Due to survival in the English Premier League, the Leeds United team is resorting to straw.
On Wednesday, it was officially announced that experienced strategist Sam Allardyce will take over as the head coach of the team until the end of the season, replacing the outgoing Javi Garcia.
With four games left until the end of the season, Leeds is in 17th place, but has the same number of points as the Nottingham Forest team in the relegation zone.
S. Allardyce faces a particularly difficult task, as Leeds still have matches against Manchester City, Newcastle United, West Ham United, and Tottenham this season.
