Ex-Leeds United star questions 'bizarre' Javi Gracia decision amid Sam Allardyce 'dice roll' claim

Former Leeds United defender Danny Mills has called Sam Allardyce's expected appointment to replace Javi Gracia 'one last roll of the dice' by the owners to keep his old club in the Premier League.

The 68-year-old has been heavily linked with taking over at Elland Road following the 4-1 defeat to Bournemouth over the weekend, with the Spaniard expected to leave the club soon.

Gracia has only been in the job for ten weeks after replacing American Jesse Marsch, who in turn replaced Marcelo Bielsa back in February last year, meaning Allardyce would be Leeds' fourth manager in the last 15 months - and the third in the last three.
