Leeds have history of starting well in the Championship, only to see it fall apart later in the season, but Bielsa is sure it will not happen this time round.
"It's very difficult to make any comparison because I was not here last year," the Argentine said
"I know what happened last year, I know what you are trying to underline. But I don't think it's good to compare both situations. The good idea is to resolve this situation right now.
"We always try to be consciously optimistic and we have solid arguments to build optimism. We'll have to show that next Friday.
"You don't react in the same way after a win than after a loss. After the game we lost, we asked some questions together. We built our conclusions together.
"We have had so far two training sessions where each player can express himself. The conclusions are positive ones and I have a lot of hope for Friday's game."
