Match reaction: Cardiff City 0-2 Leeds United

[@kenjarvis8989]

Just updated my database, since 1984, our record against Cardiff reads P30 W6 D8 L16 (3 wins in last 4 games makes it look a bit more healthier) so let's enjoy a good win against one hell of a bogey team MOT

[@control2XS]

Seeing as Farke's biggest complaint is that he doesn't have a 10, is it maybe time he stops playing 4-2-3-1? Why does he insist on using a system that has TWO DMs, and a relies on a 10 that we don't have? Why not play more like a 4-3-3, with Amps or Gruev holding and then you can play the likes of Tanaka and Rothwell in front of him with the license to actually get forward?

[@headonyou9826]

❤😅😢😢😂

[@TruthNowX99]

why should he sacrifice his style of play just because the 49ers won't deliver?

[@paulneedham9885]

@@TruthNowX99they have delivered more than Bates. Some people are never happy unless it’s their own money being used.

Three points away to Cardiff is never to be sniffed at. We've struggled down there all too often in the past. 😊❤😊

[@gyorkshire257]

Yeah, I suppose seeing them depressed is some kind of emotion.

[@jloky.x]

Piroe seems to be the perfect player for when we're winning to kill the game, which can be incredibly useful. When we're losing with a team sitting deep he isn't the player you want

[@maxfoner8623]

I can't get my head around the current mood about the team. Two years ago EVERYONE would have killed for Leeds to recycle the ball when Marsch had them passing into dead ends constantly. Now it seems like people would do anything to have Marsch's chaos back...

[@cgdimension]

due to all the late squad changes, transfers in and out, these games are pretty much pre season, so pretty similar to last season, but they have had better results, just one defeat without playing that well

[@EllandRoar84]

Genuine question, what do we work on in training? I cant think of anything we do particularly well for the talent in our squad.

[@jamesrogerson1137]

Farke cant win really. We lose 1-0 and he gets flak, we win in a comfortable 2-0 fashion and he also gets flak for being too comfortable! What is wrong with people?

[@calvingrindle1802]

I would rather have a boring win than an exciting loss to be honest, good three points on the road

[@psycshane]

The subs were fine? Seriously lads?! They were shocking. If Tanaka is not coming on at 60 mins vs bottom of the table with 10 it's a joke.

[@andyc3408]

We are really missing Georgies ability to pick a fast pass and create forward momentum from nothing. Without him we lack creativity. It's just side to side waiting for a gap.

[@paulwilliams5296]

Playing 2 defensive midfielders against a team who's scored 1 goal this season seemed strange to me. It got more strange as we persisted with that after they went to 10 men, even going a goal up the status quo remained, to me that's negative when you have Rothwell warming the bench. Negative side to side and backwards. I believe its 160 shite corners on the bounce now. I was very positive this season even after last week's defeat but that performance up front yesterday has left me questioning where our goals are going to come from

[@andrewcornfield5001]

It was fucking pathetic mate

Sam Byrum seems to be a much much better player than Boggle, i know he was only on for 15 mins but we seemed so much better down the right. I got to the point with that game i didn't care, it was just so frustrating i was hoping the ref would blow his whistle and put us out of our misery

[@kelvinengland3991]

@@ronisofroniou7740 well he won a penalty and made zero defensive errors, he was a constant threat going forward. Can you please give me reasons he was awful in your opinion, not just 'he was awful'. From what I have seen he scored as one of our better players in all the ratings sites too. I don't understand what he did that was so bad except dive. He had no difficulties defensively and made zero errors and gave us a lot of threat down that side when people decided to play him in. Ampadu and Aaronsson gave the ball away and caused us issues on a couple of occasions, that's all I can remember defensively were anyone on our side caused our own problems.

You know how some teams have a specialist coach for set pieces… I think the 49ers should invest in a coach in charge of making the substitutions, because MY WORD, Farke doesn’t have it.
