In fairness I was excited we’d signed Casilla, I thought he looked decent for the first few games, he looked extremely confident and he did pull off some great saves, he was like a sweeper at the back. My first concern was when someone else pointed out his awful positioning at set pieces, got to admit they were a bit strange. Then the poor decision making crept in and we leaked goals. By the time we played Derby our entire back line looked like they had zero confidence in where the keeper would be or what he would come for and what he wouldn’t, he was also flapping at crosses in a few of the lead up games. Maybe a good GK coach and a strict set of instructions would make him a better keeper. If Bielsa is annoyed at his poor positioning I’m sure he’ll make him aware, if Bielsa is willing to put up with these kind of mistakes as it’s our style then I’ll fear for us.
Would've been unfair to include the playoffs as BPF wasn't part of'em either, I didn't fudge any stats. Kiko's record wasn't too bad for first 13 games considering he was thrown in at deep end, 2 draws and 4 losses; like I mentioned, it was the last 4 games the team fell apart. BPF had the advantage of the first half of season performances, but it was Bielsa who believed he needed replacing...... Bad performance against Estonia doesn't do him any favours after his comments and demands. Some fans comments. https://the72.co.uk/133982/leeds-un...eacock-farrell-performance-after-quit-furore/ https://thisisfutbol.com/2019/06/bl...rrell-display-for-northern-ireland-v-estonia/
The peacock is not a good keeper at this level. Kiko did some weird stuff but the guys in front of him were slow to tackle and chase back. Phil hay says we are after a keeper for no1 spot. Phil knows feck all as usual.

Everybody has him cast as heir to the throne, maybe that needs formalising by the club. Bielsa rarely stays anywhere longer than two years.
Why is it unfair to include playoff games, they were just as important as the league games if not more, the fact is, BPF had a better win ratio than the Clown The Clown cost us autos in my opinion
Just mentioned the both halves of the season to be fair to both. Would be unfair on Kiko to include playoffs...... BPF's stats come on the back of the team playing brilliant football in first half of season, Kiki didn't have that luxury.
Who is our goalkeeping coach, is it the same bloke who was our set piece coach last season and destroyed Felix? Could it be that the very good goalkeeper Kiko has been ruined by a keeping coach asking him to do something alien? Just asking for a friend
I think considering the absolute cluster **** Kiko made of it, it’s completely fair to include the playoffs
