Far be it for me to criticise Bielsa, but really, WTF??????
https://www.footballinsider247.com/w...elsa-at-leeds/
Is he WANTING to pi55 off our No.1 GK (who may I add, is the subject of interest from quite a few clubs and who might just decide he could do better (and be treated more fairly) elsewhere)?

France U21s manager Sylvain Ripoll on Thursday announced his squad for the final stage of the Euros taking place later this month so he's got a well earned early break and maybe a few days on the beach with his Mum in Lorient Brittany up the road from us.
Goalkeepers: Dimitry Bertaud (Montpellier), Alban Lafont (Nantes), Illan Meslier (Leeds United)
Defenders: Benoît Badiashile (Monaco), Colin Dagba (PSG), Wesley Fofana (Leicester City), Ibrahima Konaté (RB Leipzig), Dayot Upamecano (RB Leipzig), Pierre Kalulu (AC Milan), Faitout Maouassa (Rennes), Adrien Truffert (Rennes)
Midfielders: Houssem Aouar (Lyon), Eduardo Camavinga (Rennes), Maxence Caqueret (Lyon), Romain Faivre (Brest), Youssouf Fofana (Monaco), Boubakary Soumaré (Lille), Aurelien Tchouaméni (Monaco)
Attackers: Moussa Diaby (Bayer Leverkusen), Odsonne Édouard (Celtic), Amine Gouiri (Nice), Jonathan Ikoné (Lille), Randal Kolo Muani (Nantes)
Consistent with what he did for Klich and Koch too.
Yep, Meslier has been called up for the French team, every credit to the lad, fully deserved after keeping so many clean sheets this seasonQuote:

So Bertaud first, Meslier as "fill in", despite being the youngest Gk n the PL, the most competitive in the world, to achieve the most clean sheets, very complimentary. And playing in front of fans at ER against the Baggues wiyld be such a risk?Quote:
