Gabby Agbonlahor has had plenty to say about Leeds United so far this season - and he's been at it again.
The former Aston Villa striker managed to upset a few Leeds fans by dismissing Marcelo Bielsa's side as a "myth" following their promising start to life back in the Premier League.
Agbonlahor was made to eat some humble pie after Bielsa's men swept aside Villa 3-0 on their own turf last month.
However, since then, Leeds have suffered successive 4-1 defeats - at home to Leicester City and away to Crystal Palace on Saturday.
Those results have taken the gloss off Leeds' opening to the campaign going into the final international break of the year.
They have taken 10 points from eight games - and earned praise for their positive approach along the way.
But eight goals conceded in two outings will be of concern to Bielsa.
Agbonlahor believes the physical demands put on the Leeds players by the head coach in order to fulfil his all-action style could already be catching up on them - and warned against potential burnout, even at this early stage of the season.
“The biggest thing for me was the team looked tired," he told talkSPORT.
"The team looked shattered. We talk about how they run in training, how much they run in games.
"This looks like a team that’s tiring and already suffering burnout.”
Leeds should now have some time to recharge their batteries - at least those not away on international duty - before their next match, against Arsenal at Elland Road, on Sunday, November 22.
