Various pundits have called Bielsa out over his actions, with many suggesting he cheated by breaking fair play rules, while there has also been a suggestion that Derby did not play as well as they can do due to the incident.However, Gazza laughed off these suggestions in Twitter rant made to defend Bielsa.He wrote: “Just wanting2say about the LEEDS head coach getting some crap about he had a spy watching how derby played ha. “2all commentators sssh FFS when I played I did not give a f*** who spied on me FFS so i spy watched me,seen how I played I would play s**t,bull s**t accept it u got beat.“sorry Im fuming imagine me going in2 my manager saying so sorry4playing s**t because a spy at the gates was watching me train2all commentators are yous getting paid extra4talking s**t& Im sure frank lampard after the game said sorry guys we got beat because a spy watched u.”Gazza then went on to add that spying has always been part of the game – highlighting Bill Shakly’s time at Liverpool as an example – before also suggesting that if players did not like being watched then surely Match of the Day, the hit BBC television show, should scare them.He continued: “Bill shanklys house over looked Evertons training ground you telling me the Everton players said I dont want2play against Liverpool because bill shankly seen me train I was spied on when I was 17yrs old so I packed in playing football,I got scared of match of the day xx.”Leeds released a statement on Saturday to confirm that owner Andrea Radrizzani met with Derby chief Mel Morris to formally apologise for Bielsa’s actions.
