So when did he actually say “I’m frustrated”. I’ve seen the video. Maybe I missed it?

First you think linking up with another club fit possibility of a loan didn’t means player, now you think a player saying he’s disappointed being on bench and that he thinks he should be playing is not frustrated.

Why is the bleeding obvious always just out of your reach?

So you admit he never said he was frustrated?

If that’s not putting words in his mouth what the hell is?

Saying that he’s warning Bielsa....

I think if a player is happy on the bench than they're there only for the money, you know, we've had lots off those these last number off years!..

Him saying he's not happy on the bench, is there not other players on benches world wide not saying exactly the same?..

Even under 21's and 17's will be the same!..

He's a young professional footballer that has a good trainer doing things the way that just might be better for him!..

Radrizzani getting into public spats with fans over this is crazy, he needs to hire a pr person!

If I were Nketiah, I'd be frustrated too. He's sat in a
dug out watching a team that can't score. When that's exactly what he does. Despite that, the team keeps
him in the dug out, bar ten minutes here and there.

If bamford style of play is what is so important to Bielsa, one wonders why we signed Nketiah.

From what I’ve seen Costa/Nketiah combination looks very effective.

Bamfords style of play needs attackers behind him like Gradel, Snodgrass and Howson.

Midfielders that score 10-20 goals a season and have killer instincts in front of goal.

Our side isn’t capable of that. We need a number 9 who’s lethal and knows where the net is. At the moment, Nketiah suits that profile much more than Bamford.

Jonty is right - Costa and Eddie look great together. So why is he not getting the game time? The boy has a kind of arrogance about him, a bit like Kemar. From his comments, he sounds like he thinks he is better than everyone else. My guess is that he is not getting on so well with the older, more experienced players, and Bielsa does not want to ruffle feathers. This reeks of poor man-management to me.
