Bielsa & the Playoffs

In Marcelo Bielsa, we have a world class coach who has managed specifically knock out competition teams in Argentina & Chile. Winning a gold metal with Arg.

Maybe his experience at that level will give us an edge we need.

We need to see the man at his tactical best in the next few weeks.

Bring on the playoffs and hopefully Fat Frank's Derby County in the semis.

There are some top Premier league managers that people could ask what they think off him, I'm sure they know more than anyone about the man who taught them their trade!..

Mind, here's hoping he can just show people what he's about!..

Has he managed a bigger club than Leeds at club level ?

Coaching style is interesting, and the last line says a lot!..

But, if you look its amazing how x-players talk of him!..

If we don't go up, it's a failure for Bielsa. Sorry we can't lose to teams like Wigan, QPR and Bgham etc, It's just not good enough. I still think we will produce the goods for these ridiculous playoffs, which I think are cruel. I think the top 3 should go up full stop automatically.

I've always said top 3 should go up, the 3rd have earned their place throughout the season, the same as the top 2!..

Its just another money grabbing act from the footballing gods!..

If we have failed because of lots of injuries, where does the fault lie. We didn't have a massive squad in the first place. Not getting James was only one player to miss out on. Clearly there has been an under estimation of this league, and Leeds have missed a trick. Bielsa thought this squad was big enough and good enough to go up. Still time to do it, but we should have been doing it a little easier.

This team have done brilliant under Bielsa, problem is for him the players he's done a great job with are not the sort needed to make a better go off it, if he'd had a bit more speed and accuracy in the squad things just might have been a little different!..

We now have a bunch off players that people said last season weren't up to it proving that with the right people in place they are better than people thought!..

Exactly. As you said they've earned 3rd place.

I am certain another chapter in Bielsa’s stay at Leeds is to be written - a glorious playoff success and continued success in the league above - believe it boys and girls🤞

You think Bielsa is the one who signs the players?
