    Leaves stewardship & care...

    Not ownership.

    Could someone please tell me why Bielsa trains his players to fail to pass the ball 10yds in a straight line? Relentlessly too!

    Damn near kills me when he trains them to hit corners to the first man a set pieces. Unintentionally. The list goes on. What has Bielsa done to our team?

    Imagine! A coach who can't get a professional football team to do the basics. Of course the man must go! Get Big Sam in to teach them how to hump the ball up the park & hope one of our lads gets to it first. Got to play to our strengths, haven't we? Well, once we find one.

    It's shyte mate and when the crowd reacts it's their fault. I can honestly see one day a fan running on the pitch and twatting a referee.

    I got a message saying he'd been sacked, had left in tears and a board meeting was to be held tonight. I wasn't sure what to believe but the rumours are building up so it feels like he's gone. I still didn't want him to go regardless.

    Hmm not so sure, but you could be right?, however looking at Watford and Roy Hodgson, Watford not the whipping boys they previously were, i think it's something like three clean sheets out of six games, and five or six points since he's been in charge, heaven forbid i would not like Roy, but just pointing out that a quality sound minded coach can make a difference.

    Nah, just being sarcastic. Everyone is going in for the kill on Bielsa, but when he leaves, he will still leave behind our incompetent playing staff.

    Professional footballers who can't do the basics are not Bielsa's fault. They clearly do it in training ok, otherwise they wouldn't get selected. Then they cross that white line on match day & play like they're back at school again, only less skilful. That's not Bielsa's fault. The players should be ashamed of themselves.

    In general yes...but not all the players.

    Bad day at the office today and we now need a week on the training ground to come back fighting next Saturday.

    Ps; anyone who thinks all they do is murderball is an idiot.

    They are the same players as last year by and large, we have overpaid on a couple of the signings, it is scandalous that we have an injured forward and only 1 viable replacement and that being a young kid who hasn't been utilised to the full, the other coaches have found us out and we can't change course because bielsa only knows one way and it's not working.....can an interim coach give us the hopeful bums rush of a couple of wins or its stick with him and hope we survive...ladies and gentlemen its stick or twist
