Surprised how mellow there support was actually. Not just in ground but in town. Deserved win for them overall though. They were like tourists... you can tell who it was a "Cup final" for... We have cup finals most weeks next 2 games are examples with hull who see us as a cup final then Cardiff who see us as a cup final

4 MOM performers at their best. I agree they played ok today but that’s one match since this time last year? Hogg and Schlinder have been great signings for us but their time is done.Bacuna and Stankovic have basically stolen a wage Wow! Oti's just lost his unbelievable post of the thread crown 😲

Poor game generally, very bitty. Both pressed well breaking up any cohesion. Hogg...woeful...so many poor and stray passes. Still brilliant at blaming others straight after though. 5 star. Kachunga continues to steal a living and the photos he has of Wagner in a compromising position must have been doctored to include the Cowleys. Koroma and Duhaney were lost. Stankovic...as useless on the ball as Zanka. Mounie and Bacuna ineffectual. Considering we had so many changes and so many off the pace its surprising how much we were in the game. L**ds...nothing special. Thougth Alioski was cute...a good little player. Bizarre and clueless post

I just struggle to see out of the players in the squad they're the 4 you've found fault with As I said Hogg and Schlinder have been brilliant for us over the years but their time is done imo,sentiment gets you relegated! Stankovic has been here for 3 years and no manager had picked him on a regular basis,and let’s face it if it wasn’t for Elphicks injury he wouldn’t be anywhere near,a 32 year old has been. Bacuna he might be a good player,he might not? Probably a decent squad man but neither here nor there for me.

Huddersfield team mainly made up of second choice players v not far off the best Leeds team that they could field
You would not have known who were promotion contenders especially in the first half , and surely all we ask is every player gave all from start to finish

Other than duck for the first goal and miss an absolute sitter again, I thought Kachunga had a good game today. He worked his bollocks off and had plenty of those runs up the field that people used to rave about VLP making. Problem is, he's inherited VLP's traits when he gets anywhere near the opposition box. I know I'm like a broken record but which runs ? He never attempted to go past Alioski. The only run I can remember he had about 3 days to pass to Bacuna who was away down the wing but held on that long that Berardi slid in front of him and he did his Tom Daley impersonation and somehow got him booked. Honestly I'm confused in that a few people have said he played well (on here, everyone I spoke to in the pub thought he was dire and 2 who left just before the end thought I was joking when I said he got the sponsors MoM), I thought he did his usual run about a lot but not actually tackle anyone or stop the pass. He cleared a Leeds attack in our box in the second half but I just thought he was anonymous for most of the game. I don't want to slate him but what did I miss ? Quite a bit by the sounds of it. The problem is that when you have a downer on a player, as Oti did with Billing, its often difficult to see any good in them. I'm no Kachunga fan and I think he's been poor for two years now but I still maintain he had a good game today.

I agree that Kachunga has done little of note for the past two years but in my opinion he had a good game today. As I said earlier, I'm not a fan of Stankovic either but you have to give credit where its due and both them played well today. No, Kachunga did not have a good game I am afraid. We were pretty poor as was the game. We were at home and no goals again. Cant give credit for easy misses and losing to a very average team. Pleased we were in it so long but that was the pressing and L&&d's failings. We'll have to agree to disagree then because I think he did.

That Ben White makes a huge difference.

Hopefully You lot need to get rid of some big earners and let them 2 brothers you have as managers buy some players in January and I think you will go far with them. They seem decent guys with a decent team of people around them.

Kachunga worked his bollocks off, in what, given the circumstances, was a decent team performance. It is possible for players to have good games without having any stand out highlights, as was the case with Stankovic who looked very assured at the back without anything of note that made him stand out from the rest

Bacuna is a bit erratic, one minute he does something great then next minute, something utterly shite. I've never seen a footballer use the outside of his foot more than he does, which gives rise to him never looking in control of the bloody ball.

Always disappointed to lose any game but couldn't fault much today with the players available. Central defenders played well - Stankovich especially. One of those players who could go either way - he should get a run in the team now and could.flourish. Was physically much stronger and composed on the ball. Duhaney was ok. Koroma was ok. Not more than that but didn't disgrace themselves. Mounie showed fight - especially in first half and threatened. Need to start taking these chances. I know kachunga splits opinion but hes getting in the right places - got to score them though.
All in all let's keep the faith. Terrible injury problems and we need our first choice full backs and the creative midfielders back. Am a bacuna fan but today showed he still struggles in a two. Better in a three.
To be honest Leeds should go up - let's hope they fuck it up in the second half as per...
