Leeds bosses fear new manager Jesse Marsch will be taking over a squad that is mentally and physically shattered.Former RB Leipzig and New York Red Bulls boss Marsch is expected to be appointed today as Marcelo Bielsa's replacement.Leeds chairman Andrea Radrizzani sacked Bielsa in the wake of last weekend's 4-0 home thrashing by Tottenham.The news left Leeds fans stunned and distraught, but Radrizzani decided to wield the axe because he thought the Argentine would take the club back into the Championship.And it has emerged that one of the main factors behind Radrizzani's decision was that Bielsa's intense training methods had left his stars too tired to compete in games.It is understood the players became bored of Bielsa's approach, found him too demanding and could no longer cope with what he was asking them to do.Leeds find themselves two points above the drop zone following six games without a win, and have lost their last four matched by an aggregate scoreline of 17-2.Radrizzani, along with his fellow directors, targeted Marsch two years ago and had lined him up to come in this summer, when Bielsa was expected to leave the Yorkshire club.But Leeds have had to bring forward their plans and hope to confirm Marsch's appointment within a matter of hours, provided the necessary paperwork and visa applications get completed.Bielsa, meanwhile, travelled to the club's training ground this morning to say an emotional goodbye to his players and staff and is expected to fly back to Argentina to be reunited with his family.

"I think there should be six boxing judges for title fights," he wrote on Twitter .Do you think Jack Catterall was robbed? Let us know in the comments section."Three pairs of two [and] each pair has to agree on the same score at the end of the round."If they don’t they briefly debate their reasoning, almost like a jury system.

Pep Guardiola has named the only five Premier League sides who try to go toe-to-toe with Manchester City in matches – and Manchester United are not one of them. Man City sit top of the Premier League table, six points ahead of Liverpool, as they aim to win back-to-back titles.Guardiola’s side have won the league in three of the past four seasons and are used to dominating matches with their possession-based style.The majority of teams therefore focus on staying organised and compact, while trying to threaten on the counter-attack or at set pieces.There was a good example of those contrasting styles on Saturday in City’s narrow 1-0 win over Everton, which came via a late Phil Foden goal.After the match, Guardiola was asked whether Everton’s game plan of sitting deep to try and frustrate City was now the prevailing theme across the entire league.“I know we provoke them, but yeah, except Liverpool, Brighton, Arsenal, Villa and Leeds United, the rest, yeah,” he replied.“The rest sit back, but I’m not saying there is anything wrong with that.“Every manager can do what they want.HAVE YOUR SAY! Is Pep Guardiola right in his assessment of his rivals? Comment below.“One of the principles is to be patient.

Dancing on Ice fans certainly do not miss a trick, that's for sure as they highlighted an awkward moment between hosts Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield on-air.The pair seemed to get off to bad footing when Phillip attempted to hand over to his on-screen partner a tad too early on Sunday's show (February 27).Phillip had been chatting away to the contestants who had taken part in the prop-themed show when he blurted: "Over to Holly," which prompted a tense response.With his co-star not quite ready yet, she whispered in response: "No!"At this point the This Morning host noticed his slip up and averted to a clip of next weekend's programme instead.After the VT had rolled, Holly was spotted in the audience speaking with the friends and families of the celebrity contestants.Although Holly and Phil are absolute professionals on camera, not even the dynamic duo could gloss over the mishap, as fans raced to social media to call them out.One fan wrote: "Also the tiny '…no!' from Holly when Phil tried to pass to her at the wrong time."A second said: "Haha, even the veteran presenters can mess up sometimes!""Phil will be raging that Holly said no to him. She'll get sacked," added a third.While a fourth pointed out: "Feels like tension between Holly and Phil on Dancing on Ice.

Marcelo Bielsa became watery-eyed as he said his goodbyes to the Leeds backroom staff following his sacking from the club.The Argentine had developed a massive connection with the city and supporters for his brilliant tenure and so naturally he became overcome with emotions` as he departed the club for the final time.According to The Athletic, the 66-year-old was “visibly tearful” at the training ground, Thorp Arch on Sunday, a place where he “virtually lived in for almost four years.”The publication report, too, that others from the backroom staff also left, such as assistants Pablo Quiroga and Diego Flores and fitness coach Benoit Delaval.The piece continued to say that the now-former Whites boss “is due to hold a last meeting with the club’s players today before preparing for a flight to Argentina, the final leg in one of his biggest adventures.”Bielsa, 66, who was appointed in June 2018, was sacked after a 4-0 home defeat to Spurs, a game that was to become the last straw in a series of massive losses for Leeds, with the club two points above the relegation zone and in free fall.Under Bielsa, Leeds secured promotion back to the Premier League after 16 years away when his side was promoted as champions in July 2020.He led the side to finish ninth last season in their inaugural campaign.But Saturday's 4-0 defeat by Tottenham was the final straw as the club felt time was running out to save the season."This has been the toughest decision I have had to make during my tenure at Leeds United, taking into account all the success Marcelo has had at the club," said Leeds United chairman Andrea Radrizzani."With Marcelo as our head coach, we had three incredible campaigns and the good times returned to Elland Road.

Scientists believe they may have found a way to support life on the moon using a machine that extracts oxygen from moon rocks.Unmanned spacecraft would feed the rocks into the machine to be crushed to dust that would be pressed into tablets that can be heated to release oxygen.The oxygen could then be stored in tanks for future use if humans were to create a 'lunar village,' Mirror reports.The European Space Agency has made an £840,000 deal with Thales Alenia Space, an alliance of French and Italian firms, to make a blueprint for the device – made possible by UK scientists.Roger Ward of Thales Alenia Space, which could launch the project in the next two years, said: “We wish to have lunar research stations which are permanent and people can go backwards and forwards from, rather than just go up there every 20 years.“That’s when you start thinking about lunar villages and the need for resources such as oxygen to support that.”British firm Metalysis, in Rotherham, South Yorkshire, developed the chemical process that makes extraction possible.Scientists hope the Moon could eventually be used as a refuelling station for deeper space travel.For more incredible stories from the Daily Star, make sure you sign up for one of our newsletters here.Mr Ward added: “We should get to the point where going to the Moon is very normal.”The news comes after an image taken by NASA's Curiosity Rover on Mars sent a snap back to Earth which has been described by Twitter users as looking like an alien sex toy or a shoehorn.The multi-faceted robot was launched on November 26, 2011, before landing a year later to explore the Gale crater and gather data for the agency's Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) mission.Its most recent image taken from Mars'
