Still so many pundits and media personnel claiming that the Leeds players will hit a burnout period in the second half of this season due to the high intensity pressing.
Leeds went through a 46 game season before with no burnout, ok there was a pause due to c.v. as Ms. Carney and others have highlighted, but I have listened to interviews with Ayling and Bamford both denying they or the squad suffered from excessive fatigue.
I think Bielsa had some problems with players suffering from excessive fatigue at Lille and Marseille, i imagine this was more to do with the French players not wanting to push themselves too far with the heavy training regimes. Lazy gets!

The best answer to these 'pundits ' nonsense will be for the lads to prove it on the pitch.

I don't think there will be any burnout at all from the Leeds players.

We didn't lose the playoffs two years ago due to burnout, it was silly errors and nerves that did it. Up to that final half we matched everyone stride for stride.

Exactly Alf, that burn out stuff was rubbish! One bad night at the end! Unfortunately no second chance at that stage!
Also I have a slightly different theory atm, not sure if anyone agrees? I believe that the players are missing the intensity of matches compared to the previous 2 seasons!
Especially after a defeat having to dwell on it for 7 to 10 days is not great! I don’t even think Klich has been tired.
I think a dip in form, definitely, but not tired! Their bodies are probably benefiting from less games but not necessarily form and rhythm! Just a theory 🤔.

No burnout problems. More media tosh.

Its only 3 games. Spurs i wouldn't have thought we would beat anyway, Crawley was more like a friendly so doesn't count and Brighton we played badly and had a carp pitch so out of the 3 I would have expected to do better against Brighton but can't win em all so not sure what the fuss is about really.
