Not troubling their keeper, just feeding him.

Good keeping from the BR keeper, nice cross collection from to deny Roofe

Blackburn the better team so far and deserve the lead, should be 2 probably. God knows that goal came out of nothing.

Berardi getting torn apart by Armstrong at right back, Dallas not doing much better at left back.

Very little creativity up too until the end.

Half time 1 1

Hopefully we are better second.

1-1 Missed the goal as no replays but sounds like great work from Beradi and Klich finishes

Saiz dinked it over, Berardi slid to knock it back across goal and Klich knocked it in

Never easy with those changes but I'm listening to the BR commentary and they have it about even...Always interesting listening to commentators that have no axe to grind and Alioski/Beradi and Klich are drawing the praise whereas they're not impressed with PJ..

Bielsa's in game tactical switches working so far ...Right to move Beradi to RB, he's having more luck against their outstanding player and Roofe offering more movement than Roberts up front

By process of looking for a decent working link I seem to have found the BR broadcast ...very interesting it is too. Fingers crossed it's back for the second half

The commentators said the move was more because Berardi was struggling down the left. Berardi at fault for the header from the corner too. Had a really poor game Imo and would expect ayling to go straight back in when bsck.

I too would expect Ayling to come straight back in but he's been v poor himself most of this season. Beradi will get high marks from me though unless he plays real bad second half.

Beradi better today than Ayling last 5 games and Beradi ain't a wing back

2/3 very poor clearances though, allowing BR attack at will plus I didn't like the hesitation allowing the ball to roll across his goal.. Bielsa ball can only work if the distribution out of defence is quick and crisp.
