Bielsa making another rival manager look like a genius

Another cross another corner.

WHY THE f**k DO YOU HAVE POVEDA ON THE BENCH WHEN THERE'S ZERO CHANCE OF HIM COMING ON. Bielsa having a stinker today, or is he still learning stuff?

Why no more changes?

Was the style really so important that Augustin couldn't do 15 minutes like now?

Please someone tell me what Harrison does apart from defend. His final ball along with everyone else today is woeful.

No idea..I expect those who "understand" these things will be along to explain why it's not a bad result later

Oh that's an easy one, he creates chances in the main, should be on 20 assists plus, clever footballer and worries defences that they have to triple team him ..

Because he's reactionary. Poveda on the bench, Kevin doing a few laps around Thorpe Arch, it's a dark comedy.

This has been dire and facts speak for themselves, 2 wins from 8?,

MB has done great things but he is so stubborn it does cost us at times.

This is one

Bottled it again today. Fcuking Wigan again. Cue bielsa to say that we should have won and didn't take our chances.

He needs to do something different or we're going to blow it again. But he wont

Impossible to say what comes next.

Awful at the back, toothless up front and an intransigent manager running them into the ground.

Hopefully this will be the catalyst to spur Bielsa on to shaking things up.

All set for the Phythagoras post match conference.

Percentages, that's all irrelevant, it's only the result that truly matters and is concrete.

Rinse and repeat.

Don't take chances

Cant defend set pieces

MB for all we love him should have had JKA on the bench and he should have thrown on Poveda and Shacks because why not?

We were losing playing players who understand the system so what we got to lose by using players who maybe don't yet?

Ideals are great but points matter in the end, that's [probably where MB and fans differ.
