Much improved.
Semedo's best game for us I think, and the midfield two were absolutely fantastic. Notably higher up the pitch, Neves rarely (if ever) ran to Coady to take to ball off his toes today, and even got in the box in open play once or twice!
It was a good, even game, though Leeds probably edged it on chances created for me, particularly with some top quality set pieces.
From a game management perspective, I've no problem with us taking an age over throw ins etc after 70odd, and we didn't sit as deep as we have done when protecting a lead this season. That corner can fuck off that early though!
Jose can sometimes hold the ball up and lay it off to feet, but when Adama and Neto are driving in field he really needs to make a run to give them space and/or an option. I'm not a fan at all tbh, and I'd rather us see more of Fabio, even if it's half each rather than 80:10.
We played well, but we've got to be real and acknowledge we were probably lucky to come away with three points - but at least you could actually see what we're trying to do. A bit more movement up top and some better decision making by the front 3 and we can go into next season confident of getting back up the right end of the table
