Let’s call a spade a spade

Breaking down the arguments here:

We saw that Philips was able to manage 45 minutes of a game.

We were not informed of any injury to Phillips, so another 45 wasn’t presenting a direct ‘reoccurrence of injury’ risk.

We were only 1-0 down at half time and clearly struggling to get a grip in that area of the pitch.

As always, we have to cede to MB, and his better judgement. but I do agree with those who point out that if wasn't capable of participating in the game, was there any purpose in him warming the bench.

As is pointed out, if they hadn’t replied so quickly it could have been different. One point can also define a season sometimes.

Who knows?

We move on to Everton now.

Maybe MB had a word at HT and told Phillips to prepare to come on. Then we scored. At that point you think, yeah maybe bring him on and try and settle things down a bit. But within minutes the game had gone.

Not much point in bringing him on at 1-3 in my opinion.

On the plus side, Roberts looked sharp.

You going to give that tenner to charity at least?

Never in the history of predictions has anyone being as wrong as you have the last few years. You define cuckoo land.

Look at my prediction before the match

Not honouring you’re disastrously wrong bet then?

I can’t believe after years of being completely wrong about this team you still think you know better than everyone else.

Can you find me one person that has being more wrong than you over the last 2 years?

Double or quits

Just pay a tenner to charity. I put £2500 on the line.

Can you also answer the question.

And as the answer is obviously ‘no, no one has been anywhere near as wrong as you have’. Don’t you think it’s time to let go of the arrogance and assess the possibility that you aren’t as all knowing as you think?

By the way I'm not arrogant, just saying what I think based on 50 year's watching Leeds.

Making comments like this constantly, and then hiding from here when you are wrong 99 times out of a 100 takes an unbelievable lack of self awareness.

What you have been saying has almost always turned out to be miles from the mark. Yet you constantly slander other people's opinion. If you're not arrogant I don't know what is.

Look at yourself faith

That’s exactly why I felt Half Time was the right moment. Since we already know Bielsa has previously used Half Time for a switch in that position as you know. I was half hoping/half expecting it.

As I said, at half time, it was perfect to regain some control back in the centre. After our goal, we could have hopefully then consolidated with Phillips on the field.

The main thing is, we’ve recovered from bad days out at the office like this, and we will do so again. Bielsa won’t just jet this result ride; it will hurt and we can be sure he is figuring out his part in the result and how best to take the 3 points against Everton.
