Drop bamford for eddie and problem solved.

If your not willing to do this MB at least give them a half each.. the wee lad is on form and he must be pulling his hair out at MB not giving him a proper chance.

Must be quite a unique situation, no one calling for your head, yet highly critical of you, whether it be defeat, draw or those lucky wins we keep getting.

To put things into context we are 2nd in the Championship, 1 point of the leaders having won 1 more game than at the same stage as last season. We have never been below 5th with Bielsa in charge.

Is it really right to call for him to go? Would anyone else get the same level of performance from this group? Who would replace him?
One point from the top, but 5 points off mid table obscurity.

If something doesn't work, you have to change it

Marcelo Bielsa is the cleverest most studious manager we’ve had in modern times. Anyone who moans needs a spell in an asylum, we’re 2nd in the table, 1 point better than this time last year. He’s stated several times this season that we’ve learnt from last seasons disappointment therefore has anyone thought he’s timing the run in already? He’s making sure we’re there or there abouts and unlike last season when it came to the last few games and we completely ran out of steam we’ll be able to kick on and ensure 1st or 2nd place.
Have faith in him, just because we’re not destroying teams 9-0 every week we’re better placed than last season at this stage.

Cant see how he is timing a run 64? He isnt rotating players through the team in an effort to rest key players while bringing others in to sharpen others.
The fact he wants to keep a player in the side eg Dallas when his position isnt available does not fill me with confidence. It isnt as if we are short in midfield either.
