The sort off boss most would want!..
Shame he wasn't Cellino's adviser!.
Oh, er, no its not, he's shown he's not that stupid!.
Top man, hope this means his mind is made up to stay!..
The greatest human being in football.
Might not be the best manager, I would argue he is up there, but he has to be the best person.

Compared to managers like warnock and moaurino he is a god.
Warnock was allegedly charging players part of their appearance fee to be picked.
Horrible horrible man.
I think he is rather unique to be honest. For someone clearly so driven in what he does, he manages to cut through the bullsh-t and hypocrisy that plagues most modern day managers. As the manager of a rival team I'm expected to dislike him I suppose, but I just can't. I know there are many on our own club forum that have a deep admiration for him both as a coach and a person too. That's not something easy to achieve and speaks volumes on what he's all about.
There are few managers that I would label as genius or revolutionary, but he's one of them. You're incredibly lucky to have him.

Those two don’t belong in the same paragraph as him regardless of trophies and promotions!
What a virtuous individual in an often-times industry absent if ethics.
I wonder what MB’s response would be to a crowd funding by the fans to reimburse him? I would be happy to contribute to that as I expect many of us would be!
Justice will be done if Leeds go up, MB absolutely deserves that promotion. And if we do go up, be prepared for great things to come for Leeds United.
Bielsa has more integrity in his little finger than we’ve had at our club for last 25 years.
In s sport of overpaid egos, corrupt World Cup bids, cheating, disrespect of contracts etc etc he is an example to us all of integrity, ownership and genuinely caring about the sport.
So proud he’s here.
MB helped some so-called small teams lift cups in Argentina: Newells and Velez. There were one or two 'stars' in those teams, but he managed to help them both play great football just the same. Then he coached Argentina and won 2 olympic medals... both golden ones indeed. Argentina whitewashed all of their opponents in the road to the world cup but they crashed out of it too early, losing to England 1-0 and he's been slagged off in his country since then. He's a great man, uncommonly honest. It would be wicked to see Leeds get promoted... and to see MB coach Argentina again.

I know what you are saying, regarding a manager/coach to a rivalry team.
I "hate" (I really don't hate anybody, because that is too strong a word in my opinion, when it comes to a sport we all love) my neighbour town's hockey team. But last season they got a coach, who was just a nice and sympathetic person. And it kind of just didn't feel right to dislike him.
But hey; take the team shirt away, and we are all just humans And should really treat each other as such. (Well... ,Ok some are truly challenging this notion, I know)
He even paid for spygate from his wallet - that's the kind of conscience this gentleman has.
Maybe we should give AR some well deserved credit for hiring Bielsa and his team. Not cheap but worth every damn penny!
