Leeds United manager Marcelo Bielsa could soon be on the receiving end of some unfortunate news as he nears a potential touchline ban.
The cult hero is only one yellow card away from accumulating four for the season, which would result in a one-match suspension, probably something he could do without as there are only ten games remaining in the Championship season.
And the west Yorkshire outfit will need their manager every step of the way as promotion is by no means guaranteed while the title is still up for grabs with West Brom only one point ahead.
The Athletic’s Phil Hay relayed the news on Twitter and it has got fans at Elland Road talking.
Here’s what has been said…
Plenty openly stated that the Leeds boss should never change, labelling him a “legend” for his passion whilst one claimed it wasn’t a surprise as if there was ever a man for treading a fine line, it would be Bielsa.
Another pondered if he would do a Sergio Ramos and tactically get one before the end of the season so he can definitely be on the touchline for their crucial run-in.

Others criticised the English Football League for having some sort of agenda, suggesting that there would definitely be a ban incoming for the 64-year-old.
While many used the opportunity to pole fun at the matter.
One supporter joked that Bielsa had more bookings than liability defender Gaetano Berardi while another questioned whether the manager would move his bucket into the stands to sit on.
A further member of the Whites faithful told Hay to remind Bielsa just incase he doesn’t realise.
