Many Leeds United fans have been fuming at some comments about Marcelo Bielsa that recently emerged on social media.

Pundit Alan Brazil was recently talking on TalkSport and he tipped Bielsa for the Celtic job. He feels that while the move will not happen, but he would ‘love’ Bielsa to manage the Bhoys. He said that he’d love to see Celtic have a manager who professes a free-flowing brand of football. He went on to say that he’s not daft and it will perhaps not happen.

Are you confident that Bielsa will sign a new deal?

Yes

Yes

No

No

These comments from Brazil were relayed on Facebook by Leeds United YEP. Many Whites fans made their views clear about what Brazil had to say.

What did Leeds fans make of Brazil’s comments on Bielsa?

Bielsa was appointed as the Leeds boss in the summer of 2018 and his current deal runs out at the end of the current campaign. The Argentine though, will only begin talks over a contract extension at the end of the season and the Whites’ owners have been impressed with him so far.

Nice easy one to start off with, what number does Phillips wear for Leeds United?

Bielsa’s men are currently at tenth in the Premier League and Bielsa’s points per match tally at the Elland Road-based club is currently 1.73.

A lot of these Leeds fans are fuming at Brazil’s comments and they believe that Bielsa will not leave their club to manage in the Premiership.

It has been stated that Bielsa doesn’t want to deter from his policy of waiting till the end of the season to hold talks about his future and the club’s hierarchy is confident that the Argentine will sign a new deal.

Keeping that in mind, Leeds fans should not be too worried about Brazil’s comments and Bielsa might just stay at their club.
