But for a couple of dodgy penalty decisions we could have easily got a point and maybe even a win. When you're a massive club and a threat to the big 6 like we are you know you are up against more than just the opposition. We'll be alright though as def 4 sides we'll finish above

Serious question - why do you spend so much time on a clarets forum, in opposition to every notion in every thread posted?

If we'd played properly at Elland Rd, then we'd most likely be above them now.
Biggest disappointment of the season.

They seemed to think they were safe, with hugs all round after beating us at Elland Road.
It was the equivalent of Peter Taylor's "Better luck next time Stan"

Biesla ball, perfecting the way the ball goes in the back of your own net. Crazy overstated manager. Horrible club. Horrible fans. Praying they go down.

Leeds will play the same way every match and xan be good to watch. However, when all the teams at the bottom dig in and get some success, they will be revealed as 'the soft touch'.
They must hope that they can get 4 wins out of middle of the table teams, with nothing at stake.

They may well do, but two or three more big defeats and low confidence may be difficult to turn around.

Exactly what Klopp (and Pep) wants is for clubs to turn up to try to match them in open play. That way when Liverpool hammer them, klopp gets to say nice things about the opposition instead of whinging like a bitch because him and his team were unable to break a team of “ inferior” players down.
Naive in the extreme from Bielsa. First thing I did on seeing the score was check to see how many Leeds players had been sent off…

No fair point, and I'm not crowing, but we have never been battered all season, whereas some of the other sides down there have taken some heavy defeats, that can't be good for confidence surely.
Yes we're still in the bottom 3, but compare our form to those around us, and what gives me hope is we've never gone on long runs of defeats this season, far too many draws yes, but we haven't suffered losing 3/4/5 games on the bounce which other teams in the dogfight have done.
Leeds have shipped 56 goals in 25 games, so averaging more than 2 a game against, it's hard to win many games if you need to score 3.

The Leeds defeat was a heavy defeat. Maybe not in the numerical sense, but we were absolutely shafted on the day. We rolled over like I have never witnessed under Dyche. We have been hit for five a few times but never chucked the towel in like we did at Bellend Rd this season...
I was convinced after that game we were done at this level.
Now? Now I'd say we have a huge chance of getting out of this. If we do, judging by our recent dalliances in the transfer market, (which have been excellent) I reckon we could easily be an established PL mid-table side.
