Marcelo Bielsa: The Crazy Genius Who Took Leeds Back To The Premier League

[@j.m.e.9159]

Marcelo Bielsa was the reason my national team " Chile " won the Copa America 2 finals in a row against a good Argentinian national team with Messi included. It's true Leeds-U should feel lucky to have a legend like him. He wanted to coach in England and he could have coached one of the top power house teams but he choose Leeds -U for a reason. He is passionate about bringing teams back to greatness again.

[@alexfarnell3200]

@@stevenclark6209 well I think it's extremely unlikely for him to leave just after this season, and if we achieve this season whilst still not earning promotion, I'm sure he will see out his contract for next season, with a good chance of it happening next season. You only have to look at the influence he is having and work he is doing through the training ground changes, as well as change of players productivity on the pitch

I love how in the beginning of the video the presenter glosses over his titles in Argentina. South American club football isn't great today, but it was a great honor to win titles in Brazil and Argentina during the early 90's. That's way more impressive than say Swansea winning the League Cup. Looking at Bielsa, he's such a quirky guy, I don't think he would manage a "big" club. It seems that he enjoys projects where he can instill his style of football. As some have stated, he's the reason why Chile, which had been irrelevant since the time of Salas and Zamorano, ended up winning the Copa America.
