Guest Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 This Leeds love-in the last year or so. Sure Bielsa’s fun but I hate them. Don’t think they’ll do as well as people are making out either (see a few people thinking they’ll be around 8th). I don’t think they’ll be in any danger but can see them having a similar sort of season to our second one back up under Rafa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raconteur Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I haven't seen much more than highlights, but what really struck me was the video posted after they won promotion. The love and respect all of the players had for Bielsa was unfeigned, and inspiring that is no easy task. So I can't speak for his football, but he knows how to win devotion.

Judge Holden Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 He seems a character and has some entertainment value. Clearly a canny manager but I'm not sure where all this hype comes from from pundits, players & ex players about him being in the world class bracket. I don't really know much about him tbh, but looking at the clubs he's managed he doesn't seem to stick around for long or win much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stal Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 If this hasn't been mentioned as a pet hate already then; Pundits and commentators on who do absolutely no research whatsoever. It's obvious when they're phoning it in because they have a guaranteed TV slot regurgitating the same trite nonsense. And it's not just the current "Bruce is fucking mint, you're damn lucky to have him" bollocks we have to put up with, but generally across the board. If it's meant to spawn talksportesque like controversy then surely to stand out then surely you do the opposite now and actually be a professional. I know, there are exceptions. It's not insightful nor entertaining. We are in an age where we have search engines FFS. Use them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not insightful nor entertaining. We are in an age where we have search engines FFS. Use them. Aye a lot of them are stealing a living. Considering the amount of time they actually spend “at work” it shouldn’t be too much to ask to just look up some facts and stats, or god forbid, actually watch some live football matches before they spout utter drivel. One that keeps popping up that drives me mad is when pundits claim that Aubameyang would score a lot more goals if he was played through the middle. It’s obvious that his hold up play isn’t quite up to scratch for that role and that he actually gets more goalscoring opportunities when he can come in from a wide position. But the likes of Redknapp can’t see it cos they just think playing as a centre forward guarantees more goals. Cristiano Ronaldo is another similar example and he’s arguably the most famous player on the planet so you have to question how much football these chancers actually watch.

Wolfcastle Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 ^ yes. The really low quality of punditry and obvious lack of research (its only their extremely easy job after all) they do, is definitely the number one annoyance of late. This habit of starting an answer, response with "listen". I found Chris Waddle doing it a lot and sure enough Bruce does it regularly to. Seems overly aggressive initially but probably just ignorant and only rude via that. Think this stems from De Niro on Casino about to beast Sharon Stone "listen to me (thumps desk), listen to me you f**king c**t" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astroblack Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 No doubt. I do like the transfer podcast though. Dharmesh has such a low opinion of himself that the guest feels comfortable and talks and talks. The Sir Les one is great for this. A lot of time spent talking about his time here and the circumstances that led to his departure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's an honest, intelligent and convincing account of his time here, and of why ultimately we weren't successful. A great watch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafalove Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Feel bad for saying this but the bald lad from Newcastle fans tv. I don’t expect Shakespeare from a fan channel but I find his constant grammatical errors To be really annoying For example this tweet: https://mobile.twitter.com/NewcastleFansTV/status/1305074996088377344 “Wernt a bad player was @Alan Shearer“ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
