Sad to see tonight. A fortunate deflection for their first and we crumbled. Lack of experience showed and the same happened tonus as happened to Saints the other day. At the end of the day our heroes are only human and that's what can happen when disappointment and shock set in. Anyone saying the players don't have the talent or desire, or that Farke doesn't know what he is doing are ludicrous. We are still 2nd, we have got a huge points haul and we have broken countless records. The season isn't over and even if it was we will be back bigger and stronger than before. I know it's disappointing but take a deep breath and try to see it in perspective. We march on, together.

Agree alf. Like bielsa's first season the team have lost form right at the death and are looking like they're running on empty.
Personally I would have liked kamara in the middle for his experience as grays inexperience showed. He was a bit anonymous in the first half.
Our defence was too passive and blocks were too late.
It is going be hard to in the playoffs if that our fate.
A bridge too far for an inexperienced side.

Not naive Baz, purely Alfs opinion and reasoned take on the situation. Its a hell of a battle for 46 matches, no player or team can perform at their pinnacle game in game out or even for 90 minutes at a time. We have to take the achievements of the season in context and to have 90 points is phenomenal. What Alf has to say is very viable I believe but that's also just my opinion!

agree baz. Not naive at all
Big gulf.
In between optimism and negativity is realism.
Alf and vid etc missed the middle.

Speaking of realism Aus.

Vid its more than a tad hyperbole to refer to 90 points as " phenomenal " when Leicester have potentially 7 points more

AND even more pertinently Ipswich a team that was 2 leagues below Leeds last season will also have more points!

Imo Bielsa's Leeds ( with a midfield of Pablo, Klich, KP, Dallas) etc beat this Farke's Leeds.

As for Farke 's "coaching" evident all season that Farke's main/ only tactics is for team to just give ball to Summerville and Rutter and rely on their ability.

Buendua and Pukki carried Farke and Norwich to EPL

SF49ers have a tough call to make.

Well Baz I would suggest that for 3 teams to achieve 90+ points in the same season in such a competitive league is unheard of, so yes, the achievements of all 3 is indeed phenomenal and I doubt will ever be seen again.

Vid ; Leeds finishing on 90 points ( or 93 at best) counts for nowt if they don't get promoted.

Farke has also considerably underachieved with a front line of £130 million ( Rutter, Gnonto, Summerville, DJ, Bamford, Piroe . to be topped by Ipswich fgs!

And as for " phenomenonal " 90 points, just last season Burnley finished on 101 points ( 11 points more ) and Sheff Utd on 91 points . and one has seen how woeful this season they have been .

Realism.

It was a disappointing night, that’s for sure. However, if Ipswich fail to win either of the next two games, then it goes to the last game, irrespective. …most fans, even those who supposedly deal in realism, would have taken our position even a few weeks ago, nevermind at the start of the season.

Overall we have had a great season, far better than anyone might have hoped and certainly better than most predicted. As for 90 points, well, we have only ever done it once before, so an amazing achievement. I’m for one appreciative of what the lads have done in the name of Leeds United this season, and if it turns out, that they fall short, then so be it.

Vid; yes, it is an amazing achievement for all 3 teams at the top of the league to have gained 90+ points before the season has finished! And two of those teams have done so without flouting financial regulations too!
