Leeds United fans have been reacting to a story that has come out regarding head coach Marcelo Bielsa.

And even when the regular season isn’t going on, he still finds ways to get involved in football, as a recent story reported him taking a training session for a youth team by getting them to take part in the now infamous ‘Murderball’ drill.

And he appears to have taken that love a little bit further, as according to journalist @TalhaArslan, he recently coached the Leeds United U12 team to a victory over their Newcastle United counterparts. This news was relayed to fans by the Leeds Insider Facebook page, and it’s fair to say that they loved hearing what he got up to:

The love-in between the fans and Bielsa was already well established at this stage, but you really have to wonder what else he has up his sleeve to endear himself to them further.
