He has shored up the defense... whether by luck or chance through injuries. I struggle with Bijol sitting but generally agree with his moves to make us a difficult team to score against at this level and not park the bus which he does not.

However, I do think that Farke is a better fit for our current squad than AP.

Just my 2 cents.
why is it in defense we are losing games if his shored it up Spaldy? Teams know they can go around bogle and straight through Pat. Managers work teams out but ours says out in the open players not playing should be patient as he picks each 11 on opposition but yet plays the say 11 over and over. The left winger only got a game cause of injuries now looks better than the ones he replaced. Bielsa and the Yank were the same and look how they end up. F me give me Sam any day of the week in 4 games he transformed us but was too late. Wish they appointed him when they appointed the Spaniard we would have stayed in the premier league.
