Decent line up

but why not rest Rice and Soucek and give Kral a start?

Surprisingly

Leeds have not had a yellow card yet.

Spuds

Losing to Morecambe ha ha ha

Some great link up play ,Lanz

Some great link up play ,Lanz better than he was

Interesting first half

Lanzini is in fine form but Leeds aren’t going to let us run the game. Few cards could have been given especially the one when Ant was dragged down when he looked like he could get away.

Dreadful game

So pedestrian not imposing ourselves on a makeshift Leeds side very poor indeed

We need

To put this to bed, we missed good chances and that could come back to haunt us.

Wasted so many

Corners & free kicks today,lucky really that they are under strength

If i did not support West Ham

That game would of been switched off at half time totally insipid uninspiring performance probably Vlasic the only one who put in any kind of performance...2-0 flattered us big time

Think your being a bit harsh

Think your being a bit harsh bike, i agree we shoulda scored a hole lot more but we were always in command,and it was dreadfully dull performance from Leeds settle for that in the week

Calling it as i see it Burkie

We probably had our strongest side out thats possible right now and Leeds had a lot og youngsters out there yet we could not get on the front foot we sat back as usual and hoping to catch them on the break.....this was not Liverpool/Citeh or Chelski this was a Leeds side struggling big time yet we made very hard work of it...yes win when you play bad and all that but come on at home against an injury ravaged Leeds side i expect more.

We are through

Most important thing! Vlasic,Bowen,lanzini & Ants were very good today...the rest were pretty poor imo

oh well

a win is a win at least we are in the hat for the draw (bet we get the spuds)

Kidderminster away

Bet thats on tv!

Wonder

If Kidderminster will reverse the venue?

They Can't

F.A. changed that few years back as so many ties were being reversed they felt it was taking something from the competition so its a case of you play where you are drawn...not even sure if they are allowed to use a bigger ground in the area to help boost attendance.

Vlasic really stood out. He

Vlasic really stood out. He has earned his place in the starting lineup. West Ham should have put this game to bed in the first half. Bowen, Antonio, Rice and Lanzini were the usual ones who also impressed me. The Hammers could, should and will go back into 4th place after Wednesday's game versus Norwich. West Ham were the better side. Areola was a passenger throughout the match. Did not have to make a save. Just routine catches of the ball. Also thought Fredricks was pretty good in moving forward. Should have scored a couple of goals. Was just greedy when he could have made a crucial pass to either Bowen or Rice. Overall the defence were not challenged too much. So hopefully Leeds will show up with a similar side and tactics next weekend.

Yep, Vlasic is getting better

Yep, Vlasic is getting better and better ,i think he'll turn into a pretty good player ,im just wondering was Lanz put out by being subbed off, i cant get over the improvement in him .
