Pablo Hernández, on the lesson Marcelo Bielsa taught him at Leeds:
"One day, we went to training, and he divided us into groups of 3 or 4 players. He gave each group giant garbage bags and told us to go around the training complex collecting ALL THE TRASH we could find.
We spent about an hour picking up garbage, and when we came back, he gave us a speech, saying that what we had just done was the job of many people who work hard to afford a ticket to our stadium every Sunday.
He told us we owed those people respect, and that’s why we had to give our best on the pitch."

Lampard is in course to get 108 points with Coventry but apparently farke couldn't be criticised because he finished on 100 points with the best team the second best team the championship has ever seen (the best was the one he failed to get promoted a year earlier)

Thought I’d spent the international break watching and writing about one of my favourite young managers right now. Which for those who don’t know, is Iñigo Pérez at Rayo Vallecano. Link below 👇🏻

Don’t normally share non Leeds stuff on here but if you guys like anything tactics and to learn about a coach who played under Bielsa then check it out!

Been wanting for a while to start a weekly (well each game) thread after focusing on one observation I made. Whether that be a certain players role (MOTM like the good old days), a tactical change from us or the opposition.

In around 24 hours I’m asking all #lufc fans to join in a minute’s applause in the 49th minute for my brother who died suddenly on 17 august aged just 49. It would mean a great deal to myself & Paul’s family & friends if we can make this happen. Please share…

This weekend marks one year since we sadly lost City legend, Sol Bamba.
During the 14th minute of tomorrow's game, we are encouraging all supporters within CCS to join in a minute of applause as we remember a real City great.

ALT City icon, Sol Bamba, smiling at Cardiff City Stadium. We remember Sol this weekend, a year on from his sad passing.

What did he actually learn from failing in the league before if this is his line of thinking? #LUFC
DF: "After you lose a game (Arsenal), you would change everything. Decisions we took before the game, I would do same again. This group played well against Villarreal, Milan and Everton. If you change this, everyone would question why he is going away from winning formula." #lufc

Often last season was moments of quality when needed. Subs had a huge impact for two reasons. First being the overall quality of the squad being so high, second being often it felt the better players were on the bench (Rama + Gnonto).
So for you does it fall on Farke for tonight and Saturday? Or is it a balance of both which you determine through reason and logic and not just picking one side or the other?
We all want what’s best for Leeds, all have opinions on where that’ll come. If we purely focus on the past, we won’t progress forward.
Parker got Burnley to 100 points too, with a much worse squad. How many fans would want to hire him?

I don’t think it’s even particularly fickle to be angry at Farke if you’ve flipped from how you felt in the Championship. He is naive. He is stubborn. We have given him a squad capable of making games tight and playing a certain way and he’s not doing it. Moronic

Leeds United 🏴 envisage de recruter Eduard Spertsyan 🇦🇲 !
C’est l’une des raisons pour lesquelles Krasnodar 🇷🇺 met du temps dans les négociations avec Southampton 🏴.
Aucune offre n’a été présenté pour l’instant.

This Leeds United fan is en route from his home in Thailand to Dublin to watch his team play AC Milan at the Aviva.
Not many fans would travel from the other side of the world to watch a friendly match 👏👏👏👏
