Bielsa! :prayer:

 

Marcelo Bielsa had a question. The new Leeds manager wanted to find out how hard the average supporter had to work to pay for a ticket to watch the team. How many hours did he or she have to put in? It was unclear what kind of calculations went into the answer but one was provided. It would be about three.

 

So the Argentinian called his players together and he told them that, for the next three hours, they would be picking up litter from around the club’s Thorp Arch training ground. He wanted them to learn a lesson; to appreciate how the fans laboured to fulfil their passion.

 

He runs his forefinger across various surfaces at Thorp Arch to check for dust, invariably being appalled at what he finds, while he once inquired why there was a bootprint on a wall – about half a yard from the floor.

 

It was explained to him that, perhaps, it was the result of somebody leaning back against it, with his or her foot up. “That shows the person is not concentrated on their work! Unacceptable!” Bielsa exclaimed.

 

Bielsa was the No 1 candidate. After what amounted to a job interview in Buenos Aires with the managing director, Angus Kinnear, and Orta, he became the only candidate. Kinnear and Orta had wanted to know how well he knew the Championship. Bielsa delved into his copious notes and began his response by detailing the respective teams in formation from last season’s Burton v Bolton game.

 

Then, he went through every formation Burton and Bolton had used throughout the season and, after that, he did likewise for every other club in the division. Bielsa could say, for example, how many times a team had played 4-3-3, 4-4-2 or 3-5-2. He had even calculated the probability for one formation to beat another. The story of how Kinnear and Orta reacted has gone around Elland Road. They are said to have looked at each other, shrugged and agreed it was a pretty good answer.

É o maior.

Já me esquecia do Bielsa! :lol:

Começa amanha o show frente ao despromovido Stoke

[Nuk]

Ver o Everton jogar tira-me anos de vida. Precisamos urgentemente de dois centrais e um Médio centro. É medonho ver a equipa a defender faz lembrar o ultimo ano do Martinez

[Simeone]

Não percebo todo esse desespero do Mourinho por reforços. O United, mesmo não sendo o melhor plantel do campeonato, tem uma equipa perfeitamente válida para lutar pelo título. A meu ver, se queriam subir de nível era trocando o treinador.

[FabioK]

Aquela defesa mete medo ao susto. E so se comprou o dalot que é previsível que nao agarre ja o lugar.

 

Mas sim é verdade. Do meio campo para a frente chega e sobra, so falta talvez um avancado para o banco
