Ayling, Berardi & Dallas were signed long before Orta became Director of Football in 2017.

Pablo also signed on loan a year prior to Orta's arrival.

Kalvin was on Leeds books from 2010.

You're right, though two of those were not very good till Bielsa got his hands on him. Dallas was an ok winger IIRC. I always think of Philips as a Bielsa lad.

They all improved significantly under Marcelo.

Bielsa made Dallas a better defensive type player than a forward.

Klich was on the verge of leaving Leeds until Bielsa took a good look at him, in a scratch team at a friendly match against Guiseley.

Truely incredible what his coaching did for Ayling, Coops, Berardi, Dallas, Klich & Phillips whose careers seem to be going nowhere!

I'll never forget that Stoke game & what was to follow.

Shouldn't we have a manager one as well

For the promotion season

[lufc1304]

That squad would have a very decent chance of keeping us up were it available to us for this coming season.

A foregone conclusion.

Especially those older players in their prime.
