Marcelo Bielsa is one of the most highly-rated managers in football and he has been one for a very long time.
The likes of Pep Guardiola have credited him for influencing them as managers, and he is now the manager of Leeds.
He led them back to the Premier League after a 16-year absence from England’s top flight.
He has earned some impressive wins with his team this season, but they were beaten 3-0 by Tottenham today.
That win was the fifth time that Jose Mourinho has managed a team against the Argentinean and the Special One has won every single time.
After the latest win, Sky Sports revealed that Mourinho has five wins in five matches against him and his team has scored 18 goals while conceding just two.
But some fans will still not give Mourinho credit for being able to get around Bielsa’s team’s style of play. Here are some reactions to the start.
Title chasers beat newly-promoted team at home, get the trophy out

He's always managed the better team, so no surprise here.

Sad and pathetic at the same time but what do you expect from fans of inferior teams?
When it goes to plan we look so composed, calmness personified.
More of this against Brentford and Villa please, Jose.
