    No. A journeyman less than average footballer for me, but Bielsa knows far more than me so.....

    had a discussion with one of our posters about Bielsa and the view was he is very introvert and maybe a little Autistic or obsessive and cant let his ideas go.he keeps trying what we know will not work.he's a good coach but not ruthless enough for me.

    He apparently like to use youth so for the life of me I can't understand why he won't give Pearce a go. Our only other natural left back. I'd also be tempted to give Edmondson a go ahead of Roberts if Roofe isn't fully match fit. I can't make up my mind on Roberts, I don't think he is a poor player but he just doesn't seem ready yet for me.

    Why I ask ?

    He's not a defender
    Can't tackle
    He's not a winger
    Can't go pass players
    No pace
    His crossing is poor
    Not great in the air
    Rarely scores

    What does Dallas give us as oppose to young Clarke & Pearce ?

    Think the only conclusion is he doesn’t rate him. Begs the question as to why he had him as part of 1st team squad but there you go.

    My best guess is he thinks he has defensive frailties... which to be honest there were some signs of last year.

    True, but his defensive frailties can't be as bad as Stuart Dallas's?

    Guys
    The obvious reason is Bielsa will know more about the players than any fan on here who know Jack **** in reality......All above is just bull as a passing comment and not actual fact about the player as Bielsa sees him everyday and knows what he can do and he rates him......And that is all that matters......Wannabe who think they know more than the manager and coaches are deluded at the end of the day........Every team has them.....<laugh>

    Some want discussion, more don’t want any. Maybe it’ll get sorted in the coming weeks

    Oh I'm chilled London, had a great session with OLOF and his mates over in Dublin, while we watched the game. I've no problem with debate/discussion but it's always the same, lose a game moan moan moan. :grin:
