I thought Hjelde did okay against them last week. Unless Struijk is fit, fit, then i'd be tempted to keep him in there.

Yeah that's what I think. I would prefer to play Hjelde than James upfront.
Would defo play Hjelde. Antonio didn't enjoy him I felt. Would save Bamford for Newcastle game. Came back last time and only lasted 20 mins.
I also thought Hjelde played well. I actually thought Bate did well too and was surprised he was subbed at half time.
On a separate note, Burnley v Leicester off due to Burnley's injuries + covid cases. They seem to have a lot of excuses up their sleeves when you throw in their pitch issues too. They're going to have a back log of fixtures. And I think that helps us out.
Personally I'd start hjelde.
Not sure he did as well as some people are saying, for me he didn't look nearly as comfortable on the ball as you would expect a bielsa player to be but I dont think he did enough to be dropped for a player who might not be quite match fit.
Hope bamford can pass a fitness test and start, however giving him minutes from the bench might be the better option
As much as we need Bamford back I'd take it slow and ensure he's ready and less likely to get injured again
The Newcastle Home match seems logical
