Will kept it brief - as it stands Bielsa not officially gone - this was awful , the players have lost all confidence both in defence and attack. We had enough clear chances to have, at least in theory , made it 4 4 but the forwards, like the defenders are totally out of sorts. Make no mistake, spurs on form are a good team, Kane and Son as dynamic a front 2 as exists, but they came here out of form and so we had a chance. We went 3 at the back something the fans dont rate and dont like but as shown statistically by the Square ball lads is actually effective. Anyway after a start where a Struik header came close we starting to commit Hari Kari- first Forshaw lost the ball and we were cut open, 1 0, then Llorente had his first moment of madness , getting in Firpos way and air kicking at the ball , 2 down.Koch hit the post which could have got us back in it, but then Llorente let Kane get behind him, mistimed the flight of the ball and bang 3nil and game over. Try and win the second half we said, but again MB made subs that we did not want , the fans want Geldhart, full stop. Would he have changed things ? Probably not but at worst nothing changes, at best he bas some brilliance that he and we can take into the next game. We gave it a go, and then if more proof were needed that we are in trouble, Dallas was through with a empty net and Raph alongside and made an absolute mess of it- see photo on Twitter. James then missed an easy- ish chance pulling a shot wide with no conviction. They then had a great piece of play to stick in the 4th and send some fans home. They did not miss anything as our chance of even a consolation went begging as Raph fired a free kick at the post The final whistle brought some muted boos but soon totally drowned out by applause shouts of encouragement and chants of W.A.L.L Rumours swept the pub, main,y because of Phil Hay that Bielsa had gone -the mood was disbelief and disgust at the board. Most match going fans are still behind Bielsa but many do want him to leave at the end of the season having kept us up ( probably the camp I am in )Dave _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: https://mailman.gn.apc.org/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected]
