Bielsa's latest madness hits the Premier

Marcelo Bielsa never leaves anyone indifferent by the way they live the matches or by their decision-making during them, no matter how controversial these scenarios may be for any spectator.

The result of this has been his latest 'madness'. At 10 minutes into the match, Leeds midfielder Pascal Struijk cHe made an ugly tackle on Aston Villa footballer Jack Grealish, with no chance of reaching the ball. An action that conditioned him for the rest of the meeting since the referee did not think twice when showing the yellow card. However, the clash was going to end sooner rather than later for the Belgian.

After 20 minutes of the meeting, with a result of 0-0 and without apparent muscular discomfort, the footballer was replaced by Shackleton, with the objective that their presence in the meeting would not be in danger because of that card. A controversial and unprecedented decision in a Marcelo Bielsa that will undoubtedly give a lot to talk about.

Bielsa downplayed the matter after the game

The Leeds coach assured after Leeds's triumph that Struijk “already had a yellow card” and was “afraid of being expelled” because there was a post card missing action in which the medium “was at the limit and that worried him”, this being the main reason for the decision to change.

Leeds, after the triumph over Aston Villa, now have ten points, with a balance of three wins, one draw and two losses at the start of the season of the return to the Premier League.
