By the 26th minute of the game, the score on the pitch had become 0-3, and the camera was given to the head coach on the sidelines, and the old coach looked frustrated and bowed his head.
Perhaps, at that moment, he already knew his fate.
On February 27, Beijing time, the boots finally landed, and a number of British media confirmed that after leeds United's 0-4 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur, the management has made a decision to dismiss head coach Bielsa.
Famous Romano revealed that Leeds United management has already locked in a successor, that is, red bull Salzburg and Leipzig's Jesse Marsh, who has been in charge of Red Bull Salzburg, and the two sides are finalizing the details of the contract, and then the official announcement will be announced.
No way, conceded 60 goals in 26 games, just two points ahead of the relegation zone. Today's Leeds United has become a cash machine for the giants to win the goal difference.
In the past five games, Leeds United have conceded a staggering 20 goals, including a 4-0 loss to Tottenham Hotspur, a 0-6 loss to Liverpool, and a 2-4 loss to Manchester United, which is a piece of cake, after all, the team has also lost 0-7 to Manchester City. The relegation alarm has been sounded, and Leeds United management can only stop the decline if it is immediately decided.
No one will question Bielsa's coaching standards and abilities, even if the team suffers successive fiascos, the fans in the stands of the Elan Road Stadium can only cover their faces with their hands and remain silent, they have never booed Bielsa.
Because, Bielsa is a hero of Leeds United.
In the summer of 2018, the veteran coach Bielsa took over Leeds United, injected his crazy coaching ideas into the team, and in the physical collision with the Championship, which is known for its fierceness, Leeds United killed a bloody road and returned to the Premier League as the Championship champion.
At the end of the 20-21 season, Leeds United ranked 9th, which is also reminiscent of that Year's Leeds United, Viduka, Cowell, Ferdinand, Alain Smith... Just when people are expecting the white roses to bloom again, Leeds United has suffered serious injuries this season, and the strength of the team has been weakened.
What should I do if the lineup is not in order? Bielsa waved a big hand, what is this, continue to attack me!
Preferring to die standing rather than living on their knees is the coaching philosophy of "Madman" Bielsa that has never changed for many years. He led Argentina to gold medals at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, one of messi's most important titles to date.
He has led Chile to break the historical record of national football in a row, reaching the top sixteen of the World Cup, Espanyol, Bilbao, Marseille, Lille, Lazio, in addition to the Bundesliga, Bielsa's footprints throughout La Liga, Ligue 1, Serie A, premier league.
Now that the 67-year-old Bielsa is at the crossroads again, where will his next stop be?
