You're obviously in the Roberts is championship and shouldn't be playing which is fine because to be honest he's done little to prove you wrong however I can see a good player waiting for the chance and he took his 'goal' very well the other night and I feel he needs a chance playing in his intended position. He's quick, good control, good in the air, good shot (ok not always on target yet) and plays some very clever passes. He'll make it. > I don't care how well he's done this season that's all in the past. He's > hardly scored this year and I think we need a goalscorer. >Every game, by definition, is in the past.

Yeah, you're right, it's pointless arguing for Bamford to be droppeed because he's banked the goals and can do wrong. Bollox. He's missing chances, easy chances and he's done this in the past. At this level that will cost you games and I think just picking him because he scored a lot of goals last year would be wrong. Obviously he has no competition at the moment cos Bielsa foolishly believes both Roberts and Rodrigo are no 10s which is just wrong in my eyes. Rodrigo has played centre forward for Spain FFS ! > I am concerned that Bielsa sees him as a better no 10 than Pablo and feels he > can start ahead of Rodrigo ? >Don't be concerned because he doesn't.Rodrigo had been out for 6 games so it >makes sense to give him half an hour in his first game back with a view to a >start instead of Roberts on Saturday if Bielsa feels he's come >through OK. Oh yes, the needs to be eased back in argument. Well, why did Philips not get eased back in ? He didn't even play in the U-23s whereas Rodrigo did and bagged a brace.

We are Leeds, anything is possible and we need another couple of wins. _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: https://mailman.gn.apc.org/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org Find us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/leedslist/ Rest in Peace Guy, and wear your hat! _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: https://mailman.gn.apc.org/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org Find us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/leedslist/ Rest in Peace Guy, and wear your hat!
