in the first place. Poor Communication or just a lapse in concentration, either way, unacceptable.
