My first look at the new team / players as I was watching the Wolves game on my phone after landing at the airport and missed a lot of the game. I thought it was a game of ups and downs for us with our strongest period being before the drinks break in the 2nd half. After the drinks break we seemed to stop playing with a few players looking like they were struggling (Roca and Adams in particular) and Marsch needed his subs on earlier. He has admitted to this afterwards which is fair. Very disappointing to lose a 2 goal league but any away point is useful. Overall, I think we might have played 2 of the teams who will be involved in a relegation battle with us so 4 out of 6 points aint bad. For me though, I think the tactics are suspect. I don't think our new recruits are doing it at the moment and although it's very early days I have grave concerns about Kristensen and Roca. Roca really struggled 2nd half and he lacks pace and looks very ordinary to me. Rasmus just looks industrial with no real guile to his play / defending. Scores: Meisler - 6. I thought he could have saved one of the goals Kristensen - 3. Contributed nothing other than a few panic clearances Struijk - 5. Doesn't look completely comfortable at left back but the 2nd goal was his (Rod knicked it) and he got through a lot of work. Koch - 6. Some good work Llorente - 6. Likewise but desperate defending at times Adams - 4. Looks very lightweight to me. For their first goal he just gave up. Roca - 3. Didn't contribute much after the first 25 mins. Aaronson - 7. Lively without threatening. Rodrigo - 7. Poor first half but then came alive. Bamford - 3. injured again Harrison - 7. I thought he was our best player throughout. Subs: Klich - looked lively again off the bench. Sinisterra - also lively
Unbeaten in 2 but I think we'll get tonked by any of the top 6 teams. Hope I'm wrong. _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: https://mailman.gn.apc.org/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected] Find us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/leedslist/ Rest in Peace Guy, and wear your hat!
