We were very good today
Green solid and confident
Ayling Excellent.
Pontus and Bartley Powerful and dominant
Taylor good but just does not look happy
Sacko exciting and if only he had some end product
Phillips poor first half but much better second.
O'Kane grew into the game
Dallas solid
Hernandez MOM
Wood ok

My only criticisms are why do we continue to bring everyone back for corners, especially when you have the pace of Sacko., stick him on the half way line. To often today we cleared but the ball came straight back as there was no outlet.
My biggest criticism is for Chris Wood, yes he scored and yes there was that cracking shot off the post but he got caught offside to often, was so slow coming back from attacks and won few if any headers when the ball was played up to him. I also lost count of the amount of times he allowed the defender to get in front of him to take the ball while he waited for it. For a big old unit he gets bullied by defenders too much for my liking . Sorry.

What utter nonsense regarding Wood. This was the best game I have seen Wood play for Leeds in a long time. He led the line, was physical against two strong centre backs, won headers and held the ball up for advancing team mates. Scored a goal and was unlucky not to get a second. Wood has played poorly, particularly at the start of the season, but to state he was just Ok today is very disrespectful.

Sorry Notts and Degsy can't agree. He does not do enough for me and does not have certain qualities that our style of play needs. Too often he was beaten to the ball by their centre backs and he gets caught offside far to much. He is our most expensive signing our highest earner and I want him to be a handful to play against but I did not feel he was yesterday. Beechio of a few years ago would be a great fit in this system and style of play.

Yesterday he was a handful, over the season I agree he has not been. It depends how much you expect from a £3 million striker? Those that do what you want on a regular basis cost a premium. I accept that Becchio cost very little but players like that are not easy to find (right person, right club, right time) .

Wood is playing as a lone striker so the two center backs will win the ball much of the time if the service is not good. The lad wad clearing corners and closing down yesterday so he was doing enough for me. I think if you asked Mcarthy which Leeds player he would take it would be Wood.

I thought Wood had his best game so far. Ran for every ball, worked hard and was an all round menace for Ipswich. He did miss a couple of chances and if Ipswich had got a late equaliser then you have to look at chances missed. Sacko was guilty too of a guilt edge Miss, but the difference this year is we don't look like conceding ourselves. Like Wood or not he is doing what he is paid for and whether that goes in off his arse or his elbow if it goes in the net and counts what can we complain about?
