Bielsa’s playing a needlessly risky game with some of our players suddenly

|

Leeds will be looking to at least finish these last two games on a high and see where it takes us with the top two race now out of our hands.

The Whites have been excellent this season but in recent matches it has fallen away and now Sheffield United will need to blow their game with Ipswich in order to let us back in.

We cannot think about that, though, and rather winning our last two for a likely play-off campaign, with Kalvin Phillips hopefully playing.

He missed the game against Brentford and played for the U23s last night to keep his fitness up but surely at this stage of the season such a risk is not needed.

Bielsa has done that a lot this year, but at this point in the campaign players don’t need more minutes than necessary – just keep him playing in the senior side.

Imagine if he’d picked a knock up yesterday when he didn’t need to play, it’s something we need to stop doing now.
