Wanton disregard for the magic of the FA Cup. Decent strength side too. Slowly the media are beginning to question the madness.

Goodness me, anyone watching Newc-Leeds. Absolute madness. Can’t believe much of what Leeds are doing is trained or rehearsed. Reckless at times. Near self-sabotage. Bielsa is going bananas, the whole bunch, on the bench.

3 points in the bag, but crikey, Bielsa must've kicked both boots, cones and kitbag in the dressing room. Leeds were a mess in the second-half. 14 shy of the safety securing 40-points mark, 'tis unlikely they'll be relegated, but highly likely they'll be in a pseudo-relegation battle, with the dogs of that dogfight all but already doomed. Yesterday there midfield was non-existent, on countless occasions, Fabian Schaar strode out of Newcastle's backline like the second coming of Phillipe Albert, carrying the ball like a feint and dash quarterback. Unopposed. Leeds were lucky, very lucky.

He may be ok as an international manager but As a club manager, this guy is so overrated.

Good choice. He would have relegated them.

The next step is to sack their director of football, Victor Orta. Very passionate man, who clearly loves their club, but he is a horrible director of football. The day he spent 30 million on Rodrigo, I knew he was worthless. And then his inability to find a proper goalkeeper, having been given 4 chances to get it right... he ended up with that mumu looking boy, Meslier. :lol: :lol: :lol:

The only way for 9ja Eagles to finally beat Argentina. :thumbs:
The problem is the NFF would drive Bielsa crazy and vice versa.

I have some sympathy for the guy. Leeds will get relegated. I see some of their fans are calling the guy a stubborn poor manager. Ok o!

Our players will collapse on the pitch, Iwobi that cannot last 60 minutes will come and press under African sun? By the 13th minute, they need 7 stretchers to carry our players out :rotf: :rotf:

lol . is that a lie? is he not stubborn? Are they supposed to keep their mouth shut or lie because the man saved them? Only Spurs fans (in relation to Levy) and Nigerians keep their mouth shut and lie to themselves in the face of the obvious. Speaking the truth does not mean you hate someone or that you are trying to disrespect them.

The players did not fail him. One of the things I have noticed about you on this forum is that you are poorly educated about the things you speak about. Your knowledge is severely lacking.

Leeds are where they are PRIMARILY because of injuries. Players cannot play if they are injured, in case you dont know.

The SECONDARY problem is Victor Orta and his poor ability as a director of football. Look at his purchases, even Dan James, they spend tens of millions for that one.

Finally, due to Bielsa's ability to raise the game of certain players, Leeds actually have a team of several division 2 and division 3 players! no kidding! :lol: Do you know Luke Ayling? The division 4 player who is playing outrageously above his capacity? Or Division 2 Suart Dallas and Liam Cooper and Klich? Or is it that division 3 child, Gelhardt, they just bought from Wigan last year who is leeding their line? :rotf: :rotf: This is not playstation. Players cannot give what they dont have.

Instead of Orta to help hide those issues the div 2,3 and 4 players have. He was spending money on summerville, Messlier, Firpo and Rodrigo. :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: All these while their top striker was that horrid sh11t player, Patrick Bamford. :rotf:
