    Big ugly sides able to match them for bland, unskilled hump it into the box football. They might concede few but they won’t score many either <ok>

    Cardiff - 2016/17 - Replaced their manager with an experienced championship manager not know for his football style. 2017/18 they finished 2nd playing effective football.

    Pity Pablo was injured. I think his creativity might have just made the difference in that game. At least the two week break should see him fit again

    Me too I’d have took him and I still would over Heckingbottom or Thomas but now I’ve had a taste of Bielsa they can keep him.

    Assombalonga built like a heavyweight boxer, goes down at every opportunity, you can see they are going to rely on set pieces and height.

    We might have just screwed their season, Villa, Brentford, WBA and Swansea will all be watching how we defended against those giants and what we did well and they might try a rinse and repeat job.

    Interesting we missed Pablo (and would miss Saiz) so that's who Bielsa looks to have been most interested in replacing with Issy rather than a centre half. Still not sure who's best option for covering Kalvin though.

    He come over a bit anti Leeds I thought, might be just me reading more into it but the Sky commentary team are biased, never really jumped on that bandwagon before but it was evident tonight.

    Douglas should have been red they said, fair enough, Ayala however hardly a word said.
