LUFC Fans view v Hull City

Tiny T gives us his usual fans view from Elland Road, this time after the 2-2 draw with Hull City.

Schmeichel 7

No chance with either goal, distribution could be better. He was largely untroubled.

Connolly 7
Solid at the back and supported well down the right.

O'Brien 8
Sign him up Grayson, organises at the back, great goal, what more do we need.

Bruce 8
Another of the defence who had a good night, great clearance off the line as well.

McCartney 7
Like the rest in defence another solid display, our best crosser from the left as well.

Snodgrass 7
He had a better first half than second, gave the left back problems, delivery needs to be quicker.

Howson 7
Kept us on the front foot, used the ball intelligently and puts his foot in.

Johnson 5
Gave away free kick for stunning first goal, scores the equaliser, misses a open goal with a header, then miss kicks for an Own Goal. Sums up Bradders night. One word - concentration.

Kilkenny 4
He won't or cannot tackle, easily brushed off the ball, and slows the game down when we need to move quickly. Backwards and sideways forward always through the middle ' go wide man '.

Gradel 7
Good first half, faded in the second. Needs to deliver into the middle, you can't beat them all Max.

Becchio 8 Star man
Playing the role of lone striker well, set up Johnson, hit the bar and brought others into play. He`s much underrated and has stepped up to this level well.

Substitutes
Somma 3
Did he really get on? Anonymous.

Paynter & Sam
Not really on long enough

Summary
How did we draw? Good performance against the worst team at Elland Road
this season.
Defensively sound, O'Brien doing the organising and both fullbacks got forward in support.
Midfield I would like to see Nunez given a chance ahead of Kilkenny.
A negative note personally thought Simon Grayson needed to make his substitutes sooner and Paynter should have come on before Somma.

Overall pretty good report and pretty much as i saw it. Maybe you are generous with Howson as i thought he went totally missing for long periods in a deeper role thjan he plays away from ER. Johnson showed more energy and fight than any of the midfielders and probably deserved more than a 5. (did Johnny get the same critricism for missing an easier open goal last week after scoring the opener ??? No because we won.) I would have given O'Brien MoM but thats just differing opinions.

A game that Leeds dominated for long periods according to reports so surprised to see two midfielders scoring 5 and 4. I think now some peoples judgement is being misted by a pre emptied perseption that they are going to do badly. My only criticism of Kilkenny is his tackiling, I can't find fault with the rest of it, he's not in the side to spray the ball all over the park with 40 and 50 yard passes.

I wonder what the marks would have been if it had finished 2-1?
