A lot of Leeds United fans have replied to a tweet from former manager Thomas Christiansen after he appeared in Leeds’ latest #ClapForOurCarers video.
He featured along with the likes of predecessors Neil Redfearn and Simon Grayson, as well as former Whites man Robert Snodgrass.
Christiansen then tweeted about the footage and this attracted a lot of attention from many Whites fans who clearly miss and appreciate the 47-year-old.
Always a pleasure to support. Hope you all stay safe??#ClapForOurCarers #MOT https://t.co/UdlDtXM6jm

What do we think?
Christiansen was appointed as manager of the Whites in June 2017 and lasted until February 2018.
Was Christiansen harshly treated by Leeds?
Yes, deserved more time
No, he was out of his depth
Things started well for Christiansen as the Whites won seven of their opening nine matches in all competitions, but then everything started to go wrong, and when he was sacked, Leeds found themselves stranded in 10th place.
His overall record as manager of the Whites saw him notch 16 wins out of 35 matches.
However, despite this, it seems as though Christiansen is well-liked by many Leeds fans, and judging by the replies, these Whites supporters clearly have a lot of affection for the 47-year-old.
