Half time, Burnley 2-0 up at Brighton, Brentford, Norwich and Watford all 0-0.
Perhaps it's me having my negative head on, but I'm getting twitchy...
Fingers crossed for Brighton to turn it around and all the others conceding. If not, does the pressure ramp up for us to get something tomorrow?
Anyone getting edgy?

Yes I’m getting a little bit concerned I have to say. What a difference a win will make tomorrow though.

The way these teams below us are starting to play and get points, we should be really worried. If we go down, which is looking more likely by the week... the owners are to blame for failing to invest. Other sides around us did bring players in during the window, some very decent signings. Why we didn't get de beek or lingard in, I just don't understand..
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You do understand though. We all know why. Because Bielsa was offered them and he said no!
Yet you blame owners and not him?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The owners hold all the cards. They should see the club is in trouble, the squad is too thin and act. I don't believe Bielsa doesn't want to sign anyone. I bet there are plenty he wants to sign but doesn't get the financial support to do so.

But you know that’s not true.
You’ve seen he was offered players. And that we bid £20m for another player. And that Bielsa has told you that the club has done everything he wanted and he couldn’t ask for more.
This is a man that resigned from a role 2 days in because he wasn’t happy with the clubs efforts in the transfer market.

They are paying him in excess of 8mil a year, no doubt he's happy to tow the line of the owners when it comes to transfers.
Anyone can see that we needed a boost in midfield and up front and my fear is that we have been outmanoeveured by those around and below us.

You are quite clearly ignoring all evidence and facts that don't agree with your preconceived opinion.
Or you just don't understand the facts?

Where is this evidence? There are rumours and the usual stuff from Phil hay etc. the evidence is that the club brought no-one in , when the club is in a perilous situation. Sure, Bielsa would have a view, be picky and only want to bring in players that enhance the team. A lot of players out there would add more than Roberts, including many in the championship.
Ultimately, the owners have the final say.

So basically, you have an opinion and any statements or information that contradicts your opinion is false.
The fact that Bielsa has said it himself is irrelevant.
And obviously the fact that Bielsa clearly rates Roberts is the owners decision is it?
The person that stands to lose most from a Leeds Utd relegation is Radrizzani. The person that has risked losing the most to get us promoted is Radrizanni. It’s not a difficult situation to understand.
But if you don’t care about the truth and just want to vent then fair enough. Ignore facts till you go blue in the face.

It's not about ignoring facts.
Bottom line is that it ultimately rests on the shoulders of the owners. They have allowed or I'd argue, encouraged this policy of not signing players to provide decent squad depth and cover.

Kernowek… get your blinkers off….it’s Bielsa’s way or no way… he walks otherwise…and he’s right. What do owners know about football? F all. That’s why they pay him £8m a year.. if you’re not happy .. blame Bielsa..he’s making the calls. I do bet rads is cacking himself though… but he’s leaving it to Bielsa…would you rather have the coke- head picking the team? Look how that went….
….You (and others) forget too soon…
Have faith my son..all is good 😊
