Leeds United fell to a damaging 4-1 defeat at the hands of West Bromwich Albion on Saturday, and many fans have taken to Twitter to destroy Ezgjan Alioski for his performance.
The Whites struggled to break down a resolute Baggies defence despite having the lions share of possession, and paid the price in the second half as goals from Hal Robson-Kanu, Matt Phillips, Harvey Barnes and Dwight Gayle condemned them to a heavy loss.
Leeds fans have now been reacting to the result on Twitter, and many have singled out Macedonia international Alioski for a poor display on the left wing.

COMMENTARY
These Leeds fans are obviously less than impressed by Alioski’s performance, and you can see why. The pacy winger was far from his best against the Baggies, and his performance undoubtedly contributed to the manner of the defeat. As is the case with many of his performances, Alioski was flagged offside too many times and struggled to find the quality with his balls into the box. The Macedonia international is such a frustrating player to watch, with the 26-year-old looking unplayable at times but then so ineffective at others. That being said, he wasn’t the only Leeds player to disappoint, with very few actually emerging with much credit. The Whites were so wasteful with possession and their defence really struggled to handle the Baggies in that second half. Much improvement to be made after the international break, that is for sure, with Marcelo Bielsa sure to be disappointed by this performance.
Reflecting on yesterday, bad day at the office for LUFC, the manager may need a rethink about not spending in January.
Keeper, Dallas and Alioski were dire.— N Pearson (@NeilPea56396945) November 11, 2018

Alioski needs a spell on the bench like Saiz.
