    they’ll be eating magic mushrooms, dancing round a bucket and sacrificing goats outside the stadium :emoticon-0100-smile

    I appreciate no one got to say goodbye but although I loved bielsa and what he did for us, I find this kind of thing touching but a bit sad in equal measures

    Hey each to their own if makes people happy.

    Yeah 2 extremes the die hard Bielsa fanboys and the ungrateful fkrs like a couple on here. Anyone who loves football must be proud to have seen what he did with our team and the football. Just dont get the guys who say so what, he was ok but we were shyt…

    Very risky strategy as so many at that age just don’t kick on.

    Yup. Orta just rolls out what he took from his mentor, Monchi at Seville. Buy young and sell at a profit. It needs excellent recruitment and as you allude to… a bit of luck.

    Given where we are and our lack of oil money, it’s probably the only way to grow. The question is whether you go ‘all-in’ with it. He has bought experience as well in the past… so I’m fine if they get the blend right. Devil in the detail as always!

    Middle for me too, I wish Bielsa well and I hope he does well at his new club, I also hope he puts offers in for Roberts, Forshaw and Firpo

    Not possible unfortunately Bilbao only allow Basque players.

    So Roberts could always visit Ann Summers and get himself a basque.

    Would be a hell of an introduction to his new team mates at Bilbao ;)

    If we set about him, we could make him a Bashed player. Would that qualify him?

    No? Then plan B is required - continue bashing, tso the club can claim 'injury-ended career' insurance. <whistle><yikes>

    perhaps after the disbanding of ETA, the basques will be more cooperative and allow the signing of our clubs ambassador for equality and diversity in as a sign of goodwill?

    if not he could tell them he once had a glass of Rioja

    Thats the same with Pablo as hundreds af Leeds fans now book holidays so they can see him play for Castelanos. All wearing Leeds shirts. If fans think someone has earned their respect they are heros in Leeds, anyone who doesnt……..

    Just had a scary thought, if Raphinha goes to a PL club as it stands he could be up against Firpo when we play against whoever he goes too…
