Moyes details Bielsa influence
West Ham United manager David Moyes has expressed his admiration for Marcelo Bielsa ahead of his side's visit to Elland Road.
The two will meet tomorrow when Leeds and West Ham go head-to-head, and Moyes has revealed he once took inspiration from the Argentine back when he was in charge of Everton.
He told the official West Ham United website: "I’ve always admired Marcelo Bielsa.
"I remember when he went to Athletic Bilbao and I went to watch his team against Manchester United. I saw how he played and I thought 'I’m going to have to try and play that way against United when we play them with Everton', and we got a draw in that game.
"His teams have always got an incredible energy, and everyone is well aware of his man-to-man marking in many areas of the pitch.
"I think they’re more than that as well: I think they’re a really good passing team, and I don’t necessarily mean just short passing, but long passing as well, and for that I think their manager deserves a lot of credit because he’s done great work with them."
Leeds United winger handed Brazil call-up
Leeds United winger Raphinha has received another call-up to the Brazil senior squad..
The 24-year-old was given the nod by the Selecao last month but was unable to travel due to Covid-19 rules regarding quarantine.
However, he has been included in the squad that will take on Venezuela, Colombia and Uruguay in World Cup qualifiers next month.
Pundit predictions as former England teammates disagree
Former England teammates David Seaman and Michael Owen have disagreed on what the outcome of the clash between Leeds United and West Ham United will be.
Owen has backed the Hammers to secure an away win at Elland Road, whereas Seaman has tipped the club he supported as a boy to pick up their first Premier League win of the season.
Mark Lawrenson has echoed Seaman, backing Marcelo Bielsa's side to secure three points.
