I just don't buy in to the we cannot criticise the team and players argument.
That's what being a fan is all about. Yes, I think all of us appreciate that
it's going to be tough season. A lot of that team that turned out yesterday
have in some way struggled in the lower league - Dallas, Phillips, Cooper,
Klich, Bamford so it goes without saying that the transformation has been
incredible. However, as a fan now I'm looking to see who are the players who
can complete that transformation and perform with the best of them in the PL.
So when the game completely passes Philips by, like it did in the 2nd half I'm
going to call it. Especially when I think Philips is at best a decent
championship midfielder.
Also, how can these players who are struggling a bit keep an established
international striker out of the team ? It's crazy to play Dallas in an
advanced midfield role rather than Rodriguez and whilst Bielsa is a genius
we're not far from the relegation zone and fans have a right to say what they
think. Doesn't make them less of a fan.
II love watching Leeds at the moment however I'm not going to go through the
season keeping quiet when outplayed because hey, we have a team of championship
players that are over performing and doing their best.
So get a grip and stay on Twitter with Bielsa is God crowd if you don't like
what you read.

I’m finding the tone of the criticism of some of our players a little
dispiriting. Are they Champions League players? Probably not. But the
alternative to them is to bring in an entirely new squad at great risk and
expense. Personally, I’m proud of how well they’ve played so far, making the
absolute most of their ability at 100% commitment to our club. Yes, they’ll
slowly be replaced over the next few seasons as better alternatives come along
- but I don’t think it’s on to slag them off, as it were...
Let’s face it, if you’d offered us 17th on goal difference at the start of the
season we’d have at least thought about it. It looks like we’re going to do
better than that, so let’s give them credit for that.
