Remember the first game last season against Stoke? The football blew me away. I recall saying at the time it was like watching Barcelona!
A year on I believe we will be even better. Reason being the players will be more in tune with Bielsas methods and different systems.
There's one or two on here who doubt the squad pedigree but I'm sure you lads will be eating your, I won't say negative, words!

I really hope you are right Cork but I detect a real feeling of unrest in the camp.

In Bielsa we trust.

I think we will know fairly quickly.
If we are good we should walk the first 5-6 league games
If we are bad. Then we won’t.
My gut is won’t.
I’m praying that unloading all the surplus will give us enough money for a bang em in striker and decent cb.
Without these two additions I will be very surprised if this season will be a happy one.
I still think Phillips will go too. I know biesla doesn’t want him sold, so if he is sold, could create a rift between biesla and radz.

Aus, not sure that we will walk the first 5 however we’ll we go on to do this year. I’m Cork but with a bit of Hughgo thrown in! I think we might take more time to find our feet this season. Some new key players, emerging players to be integrated in the right places, possibly a post Jansson reaction from some and probably a new formation all coupled with a difficult pre season from a preparation point of view. I think we’ve got the potential to be up there again but need to work out the best way of using the talent at our disposal and not sure we’ve seen how we are going to do that yet. Missing Roofe and Ayling at the start is a bummer as well.

The danger with Bielsa is often you either win or lose and the margin between 5 straight victories or 5 straight defeats could be very small. 5 of the latter would start the panic bells ringing.

Having said all of that, really looking forward to seeing what bielsa has in store for us, definitely going to be some exciting football!

We are not even sure Bielsa will be playing the same system. Think the players are capable of giving a good performance again but my worry is strength in depth. All our younger defenders are on their way out or gone already and we have only got White in. Plus Roofe and KP will probably be gone before long so we have got to hope Bubs looks to players like Edmo, Gotts and Davis and use them properly. Think you all know my opinion of Dallas at RB and Beradi as CB. Think this season may mirror last season, lot of possession but letting in silly goals. Doubt if we will be sat in top two all season though.

In theory this makes sense with us getting use to Mb style but one things worries me last year as the season went on we got worse not better

Mb works people Hard and our small squad didn’t stand test if the season I don’t see how that will be different this season.
