We just sit off and drop our intensity when we get ahead. It must be on instruction

So many games where we've been in their faces, looked good, scored a goal and then just sat deeper, stopped pressing and abandoned the tactics that had been working so well.

Its extremely frustrating.

If Wagner thinks we can go to Leeds, sit deep and keep them out for 90 minutes then he's an idiot because we don;t have any good defenders. The full backs are good players but defending is not their strength.

I fear he does think that as he seems obsessed with telling us how he did it before with Huddersfield so he's experienced when it comes to playoffs.
