You don't rate Harrison? You've never mentioned that before? What about Roberts or Bamford? Costa isn't here anymore, but what do you think of him? I don't think you've mentioned that in any of your posts in the last couple of years.
Criticism of the players' form and performance is fair enough, but to call them only championship standard is a huge exaggeration. Koch is a German international, Rodrigo is a Spanish international, was Spain's first choice striker when we signed him, and played 6 years in La Liga for one of the biggest clubs in Spain. Firpo has played in the Europa and Champions Leagues and was one of the best LBs in La Liga 2 years go. He was good enough for Barca to spend 40m on. James did ok at Man Utd, and he's done well on the few occasions he's actually played on the wing, and not up front
You trying to be funny or are you just plain sarcastic when I`m pointing out what I and many Leeds fans have been saying.
If you care to read my message I was talking about Bielsa`s recent signings not performing.
Yes Koch and Rodrigo both played international football.
Koch is injury prone and Rodrigo was Spains centre forward until Bielsa made him play midfield.
Now he can`t score.
Firpo might have been worth 40m when Barca signed him but I doubt anyone would pay half of that now.
You`ve seen a lot of James`s games for MU then Jack?
Friend of mine a MU season ticket holder says he was pretty rubbish along with a fair few MU supporters who thought the same.
We needed a midfielder not another winger.
Yes I have been banging on about the poor quality for most of this season.
But as I have said I`m on about the signings Bielsa made recently i.e last couple of years or so.
Your love in with Harrison has not gone un noticed though.
I`m sure he will play his one good game in 10 soon.
But each to their own hey Jack.
