Bullied in the first half. Turned it round in the second. Some quality performances: Man of the match for me was Guendouzi. Luiz and Sokratis were decent. Two clean sheets in a row! Well done to Arteta and the team. Bring b on Palace.

Martinez was also superb.

You have to live his energy and determination but Matteo's diving and giving possession up because he over plays is ridiculous and why he can’t start in the epl.
Between him overplaying and Xhaka not releasing the bell quick enough - it would be a disaster. The pair at times were a liability today and how Xhaka tackles is a joke.
To then have the audacity to dive and moan about tackles the next minute baffles me. The only thing worse was Holding’s passing. Good news is - he’s just found his man in the showers 😂
Martinelli was just splendid when he came on.

Holding's performance tonight was worrying but understandable given his recent injury problems. Explains why he hasn't been in the team of late, just hope he can rediscover his form over the next few months as he has the potential to be a great player for us!

Thought Luis and Papa were good throughout while Holding looked very very poor through out, he's been injured so obviously wasn't at his best but even at his best i think he's well over hyped
Martinelli is 100% the real deal.

I’d give mom to Martinez. Second up Nelson.
Not sure how Laca beat him to mom - he looked slow and poor touch in first half. Really don’t want to have to rely on Laca for all our goals - would rather play Martinelli. Laca couldn’t pull away from their defenders.
Papa after that as he played completely out of position and was no worse than Luiz. But can’t really put a defender forward as LEEDS created chances at will in first half which is down to the 2 CM and defence although I don’t think anyone got to grips with the game until halftime.

Funny how we see things differently!
I thought Nelson looked out of his depth
At the moment (things might well change) but Maitland Niles Holding Manop Nelson Pepe Wilock Tierney ( injury hasn't helped) all look well short of the top of the bill star rating they've been given by some fans.

62 - to be fair no one deserved more than 6 out of 10 except Martinez. Defence was poor and so were midfield. I’m not saying he was great but his pace and drive caused LEEDS issues. boys picked up their game in the last 45 so don’t need to be that great to get mom for us.

62- completely agree about Nelson looking out of his depth. Everytime I’ve seen him running with the ballthis season he looks like he’s running on banana peels, hope he finds his feet soon because he’s always looked like a real talent but at this rate he’s fallen below martinelli and Saka in the pecking order.

Got to agree sy, martinez should of been the only candidate for mom, without him the ties over at half time and it doesn't matter how much better we are second half.
