Brilliant Watson. Brilliant.

Bielsa rules.

No. It pains me to say it because I genuinely wanted Bamford to come good, but he hasn't and isnt likely to, so at best he comes on as sub. We start with Costa and Nketiah.

Who would you drop to keep Rocky Bamfoa in the side - Klich?, Pablo?, Costa? (assuming he now starts too).

Roberts looked sharp for the u23s tonight - so Bamford have to fight just to stay on the bench if the statisticians persuade Bielsa to play Eddie.

You are right.

It's a long season so we'll doubtless need both of them and probably Edmondson before it's over.

However, at this point, Eddie's clearly better. However, how much does bamford take out of them before Eddie comes in. Might be MB's strategy.

can't see playing them both only because we aren't strong enough defensively to leave the midfield open. MB asks a lot of his mid's.

Costa and Eddie must start, simple as, we all know it, we all say it, only we don't pick the team.

[Rev72]

As much as I love Bielsa he ain't half a stubborn b@stard!

Forgive me for suggesting that we should play our 2 strikers up front. Unheard off in football.

That's just it Billy, for all some of us might want for Bamford, he ISN'T doing what a striker should be doing, I.e. strike!
