The former Liverpool player stated that Bielsa makes his players run unnecessarily and therefore he cannot play inder such manager.
Recall that Leeds beat Steve Bruce's team at St James' Park on that occasion, coming out on top with a 2-1 win, and Rodrigo, the visitors' record signing, was crucial when pulling the strings in midfield.
Shelvey also revealed a conversation he had with Leeds star man, Rodrigo. He said that the Spanish midfielder was running ever where in the field.
'We obviously played Leeds at St James' Park about a month ago now, and that Rodrigo fella was in the middle,' he said during Interview with Studs Up podcast.
'He was meant to be playing centre midfield and he was just all over the place.
'I said to him, "geez can you just stand still for one minute, because you're just running around like a nutcase."
'Some of it was just pointless running as well, and he goes, "I must do, I must do, my manager says I must do".'
On playing for Marcelo Bielsa side, Shelvey went on to conclude: 'I couldn't play for Leeds.'
