Leeds United fans were frustrated as they lost 1-0 to bottom of the league Birmingham City on Saturday, and knew which player had let them down the most.

Leeds supporters vented on social media about Kemar Roofe’s performance, as the striker failed to grab a goal in order to get them any points from the game.

One fan believed the Whites weren’t playing the right style in order to aid Roofe, with another being less forgiven and simply labeling his performance as diabolical.

The Whites were confident ahead of the game as they had recently moved in to the play-off places after several successful results, but Birmingham City were able to cause an upset.

Birmingham City scored in the 84th minute as Jacques Ilonda Maghoma tapped home a rebound, after Felix Wieldwald had saved Jota’s original curling effort.

Supporters opted to not blame Wieldwald’s failure to clear the danger after making the save, as they slammed several players for their poor performances upfront.

In particular, it was Roofe that got a lot of the blame as he led the line, with one fan  believing it was just another awful performance from him.

Roofe has been a regular for the Whites, playing 24 games across all competitions and scoring 10 goals.
