'No one will like playing Leeds' - Liverpool fans issue verdict on Marcelo Bielsa's Leeds United

Leeds United are back in the Premier League and they certainly made their mark on the opening weekend against Liverpool at Anfield.

The Whites pegged back the defending champions on three occasions, with Jack Harrison, Patrick Bamford and Mateusz Klich all on the scoresheet for Marcelo Bielsa's side.

Unfortunately, Mohamed Salah's hat-trick and a clumsy challenge from Rodrigo on Fabinho that resulted in a late penalty ensured that the three points would stay on Merseyside.

While Leeds return across the Pennines without any points in the bag, Bielsa's men certainly made an impression on their return to the top-flight.

Following the final whistle, plenty of Liverpool fans on social media issued their verdict on Leeds' performance and it's fair to say they earned a lot of plaudits.

The general assessment is, with performances like that throughout the season, they won't be a welcomed opposition for the other 19 sides in the division.

Next up for Leeds is a midweek Carabao Cup tie at home to Hull City, before Fulham visit Elland Road in the Premier League on Saturday.
