Walls are closing in
Rinse and repeat the points made after the Crystal Palace and Liverpool losses because Leeds United’s third consecutive defeat compounds an entirely unexpected disintegration in form. Again, cycle back to half-time in that Palace game and remember the quiet confidence inside Elland Road.
