Vital Reserves Team
Casillas 10, Dallas 10, White 10, Cooper 10, Douglas 10, Philips 10, Hernandez 10, Forshaw 10, Klich 10, Harrison 10, Bamford 10, Costa 10, Alioski 10.

Leeds were perfect 10 as sheep for slaughter.

Forest had Leeds all figured out and other decent teams will soon.

Semedo was the hound in the pack as he shepherd Leeds into a channel that filter attacks from Harrison to Bamford right into the feet of Worrall and Cash.

With Leeds attack nullified and Bamford unsure about the direction of net, it’s game, set and point Forest.

I gave Leeds perfect 10 for their endeavors. The players gave everything.

But beautiful football that got Leeds so enamored plus the feelings of self-entitlement for dominating procession do not win games. These are the domain of exhibition matches.

And the blame lies squarely at the feet of Bielsa for dishing out a patterned style of play that is predictable, lacks guile and you could pretty much read it like a book.

Sambri’s substitutions were inspired and cemented the win while Bielsa procrastinated his next move.

Can't agree with you unless teams are relying on Bambi missing a hat full of chances. He cost us games last season and he cost us yesterday. Teams don't have to figure us out as by now everyone knows our style of play. It's all about can they stop us, which most can't, and can we take enough of the chances that come our way. As most of these fall to Bambi and he can't then it's all down to us whether we win or not.
 
Agree, Leeds created chances but they are mostly scratching the surface.
There are no quality nor incisiveness.

Spot on Simon ,it don’t mattter how other teams play against us,we just need to hit the net, but I do think we should have brought in a prolific goal scorer,.
 
The quality of the delivery left a lot to be desired.
Bamford is technically gifted.
If he gets his body shape right, he is going to bang them in.
 
Hope the slack in the 2nd half of last year is just down to a bad blip and not because teams had Leeds all mapped up.
 
Bambi has scored some good goals. However recalling the many chances he has missed they are from all angles, close in, not so close in, tricky, easy. At the moment he just does not have that finishing touch and eye for goal.. Bielsa likes the 1 up front so if he keeps missing he will have to give Nketiah a go.
