Marcelo Bielsa

[Sharpies volley]

Our players are not fit enough to play the Bielsa way. We'd play one game and be stiff as boards for the rest of the season.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

No one in our midfield could not do what leeds did/do... Maybe Onana could but adapting to Bielsas style would be a disaster at this stage in the season.

I think Iwobi could do it, his running stats have been huge at times and he’s decent at quick pass and move
Onana I think could adapt but would make loads of mistakes in the next few months if it happens

 

[AmericanBlue]

He would be the right choice, experience and if don’t make it he will be right person to get us back up. His football is not too hard to watch either.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Let's do it

May as well go down fighting

 

[Sweeneytoad]

These players would lash him under the bus after his first training session.

@TheBigIguana used to be a big fan of him, not sure how that’s going.

I don't know how you watch what they're doing now and see a massive difference from Bielsa.

What's even more baffling is describing Bielsa as proper ball when his style of play is literally basketball on a football field with extra meth.

I'm thinking about the high constant pressing element of Bielsas style to be fair. I think Iwobi might not be the best at that, but the pass and move part, I agree he could do well

The man sits on a bucket FFS. Why don't we just appoint Oor Wullie.

I HATE that bucket

 

[Tramps_mate]

I don't think he's the right man for the job at the moment..

 

[Shibbywiggles]

I HATE that bucket

Get some high intensity wins at Goodison by out scoring and out fighting the opposition and we’ll all be buying buckets to sit on at home

 

[Shibbywiggles]

These players would lash him under the bus after his first training session.

Hoping he has the ability to lash them out the club immediately instead and replace them with lads who give a crap

 

[Moderatelywarmwater]

I don't think he's the right man for the job at the moment..

My concern too….

we can’t support him in playing his football by buying new players..
he’s got no time to work with the team.
If it doesn’t click right away we are in serious trouble. (Well, even more serous trouble anyway)

and he’s stark raving mad.

which is a positive, as no one sane would take the job.

 

[kiss the crest]

Thing is with his teams, he will get them fit and other teams will know they have been in a game, I would sooner get beat with some fight than do what we are doing now, just getting beat and watching them all just walk around passing sideways and backwards

 

[jinkyali]

He's be looking at some of the younger lads for his style imho.

Mills is ex Cross Country champion
Price can get about.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Honestly, yesterday I was completely dejected thinking about the future of our club. I couldn’t see how we could ever enjoy watching this team let alone how we’d avoid relegation.
This link has completely clicked with me. I can see it working perfectly. Leeds are a similarly proud lot with passionate fans and a history and Bielsa restored pride they hadn’t had for a long time.
No other names link excite me. Dyche might fight to keep us up but it’s not exciting and likely sees another fan revolt in a year when the football doesn’t improve.

Roll the mad Bielsa dice please mad Iranian accountant (and also sack Bill whilst you’re at it, sound)
