MB on Lampard: “All the info I need to plan a game I gather without the necessity of having to go & watch the opponent train. So why did I send? Because I thought I was not violating a norm.†#lufc
MB explain how a coach’s mind works: “You have around 20 people who create a volume of information. Not all of which is necessary. So why? Because we feel guilty if we don’t work enough, reduces anxiety ... & in my case because I’m stupid enough to allow myself this behaviour.â€
MB shows us how he analyses opponent without watching training. He talks about analysis ....
MB says he watchesâ€d all 51 games of Derby last year (4 hours work) . “We do it as professional behaviour so we are not ignorant about the competition.†#lufc
MB going into detail on his homework on Derby #lufc
MB: “I can’t speak English but I can speak about the 24 teams of The Championship.... as you can see my aim is to compare Derby then & now. To analyse one game takes 4 hours.†#lufc
MB: “I feel ashamed to have to tell you all this.†#lufc
MB goes into mega detail on Derby’s tactics - the % use of formations & personnel over their 31 games. “ #lufc
The point is Bielsa knew before the game what type of systems Derby would use. #lufc
