Leeds United's players struggled in their duels with Hull City, lacking desire in tackles and ball retention. Hull City became the first team this season to have more possession than Leeds at Elland Road. Despite this, Leeds remains unbeaten at home.
Weakness from Leeds United ’s players in their duels with Hull City was one of the big problems they suffered on Monday night. Sam Byram’s assessment suggested they needed to show better desire in the tackle and then retain the ball more efficiently too. The Tigers were the first opponent this season to come to Elland Road and see more of the ball than the hosts. Liam Rosenior’s side ended the night on 57 per cent possession, but were above 60 per cent going into half-time.
Byram feels their East Yorkshire neighbours were right up there with the best sides to have visited LS11 this term. United are, of course, still unbeaten at home this season
