Andy Hinchcliffe branded Leeds United's performance vs Middlesbrough 'not good enough'
Sky Sports pundit Andy Hinchcliffe delivered a withering assessment of Leeds United's performance in their Carabao Cup loss to Middlesbrough. It was a chastening evening for Daniel Farke 's men as they bowed out of the competition at the first hurdle.
Hinchcliffe said: "I think in the first half of this game he will be disappointed with 66 per cent of possession and the lack of attacking threat was a worry. But in the second half, it is the way they collapsed individually and collectively. Just not good enough." Whites chief Farke took full responsibility for their below-par showing. He rotated his starting line-up, making eight changes, and felt a "poor" 20 minute period in the second half cost them dearly.
"Yes, right now this is not the ideal start to the season. Portsmouth was a special game and Middlesbrough had nothing to do with our normal organisation or with the performance of individual players. It had to do with many, many changes and this happens sometimes.
