CHRIS SUTTON: Leeds' decision to sack Marcelo Bielsa could come back to bite them... with Argentine's replacement facing huge task to avoid relegation

Marcelo Bielsa is a big loss to English football. His style of play could be kamikaze at times but it was never boring to watch.

He was a master of chaos, and it is thanks to him that the juggernaut that is Leeds United Football Club returned to the Premier League after too long away.

Maybe his stubbornness was his downfall — he loves that man-to-man marking system of his and stood by it to the bitter end — but then he’s had terrible luck with injuries.

Marcelo Bielsa was dismissed from his managerial role at Leeds after a 4-0 defeat on Saturday

I’m not sure getting rid of him was the right move to make, in truth.
