Not sure what the tactical approach was today, we’ve not done anything. No good performances and two poor goals conceded. I’d switch to 4 at the back and make a few changes. Leeds haven’t actually looked that great.

Why? We’ve been great recently.

If there was a game to have a howler it’s this one tbh, time to move on

Leeds are the only team to fear there. 3 wins, draw and a loss certainly possible. I feel like we’re in a nice position. No expectations now really, but still have a chance at it. Getting anything out of tonight would be quality.

He's just another in a long line of strikers that are mustard in the championship and anonymous in the prem See: David Nugent, Jordan Rhodes, Dwight Gayle etc.

he's 20 tbf Point stands though, he's 4 years younger than Simms and 6 years younger than BTA/Wright. Could well be a better player than some of them in 4-6 years time.

are you suggesting the graph above shows sheaf shouldn't be in the team? I don't see how it does?

6th place currently averaging 1.47 ppg, on course for a record low points tally to make the playoffs (67/68)

true but points are much more variable/chaotic than underlying stats

point tallies over such a small sample of games aren't necessarily representative of actual performance

6 month deal with a years extension triggered if he features in 10 league games. Simple. Football Manager special

tbh I think that is like 90% the keeper swap. Our xG against stats have actually got marginally worse. Collins PSxG stats were by far the worst in the league. 5 at the back has probably helped slightly in terms of having more bodies back to block and pressure though.

not the point is it

Keep seeing that acronym, what does it mean again :ROFLMAO:

BTA and Simms won't both be playing when everyone is fit. Yeah, it is easier for the CBs but it makes us slower going forward. I thought Torp and Rudoni looked highly effective in the 433 when they were getting into the half spaces and making late runs into the box. Generally I just thought our...

We're not looking better with 5, we looked better with 4. More chances created and about the same conceded. The main reasons behind our form in the 5 back haven't been the formation, it's mostly actually having a competent keeper and a reduction in individual errors plus generally better luck.

Schlupp to Celtic

I can confirm this. Was back on 11th December though
