What does Eddie have to do to earn a start?

Stuck at work all day today. So if you all would kindly do your usual fine job of commenting I would be most appreciative.

To be honest Cjay, I don't expect different results anymore, we're on a continuation of last season's path.

Doesn't seem to me that Bielsa is prepared to change or adapt to this league.

He's well respected in the game and on the terraces, but I've got to say that there will be a reason that, for all his genius, he hasn't really proven himself as a winner at the top level.

I hope these guys can prove him correct, but the only feeling I've had since Christmas is deja vu. It's like a broken record.

And that midfield has 2 players known for being all grit and determination but very poor end product.

Where is the creativity?

Berardi pretending to be a cb again.

Dallas as a cm (Bielsa clearly thinks he is a bargain basement James Milner).

He doesnt change teams, he doesnt change tactics, he has ultimate faith in his style.

Thats probably why he is so admired but imo its also partially why he hasnt won the trophies he probably deserved.

You have to rotate imo you have to adapt from time to time (unless you are the very best team in the world).

We hope for the best :)

I read that Pablo, had come off at half-time for the U-23s, due to his hamstring hurting.
