Watch: Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa trying to pronounce ‘Ipswich’ is simply amazing

Leeds boss Bielsa has mastered many things when it comes to football but saying English team names properly probably isn’t one of them.

Leeds United manager Marcelo Bielsa is a great mind in the game of football, with Leeds – despite their recent issues in their quest for promotion from the Championship – reaping the benefits from appointing him overall.

There are a few things the experienced Argentine hasn’t mastered though, with one clearly being his pronunciation of some of the sides Leeds come up against in the Championship, with already relegated Ipswich Town the latest team name he’s struggled with as the hilarious clip below shows.

Luckily for Bielsa, he might not have to bother mastering the pronunciation of Ipswich anyway seeing as they’re heading out of the Championship and into League One.
