Leeds United dropped more points on Saturday after a 1-1 draw against Luton Town, and fans aren’t happy.
The sunshine might’ve been out at Kenilworth Road, but Leeds’ performance was anything but bright.
With a massive game against Middlesbrough coming up, supporters are now demanding changes and one man is right in the firing line: Manor Solomon.
Solomon Slammed After Big Miss
Leeds had chances to win it late on, but it was a huge miss from Manor Solomon that left fans furious.
In the 82nd minute, Dan James fired a low cross into the box, but Solomon blasted it over from just a few yards out.
That moment could’ve won the game for Leeds instead, it ended in frustration.
The Israeli winger, on loan from Tottenham, was expected to bring quality, but fans now think he looks nervous and low on confidence.
Many are calling for him to be dropped in the next game.
One fan even said, “Solomon has been atrocious. He needs a break.” Another wrote, “He’s not a £15m player. Jaidon Anthony is miles better.” A few fans even labelled him an “impostor.”
Stats Show Mixed Performance
While Solomon did some good things in the game, the miss has made everything else seem worse.
Here are some of his stats from the draw against Luton:
- 87 minutes played
- 68 touches, 26 passes completed
- 3 dribbles, 9 duels won
- 0 goals, 0 assists
- XG+XA: 0.57
- 7.4 FotMob rating
He was actually Leeds’ sixth-best rated player, but that key miss has stuck in fans’ minds.
Fans Want Farke to Make Changes
Daniel Farke called the result “a point gained,” but fans didn’t agree. Many believe it’s time to shake things up for the big away trip to Middlesbrough on Tuesday night.
With both sides fighting for promotion, Leeds can’t afford another let-down.
Supporters are now asking for Largie Ramazani or Willy Gnonto to start on the wing instead.
Some also want Brenden Aaronson to be used in the attacking midfield role to add more spark.
Big Decision Ahead
Farke now has a big call to make. Stick with Solomon and hope he bounces back? Or make a bold change to keep the promotion push alive?
Either way, the pressure is building and another poor result could cost Leeds dearly.
Kick-off against Boro is just around the corner. Will Farke listen to the fans?
