A new life-long Leeds United fan was made away at Derby County Saturday.

Do you see the smile on the face of the guy wearing the Newell’s Old Boys shirt while he’s shaking Marcelo Bielsa’s hand?

It’s brilliant.

Diego Lopez, from what he said on Twitter, moved to Derby and couldn’t pass up the chance to meet Bielsa, and really, who can blame him? It’s not every day you get a chance to meet someone that has a stadium named after him.

And, yes, he’s Leeds now.

On to the links.
