These Leeds United fans reacted to Marcelo Bielsa’s latest comments on the points gap between the top two sides and the rest of the Championship.
Leeds and West Bromwich Albion are both currently on 46 points – 11 points above third-place Fulham. However, Bielsa is not taking this gap for granted, making his thoughts be known to the Peacocks fans.
The Leeds manager has suggested that the team at the bottom of the league can beat the top dogs in the Championship, proving how tough of a league it really is.
Here’s what the Leeds fans had to say about Bielsa’s comments:
Bielsa on the gap between the top two and the rest of the Championship: “The difference is just one bit of information about the reality. A team at the bottom of the table can beat the team in first. The objective is not to consider the past or the future, just the present.”

Basically just play every game as it comes and don’t get carried away which is what we seem to be doing even as fans. We’re on a good run but as we know good runs can end quickly. Keep it one game at a time and focus on getting three points

He’s right. Don’t look at the table. Beat Cardiff. Try to beat the next team.

If Bielsa left would Leeds gain promotion?
Yes, we are more than him!
Never, he's why we are so great!
Clearly Bielsa is continuing to impress everyone this season, putting his side top of the table and conceding the least amount of goals in the whole Championship.
Bielsa for prime minister of UK and world.

What Do We Think?
Bielsa has almost single-handedly created an amazing Leeds United squad that is a serious contender this season. However, what’s even more impressive is that the team, perhaps, wouldn’t look out of place in the Premier League, which is handy as that’s the goal for everyone at Elland Road this campaign.
