Michael Nolan Jr,
Taken from another page. From a country man of Bielsa.
Hello from Argentina. First of all, sorry for my english is not the best, but at least is better than bielsa´s
![](https://emoji.tapatalk-cdn.com/emoji846.png)
. I'm in this group two months ago.
Why im here? First, because of Bielsa. Second, because i love football, i watch football from all around the world. I like leeds before Bielsa arrive, and even more now.
From the first moment I realized that the fans of leeds united liked bielsa, But I feel that after the press conference the other day, you realized who is Bielsa really. Think about it for a moment, I'm Argentine, what do I do here?
I'm not even a fan of the Newells old boys (Bielsa's team), im a River Plate fan. The answer is because Bielsa is much more than a football coach. It is a way of seeing life, and I'm not exaggerating.
We have Argentines, Chileans, Bilbao fanatics, Marseille fans, watching all the Leeds United games, and even celebrating the goals.I screamed the goals of the leeds this year, as if they were from the river plate.
Some other coach can generate that?. It will happen to you when Bielsa leaves Leeds United. You are going to follow him. Watching Bielsa´s team's matches, wishing him well
Some facts : In Chile, anthropologists, sociologists, analyze the influence of Bielsa in Chilean society. Bielsa modified the self-esteem of Chilean society. When Chile faced Argentina or Brazil, they thought before playing that they would lose. Bielsa, made them believe they could.
He made them believe that they were just as good as them. In fact, they beat us, Argentina, for the first time. That trust was transferred to the entire Chilean society, which began to trust in themselves. Not only in football. what made anthropologists interested in the Bielsa effect on the whole society
That's Bielsa.
In 2007 there were presidential elections in Chile. In a poll conducted 85% of society wanted Bielsa as president of the nation. It is good to clarify that the Chileans above, do not like the Argentines. That´s Bielsa.
Throughout his career Bielsa had an enemy in common. Corporations or monopolies of the press. In Argentina clarin, in bilbao the mail, in Chile the mercury, in england sky. Why? First, Bielsa rarely gives interviews outside of press conferences. The mediatic corporacoines are accustomed to inviting coaches or players to their channels. Bielsa speaks to the press only at conferences, which means that if you are from a local radio, or from the largest media corporation, you have the same opportunity. Clarin, in Argentina, hated that. They criticized him for not going to his television channels for interviews, and he received them only at a press conference with local radio stations. That's bielsa, equality. Regardless if you are an independent media, or a corporation.
He once told a Clarin journalist, one of his phrases that I liked the most : ¨The further away I am from you, and from what you represent, the better person I am¨
Bielsa is more than a football coach. But also as a football coach is the best. Makes a team that finished 13th in the second division of English football, per moment play in the same way as Barcelona or Manchester City.
He made all the Leeds United fans believe that you can also play like Barcelona, ​​that you will play next year in the Premier League, and you are already thinking that Leeds will play an excellent role in the premier league next year. That's bielsa.
If a Bielsa team is winning a match 2 to 0, Bielsa will not take care of the result, will go for the third goal. Running the risk of being tied or complicate the game. He prefers risk before speculation. And that, is not only in a football match, also in life.
In life, you have people who speculate, or you have people who risk everything for what they believe. Bielsa, risk everything for what he believes, me too. That's why Bielsa is more than a football coach, he is a coach of life. Enjoy it, it can last for years or days, with him you never know. Therefore, enjoy every day.
Sorry for the length of my posting, but I wanted to tell you how I feel. In this time I have learned a lot from Leeds, and it is a fascinating club with fans and a huge history.
Not only will you promote the premier league, you will promote playing an incredible football, with honesty, with risk, with ideology, with values.
Greetings, friends. From Argentina
