It seems likely that we’re going to play the same side as we did against Stoke City and Derby County this weekend against Rotherham United.
The Whites have looked strong so far in the league with our tempo being very high and there being a clear willingness from the players to run the opposition into the ground.
Certainly, both Derby and Stoke failed to stop us and there is an expectation that the same will happen with Rotherham this weekend.
Continuity appears to be the key for Bielsa, then, with him revealing that the same line-up should play the Millers – as per Phil Hay on Twitter:
Bielsa says he thinks it will be the same starting line-up (as Derby/Stoke games) on Saturday. #lufc

This makes sense for now as there is no need to change things but as we get into the season I would imagine he is more open to rotating things.
We surely can’t keep this intensity up all year and squad management will need to come into it.
