'Pablo!' - Leeds United fans love what Marcelo Bielsa has done against Fulham

Marcelo Bielsa 's team selection for this afternoon's Championship clash against Fulham has got a number of Leeds United fans talking.

The Whites go into the game on the back of a 2-0 defeat against Cardiff City last weekend which saw their one-point lead at the top of the table wiped out by West Brom.

However, the Baggies' 1-0 loss at the hands of Brentford yesterday evening has opened the door for United to move three points clear if they can get back to winning ways.

The big question ahead of kick-off has been how many changes Bielsa would make to his starting line up.

Well, the answer is none.

The Argentine tactician has opted to keep faith in the side that started the game against the Bluebirds six days ago and will be hopeful of a different outcome.

This decision means no immediate recall for Pablo Hernandez, but the Spaniard is among the substitutes.

Most of the reaction from Leeds United supporters on social media has centered around Hernandez being named on the bench.

Take a look at some of the best responses on Twitter...

What Bielsa has said

"The eight matches left are going to generate the same expectation until the situation is defined.

"Every match is important.

"This has a more valuable meaning because we play with the direct and closest team to us to fight for promotion."
