Leeds fans appear impressed with Marcelo Bielsa in first club press conference
Leeds United manager Marcelo Bielsa tackled his first press conference for the Whites, and fans seem impressed with the new boss.
The Argentine manager spoke for 80 minutes to journalists at Thorp Arch, Leeds’ training ground, answering a series of questions in his native Spanish through a translator.
Some of the highlights of Bielsa’s press conference included him stating that he watched every single one of Leeds’ 51 matches last season, as many as 15 players could be on their way out of the club this summer and he wants to play attacking football.
When asked whether he preferred Brian Clough’s or Don Revie’s playing style for Leeds, Bielsa replied: “In terms of winning the right way, I prefer to lose rather than cheat or play tricks.”
