That’s a great point but I genuinely wouldn’t want an overpaid player full of self importance poisoning our team. “Side before self” is our club mantra. Although we will field a team of 10 out of 11 of our Championship side on Sunday, they really are a ‘band of brothers’ and believe totally in Bielsa. If every player gives 110%, you really can’t ask more than that. We will of course be backed up by a bench of U23’s who you definitely won’t have heard of.
One of my favourite Leeds vs Arsenal stories from the past at Elland Road. Allan Smith(not the Arsenal A.Smith) a 17/18 year old Leeds player with a bit of a rep for being tenacious jumped for a high ball and gave Tony Adams an elbow. Shortly after, another high ball with a bellow of “TA’s up”. Cleared the ball out and smashed Allan Smith at the same time who was left on his arse. Lesson learnt kid .... brilliant !
