Image for Bielsa must be tempted to stick with this bold Leeds decision

Wednesday night saw a return to winning ways for Leeds United as we put away an Ipswich side that is really struggling 2-0.

It was a professional performance, of course, and it left Paul Hurst out of the job but that is football.

Certainly, something else that is football is getting your formation and players right and we saw that was the case from Marcelo Bielsa as Kalvin Phillips dropped into defence.

It could, then, be worth keeping a back three intact for this one.

Down the left, Ezgjan Alioski should be at left wing-back whilst Luke Ayling does the same on the right.

Berardi is injured, of course, so it could well be Phillips, Jansson and Cooper in the middle which looks very strong.

Forest have good attacking players but if we go with this system we should be able to nullify that and also get our players forward when the time is right.

Stay bold, Marcelo.
