Some Leeds United fans have responded to Alan Brazil’s comments about Marcelo Bielsa and Celtic.

Brazil has said on talkSPORT that Leeds head coach Bielsa would be a great managerial appointment for Celtic.

The defending Scottish Premiership champions are on the hunt for a new manager on a permanent basis following the departure of Neil Lennon this week.

Former Scotland international forward Brazil – who now works as a presenter and pundit on talkSPORT and stated in The Sunday Post in July 2017 that he is a red-hot Celtic fan – believes that Bielsa would be perfect for the Hoops.

Brazil said on talkSPORT: “You know who I would love to come in? It’s not going to happen, for me it’s the Celtic way… Bielsa.

“I’d love someone like him to come up there and get them buzzing, playing free-flowing football, chasing every ball and harrying, but that’s not going to happen.”

Bielsa has been in charge of Leeds since the summer of 2018 and is loved by the fans.

The Argentine seems happy at Elland Road, and one suspects that it is only a matter of time before he signs a new contract, with his current deal due to run out at the end of the season.

It is very unlikely that Bielsa will be in charge of Celtic anytime soon.

Some Leeds fans have responded to Brazil’s remarks on Bielsa and Celtic, and below are some of the best comments on Twitter.
