The only people talking about Bielsa are the ones who wanted him out.
Un Marcelo Bielsa, solo hay un Marcelo Bielsa. Gracias Marcello. Marsching on together.

That doesn’t mean Bielsa couldn’t have too, and we’ll never know.

The football today was s**** until Rodrigo scored and the changes helped a bit.

Before Leon jumps in and claims historical preference, let me be the first to say that if that’s what Marsch-ball looks like next season, we’re screwed. :)
:clap: :clap:

I'll be the second.

The boyz pulled him out the shite again playing for their premier league/money lives.

Style? formation?

Well done Jesse and the lads :clap:

Ten points from 12 would indicate that Jesse must be getting something right.

We're still not completely safe, but very close to it.

If we can get over the line asap then Jesse will have the opportunity to take a look at more of the younger players and we can make frim plans for who needs to be moved on and where we need to strengthen.

As I said at the time, sacking Bielsa was the correct decision, it's facilitated us maintaining our EPL status.

I think today's performance showed why only Norwich are below Leeds and Watford for their passing accuracy.

We had that bit more quality than Watford which will see us safe until next season.

We desperately need to improve the midfield next season, another transfer window of excuses is not acceptable.

The negativity on here following a victory is remarkable. What on earth would happen if they’d lost. This site would melt down. It’s the shitty end of the season at the shitty end of the table. Winning is god. It’s always ugly down here in April & May.

We needed bielsa out sooner than he did. But Jesse has got us out of this mess thanknyou jesse
We would still be marking man to man which was a disastrous tactic.

We weren't pretty today but you can't argue with 10 pts from 12. Particularly after the pressure of Burnley and Everton winning their previous games before we played. So good on Jesse. I know it's not some of the scintillating stuff we have been treated to over the last few years but needs must and points make prizes.

Credit where it's due.

Fortnight to relax and hopefully see Burnley and Fat Fwank's lot drop some of their games in hand.

It must have been building up Leon, that's impressive. 😆
