Bielsa ball looking tremendously bog standard British. Would come as no surprise were they to lose it in the remaining 5 minutes.

Like that CD Ben White
Form is temporary; Class is Permanent!
Liverpool, European Champions 2005.

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

Nketiah ordered back to Ashburton. Surely the Lilies need investment in the window.

Breakdown reloading. Kitchen getting too hot for Bielsa. Brentford's BMW revving its engine.

Last chance saloon for Leeds, if El Padre doesn’t do it this year, he packs up and heads back to Kinder Buenos. Surely both long and short hands point to desperate, with units of measure much the same. Leeds need a centre-forward, a goal scoring centre-forward, Banford is a masquerade, the type to be unemployed at the start of Yam festival.

Between Pochettino and this geezer, they almost wrecked Spurs investment in Jack Clarke. Spurs collected Jack back from Leeds - sent him on loan to QPR under Warburton. He immediately got minutes versus Leeds in 1-0 victory for QPR!! Leeds can go siddon for gutter.

Two words. Bamford. Paddy Bamford. Goodness me, what a shocking display of penalty box squander. Leeds will pay for their misplaced faith in the flawed “far from” genius.

Lol. I'm surprised he's starting for him notwithstanding being a chelsea academy product. He's not good enough. Leeds has been steadily falling apart the last few games and about to drop into the dreaded playoff spots if care isn't taken.

And then you have that Casila goalkeeper who fooked them over last year. i heard he is still their number 1 choice and he fooked them over again yesterday. :rotf: :rotf:

remarkable how a coach who demands the highest can tolerate these two. Frankly, I think most of these old coaches have completely lost the plot and old age has gotten to them.

What underlies Bielsa’s unwavering faith in Pat Bamford. Unbelievable. With a tricky run-in and Brentford hot on their trail, this could be one of the most spectacular collapses.

many top coaches lose the plot in old age. Always sad to see them crumble due to age, stubbornness and inability to adapt.

The list is long... Benitez, Wenger, Mourinho, Ancelotti, just to name a few. truly sad.
