It would seem to me that Marcelo Bielsa’s arrival is going to change the way things work at Leeds United in the coming seasons.
Of course, we’re all hoping that he is around for a long time as, more than likely, that will mean that we’re back in the big time at long, long last.
And, with his arrival now confirmed, his comments since suggest that we’re going to be taking a much more collaborative approach to decisions – which is long overdue.
As quoted by Phil Hay, Bielsa said:
Bielsa: “When a club with Leeds United’s history made me an offer, it was impossible to turn down. I’m excited for the challenge ahead and I look forward to collaborating with Victor, Andrea and Angus as we work hard to achieve great things at this football club.”

Certainly, it’d be nice to see all the key figures pulling in the right direction as that has not been the case for some time.
The Verdict
A change in approach appears to be on the way and that is certainly more than welcome.
Bielsa is evidently close with Victor, Andrea and Angus – which is already a good start – and hopefully, that will yield some great success.
