PL news: Bielsa sacked by Leeds United
Marcelo Bielsa has been sacked by Leeds United after a run of poor form that saw his former side suffer several heavy defeats. The 66-year-old Argentine was appointed in June 2018 and leaves with the Whites two points above the relegation zone. Under Bielsa, Leeds finished ninth last season on their return to the Premier League after a long absence. The video below contains his final interview as Leeds manager. Footage courtesy of BT Sport. However, Saturday's 4-0 defeat by Tottenham meant they had lost their past four games by an aggregate score of 17-2. Leeds had finished mid-table in the Championship in six of the previous seven seasons before Bielsa's arrival. After they lost in the play-offs to Derby County in the 2018-19 season, Bielsa's team was promoted as winners of the Championship in July 2020. pic.twitter.com/HlwvNSUExb — Leeds United (@LUFC) February 27, 2022 The best reaction Liam Cooper tweeted: "You United a club, a city & a team going nowhe
