I think Bielsa from his comments knows this is an important game and a must win. If they throw the long ball at us and we don’t cope, every other team will do the same, we need to show to others it ain’t a weakness
Thanks for reminding us fans,We tend to forget the background staff,and the important job they are doing, as without them Marcello would find it a lot more difficult to do his job,this is another well done to Radz & Orta bringing in the complete set up in. This Club is going places, places we havn't seen in 20-30 years.
Morning Mike, and thank you for your praise. Huth would be a great signing. Surprised that the Leeds journo's Messrs Hay, Pope and Sobot have not jumped all over that - perhaps they are keeping tight lipped for a reason? Coincidentally, he was at the very bar that Vydra went to when he was spotted. Is 6m a gamble for Maddison? Jansson seemed to be off the pace a little bit on Tuesday night.
The Pouraliganji deal fell through for Leeds I'm afraid He was going to Trabsonspoor. Then Leeds came knocking. Then Trabsonspoor upped their interest, and made the player certain promises - and it looks like he's off to Turkey.
Morning Gessa, just like Foyth, Amos is very highly regarded by Pochetino. Amos is a mirror image of Phillips.
I dont think people are worried by what they see... they are flagging concerns raised that bielsa’s teams have a rep for flagging late in the season. If done properly they can last 50 games a season, then it implies in the past he hasn’t always done it properly. Let’s hope he’s learnt. The point about mental fatigue is true to a point, but there are physical aspects to it to. There’s a reason why most training programs recommend one light/rest week in 4. I believe they butchered them in pre-season to get them in tip top shape -which should serve as a great base - and have reigned it in now... but they need to take rest periods during natural breaks in the season... internationals etc, and to be periodically rested in between. Some will need it more than others, but you can’t peak for 40 weeks in any sport. I’m sure they’re professional enough to know their onions on all this... I’m hardly losing sleep... quite the opposite I’m belted up and enjoying the ride... but the concerns are understandable
Agree... no secret squirrel crap. You know what’s coming chaps... but can you stop it? Derby had a plan apparently. As mike Tyson once said... everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face.
This makes interesting reading, our assists to date so far. Pablo has played one less as well I believe? Hernandez - 3 Saiz - 1 Alioski - 1 Klich - 1 Douglas - 1
