I’ll tell the players. I’m sure they will take notice of your expectations.
You'll have far more telling games than today's, we were slightly fortunate to bounce back so quickly after your goal. Another ten minutes or so and I think it could have started getting tetchy. We played very well and with Bruno and Pogba playing like that, we'd have given most teams a really hard game. This won't be a match that defines your season.

Some sense at last.
As newcomers with a relatively low cost squad we have to expect these sort of results. We will beat enough teams to stay up for sure and maybe in two or three season we will have one strong enough to challenge.
Lots of work to do on and off the pitch before that happens though.
Yep. I don’t even think Utd played very well today. Leeds naivety seems to have been kept from last year. Leeds were awful. Allowed so much space
Not playing Phillips wasabigmistake an 80% Philips would be better than none.And what Bielsa said about Koch was foolish .He was useless .He should have said no comment.

Yeah it's a process that will just take a bit of time seeing as you're starting off on the back foot, compared to those teams in and around the top 6 but getting into a European spot this season, building on that next year and you're onto something.
Cloud Cuckoo land is where most on here live.
Ive just watched the match on match of the day disgraceful .Why have Phillips on the bench if Bielsa had no intention of playing him .It defies logic.
We need to spend, minimum three more signings required

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Apart from starting him when would you have brought Phillips on? At half time when we were only 1-0 down? When we scored and made it 1-1? Or five minutes later when the game was over?
Use your brain! Why bring him on if he’s not match fit and run the risk of losing him for six games or more with an injury?
Same with Bamford and Harrison. The game is lost - sub them and keep them fresh and injury free for the next game.
It might seem stupid but it’s called looking at the bigger picture. We couldn’t drop more than three points today but with injuries we could drop more points in the next few weeks.
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.

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?
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.
