We asked for your thoughts after Tuesday's Carabao Cup second-round game between Nottingham Forest and Leeds United.
Here are some of your comments:
Forest fans
Ian: A much worse performance than Saturday's, I'm not sure Liam Delap will solve the problem. Not pretty to watch, no identity, lack of ideas, feels like a rebuild is needed rather than tweaking.
Graham: Nothing positive to come from last night, that was plainly obvious. Wood, Ousmane Diomande, Dan Ndoye, Xaver Schlager and James McAtee are not good enough. Oliver Glasner's tactics don't suit the players. We were too narrow and no bite up front.
David: The smiles have gone and the tactics of passing back, passing back and passing back to Matz Sels, before he boots it to the centre circle where our lone striker is outnumbered and no one else is there to fight for the second ball is simply not good enough.
Andrew: The worst Forest performance in over a year. Clueless players with little idea of what the playing plan should be.
Leeds fans
Bryan: The sleeping giant is starting to wake up. Never get enough credit from the pundits or press. This is great, they are creeping under the radar and will surprise all the experts this season. Will be classed as one of the strongest in defence in the Premier League and once they sign another striker, watch out top six, one of you will be losing your place.
Peter: This Leeds side could be really good with just a couple of quality additions in the forward areas as they are so wasteful. Dan James created so much and the players around him didn't anticipate his crosses.
Ali: Solid performances against Forest, but let's not get carried away. Still light in a number of areas (striker, left-back, winger, goalkeeper and attacking midfield) and these need reinforcing to be productive over a long season.
Alan: Excellent defensive display, the attack needs to sharpen up, James Justin's goal is a great advert to scrap VAR, in the league it would have been disallowed. Yet again, there is a great buzz around the club, but it's early days. Let's not get carried away.
