Silver Fox My main concern would be that their annual choke is coming a bit early this year so Bielsa has a chance to right the ship before it gets away from them. At least he would have a chance if he wasn't an absolute charlatan
Interesting* inteview with Pontius Jannsson ahead of tomorrow's match where he said that he and some of his teammates were just mentally shot towards the end of last season - phyisically most felt fine but the style Bielsa demands just knackers players out mentally so they make more mistakes as the season goes on i.e. not defending quite as well, missing chances they would have taken 2 months previously.
They have plenty of time to turn it around but you can see them struggling tomorrow and Bristol City will fancy their chances - we could easily head there with them on the back of 4 straight defeats or 1pt/12pts before handing them a comfy 3 points to get back on track.
