Jesse already told Kalvin he will be playing the same role as he does for England with Rice and he says Kalvin is happy with that
I’m not saying he hasn’t but you don’t manage Argentina and “improve” a player. He clearly improved our Championship squad, I’m giving him the credit he deserves but at PL level it’s not so much about improving a players ability. Take both City and Liverpool no coach would take over their starting 11’s and improve their skill set, no at this level it’s about tweaking a system, picking players who already have the ability to best carry out your instructions. Spotting a weakness in your opponents and trying to counter it
I see where your coming from but listen to Crespo, Batistuta, Vidal, simeoni and many more worldies who all say Bielsa made them the player they became. So these top players and the likes of Mascarena all talk about Bielsa making them better. Pep even said this season that at club level in Europe Bielsa never had top players but if he had Man City or Chelsea he would never be beaten.even Messi speaks about the professor….
indeed he has. just my view but, for all the plaudits, I never thought kp looked that good for England as one of 2 dms. He Always looked better when rice went off. JM’s system is what the system is but I think we may lose/dilute some of kp’s strengths
Brazil confirm Raphinha will not be joining up with the National squad due to covid. Good it means Jesse has more time with his key players before Saints game.
When its confirmed we survive in the prem, why wouldn't the club show some cheeky ambition and sell the project to Alfies lad. Money not everything, born in Leeds, loves Leeds Utd as a fan, says he wants to play in the CL with Leeds, big mates with Jesse Marsch and speaks to him regular and remember Haaland played for Marsch and scored loads of goals under his leadership alongside Minamino?
I know but had a bottle of red on top of some pain meds seems to bring out the Karen Carney in me but I remember Radz saying we need to dream now and we could sign Cavani…
As usual Wakey knows more about football than idiots like Pep, Crespo and anyone else. Small warped self serving mind giving the people of Wakefield a bad rep mate. At least the Harrogate charmer had a bit more class fishing
Glory always had that element of credibility that he used to bait the hook with. Just throwing the line in, without even a hook, isn't going to lead to a big catch.
My only thought on that is Bielsa never went to / got offers to go to those clubs because he wouldn’t cope with the big day to day management of those type of personalities. Pontus and Pablo being examples.
