Our Leeds fans here in the Transfer Tavern can’t wait for their side to get going in the new season now they finally have a new manager in charge.
The men from Elland Road have had a hectic off-season so far with Garry Monk leaving and the search for a new boss seriously dragging on.
Indeed, it was beginning to look as though pre-season was going to start before the club got a new man in but they can now at least forget that issue.
That’s because Thomas Christiansen has arrived at the club and he has been quick to tweet about his excitement at being appointed at the helm of the Elland Road club:
I am delighted to become the Head Coach @LUFC. It is an honour to join such an historical club & I look forward to getting to work #MOT

Fans have reacted to that, then, and so here is the best of what has been said:
Welcome and we will all be marching on together!! Oh and can I just say @pepclotet is one hell of an assistant coach
