    [Albion] Deluded Leeds (an EFL club) fans

    Well, we are renowned for our poor form this season in front of other team's fans after all. Ahem.

    Well. That's sensible. And no fun at all. Have you not seen the thread title? Please play the game better.

    'Wouldn’t suit Bielsa’s style anyway. Great ability yes, but his overall workrate is not the best. He just coasts through matches like Zlatan. Better for Bielsa’s system would be Ronaldo and Levandovski because they have a higher overall workrate and track back. That’s my opinion' This IS...

    [Albion] Deluded Leeds (an EFL club) fans

    I think the point being made is that he'd have been very happy to stay at Leeds and also very happy to come home to Brighton. Either option is great for him right now. Since everyone seems to be speculating on what he wants, without any evidence whatsoever, I'll join in. I don't think he gives...

    [Albion] Deluded Leeds (an EFL club) fans

    My point! Guardiola and Klopp have LOVED playing against us. Our insistence on playing from the back, when we just aren't good enough against their attacking players, has been a gift to them and they're very keen to insist we should keep playing that way in future... Hopefully we'll see a...

    [Albion] Deluded Leeds (an EFL club) fans

    Did I not see one of them explaining that Utd, Chelsea and Man City are their rivals? Not us. Definitely not us. Just so it's clear. Anyway, when they are getting spanked on a regular basis playing their non-stop, high octane, free-flowing, out-from-the-back, 'band of brothers' style...

    Maybe he had another top over the bib, which he'd taken off? If I am using layers, my bib often goes over a short sleeved top and under the long sleeved one. It's a nice, albeit inconsequential, story and quite a sweet photo. I like Bielsa. He seems to be a good coach and an interesting...

    Indeed. For those that have made the (correct) decision not to bother reading it, Neville's Breakfast has provided a near perfect précis: 'the same old crap but longer'

    [Albion] Deluded Leeds (an EFL club) fans

    Whether it was the booze or not, we seemed to lose focus and missed out on the championship title as a result. It annoyed me. But it was a very small glitch in two otherwise fantastic Championship seasons in a row under Chris Hughton. We played superb attacking football. We went for...

    Ha. Whie I am enjoying the whole Ben White saga, and taking the piss out of Leeds, in this case my sympathy here is entirely with the 50+ year old f*ckwit. Sod the people in the big boat. Nobody should ever have that much money.

    [Albion] Deluded Leeds (an EFL club) fans

    Oh FFS. As we have established (endlessly) on this thread, he clearly didn't 'make' Ben White. I am interested to hear about Bielsa. I Iike unusual characters in the game and especially ones that are driven by things other than money and who have principles. But you undermine the story with...

    I also will be VERY interested to see how Bilboa get on in the Premier League next year. Personally I think they may struggle for a number of reasons.

    As with many of the Leeds tweets we are laughing at, I am not sure he is entirely serious! (surely..?)

    Ok, now I am impressed. Making Leeds the Champions of Argentina is quite a feat, for all kinds of reasons!

    [Albion] Deluded Leeds (an EFL club) fans

    I am sure Bielsa is a very good coach (although 'best in world' seems to be pushing it at this stage). And that is why he knows full well what he needs to succeed in the premier league. As he did in the championship. And he knows full well that he isn't actually magic, and cannot be successful...

    Jeez KW, don't bother! We are from BRIGHTON. Land of the out-of-work actor and aromatherapy entrepreneur. Where everybody is writing a novel (or something...'the structure is more free-form really, ya'). In a 'who's got the most pretentious fans' competition there is only ever going to be one...

    He's clearly Newport through and through. Why would he ever want to go anywhere else after that kind of support and adulation? It is clear that he bleeds (checks photo again) yellow and black.

    Errrmm, it was news to me. I don't really bet and have no idea how odds like that worked, so immediately thought the bookies might have information that he had refused to sign a new contract, or handed in a transfer request or something.
