Chris Sutton has hit out at Marcelo Bielsa's 'kamikaze' style of football at Leeds United, arguing the manager does not have a Plan B.
Leeds suffered a 6-2 defeat to Manchester United on Sunday as they found themselves overrun by trying to go toe-to-toe with their fierce rivals.
Whilst the Whites did create chances, they were lacklustre in defence and could have conceded more.
Writing in the Daily Mail, Sutton said it is time that Bielsa introduces a Plan B to his game, arguing that he was shown as being tactically naive against Man United opposite number Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
The outspoken pundit said it is no surprise that the Whites have such a poor defensive record if they are so focussed on attacking.
Sutton said: "A month ago, Marcelo Bielsa was asked about his side's defensive record and he talked uninterrupted for 20 minutes.
"He explained the ways in which his side concede goals. Through trying to play out from the back and losing possession. Through counter-attacks after they've flooded players forward. And so on.
"Watching Leeds United is entertaining but they are naive in the extreme. It is kamikaze play at times, and Manchester United exploited that at Old Trafford yesterday.
"Bielsa doesn't seem to have a Plan B. Plan A worked a treat in the Championship, but the Premier League boasts forwards who can punish them.
"No team have conceded more goals than Leeds' 30 this season. Most newly promoted sides focus on being difficult to beat, but that isn't Bielsa's priority.
"There is a lot to be admired for sticking to your principles, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer schooled the Leeds boss yesterday."
