    Sure, and not disagreeing with that, but that shouldn't affect Bielsa future (I'm fairly sure he can select and manage either kind of player). Not really disagreeing that there isn't a "story" atm, just that as a hard-bitten project manager, I know that forward loading any plan is the right course of action, rather than everything being back-ended, so get his contract sorted, steady-state coaching situation ready for the investment that will be required rather than the usual lastminute.com approach that has happened to Leeds often in the past .

    Think both Bielsa and the club know he is staying at least next season - just don't want any distractions - but I bet he is already telling Victor who he wants and who they CANNOT let go if he is to sign for another crack at this league.

    For all, we know the club already knows and is well into preparations for the coming season.Just cause they haven't officially stated anything doesn't mean anything. I believe after so many shocking seasons we finally have people that know what they are doing and i have faith.

    Agree with all that, just a happier bunny when it gets known a little more widely!
