Leeds United thrashed Norwich City 3-0 at Carrow Road on Saturday to move back to the summit of the Championship.

First-half goals from Mateusz Klich and Ezgjan Alioski sent Leeds well on their way, before Pablo Hernandez added a stunning third midway through the second half.

Much was made over Norwich’s decision to paint the away dressing pink this season.

It was designed to lower the opponent’s testosterone and increase a collective empathy, making it easier for Norwich to exploit – in theory, at least.

But Marcelo Bielsa’s Leeds side made a mockery of that plan on the pitch – and some fans of the Elland Road club are making a mockery of it on Twitter.

Norwich have won only one of their three Championship games at Carrow Road this season, shipping seven goals along the way, so perhaps it’s time for a re-design.

Meanwhile, high-flying Leeds are back at Elland Road on Friday when second-placed Middlesbrough visit Yorkshire in the biggest league game of the season so far.
