Don't think Cooper in team would have done any better than 0-0 against chelsea as they did not score if he Cooper had been in team it could have been 0-1 with chelsea winning then it would have been only 3 points not 4
So the team pick the captain, The manager who got us promoted and to safety in the top flight picks him. But you don't like him or want him to play. So, who do you think is better placed to make a judgement?
It's not about 1 player It was a team effort that got us promoted and to premiership safety not just 1 player , and bielsa has shown we can win without Cooper and draw against arguably the best team in premiership chelsea without him can't understand why your worried about him not playing 4 points from 6 in last 2 games is great , quiet a few say he is not vocal enough as a captain including me , have a read through the comments here and ask them why they think that ?
Bielsa will be staying , glad we got the win over sheff utd was wondering though who's job it was to have marked osborne when he scored for sheff utd our defense still needs tweaking before we can move higher next season and with Man city , Liverpool and man utd to come these will be the test this season.
I'm hoping leeds defence holds up against man city today , I'm all for Cooper playing out of his skin let's hope so , if he does and the leeds defense holds man city then leeds have a chance of draw or win but it all depends on leeds defence
Brilliant performance by Leeds defense held up ok , I don't think Cooper sending off was a red card it should have been yellow , but Cooper again showed lack of sense going in heavy handed and put Leeds chances at risk but after Cooper went off Leeds players solidified also defensively it showed bielsa that Leeds can defend instead of going gun hoe all the time after Cooper went off and showed we can still win so it might give more ideas to bielaa , now I think Cooper is suspended we did ok without him hefore so I'm not worried.
Aslong as leeds can withstand the first 20 mins and 15 mins of 2nd half leeds will compete and can win 2-1 as man utd defense is crap , also 4 points out of 6 against top competition WITHOUT COOPER so he should not be automatic choice when fit
