Can someone please tell me if this Leeds 11 was bought by Bielsa or if he actually transformed a team from another regime. They are just too fluid.
The majority of the squad was the same players that finished 13th in the championship the season before Bielsa. And he turned the playets around in a matter of 6 weeks.

5 of the starting XI were already there but as soon as he came in you could see the difference Bielsa made to the way they play.

Can see Leeds playing directly into Spurs hands and getting done on the counter like against us
We didn't exactly get them on the counter but by pressing them high up the pitch. This counter stuff is a bit a myth. We play on the counter depending on the phases in the game but that is hardly the plan to sit deep and break on the counter.

I see the Premier League has just rearranged our Burnley fixtures 3 days before Liverpool whilst they continue to get consistently longer breaks between games.

We asked for the game to be played then. Also it’s 5 days rest.

I hate Leeds but I really dont mind them finishing between 8-10th and never improving over the years. Good entertainment for us while boosting the prestige of the league.

Try again mate - it's FIVE days.

And we requested they looked at moving it there too.

Just in case anyone missed it. I don't like Mount.

For all the goals Bamford has this season, he would've had so many more had he been a half decent finisher

This game needs a Leeds goal to wake Spurs up.

What's Mourinho's thinking? He's seen us utterly annihilate them a couple of weeks ago yet he's lined up as if he's playing a top of the table tight clash.

If we encouraged more managers like Bielsa players like Dier who cant make a simple lob pass will die out.

Only a matter of time until Bergwijn is turned into a fullback by Mou.

I swear to god, he'd park the bus against my pub team. Edit: bah Pen.
