Javi Gracia wasn’t able to explain Leeds United’s second collapse in as many games on Monday night, but he’ll know changes have to be made this weekend. The head coach takes his Whites side to Fulham on Saturday and he’ll be desperately hoping his side can stop the rot and get back on track in their push for survival.
Gracia could only watch on last time out as his side offered next to resistance against the Reds, allowing them to find the back of the net with all but one of their seven shots on target. It was a miserable night defensively and it followed what was another hugely damaging performance and result against Crystal Palace just a few days earlier.
Improvement simply has to be seen across the field this weekend at Craven Cottage, but it’s fair to say the head coach will place a focus on a defensive line that has conceded 16 goals in their last four games. He does have options to tinker with personnel and it wouldn’t be a surprise to see an overhaul at the back.
