You can only beat what’s in front of you, but they were truly woeful.

I know they have a load of injuries, but tactically that was completely inept from Bielsa, you just waltzed through them 1st half. 2nd half you took the foot off the gas otherwise it could have been another 7.

He’s another one of these ‘my philosophy’ comes before anything types imo. If they don’t adjust and try to grind out a few results, they could be sucked right into it. Only the Geordies have conceded more goals than them now.

What he did for us to get us in the PL was superb with that squad of players but his stubbornness which got results then is what's costing us now, you can get away with it in the Championship but not up against some of the best coaches In football, injuries obviously haven't helped the cause but the tactics the last 2 games have been ridiculous

One of the most versatile and underrated players in the league for me. Will play anywhere he’s told to and always leaves everything on the pitch. A truly cracking pro imo.
He's a useful squad player who does a job and doesn't moan. He's like Milner.
He's not like Javier Zanetti, though. It's like comparing Raphinha with Ronaldinho.

Certainly not the player of the last 3 seasons but has off field problems which look like they have carried over on to the pitch this. A great pro.
