Image for Leeds United: Fans flock to tweet which shares footage of Marcelo Bielsa

Some Leeds United fans have flocked to a tweet that was recently posted by @JimenaJuani which shares footage of a coaching presentation given by Marcelo Bielsa.

It may be fair to say that Bielsa is currently one of the most highly respected coaches in world football. Bielsa has been recognised by Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola as “the best coach in the world”, with the Catalan coach citing the extent to which Bielsa has “influenced football and his football players” as evidence of the Argentinian manager’s significance in the game. 

Other coaches may not be the only people who admire Bielsa, as Leeds United fans may also currently hold the 64-year-old Argentinian in high regard, with his Leeds side are sitting at the top of the Championship table at present, after playing 37 games this term

Some Whites supporters have flocked to this tweet which shares footage of Bielsa’s presentation to share praise for the manager, with one Leeds fan stating that they feel “lucky to have” Bielsa at Elland Road. Read the positive reactions of some Whites fans to this footage in the tweets below.

To kick off our quiz on the inaugural 2004/05 EFL Championship campaign, who managed Sunderland to a first-place finish in the 2004/05 Championship season?

What do we think?

Considering the amount of respect that has been shown to Bielsa by the likes of Pep Guardiola, it may be understandable why some Leeds fans may feel grateful to have the 64-year-old coach currently managing their club. 

With just nine games left to be played in the 2019/20 Championship season, it may be fair to say that Leeds are sitting in a promising position to potentially earn a place in the Premier League for the first time since being relegated in the 2003/04 campaign. As a result of their league position, it may be of little wonder why some Leeds fans have flocked to this tweet to learn more about and share praise for Bielsa.
