Sad sad day and a great man leaves the club and will forever have my thanks. I hold Marcelo in the same way as Don Revie as joint best ever Leeds managers. Pleased that the club are going to put on a Marcelo Bielsa dedication, which is unusual for a sacked coach. All Bielsa's coaches will also be gone so the new guy needs to work really fast as we only have academy coaches remaining
They certainly were good enough last year, so somethings changed, and it's that what needed addressing earlier in the season but wasn't.
If Marcelo had overseen a relegation then as a club we would have still retained our dignity. Now we'll likely go down with a whimper and the stench of corporate inadequacy.
Seemed a bit stubborn to me. I mean he’s been here 4 years and still couldn’t be arsed to learn the language !
I would rather he stayed til the end of the season, even if it meant relegation, we needed change of direction but not like this, im truly saddened today, We will never be able to give the man the send off he deserves, I hope this doesn't have a negative affect on the players who are already on there knees. I feel awful. I'm going out to have a massive drink for the man and get absolutely wrecked Thankyou Mr Bielsa
He did learn it - he's repeatedly said that he uses a translator so that his use of English-as-a-second language doesn't mangle what he meant. You can tell he knows English because when the translator gets it wrong he's on him in a flash. He's done better than thousands of so-called 'ex pats'.
