    Probably just been told he doesn't have to work his bollocks off tracking back anymore.

    Press from the front and then that's your job done in a 4-2-2-2...none of this covering every blade of grass Bielsa nonsense.

    New guy positives:
    • Orta has been scouting him for 2 years as successor and they have had lots of conversations.
    • Was earmarked to take over in May
    • Will build on the foundations built by Bielsa
    • Youth set up is important just like Bielsa
    • Academy will coach as per the first team just like Bielsa
    • Style of play will be more like Liverpool and City than Bielsas man for man
    New guy negatives:
    • Long contract until 2025
    • Only 12 games to save the season

    1. Why is that a negative ?
    How long a contract do you think he should've been offered ?

    2. Yes, really we should've sacked Bielsa in December.

    If leeds stay up , Leeds can buy quality players , the players must rally round we can stay up as we have got philipps and Bamford to come back after the next game

    If hes shyt he gets sacked and walks away with a lottery win, thats why its a negative. Ofcourse if he keeps us up its a positive and hopefully part of a long term project.

    bloodsuckers of the Australian economy may have been a better phrase, do you realise coon cheese over here had to be rebranded because mega leftards found it offensive to Aboriginals (another name for them here), if you are easily offended one seems to get what one wants in this day and age

    Lots of positives right there. The plan all along was to continue Bielsas work so what's not to like. I will be giving him till the end of next season.

    Yes plenty of videos and whiteboard stuff (non racist ones). Surely easing off for a couple of days will be beneficial after the fixtures we have had.

    Interesting as Firpo, Raphinha and Rodrigo are all together. These are the three I see cropping up who are “rumoured” to have questioned Bielsa.

    I hope the three of them (along with the rest) give it 100% for the new guy

    Shaun Wright-Phillips has claimed that he has ‘never trained’ so hard in his life as he did with Leeds United’s new boss, Jesse Marsch, as he told BBC Radio 5 Live Sport.

    The former Premier League winger worked with Marsch during his time at New York Red Bulls in the MLS and stated that he is a ‘good fit’ for Leeds.

    “He just doesn’t allow his players to end up vacating certain areas of the pitch and leaving big gaps, which in the Premier League with the quality that’s there can be exploited.

    “He has a philosophy that Leeds fans can get behind. Everything with him is similar to Bielsa, he doesn’t want anything but hard work.”
