@rico74leeds Wasn’t expecting that but get behind the lads whatever team it is, come on Leeds get that win for a top half finish

@Tkmcnamara Just so baffling, hope bielsa proves us all wrong #lufc

@LiamKFootball I mean, I guess it's positive that we're in a safe enough position to change the team and not worry about needing points etc.

@LufcLuca_ I’m so confused.

@JagJ18 Cooper Struijk doesn't deserve to be dropped. We've been so solid with him and Llorente at the back.

@Cordshirt Casilla & Cooper, is Bielsa playing to lose?

@deadhairlineee What is the actual point
