Former England goalkeeper and Leeds United fan David Seaman has claimed he doesn't see a lot of difference between Marcelo Bielsa and Jesse Marsch's sides. The Whites have struggled to keep the ball out the back of the net in the past two season, with their defensive fragility laid bare.
Their poor defending almost cost them last season and as of yet, there's not been much of an improvement. Fortunately for Marsch, his side were able to outscore the Cherries at home last weekend.
Seaman told the Seaman Says podcast: "I wasn't around the TV and I checked how the scoring had gone and I was like 'Wow, what a result this is.' Especially with Elland Road and the crowd.

"They're a really passionate crowd. It's brilliant. Like you say, though, we once got booed off at half-time at Highbury and I'll never forget this, at the end of the game they were shouting 'We want six.'
"We were losing at half-time to Derby or someone and beat them 5-1 or something. The Leeds one was a big result because, even when you look at the league and see where Southampton are, they're only three points away from Leeds who are in 12th. That's how close it is."
When asked if he thought it was a season defining moment, Seaman said: "If it was any other club, I'd say yes. But with Leeds, I don't think it will be. We're up and down because that's the way that Leeds are.
"They were like that under Bielsa and I still feel that we're like that under Jesse Marsch. I don't see a load of difference in the way that we're playing, maybe the fact we're not conceding as many goals like four, fives or sixes, but it's still three goals at home.
"With Leeds, I still think there's a lot more rollercoasters for Leeds to go on. It's nothing new is it, that's what my worry is. We're shipping goals, yes we're scoring as well but we're not scoring that many. Obviously the four at the weekend was brilliant but defences aren't playing well."
When asked if the result against Bournemouth meant more for the crowd than the players, Seaman said: "It's really special for the crowd and you could hear that.
"All that I care about is that they stay in the Premier League, that'll make me happy. I don't want the tension and nerves of last season, going to the last game and going through that again. Hopefully this time we can be a little bit more consistent."
