Is this the end for Christiansen? Leeds player ratings v Brentford

I’m in two minds about Christiansen. One part of me thinks this is a long-term project and we should ride it out, but the other thinks this is relegation form and we can’t keep this going much longer. Leeds have now lost seven games out of eight. Leeds played well for about 30 minutes of the game but you can’t argue with the result, Brentford were the better team.

Andy Lonergan – 1 – I don’t really have any words for him, he’s cost us the game. Both goals he should be saving with ease, back to Felix..?

Into the defence…

    Gutted !!! With the 3-1 score line We need a british manager to steady the ship.
    TC has lost the dressing room and also the players are to blame.
    The leeds players are not playing for the famous white shirt they put on.
    At this rate we will be in the relegation zone.
    Players seem to have lost motivation, drive ,eagerness to play for such a big name club.
    We need a change.

    TC out. Will be a relagation battle nevertheless, but 7 losses in 8 games doesn’t warrant a place at a club like this. And yeah, should have kept Green and not chased away Monk.

    LaSLOWgga absolute joke points to where he wanted the ball and stopped. Laziest Leeds player I have ever seen don the shirt!

  • David H says:

    Wouldn’t blame Ayling for the miss. Cooper pushed him out of the way – if not he would have kept his balance and the game would have finished 2-2 !

    Sack TC NOW NOW NOW.

  • FRED says:

    Most goalkeepers are poor these days, because non of them seem to want to catch a ball anymore
    The modern-day ball is more like a beach ball, than the proper Mitre ball of the 1980’s and 90’s, which were very heavy, but that never stopped Ian Baird from getting his body in front of the ball, when charging down shots or corners.
    Even modern-day defenders don’t like getting their bodies in front of the modern-day light beach ball.
    Bunch of light-weights !

    It gives me no pleasure to say that I am not surprised by this run of results. If a club sells the spine of the side that won seventh place the previous season and releases (Doukara) or does not use to the full or even at all players still on our books (Roofe, Sacko, Hernandez, Dallas) who in their different ways contributed in their different ways to our rise up the table last season, yet puts its trust in a motley assortment of untested lightweights, only one of whom whom would have pressed for a start in Monk’s team, what else can one expect ? I think we do still have sufficent god players on our books at least mto arrest this slide (though not to achieve a play off position) BUT only under a different Manager. Personally I do not want to hear any more about ‘the project’ – Cellino left us with enough to build on without delaying further our return to the top flight. Mr R’s I am afraid has got his priorities wrong: first getbus out of this Division and then think about the ground, infrastructure, ladies team and so on.

    we are f—-d he needs to go with orta and all the garbage players they took to this club pack them up and piss them offfff before we end up in a dog fight at the other end of the table bring in a british manager who knows what is required, A. R YOU NEED TO MAKE THIS DECISION NOW.

    I would get a great striker and a great goal keeper instead! Following is an advice to TC or who ever in charge:
    Hi Thomas
    I hope you can use the 2 week international break to sort out our defence!! You see last 3defeats we scored every game! If we can keep a clean sheet in these 3 games, we will have 9 points!! We have 2 terrible goal keepers and they both useless and cost us dearly!!! Get Green back or at least that kind of standard! Because at moment we don’t have a decent goal keeper, the shooting on target must kept 0!!!! That means defenders in front the gate must work even harder!! We must stop this last 10 minuets panic by our defence like today!!! We are 1:1 , and then 10 minuets panic we allowed opposition shooting twice and 3:1!!! There’s no goal keeper!!!

    Has anyone noticed the preponderance of Orta signings in the squad.
    The Roife and Dallases always miss out to the Lasogga, Grot and Aliiskis.

    Who really picks the team.

    Orta continually tries to get his personal signings wheeled onto get into the field and play themselves and him out if trouble.

    They get on the field and play Leeds into trouble.

    I notice that my previous post does not give a conclusive reason why I think TC should go. Well here it is: successful managers (or leaders in any field) are able generally to hide their anxieties from those they are charged with managing/leading. Unfortunately TC”s anxieties are all too clearly written on his face and in his eyes. If we can see this, then the playets must see it writ large. Furthermore he does not give the impression of someone in control of the situation – his tendency to deflect criticism onto the players is revealing. Basically he lacks confidence in himself. These for me constiute conclusive reasons why he should not continue as our Manager. A comparison with Milanic is begging to be drawn. Better the bluff and bluster of a Steve Evans or the stones faced mien of Monk than the frightened rabbit appearance of the thoroughly decent Mr Christianson. Cellino had many faults but he had a sharp eye for what, in street parlance, I believe is called a ‘loser’. Unfortunately our squad appears currently to be led by one.
