Loads of Leeds fans have been reacting to some comments from Marcelo Bielsa, as the gaffer heaped praise on super-sub Samuel Saiz.
Leeds fans were all calling for Saiz to start against Reading after he picked up another assist this weekend, and those calls are only getting louder after Bielsa praised the Spaniard.
Saiz has come off the bench in his last three appearances, picking up assists in two of those.
The 27 year-old is unbelievably talented, but has been subject to controversy in the past, including a ban for spitting at an opponent earlier this year.
The boss has clearly decided he is best utilised coming off the bench against tired legs, but his latest comments have left fans wondering why he can’t get a start.

“I think Saiz is the most skilled player in our team and he has skills that few players have,” Bielsa said. “I’m not talking about only our team. I’m talking about football in general.
“Samu is very useful to our team. Either he plays 20 minutes, half-an-hour or the whole game. I have the obligation to take into account the whole team.”
The crafty playmaker has four Championship assists so far this campaign, and having both him and Pablo Hernandez on the pitch must be terrifying for opposition defenders.
Loads of fans have been reacting to the boss’ comments, and you can find some of the best Twitter reactions down below…
