Marcelo Bielsa has stated that his Leeds United players ‘deserve their place’ in the Premier League because of the manner in which they have played in the Championship this season.

Following Bielsa’s appointment last summer, in a small matter of time, he has showcased the Whites attacking talent, high pressing and high energy in games and that has made them a dangerous threat in the second tier of English football.

Throughout the campaign, they have hovered around top spot and if they continue in their ways then automatic promotion will be on the cards.

Ahead of their trip to Loftus Road on Tuesday night where they take on Queens Park Rangers, Leeds fans will love this heartwarming message from their manager as posted on the club’s official Twitter account.

At this moment in time, Leeds are sitting third in the table and they can leapfrog both second-placed Sheffield United and leaders Norwich City if they can win their game in hand against QPR.

It is these types of pressure situations that will determine whether the Yorkshire club will end their long-awaited return to the Premier League.

Over the course of this month, they have had a number of tough matches, losing to Norwich, needing a last-minute equaliser to draw at Middlesbrough and narrowly beating the likes of Swansea and Bolton.

Nonetheless, Leeds still have the likes of West Brom, Sheffield United, Bristol City and Aston Villa to play before the season draws to a close.
