The video was made 2 years ago. Also you know just by watching his teams throughout the years what he wants from his forwards. Maybe Eddie can adapt, who knows.
Bielsa is high demanding coach tactically and hard to impress that's why late goals from Nektiah won't make Bielsa start him.

If anything it could even convince Bielsa that having him as a super sub might be the best role for him coming on against tired defences when they need a goal.
Country: Iceland
Yeah what a master plan, having none scoring striker for 70 minute on the field. Wait until the other team score. Put on super sub to get the draw.

Well they're second in the league...

That is good for them for sure. But most points they have lost have been in games where the lose by one goal margin, most of the times where Leeds fail to score.
Leeds needs more goals and kill off games sooner. Nketiah can provide that. I think its only matter of time before he get to starts more games.
Even if some youtube-scientist-know-it-all think he has the tactics all figured out its still football, and all managers wants their strikesr to score goals.

This is true however sometimes those goals mean sacrifices in other areas of play..
And before you get triggered, know that I really like Eddie and I too want to see him play more.

There is a lot more to Nketiah game than goals.

Mr. Agreeable
I agree, I would be the first to point that out, I'm not defending Bielsa, rather dissecting his thought process
Country: Iceland
Yeah I respect Bielsa.
All I'm saying that even him can't start looking past it that maybe its time to try something new. 8 games without goals for Bamford now. You know. Sometime benching a senior for youngster, can spark some fire in the senior. Even looking past that I want to start Nketiah every game no matter what, there is benefits for all parties at Leeds doing so. I'm sure Nketiah will get his well earned start soon!
Mark Tobias
Mr. Agreeable
I agree. No idea what the fuss is/was over Bamford. Very average lad that. Not worth the fuss and will be binned if they come up.

Love how Wright seems to have more say on his career moves than his actual agent!

He should stop scoring so he gets a start
That's elite conversion rate. Wonder if he can keep it up throughout the season?

Tbf, I think at least 2 of those goals were from about a yard out. This is why stats on their own aren't worth much.

Eddie! Enjoy your current reign as AM's king over the water! When you're here for five minutes they'll be cursing the day you were born.

Indeed, however one could argue that it takes a certain level of movement, reading of the game/ anticipation to be there for the tap ins....
