According to the Daily Mail, Leeds United’s players absolutely loved Marcelo Bielsa’s press conference over ‘spy-gate’.

Leeds boss Bielsa made headlines this week, after talking to the media for an hour in a remarkable press conference.

Bielsa showed the depth of scouting he does at Leeds, in a fierce defence of his methods.

And Leeds’ players are said to have been very impressed by Bielsa’s actions in midweek.

Leeds will now be looking to put the controversy behind them, as they aim to retain their position at the top of the Championship table.

The Whites had lost three games on the bounce, prior to beating Derby County in their last outing to relieve the pressure building on them.

Leeds are next in action against Stoke City at the weekend at the Bet365 Stadium.

If the Whites can pick up the victory then they could move seven points clear at the top of the table, if other results go in their favour.
