 Good result, but plenty of food for thought. Yes, Saiz and Clarke gave us far 
more creativity, but we seemed to lose our shape more often with their 
introduction, with the result that a pretty average team could easily have 
nicked points from us. 

Alioski - like others, I think he’s lightweight, a cheat and often under 
produces, BUT the way the ball pings about on the left with him, Douglas etc is 
impressive. Of course if Alioski gets to deliver the final ball it’s usually 
over hit or a crap grubber. His dive was really pathetic.

Baker - I didn’t really see him do anything of note, but we did lose our shape 
once he wasn’t there, so maybe he was of more use than it first appears?

BPF - one of the best penalty saves I’ve seen - he had a very solid game, and 
saved 2 points, as I doubt we’d have scored again if the penalty had gone in.

Up front we were unlucky not to nick a second, but imagine if we had a Jamie 
Vardy up there - we need some quality up front desperately. The Sky commentator 
was wittering on about how Roofe knew he could make it at Championship level - 
well that in itself is contentious, but he’s peaked and unless Bamford is a 
revelation we need to address this in January. 

Crowd noise - seemed like Highbury at times on tv - maybe Sky turned the volume 
down. It seemed louder late on though.

Re: [LU] Reading

[Jim Moran]

Couldn't agree more. If we could play that way all the time, we'd be in the
top 4 of the PL.

Re: [LU] Reading

[Richard Naef]

Disappointed with 2nd?  It's still a work in progress, we have skilful players 
playing a high intensity style that sometimes is an absolute joy to watch.  
Often it doesn't quite work, but when it does, like for the goal it makes up 
for al the nurdling in the world.

how any Leeds fan isn't on a high given what we've put up with the last 14 
years astounds me.  We all know that at some stage it'll turn to shit, I'm just 
enjoying it while it lasts.

Re: [LU] Reading

[John Lee via Leedslist]

Good result, but plenty of food for thought. Yes, Saiz and Clarke gave us far 
more creativity, but we seemed to lose our shape more often with their 
introduction, with the result that a pretty average team could easily have 
nicked points from us. 

Alioski - like others, I think he’s lightweight, a cheat and often under 
produces, BUT the way the ball pings about on the left with him, Douglas etc is 
impressive. Of course if Alioski gets to deliver the final ball it’s usually 
over hit or a crap grubber. His dive was really pathetic.

Baker - I didn’t really see him do anything of note, but we did lose our shape 
once he wasn’t there, so maybe he was of more use than it first appears?

BPF - one of the best penalty saves I’ve seen - he had a very solid game, and 
saved 2 points, as I doubt we’d have scored again if the penalty had gone in.

Up front we were unlucky not to nick a second, but imagine if we had a Jamie 
Vardy up there - we need some quality up front desperately. The Sky commentator 
was wittering on about how Roofe knew he could make it at Championship level - 
well that in itself is contentious, but he’s peaked and unless Bamford is a 
revelation we need to address this in January. 

Crowd noise - seemed like Highbury at times on tv - maybe Sky turned the volume 
down. It seemed louder late on though.
