Stan Collymore destroys Marcelo Bielsa as Leeds United smashed by Spurs
Stan Collymore has destroyed Marcelo Bielsa after his Leeds United side were smashed again by Spurs this afternoon.
The former Aston Villa man took aim at the “Gross naivety” on show at Elland Road from the Whites.
Phil Hay has since reported that Bielsa’s job is now under serious threat after a week of embarrassing defeats.
Writing on his personal Twitter account, Collymore took aim at Bielsa and those who will defend him.
“Which parts? Pressing has been a part of the game in various guises since the 60s,” he wrote.
“Beyond that, I see zero that is anything other than gross naivety. Do explain to me the overriding philosophy that makes Bielsa a unique tactical philosopher. I’ll then come back with some facts.”
Destroyed.
It kills us to have to slightly agree with Collymore here, with naivety starting to become a real issue.
We are going out with the same set up every single game and it is simply seeing us taken apart with ease.
Only one team have conceded more goals after 26 games in the Premier League, and that was Barnsley – that simply says it all.
We are quickly heading towards the relegation zone, and our club is quickly getting dragged into the bottom three.
That can’t be allowed to happen, and it may be time for Bielsa to go out while he is still on top in our minds.
