Noel Gallagher told BBC Sport that he loves Leeds United manager Marcelo Bielsa and they have been ‘great’ this season.

The Oasis star also stated that Manchester City ‘could do with’ having Harrison back from his loan spell from Leeds.

Harrison has spent three seasons in Leeds’ colours – one reaching a play-off semi-final, another earning promotion and now helping the Whites to a top ten finish in the Premier League.

Given the abundance of talent on show at the Etihad, it will be interesting to see if Man City keep Harrison on their books because there’s no doubt that the Leeds fans would want to keep him on.

But ahead of Leeds’ final game of the season against West Brom on Sunday, Gallagher has backed Bielsa’s men to end the campaign with a 4-0 win.

“Leeds have been great and I love their manager,” said Gallagher.

“We could do with getting Jack Harrison back at City from his loan with them. This will be a huge Leeds win, maybe four. 4-0.”

Pep Guardiola may walk away as the Manager of the Season, but a certain Bielsa deserves a mention and huge praise.

Not only have Leeds entertained the neutrals upon their return to the promised land, but they have done it with style, aggression and improving defensively as the season has worn on.

Harrison isn’t the only Leeds player thriving in Yorkshire, with Raphinha able to dance his way out of a phone box with the ball, Kalvin Phillips being a dominant number six this season and Patrick Bamford’s probably still running from his last game.
