Phil Hay: Marcelo Bielsa not expected to make ‘radical’ Leeds changes v Wolves
Marcelo Bielsa is not expected to make any radical changes to his Leeds United side against Wolves this afternoon.
The Whites are in a real rut in the Premier League and were completely outplayed last time out against Southampton.
Phil Hay believes that El Loco won’t be forced into making “radical” changes though despite the numerous problems.
Writing in his pre-match discussion for The Athletic, Hay shared if he expects wholesale changes from the Whites.
“I don’t think he will do anything radical, no,” he said.
“I think he sees radical changes as transmitting a message to his players that he’s starting to doubt himself.”
Radical?
Is this is what is needed?
Leeds are struggling everyone knows that, and it seems as though it is going to get harder before it gets easier.
Kalvin Phillips, Luke Ayling, Robin Koch, Patrick Bamford and Junior Firpo are all still missing, and four of those will return next week.
Raphinha is the only one expected to come back into the side this afternoon, and although our superstar, can he do it all?
Changes may be needed in this side, but unfortunately, the players aren’t available for that to happen and Bielsa will know that.
Our bench has been packed with under-23s in recent weeks, and the only senior player that could come in from that today is Adam Forshaw.
Radical changes or not, the only thing that is required are three points, no matter who plays or the performance on show.
