Gabby Agbonlahor's joyless criticism of Leeds United after Bournemouth thriller

TalkSPORT pundit Gabby Agbonlahor has called on Leeds United fans to stop celebrating 'like they've just won the Champions League' after their 4-3 comeback win over Bournemouth.

The Whites took the lead through a Rodrigo penalty but found themselves down 3-1 after 48 minutes following goals from Marcus Tavernier, Philip Billing and Dominic Solanke.

However, a fantastic curling effort from Sam Greenwood got Leeds back into the game, as captain Liam Cooper thumped home the equaliser with a header eight minutes later.

A fantastic run from Wilfried Gnonto ended with a nice pass through to Crysencio Summerville who finished past Mark Travers to seal the game for the Whites, who stole all three points.

Speaking on talkSPORT after the game, Agbonlahor pulled no punches on Leeds fans and their players in his analysis on the final minutes of the match.

"The only thing I was disappointed with was how Leeds were celebrating. They win 4-3 today and they're celebrating like they've just won the Champions League.

"If you just defend properly, you don't concede the three goals to Bournemouth! Bournemouth have looked decent going forward but they can't be conceding goals Jamie [O'Hara]."

O'Hara then responded, saying: "You are a disgrace! How can you say that? They came back and won 4-3! How can you say that? What is your problem with Leeds?"

"Today was like watching Bielsa's Leeds, yes or no?," Agbonlahor continued. "We both said it. It was like watching Bielsa's Leeds today - yes, a great result to get the win but celebrating like they've won the Champions League or beaten Manchester City at home... they should be beating Bournemouth at home!"
