It's worth noting...

Love Bielsa. He's frustrated me at times this season.
But, he is our football messiah. Genius. Lovable.
The photos of him walking into Thorp Arch crack me
up and make me love him more. The bucket alone.

Glad Orta and club were able to get him. He's going
to get us back up where we belong. Saying all that,
part of me hopes someone like Pocchetino is lined
up as a replacement, once MB says he's done.

Gonna be pilloried for this but Bielsa on many levels is a better manager than the Don. We have no Billy, Jack Charlton, Bobby Collins. Norman Hunter, Paul Reaney or Johnny Giles in our squad that I can see.
What this squad, none of whom are world beaters, has done under Bielsa is just out of this world.

Els, you probably will. Don's Don.

I do think Marcelo sits right alongside Sgt. Wilko.
And as much as I fooking loved the Wilko years,
I wouldn't argue if someone said MB ranks 2nd
already in club's history of managers.

And outside of Pete's mental meltdown,
the O'Leary years weren't half bad either.

Something about our club is a bit enigmatic and has an element of quality and chaos and Bielsa seems similar.

Definitely what Bielsa looks for. We are similar in many ways to Bilbao and Marsielle. Historically successful club but not currently, strong identity, passionate fans.

I'd love to see what Bielsa could have achieved at a club with world class players or even whether what he has done at Leeds would actually transfer with better players and the egos that go with it.

Because to see what he's achieved with what were pretty average Championship players when he took over, imagine what he could have done with a squad the quality of Wolves in 2018. Would they have even lost a game?!

I don't think Bielsa is one for trying to put himself in the lights people like to see!..

I think he's one that stands on his own and knows what he can do, but, he also knows the only way to put himself where Revie and Wilko are in the ranks of Leeds United, is by putting trophy's on the table!..

He is loved by the fans of this club as much as some from other clubs he's been, and I think he's happy the way it is!..

He'll want to win things the same as us, but I don't think he'll think himself better then anybody else in the Footballing World, he's not that type of person!..

As much as I would love Bielsa to stay for a long time, I doubt that will happen. Given the fact that he is a long way from home, family and friends and given his age, we will be lucky if he stays for one full season if we go up. Still grateful if even that happens!
When you think of the humiliation we have had to endure with third rate imposter managers and owners before this, I for one have to pinch myself from time to time when I see that pride and integrity has been brought back to this club by the present owner.
Long may it continue. MOT!

Why do people go on and on about bielsa age, he is 65 he is hardly ancient.

If that’s aimed at me I give up! First time I mentioned his age and I pointed out family issues and I would guess a longing for home, which is natural! Anyway, thanks for adding to the discussion, not!
