News began to circulate last night that Marcelo Bielsa had been granted a work permit that would see him move to Elland Road to take over at Leeds United, but over the last 13 days, Leeds United fans have been desperate to see the Argentine simply settle on a deal with the West Yorkshire club.
This morning, Twitter appears to be a sphere in which there are a lot of frustrated Leeds United fans who simply want an end to this long, dragging managerial saga.
The deal taking its time is too much for some:

I’m sure he’s fed up as well:
The fans tweeting @PhilHayYEP every 2 hours asking about Bielsa are annoying me… God knows how he feels. #lufc

We hope this is a joke:
I’ve had chronic constipation that as taken less time than this #lufc managerial appointment.

There was some humour around the saga, at least:
The Bielsa deal is taking so long because the #lufc board are used to offering ex bin men the job

Good question:
Has Bielsa ever been to Leeds? Yorkshire? #lufc
