[Mickethius]

Thanks, I don’t need to sleep anyway

 

[mdingwall]

Use the link instead of talking posh - some poor bassa has typed it all out.

 

[laronde85]

Looks like the page is down for now. Site must be being hammered.

 

[The banter years]

Bloody hell. I tell you what, he is thorough. Forget the spying, the amount of gathered information and succinct breakdowns he can give his squad is brilliant.

 

[Blue Goose]

Basically he's told the press about how Derby do things. I think it's a way of saying GIRFUY to Lampard who called him out. Strange but nutty behaviour.

 

[TAFKA Earl C etc]

From an operational excellence / lessons learned / LfE point of view, this is tremendous stuff from Bielsa and shows the sheer hard work and sports science that goes into preparing to face an opponent.

 

[Superrangers]

As long as they wake up in time for kickoff, they will be ok.

 

[bert]

he is an excellent tactician -the fact that all the top coaches in the world agree and hold him in such high regard. Still find it bizarre he is the Leeds manager - must be getting paid a fortune!

Jim Duffy says his analysis is over the top

There's a reason why one is a brilliant coach and 1 is on radio Clyde

Jim Duffy tactics are easy to follow, if it moves kick it in the stand

 

[ScottXC]

The guy is pure entertainment. Lives and breathes football.

[bert]

its really the clubs fault if you can watch over the training ground from a public road then is it really spying?

 

[bpfurian]

Good manager but a little bit crazy

 

[Monty_greenock34]

Brilliant, if you know your opponent inside out and know what tactical change they are going to make before they have even made it gives u the upper hand.

Its a hell of alot of man hours to gather this info and must be infuriating if u lose a game but if leeds win the league itll be all worth it.

Class act

 

[Baloo72]

Have to say I find the outrage over the spying absolutely hilarious, they have done nothing wrong.

100% ahead to our next game, against that mob from the east, we send someone down to their training with a video camera just to bam them up.

Definitely has to be done for novelty factor

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Jim Duffy LOL

 

[Crackers]

I really don’t get the uproar about this. Surely it’s a top coach covering all angles in a job which he’s getting paid well to win games.

Is there a rule in the football league against this?

 

[Axelrod]

no rule which he is making abundantly clear here

Sounds to me as if it’s a sort of gentleman’s agreement to not do this kind of thing but Bielsa lives for the patter and does what he wants and everyone is getting raging about it. Can’t imagine there’s actually any rules against this as how is it different from watching another teams games?

 

[Sheamaker]

The only thing wrong with all of that is that there is no rules against spying on your opponents training. To me it does make a difference otherwise he wouldn't do it.

The rest of his analysis is incredible and amazing he went through all that with the media. If he was in Scotland he would have been ridiculed as a funny foreigner speaking nonsense.

This is why he is a great manager and the likes of Warburton and his it only matter what we do attitude soon fails.
