Bielsa probably does this often

Lampard is fuming angry...still acted well and professional

He's been doing it for a while. He admits as much

Spying on the opposition is a sign of endearment in South America.

A cultural difference the guy wasn't aware of. Suspect he's not the only manager in the country who's done it. Storm in a teacup stuff really.

For anyone that wants some extra context, they should read this about Bielsa. It’s hilarious.

"a cultural difference"fack off!

I mean, that's literally what it is. Stuff that he's allowed to do in another country but is seen as untoward over here.

Ergo, cultural difference.

Lubo, stop being a daft spacker. This happens in numerous sports all across the globe. It is not a cultural difference

Furthering my belief that he's done nothing wrong.

So don't call it a cultural difference as some excuse for his actions you goose.

I mean the reason is that it is a cultural difference. That is the comparison to be drawn between Bielsa and Lampard.

Argentinian culture seems quite tish. Diving is also seen as clever too. if it's a normal acceptable thing to do then he wouldn't need to get them to hide in bushes

So it's not a cultural difference as you deem he's done nothing wrong but it is a cultural difference between him and Lampard???




----------------------------------------------------------------------
Twisting my words a bit. I understand it's a complex scenario. Bielsa has merely done something that, everywhere else he's been, is a perfectly valid policy. As far as I'm aware it's not cheating here either, more frowned down upon.

The issue is really how both clubs have dealt with it. Lampard reaction demonstrates the difference between European and English football.

As a side note, his theatrics have, thus far, not worked.
