There was enough of a buzz that he was the second coming.
I've admittedly only seen the odd game from him, but every time I've watched Bielik he has moved across the pitch like endstage Yaya Touré. You can't get away with that in modern football. I get why Ricky said he thought his only shot was as a centreback, but his defensive instincts seem to be missing. He was at fault for Leeds' goal in the first half for instance. I watched a bit of the U21 Euros this summer too, and it was disconcerting to see a 6 ft 2 bloke jump under the ball while trying to defend a corner.
He's getting subbed off now in the 58th minute. Derby's worst player in a difficult game. Their fans aren't happy.
