Just a unimportant thing that annoyed me watching the match on sky yesterday. How pro spurs were the commentators? When Leeds were on top they seemed desperate for spurs to get back in it and then could hardly hide their joy when spurs were winning. I don't care if no one likes us but surely they are paid to be impartial?
Some guy on Facebook posted a picture of himself travelling back from Spurs first class on the train. Raphinha and Shackleton are poorly they will be back next week. Rodrigo doesn’t know how long he’ll be out for or Bamford. Bad news on the Bamford front is he gets pain in his ankle every time he starts to try light training, it sounds like he is a long way off a return. I guess the good news is Rodrigo was there, he was standing so surely nothing serious
I’ve seen enough of Firpo to realise he’ll never fit into this system. The more he plays the more glaringly obvious it is how much we’ve missed Alioski this season. That’s not to say he’s a bad player, but he just doesn’t suit our style of play at all. I’m amazed Bielsa actually okayed his signing.
Think you’ll find they play more as there are 26 teams in the Argentine Prem League and they also play a comp with the top 13 from the league, plus cup games and Copa America games
I stand corrected. I thought it was Tim Vickery the South American football expert on a documentary I watched said they played less matches when Bielsa won with them. That’s what started the “Bielsa burnout” myth.
