Leeds United fans left asking Marcelo Bielsa and relegation questions following Spurs thrashing

Leeds United fell to a 4-0 defeat against Tottenham Hotspur, as despite some excellent opportunities to score going forwards, they remained wide open at the back and Spurs took advantage.

The Whites hit the post through Raphinha and Robin Koch, while Stuart Dallas failed to score an open goal. At the other end, Spurs scored through Matt Doherty, Dejan Kulusevski, Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son.

Leeds are now exposed to the bottom three, with Burnley holding three games in hand and only three points behind in 18th place. The Whites' form is alarming and fans have been reacting online after another painful scoreline, with real questions over Marcelo Bielsa's future.

Here are a selection of tweets:

@Holdsworth__: "I said a week ago changing manager now would be too risky. Is it now more risky not to change manager? We're getting relegated at current rate."

@thomashurst: " Burnley beat Spurs. That is the problem. Teams below us are never getting tanked or finding themselves 2/3 nil down at half time every week, they are capable of nicking games. We are not."

@gdlufc: "Could have scored 4 today, spurs could have scored 6. Something needs to change drastically or we're down."

@_billyreid: "I have no expectations for Leeds and I'm still disappointed."

@irvinelufc: "Wait is this the Bielsa burnout we’ve denied and laughed at for years?"

@thejackycalv: "As bad as we were we could have scored 4 or 5 today easily. Just missing chances for fun and conceding goals for fun. Good combination."

@lufc_dan: "Junior Firpo and Diego Llorente. I prefer not to speak."
