4/10 Thought Ince looked positive 1st half, ran out of steam/support 2nd half McClean also looked OK first half Good to see Bojan playing Looked better with Crouch up front Good subs HOWEVER Doesn't help when your keeper gives away soft goals, hopefully Butland has got that out of his system Ryan looks lost, what has happened there Wrong setup/formation against Leeds ... and the real problem is in midfield. Totally the wrong balance. Fix that and we might be OK.
Prediction: mid-table oblivion

4/10
This looked like our strongest starting XI however the set up/performance of the midfield 3 was at the root of most of the problems, no protection for the centre backs who also looked off the pace and ended up chasing shadows. Ince looked reasonable going forward but constantly faled to track back, McClean did track back and showed good energy and aggression but wasted a great chance created by his own pressing which hardly anyone else did.
All three goals down to individual errors, for the first why was Eric so far back when the rest of the back 4 pushed out that he played their guy onside? For the second why was their player allowed to run towards goal unchallenged by any of our mid-field and how on earth did Jack let that one through? For the third who was supposed to be defeding that area and why oh why wasn't there someone on the back post for what would have been an easy clearance.
Subs did improve us a little but make no mistake this could easily have been 5-1
