Former Manchester United winger Daniel James says the training sessions of Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa are unlike anything he's experienced.

The Wales international, who United snapped up from Swansea City in the summer of 2019, joined Leeds on the final day of last summer's transfer window in a £25million deal, with regular game time at Old Trafford increasingly hard to come by.

"The detail is second to none," James told BBC Radio Leeds.

"Everything is so fine and detailed. The one-to-one meetings and everyone's obviously got their individual clips to look at, which he goes through with you.

"The detail of it. I've learnt so much here already and I've still got so much to learn, but he's been absolutely brilliant since I've come in.

"There's times where he's had to reiterate things, but there's stuff in the games you do which maybe doesn't get seen, as you said, off the ball I find myself doing without even thinking anymore because we do it in training every single day.

"I've taken so much out of it."
