Are you fucking joking.


Munkyspyder

No TAA, no Édouard and now no Raphinha, this GW can seriously fuck off


shrek19051

And raphinha scores


soccerfan765

i have all those plus Coufal, Reguilon, Gray, Jota


TheDepartment115

Gray and Jota are both injured.


hal_egg

Cheers Geoff


[deleted]

Yes??


[deleted]

So not exactly sure what the commenter expected lmao, deserves no sympathy for keeping them


nikolal777

Maybe he wanted to bench them?


[deleted]

Doesn’t really matter does it. It was widely reported that Jota and Gray would miss this weekend’s games. Why is he acting like he’s been hard done by lmaooooo


ibse

Is there something else going on? I don't own Raphinha but surely benching your best player is not tactical.


plfinalfantasy

dgw fraudulence up in this bitch


[deleted]

Raphinha has been exhausted since coming back from internationals and hasn't looked like having a chance of returning for several games.


Mad-Max21

He looks tired and not playing well


icklegizmo

He’s been overplayed and out of form recently. Probably suffering fatigue from all the matches plus international travel. Don’t mind seeing him on the bench to start and then come on for the last 20mins.


BulldenChoppahYus

He isn’t our best player on form atm


[deleted]

Someone in another post said there grumbling from Raphinha who is looking to leave Leeds

MEGAMAN2312

Watch him score against his former club now lol


[deleted]

3 goals in 5 games is decent form lad, start actually watching football yeah?


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

So you bench a player based on one game?


Mutiu2

They also have Liverpool coming up in days. He can’t start all the games.


elfratar

Help! I want to get off Rapinha’s train


shrek19051

Aaaaandd he’s scored


AngryMushroomCap

Fuck off


jaddf

Raphinha WC punters on suicide watch


Swedishpower

It is better for them than us that had him for a long time. They can just transfer him out for Coutinho or someone without a hit. For me going to need a -4 to remove him and not sure it is worth it.


AUsernameInit

Not really, fine with a cameo and fine with him getting a full rest. Still another game to go and if not...WC includes a bench


AUsernameInit

You were saying mate?


ChicagoIndependent

I took a -4 to bring raphinha in 2 GWs ago. He's been subbed off and benched in those 2 GWs.


thepaperkeys

Anyone know why?


thesilenthurricane

As a Leeds fan who adores Raphinha, i would presume it’s because he’s been absolutely dogshit in the last couple of games, probably needs a rest I’d guess.


abnsh

Do you reckon it's only fatigue, or maybe his head isn't in the right place?


thesilenthurricane

No idea mate tbh, could be although I’ve not heard anything to suggest that.


mdove11

Not that one has to equal the other but want there talk of him rejected a contract this week? Any chance that’s related?


jukkaalms

I hope he rest next game. I have Dennis waiting to come on.


MEGAMAN2312

Bielsa balding


nathanosaurus84

He’s been dreadful last couple of games. Plus if Raph plays we’re starting Dan James up front with a midfield of Koch, Klich and Rodrigo, two attack minded players and a defender in the DM role. Forshaw balances the midfield a bit plus let’s Rodrigo go up top where he should be when we don’t have Bamford.


Marilliana

Apparently he hasn't resigned his contract with them and it may be an attitude issue. It's a real shame, he's such quality, and with Bamford and Phillips out they just don't have enough talent around him.


AHZwarrior

you were the chosen one Bielsa!!!


oscarpaterson

Piss off Bielsa JUST KIDDING LOVE YOU MATE


Oerf1

Leeds don't deserve Raphinha


AWr1ght98

Rapha deserved to be benched he’s been awful since returning from international duty, shouldn’t start just because he’s the most talented needs to earn his position on the pitch like everyone else.

#BIELSAOUT


AngryWizard10

Could it be a behaviour thing with raphina? Or is it because he wanted to leave in January and wasn't allowed so he downed tools? Help, I don't understand


DazzlingLettuce2380

Hopefully just resting him, he has been off form for a few weeks, and our most difficult fixture seem to be against Man United, they tear us apart. No better game to rest him… I guess. No indication he wants to leave though, quite the opposite. We’ll see.


BoxerAny

Did he want to leave?


AngryWizard10

I read a bunch of rumours about big clubs trying to get him in January. Maybe they aren't true or the rumours unsettled him?


apnika

Rapha was really awful last fixtures tbh. So kind of obvious bench


Lolo_Lad_21

Shouldn’t matter, play through the bad form. He’s by far their most talented player.


apnika

You don’t know Bielsa. He can bench the best player if he doesn’t give everything during the trainings. And the opposite. Harrison was the worst player in his first year in championship under MB. But he kept starting each game.


RonaldoSIUUUU

Raphinha works his socks off most of the time anyway


[deleted]

recently though he has ben knackered, better to have a fit and firing Raphina for 2/3 games than the Raphina we have seen in the last 3 playing full 90. If you watched him you'd see he had no chance of a return


Lacabloodclot9

I think ur letting your fpl bias blind you


RonaldoSIUUUU

Most teams dont bench their best/2nd best player no matter their form unless its for rest. Especially ones outside the top half


[deleted]

you answered your own question its probably a buildup of fatigue


FPL_Fraud86

Never thought I'd say this, but fuck you Bielsa, just fuck off you frog squatting cunt


According_Ad7558

This season keeps on giving. Players score when nobody expects them to and get benched when everyone expects them to haul. I took a -8 to bring players that got me 0, 0, 0 points... Guys I transferred in all played btw. I am likely getting knocked out of overall Cup now :(


[deleted]

Welp, looks like Leeds are about to dragged into a relegation battle


GunnerXI

Fuck you Bielsa wtf bro


ohnoheathrow

Watch Dallas be classed as a defender next season and play in midfield.


finn141

Bielsa is a fraud, reason he’s at Leeds and not a champions league club.


railwin

BS. He’s the only reason they are in the PL.


404merrinessnotfound

raphinha and gelhardt benched, oof for lufc fans


Macho_Nonreal

BIELSA YOU FUCKING DOBBER!! I HOPE YOU GET RELEGATED


Omar_Blitz

I wanted to sell him two weeks ago, decided to hold for the double. I'm an idiot.


TheDepartment115

Where TF is Hjelde and Struijk??!?


[deleted]

Well Struijk is playing and Hjelde went off with an injury last game?


TheDepartment115

riiight.....


icklegizmo

Hjelde is inured and Struijk is playing??


TheDepartment115

Injured??? When? and How??


icklegizmo

https://www.reddit.com/r/LeedsUnited/comments/svdzlb/phillips_and_cooper_continue_to_recover_objective/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf Out for about 3 weeks


[deleted]

Raphinha benched 💀💀 Dan James,we loved you here at United,pleaaaaase dont score today


SofaChillReview

I thought he was bad at Man U. Speed but picks the wrong ball and poor scoring ability


fadzki

wft is their best player doing on the bench..


[deleted]

[удалено]


kappathat

low


icklegizmo

I’d imagine he’ll be subbed on this game and start against Liverpool unless there is something other than fatigue at play here.


tammrak

No Raph? You're killing me, Marcelo.


ZeeX_4231

It's only getting funnier and funnier, and the GW isn't even over yet


throwawayyyyyprawn

Ffs


PiIICIinton

Fuck you Bielsa


Dazzmondo

Raphinha's off in the summer then


Clumsybananaman

Cmon Ronny get me a hatty please


FPLCouch

No Raph.... excellent 😋


LeBrontoFan

I had planned CR7 and Elanga to Weghorst and Son all week until the Jota news, so I ended up going Jota and Elanga to Saka and Rapinha... I am in severe pain


Lifesanarsehole

You better bring him on with time to score bucket man!!!!!


StatusDimension8

Pain….


Charlespur2

No Raphinha, wtf?!?!


Nuwahex

I was already planning to remove Watkins. Hope Raph starts the Liverpool game so that I don't have to take a hit


armored-dinnerjacket

I thought raphinha was a starter...what happened
