Marcelo Bielsa gave his thoughts to the media, after seeing his side progress into the next round of the Carabao Cup.

The Whites had to be patient against their League One opponents, who defended well throughout.

Late goals from Kalvin Phillips and two from Jack Harrison saw Leeds progress, with a comfortable 3-0 scoreline in the end.

“We took a very long time to score, we missed a lot of chances,” Bielsa summarised.

“It was a very contested game, even if they didn't create a lot.

"The initial formation they started with, it took us the start of the game to accommodate to it.

“Every player that played, did so and justified why. Some because they had played less in pre-season, some others were coming back from injury.”

One of the players in action was the returning Adam Forshaw, whilst Phillips was handed the armband for the clash.

Bielsa explained: “Kalvin was captain because he was chosen by his teammates.

“Clearly for the team he is a reference and he is also for the public.

“Forshaw is very well prepared. He has sacrificed a lot in the last two months.

“Progressively if he keeps healthy and acquires the competition rhythm, he has all the virtues to be a player that can shine.

“He was going to play between 45 minutes and an hour. He could handle the rhythm of the game so we are satisfied.”
