Guest neesy111 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Apart from Marseille, I really wouldn't expect him to win a trophy with the sides he's managed in europe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 He's also often referenced by the greatest managers around, Pep for one. I think he's probably got a difficult personality. I remember how much his Bilbao side battered man united, was the first time i'd really seen that style so effective. Yeap, but he's adored by the fans of most of the clubs he's managed.

Guest firetotheworks Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Why is it worth noting? Why isn't it? Similar to Sarri, they're both very revered coaches for their style of play, but neither have really won anything of note. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither did KK but still love him and wish he was my dad No I understand the admiration for both of them, I'm just saying that there's no reason to not note that Biesla hasn't won anything.

Llorrente and Herrera, also remember a young Munain being brilliant at the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember being blown away watching it how aggressive and dominant they were in that game Aye they were great fun to watch 👍 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 It's about his influence on other coaches and a distinct style of play more than anything. For example, I often heard Bielsa set the blueprint for Chile's style of play which eventually won them multiple Copa America's. The managers that actually won it for them followed his core principles although not to the extent that Bielsa practices them. And the football is exciting. And he comes across as "barmy". Sarri is a different kettle of fish altogether and not comparable to Bielsa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah fair enough, I don't feel like its a reason to denigrate him though, can still have a big influence over football without the trophies. Tbh I think he's just a bit mad and ends up blowing up the jobs he has. See this sort of thing: ... and told them he'd had an altercation with every builder he'd ever met.

Village Idiot Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Bielsa took Athletic to two finals, lost them both, and then completely blew up the dressing room. He always gives quite the ride. Love him. As others said, he set a blueprint that other less obsessive managers can apply with more flexibility and success. Pep's first years at Barça were very influenced by Bielsa's ideas. Heck, we even set up a scouting team that watched opposition games obsessively, we set up cameras at the Camp Nou that followed certain players exclusively throughout the game to analyze their movements... At one point Pep said that he couldn't keep that level of commitment indefinitely, so he's "eased" on this kind of stuff, but Bielsa is El Loco for something, so he manages to keep going...

I heard on the radio yesterday that there was a room at the Nou Camp with like one way glass, that you could watch the opps training through? have you heard that? Huh, there's loads of one-way windows at the Camp Nou. Whether they have been used to spy on rivals no idea, although I always thought it's unavoidable being watched when you train in the opposition's pitch.
