    Messi singing Bielsa's praises, not bad going after he was sacked by Leeds 2 years ago.

    Got them back in the Prem for the first time in like 20 years, which is an achievement by anyone's standards.

    Think injuries did for him and his style of play was blamed but sacking him wasn't exactly a successful operation in the end.

    Tbh March was doing ok

    They were great in the first season too, some forget that and just focus on when it feel apart for him in the second season.

    It would have been mad to think 10 years ago that Leeds would be in the Prem with players like Raphina, Philips and Harrison. The fact Phillips went to City and Raphina to Barcelona tells you all you need to know. March did very well to keep them up, but after their main players had been sold, he had a very tough job on his hands.

    In other news, Bruno played the full 90 minutes (hopefully unscathed) for Brazil in their defeat against Colombia, with Big Joe an unused sub.

    Exeter Vs Peterborough in league one postponed due to international call ups. The world has officially gone mad.

    The South Americans are genetically tougher than most the crap elsewhere.

    The Brazil fans have been highly critical of his play recently and are blaming EH

    Come on now, you know full well that "the fans" implies all but typically relates to one moron on Twitter.

    Southgate will always get his arse licked for getting the easiest draws since Steve Bruce
