The winger has been the pick of Leeds’ signings this season and Bielsa said: “He’s a player who unbalances teams by himself.
“He’s very attacking, very competitive. He provides a mixture that is not very common because he works a lot and on top of that, he is creative and can unbalance teams.
“As a coach, I can add very little to his game. The best thing you can do with players who are so spontaneous is to let them be themselves.”
Raphinha also joined his Leeds team-mates in paying tribute to the life of Val Crosby, the grandmother of midfielder Kalvin Phillips. She passed away last Thursday and the team posed with a shirt bearing her name after the victory.

Marcelo Bielsa said there was little he could teach Raphinha, who turned in another eye-catching display in Leeds’ 3-0 home win against Southampton.
Patrick Bamford’s 13th Premier League goal of the season and Stuart Dallas put Leeds in control before Raphinha curled home a sublime free-kick in the closing stages.
The Brazilian winger laid on a host of chances for his team-mates as Leeds climbed back into the top half of the table.
“I sincerely think that I can add very little to his game,” Bielsa said. “The best thing you can do with players who are so spontaneous is to let them be themselves.”

Inspired by the way plants like Venus flytraps can snap closed and reset themselves, scientists have developed new materials that alter their shape in the blink of the eye as a way of propelling themselves forward, powered only by their own energy and their interactions with the environment. These self-propelling devices could find uses in all sorts of areas, ranging from toys, to robotics and mechanical systems for the US Army.
This new material is the handiwork of scientists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, whose research was funded by the US Army with the intention of recreating the mechanisms of fast-moving organisms in engineered systems. This refers to plants and animals that feature spring-like body parts that enable ultra-fast movements. We ve seen this form of biomimicry make it into robotic grippers inspired by the Venus flytrap, for example, though these typically rely on external power sources to trigger their movement.
