They're good signings for the level we're at and both are much better than Gray, who started well, but has been poor since. There's a reason Leicester didn't want him even though they needed a winger. Sancho cost £70m and he's struggled. Harrison isn't playing well, but his output was among the best in Europe last season. He has a great attitude and will improve again.
As for James, his all round play is excellent, great pressing, good movement, very high work rate, almost a perfect Bielsa player. He needs to improve his decision making and execution in the final third, but we knew that.
I think a lot of the criticism our players get is agenda driven anyway, even if they play well, or average, they get criticised. They're the same with the Rhinos players.
I agree with a lot of what you are saying.
I also agree that players like Harrison, Roberts and to some extent James are there to be shot at from people like me as I don`t rate them and may find faults others do not see so I get what you are saying by agenda driven.
For the money we paid and from his performances with MU he was never worth that amount of money which could have been spent elsewhere.
But you are right the players fit the Bielsa style and I`m sure he knows a bit more than me occasionally
I`m sure James will get better but not sure Harrison will imho.
