Former England midfielder Paul Gascoigne has defended Leeds United manager Marcelo Bielsa over ‘spygate’ in an expletive-laden outburst on social media.Bielsa has come under criticism for sending a member of his staff to watch Derby County’s training sessions in the run up to the Championship fixture between the pair, which took place on Friday evening.The Argentine admitted he was the person who sent the spy in an interview given prior to kick-off, with Leeds going on to win the match 2-0 to extend their lead at the top of the second division table.
