Former Leeds United defender Pontus Jansson has insisted he prefers current manager Thomas Frank over Marcelo Bielsa - admitting that his former club made the ‘right decision’ to cut ties with their iconic boss. Brentford host Leeds on the final day of the season on Sunday with the Whites fighting for their Premier League lives.
Jesse March’s side must better Burnley’s result at home to Newcastle or face the drop, which would be the final straw for an already disastrous season which - among many other problems - saw the much-loved Bielsa depart after a string of heavy defeats.
And ex-Leeds defender Jansson admitted his feelings were ‘mixed’ when the Argentine manager left, but said it was the right decision and compared new Leeds manager Marsch to current Bees boss Frank.
