No he got banned from ja a few years back... not sure what site 1964white runs/moderates but think he went there
The man’s a genius. Other managers have hidden from the opposition what their best team is, but Southgate can hide it from himself with this strategy.
I thought he was banned from there long ago? *Edit* Should have read further down before hitting reply
Entering that young side in the cup tonight was a disgrace. What the hell was the point of entering just to humiliate the young players. You fecking idiot bielsa obsessive to a fault.
Oh christ i hope saturdays post's on here are not going to read as today's #56 - #81 post's i am gonna have nightmares tonight with that scenario . g'night all
exactly my point, in these days of espionage and meticulous planning his strategy is faultless. Even bielsa with his binoculars would learn nothing from watching us. You could capture Southgate, torture and interrogate him and discover nothing meaningful about his plans or best 11. ...and yet people mock him
jeez este... I might not be the sharpest tool in the box but even I’m not stupid enough to steal shako’s ale. You’ve see how angry he gets if someone disses elvis - imagine being the guy caught in possession of his tinnies?
Reason Bielsa used schoolboys tonight against AS was simple: when the team comes back they cannot join the Leeds Utd bubble they have to be segregated. Bielsa needs the U23s to help him prepare the first team for Liverpool
How does the bubble differ from players returning from International duty it makes no sense? Bottom line is it was a poor decision by the club to enter in the first place
Will there be an issue with us fielding a team of kids? We all know the powers that be look to penalise us at every opportunity. Was it particularly because it was against Accrington because other teams seem to have fielded stronger U21 sides?
Think the fact 2/3 of our team got called up for internationals fooked us up. Disgraceful just when we need to get a pre season in, Philip's won't be back with the team till Thursday, just 2 days before ko, all about the F A getting their cash in
It's because Bielsa wants a full on game U23s v First team tomorrow and didn't want to risk the kids so played u18s, next 2 games will field a stronger side.
