OP
OP
Bielsa is quality and has essentially highlighted the absurdity of Derby crying about somebody watching them train for a bit by slamming down a dossier that his team have compiled on all FIFTY ONE games that Derby played last season, right down to the individual minutes each player still in squad spent in each position and the types of play they instigated when in those scenarios.
The "it's not the way we do things in this country" brigade can fuck off, especially all the weasel ex-players coming out of the woodwork (Pearce, Collymore, Keown etc.). No, it isn't. It's of a far, far higher standard than anything we're used to in this country. If they want to get on his level then they better start working a lot fucking harder. Now leave him alone and let him get on with getting Leeds back in the Premier League, a magnificent achievement which no doubt will be overlooked thanks for spygate.

I'm pretty sure that both United and City have installed blockers at their training grounds so that its harder for people to spy on their training sessions - Klopp was talking about making sure that was possible at Liverpool's new training ground too, which obviously wouldn't be necessary if it wasn't already a thing in the UK
The people saying "its not the way its done in this country" are the same gammon pricks who blame foreigners for diving too, both accusations are total bollocks
It's just a slow week. No mega transfers yet, no real news stories. The fact spygate is so central means there's nothing really to pick at with any of the bigger clubs right now - Mou literally is a perfect example of this.
Add to that any attention away from football this week is likely to cause an even greater sense of apathy than usual for a number of our regulars.
Nah, its fucking dead. We'd go through 10 pages a day, lucky if we do that within 2 weeks now.
Yissss
He's come a long way, well played to the lad. I hope the purse is handsome and he can buy a castle or two.
Brilliant! Fucking get everyone we need on lockdown! Alisson and VVD signed for the long term, we've got youth players extending contracts, Hendo, all the front three, and now Robbo. This comes with the news we're letting Moreno and Sturridge run there's down and look elsewhere. This squad is almost unrecognisable from Rodgers.
It'll sell papers/get clicks. That's all the justification they need.
Don't worry, they'll print an apology in a footnote somewhere 3 weeks time.
And those Tory cunts said we didn't need Leveson. Pricks.

I've long said that any apology should take up the same space and prominence as the article about which is was apologising for. You lead your front page with a false story, be prepared to apologise on the same page. I'm all for a press press, but these cunts are allowed to get away with some crap.
I'd go with that too; take the equal size and space used for the article to explain how and why said article was written and edited, otherwise even the backhanded apology completely sidesteps any and all onus on the journos responsible for putting out that shit.
Like that's ever fucking happen though.
Having Gini is massive. Please be fit. 10 day break to Dubai after Palace with everyone back fit would be amazing. Hearing Trent's injury is not that big, back in 2 weeks potentially
I'm reading the rules changed a few months ago, so they didn't violate them, but also that Levante will file a complaint.
Oh shit, people leaking scenes from 'Far From Home' already?
BUT FREEEEEEE SPEEEEEEEEEECCCCCCCHHHHHHHHH
The papers did cry this last time something like this was muted.
They are daft cunts. You're free to say whatever you like. But if you're wrong you have to apologise especially if 4 million twats read your shitrag every day. Shocker, more might have to print facts.
I know people are probably fed up of Spygate now but I had to laugh when after Bielsa's conference some managers and ex-managers were claiming his preparation his nothing out of the ordinary. Lampard, Mowbray and even Dean Saunders saying they all do it. Aside from missing the point, Bielsa wasn't bragging, just pointing out how watching the opposition train doesn't tell him anything he doesn't already know (it eases his anxiety), they have now being shown up again by Guardiola's comments.
When what they should have done is what Nathan Jones at Stoke has said:
Even putting aside the fact I'm biased because Bielsa is our manager and I love him he is someone who has been credited as a key influence by Guardiola, Pochettino and Simeone among others. Why would a coach, especially a young one, not want to take the opportunity to learn from him instead of dismissing or talking down his methods?

Yep, though I'd lean towards March for Ox, purely because even with the rate of recovery blowing everyone's expectations, he won't be even close to being on the form he was in last season, at least medically speaking. Also, him reappearing is gonna give have a massive effect on the squad, he was loved in the dressing room so I hear, so as our fixtures start to crank up in March, having someone like him to add a bit of buzz around could be vital.
Is this him saying that Trent is very close for the game tomorrow? I know he's not gonna play regardless, but this means it could just be a 1 game miss as we have 10 days after tomorrow before Leicester.
