Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa hits out at Premier League over Liverpool and Arsenal advantage

Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa hits out at Premier League over Liverpool and Arsenal advantage


Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa has hit out at the decision to allow some fans into stadiums but not others. It comes after most of Yorkshire, including Leeds, was placed under Tier 3 of the coronavirus guidelines. It means the Whites will not be able to welcome any supporters whereas Liverpool and London clubs will be permitted.

Leeds United boss Bielsa has blasted the decision to allow fans into some stadiums but not others as unfair.

It comes as the people of the country learned what life will be like post-lockdown as each district was placed into various tiers.

Tier 1 areas will be allowed the most freedom whereas Tier 3 will mostly continue as if lockdown was never lifted, with sports set to be heavily impacted.

No Premier League club is situated in a Tier 1 area but several are in Tier 2, which means they will be allowed to let 2,000 fans in.

Those that are in Tier 3 will have to keep supporters out, as has been the case all season.

The cities of Liverpool and London are in Tier 2, and Bielsa believes it is unfair they are allowed fans in whereas the majority of clubs cannot.

The Leeds boss said: “The power of each club corresponds to that club so there could be a rule that fans are not allowed in all stadiums or everyone is allowed to have them.

“The question shouldn’t be about the consequences of being in this category or that category, it should be about trying to maintain the competition as equal as possible with things that are controllable.

“I’m just applying common sense.

“The presence of fans has an effect on the result, but the competition says that people who are in higher rates of infection will be penalised.

“There is the case that these clubs should not be punished because they are in an area with a higher risk of infection.”

Meanwhile, Burnley boss Sean Dyche is just happy to see some form of normality resume – even though the Clarets are also in a Tier 3 area.

“Any fans getting into stadiums is a start, hopefully a very positive start for what comes next,” he said.

“Home or away, having any fans in the stadium is great. We’ve been waiting a long time, they’ve been waiting a long time.

“We totally understand why of course, I think it will be a very good thing for football.
