Really great set of posts on here past couple of days. I am usually in the Bub can do no wrong and rose tinted glasses firmly in place. However, today feels worse than yesterday to be honest and the nagging question for me that just won’t go away;
Why does he not give Edmondson a go? It makes no logical sense, Bub has used more untried talent this year than last year, Stevens and Casey being a case in point. If the management don’t rate Edmondson why does he occupy the main striker role in the U23’s, if we are never going to give him a run it’s a total waste, as somebody Bub does rate should occupy that position surely!
In reality goals is the thing we miss the most, that and height our corner conversion rate is woeful and a unit like Edmondson must help improve it. How can Bubs apologise to Robbie Gotts for not playing him sooner, hoping he doesn’t leave but never ever references young Edmondson who has gained international recognition and is top scorer for his U23’s.
Need stronger tints in my glasses obviously!

Totally agree Class on Edmondson ( who is a natural goalscorer)
. for Bielsa to again not pick Edmondson and ridiculously again have no striker option on the bench when Edmondson is available. well. Bielsa is certainly flawed. and a master seemingly of snatching defeat from tbe Jaws of victory.
. next 2 weeks crucial in transfer window and hopefully Bielsa can cure this malaise.

good post
i am by far the most negitive on here and get a lot of stick for it. what's annoying is we can see it all coming. In reality it was just one result but it is far bigger than that. it is two years of the same problems not being fixed and some problems are worse now than they was last year
never been a belisa fan. not my type of manager and think his problems outweight his wonderful qualities. he will manage a side that plays nice football and falls short. last year was a league record in throwing it away. this year could follow suit but playing nice football papers over the cracks and makes some fans give him benifit of the doubt.
said before he is a paper manager. looks good in books, other will read it adapt it and make it work. but in reality on the pitch it ain't going to work
i tounge in cheek call myself the orical. what makes me angry is at the moment belisa looks like making me right. i hope he changes things and makes me look like a right mug that's a better fit for me over the orical.

Agree about Edmondson. He should at very least be on the bench. And miesler should be in nets next week. After his showing against arsenal. And Kiko going to be out anyway. Put the young keeper in. And start with bam
Bam and Edmondson up top. Give other teams done thing too think about. As they sure won’t be expecting two up top . c'mon Marcelo. Open your eyes man. Everyone can see what the problems are. Why can’t you. ? 😬😬.

Yes Batty . its got to the point where I want the FA to actually
ban one of our own players (Kiko) for him to be out of the team
Kiko let's in a very high percentage of shots on target . sorry . but he is a serious liability. he cost us last season and not good enough this season
Drop Kiko Play Meslier but doubt Bielsa will do so. another one of Bielsa faults in persisting with underperforming players.
