You know, one of my biggest fears from when Bielsa first joined that it wouldn't be the top brass that made him leave, or our results, but our media. Thankfully Marcelo is made of sterner stuff.

yes but I thought it was a delightful moment when he was asked what he thought of the new documentary and he said what documentary. He was not embarrassed or abashed at not having seen the documentary... he kept it real.

just goes to show where his priorities are. he leaves the propaganda to the journalists and just concentrates on getting the best out of his players and winning games

Yeah, these lice always kick people when they're down. He will have took that EFL cup performance personally and then they're narking him with X amount of questions about Kiko. Most of those questions were embarrassing.

First thing the pundit says on hearing it. "I think Bielsa will go 4-4-2"

They didn't say, just that he was injured

Bogusz onto the bench.

A Hernandez injury might push us to make a decision on De Paul

We lost Pablo after 3 minutes at Craven Cottage and it ruined our day, then he was the difference in the last match when he destroyed them.

Hope Rodrigo can shine now

Exactly, hopefully Radz will break into his last £billion note.

Radz went and told the world he had £50M left to spend so he may as well get on with it.

Though borrowing against future earnings doesn't exactly fill me with confidence
