Are Leeds and boss Marcelo Bielsa really sliding into trouble?

Leeds United were labelled "an absolute shambles" after their thrashing by Arsenal. But with revered boss Marcelo Bielsa at the helm, could they really be sliding into trouble this season?

The Yorkshire club are also in the midst of a severe injury crisis and were missing 10 first-team players on Saturday, with Bielsa naming 15-year-old Archie Gray on the bench.

But the manager, who guided Leeds back to the Premier League two seasons ago, continues to be adored by an Elland Road faithful who stayed vocal in their support.

"It's an act of love towards the badge," Bielsa told BBC Sport about the fans' continuing faith.
