Nice easy one to start. Who is this current Leeds man?

Carnduff captioned his post saying that this documentary from Sky Sports will be released ‘soon’.

This post then gathered a lot of replies from Leeds fans who were quick to share their thoughts on this latest news.

Here’s a sample of Leeds fans responding to the post:

The short clip of the documentary shows footage of Bielsa from throughout his career as well as interview clips from the likes of Pep Guardiola, Mauricio Pochettino and Kalvin Phillips discussing the Leeds boss.

The 64-year-old was appointed as Leeds manager back in 2018. Since then, Bielsa has taken charge of 92 matches for the Yorkshire club, totalling a points-per-match average of 1.77 (per Transfermarkt).

This season has seen Leeds win 21 of their 38 played Championship matches, drawing eight and losing nine along the way. This has resulted in Bielsa’s side racking up 71 points and placing second in the league table, behind West Bromwich Albion on goal difference (per BBC Sport).

Is Marcelo Bielsa Leeds' best ever manager?

Yes

No

Now that Carnduff has shared this footage of the documentary on Bielsa, this sparked a big reaction on Twitter with many Leeds fans sharing their excitement over the programme.

It’s clear from looking at these replies from this group of Leeds fans that they are very excited by this upcoming documentary.

This shows that they have a lot of love for their manager and are interested to find out more about him and how he works at the club.

Hopefully, for these Leeds fans, Bielsa can end this season with the club by helping them to earn promotion to the Premier League.
