How highly do you rate Bielsa?

I rate Bielsa as the best possession football coach

Discuss :lol!:

It's a shame he is not coaching Argentina

+1 Nick!

I rate him very high after what he did with Chile in WC.

Entertaining fotboll for sure

who?

Pep's a fan, and so am I

Also he had his chance with Argentina

Surely he deserves a re-run no?

dont you think he will achieve magic tiki taka orgasm with Messi and Pastore?

A coach with ''not screwed up'' mind. He is the only coach of that type in Argentina.

Isn't his nickname Loco or something? LOL

Kudos to Bielsa, brilliant game, unlucky at the end

Would have won if it wasn't for the referee today :dance:

Great coach, love his football and he is a genius. Should train Argentina, Messi is like the perfect player for his playstyle

But wasn't he unlucky in that WC. I don't remember much of that WC, but I have heard that Argentina created alot of chances to score but just couldn't put the finishing touches...

His nickname is Loco right?

Neutralized Pep without playing Stoke tactics

Yes..

Haha, sweet. He's a great coach who is a romantic when it comes to football. He fits Athletic's style perfectly.

Not really

Bielsa likes to play a possession based football while Athletic likes to play like english teams. But there is no doubt that they(Athletic) have player who can play like that..

He's great. The best SA coach probably.

He is known to water log training pitches if there is a possibility of heavy rain for upcoming games, I wonder if he did that? Wouldnt put it past him.

Great coach. I was surprised he wasn't chosen for Argentina again.

I'm sure he would start Pastore.

Wut?

Every team in Spain plays possession based football to an extent so I'm not really getting what you're trying to say there. No when I think of Athletic I think of intensity, of physically dominant players. I think of Epic.

Bielsa has Athletic playing at a really high and intense level. You have Llorente tracking back 40 yards and Munian doing sprints up and down the wings, it's great to watch.

The game in San Mames was a great advert for La Liga and I'm sure it'll be tough for Madrid as well.
