I don't agree with you. We don't have any better in that position when it comes to creating chances and goal contribution. But agree he's been poor tonight.

Cooper has all the things in his locker that Pato is missing and has been missing from the day he arrived

Yates is more powder puff than Paterson!
I think any keeper would look ordinary playing behind as high a line as Williams insists on

Well, I know you are idolising Cullen and Cooper, but the sad truth is none of them is good enough. We need better than Yates, Cullen, Paterson, Cooper...

Still, he has to be more proactive.
For sure, though he's probably shellshocked at this point

Is he shellshocked every time he plays?

Yes he's been poor but that's because he's had virtually no service to speak of. Yes there was a high cross in that was slightly behind him, so he tried to head it back to an incoming midfielder. Of course there wasn't one. He performed our only decent action when he cushioned a header back to Pato who somehow managed to blaze it over the bar. Had the situation been reversed Cullen would probably at least have got his shot on target.
You can't blame a striker for having a poor game when his midfield is virtually non-existent. When he does get decent chances he usually makes the most of them. Not always but then no striker is infallible.
We can't do that because we don't have the pace to play like that. Ronald is the only individual with any pace to speak of and we have absolutely no pace whatsoever as a team. We are getting stuffed by a team with better players and a FAR better manager. Williams is limited and it's really starting to show.
Every time he plays he gets to watch a doormat and a revolving door in midfield fail to protect two centre-back-shaped shadows from the opposition. This entire season is turning into Carl Rushworth's long dark night of the soul
Maybe so but I still think that Cullen is good enough for this team. Unfortunately we don't have a midfield worthy of the name. They don't support in attack; they create very few chances and they don't help the defence. Imo the whole lot of them are stealing a living. Hell, they don't even look fit!!!

Poor tactics yet again , a high line against Leeds is suicidal.

We won't get anywhere as long as we have passive strikers like Yates and Cullen in our starting XI. Piroe doesn't wait for others to create chances for him. He creates chances for himself by dropping deep, by making himself available to receive the ball, by being involved in the build-up much more than Cullen and Yates... Although I agree that Cullen is much better at the build-up than Yates, it's still not enough.
