No announcement of Marcelo Bielsa's backroom staff yet but he'll have some old allies around him - Pablo Quiroga, Diego Reyes, Diego Flores, Salim Lamrani, people like that. #lufc

De tre førstnevnte er tre av fire i hans 'The Iron Circle' :)

eg antar at de fleste av disse fire i "The Iron Circle" kommer sammen med Marcelo...

Bielsa has a coaching staff as part of his team referred to as 'The Iron Circle'. Wonder if Pablo Quiroga, Diego Reyes, Diego Flores and Gabriel Macaya will join? Also interesting article, that he started working for Lille before they appointed him. #LUFC

all four of these staff will be joining Bielsa at Leeds. Have worked with him at previous clubs (Bilbao, Marseille, Lille). Likely to be one further addition to the backroom team too.

Marcelo Bielsa's trusted backroom staff profiled as Leeds United boss gets set to confirm coaching team


The new Leeds head coach's assistants are yet to be confirmed - but he is likely to bring some real characters with him

ByJoe Mewis

A look at Marcelo Bielsa's 'hardcore' pre-season regime as the new Leeds United boss gets down to work

Marcelo Bielsa was finally confirmed as Leeds United manager on Friday morning after a protracted period of negotiations between the two parties.
The former Chile and Argentina boss has signed an initial two-year deal at Elland Road, becoming the club's highest-ever paid manager as Leeds secured one of the managerial coups of the summer.


Bielsa is due to fly into England shortly and get cracking in the role, alongside his sizeable team of backroom staff.

While the make-up of his assistants has not been confirmed it is believed that the likes of Pablo Quiroga, Diego Reyes, Diego Flores and Salim Lamrani, who worked with him at Lille will all be involved.
With Bielsa so meticulous in his preparation, this support team is vital and his staff must prove to be just as hard working as Bielsa, with Chilean outlet Inafhost claiming that Bielsa and his staff have tasked hopefuls with analysing 150 matches in video form as part of the interview process.
We will know more about the exact make-up of Bielsa staff in the coming days, but here is a look at four of his most trusted assistant, which include some typically fascinating characters.

Pablo Quiroga - coach, video analysis

 
Pablo Quiroga first linked up with Bielsa in Chile
The 36-year-old Argentinian has worked with Bielsa since his days in charge of the Chilean national team and specialises in video analysis and physical training.
Originally a PE teacher, Quiroga met Bielsa through a mutual acquaintance and quickly struck up a working relationship, with Quiroga even acting as Bielsa's own personal trainer tasked with helping his boss lose weight, according to a report in Le Phoceen.
Has followed Bielsa in every job since their days in Chile and also acts as generational link between Bielsa and his players.


Diego Reyes - coach

Perhaps Bielsa's most trusted lieutenant, the 37-year-old Chilean introduced himself to Bielsa at the Chile training complex while doing research for his master's degree in 2008, with Bielsa assisting Reyes with questions about French technical directors and youth training.
The pair got talking, built up a relationship and the Nacimiento-born coach soon began to edit Bielsa's precious video clips.

Reyes is described as a serious, hard working and professional student of the game, which is likely why him and Bielsa got on, with Reyes soon working his way into the Argentinian's inner-circle, becoming a close collaborator on the tactical side, following him from the Chile job into Europe, working with Bielsa at Athletic Bilbao, Marseille and Lille.
Chilean newspaper El Mercurio describes the pair as 'inseparable'.


Diego Flores - coach

Another assistant coach, and another much younger associate of Bielsa's. The 37-year-old Flores is another Argentinian, who had a stint studying in Ireland before he linked up with Bielsa at Marseille and has remained part of his entourage since.

 
Expect to see the laptop out on the Elland Road bench
Flores will often provide spend matches glued to his laptop, handing Bielsa in-game notes.


Salim Lamrani - translator
Descirbed by Le Monde as 'the most overqualified man in Ligue 1' during Bielsa's time at Lille, Lamrani is as fascinating a character as you'd expect Marcelo Bielsa to associate himself with.
Lamrani has no background in either football or translation, but is instead an academic, specialising in relations between Cuba and the USA. A prolific author with a number of published books to his name, Lamrani has also spoken in Cuba, England, Belgium, Italy, Spain, Boliva, and the USA alongside the likes of Noam Chomsky, Kev Livingstone and Howard Zinn.
 
A multilingual Marseille fan, Lamrani had written extensively about Bielsa and his admiration for the coach during his time at the Velodrome and would chose to leave his position as a lecturer at the University of Reunion to work with Bielsa at Lille after the pair had previous met in South America and clicked.

Bielsa is extremely guarded in his relationship with the media, refusing to do one-on-one interviews, with this quote from Romain Laplanche's 2017 biography on Bielsa, The Mystery Bielsa, explain the importance of having a trusted translator: "It is no wonder that he is appealing to him. Bielsa's language is very precise and precise, it is cultivated and has a particular rhetoric.

 
"I think he wants this rhetoric to be respected. When Bielsa speaks to the press, he considers that he speaks to supporters through the media, so he wants to be clear that his speech is not distorted."
As well as being at Bielsa's side for every press conference during his spell at Lille, Lamraini also acts as a translator for Bielsa and non-Spanish speaking players.

Price makes switch from rivals Hull City to join Bielsa ‘revolution’ at Leeds United

Leeds United have recruited Hull City’s Rob Price as their new head of medicine and performance.


Price, a former England and Liverpool employee, is to oversee United’s conditioning and physiotherapy in a new role created at Elland Road.

Price worked as a physio for the Football Association between 2001 and 2005 and was part of Liverpool’s backroom team for seven years after being appointed by Rafael Benitez.

Leeds have retained the services of head physio Steve Megson, whose existing role is unaffected by Price’s arrival, but have charged Price with managing the medical set-up at Thorp Arch.

Price worked as a physio for the Football Association between 2001 and 2005 and was part of Liverpool’s backroom team for seven years after being appointed by Rafael Benitez.

He moved onto Hull in 2012 but has chosen to take up a post with Leeds despite receiving an offer of work from Manchester City.

Spaniard Ruben Crespo is also leaving his role as Hull’s fitness coach to take up a similar position at Thorp Arch.

The changes come on the back of Marcelo Bielsa’s appointment as head coach 10 days ago.

Bielsa has made significant changes to Leeds’ coaching team, bringing in assistants Pablo Quiroga, Diego Reyes and Diego Flores and translator Salim Lamrani. The Argentinian’s first press conference on Monday was translated from Spanish by Englishman Phil Dickinson but Lamrani, who worked with Bielsa at Lille, will act for him during future media briefings.

Bielsa was also planning to recruit a specific fitness coach, though Gabriel Macaya – part of the 62-year-old’s team during his last job at Lille – was not considered for the role in England.

I klubben siden 2015:

Leeds United can reluctantly confirm the departure of Steve Megson from the role of Head Physio at the Club.

Megson has been associated with the club for over a decade, officially taking the role of Head Physio in 2015.

Managing Director Angus Kinnear said, “We are disappointed to lose Steve but we understand his reasons for leaving to undertake a new challenge and we wish him well, he will remain greatly respected by all at Leeds United.”

Club Captain Liam Cooper said, “On behalf of the first team squad I would like to place our thanks to Meggo on record for everything he has done for us all. His professionalism and hard work is evident every day and we are all extremely sad to see him leave. We wish him well in his new venture and look forward to seeing him back at Elland Road in the future”.

Leeds United: Physio’ Price seems right man for new boss Bielsa

Phil Hay
Published: 06:00 Thursday 02 August 2018

Marcelo Bielsa’s idea of the optimal squad boils down to quality over quantity and it was he who told Leeds United that there were 15 players they could do without this season. Bielsa is keeping the body count to a minimum at Thorp Arch, trusting in the durability of his select core.


Existing like that in the Championship depends on certain levels of discipline and fitness, two factors which let Leeds down last season. The job of eradicating the recklessness which yielded eight red cards falls to Bielsa alone but the physical care of United’s squad is in the hands of Rob Price, the club’s head of medicine and performance.

Price held the same position at Hull City, the team he left in June to take up a newly-created role at Elland Road. Leeds have countless staff at every level of the game devoted to physiotherapy but they asked Price to oversee the entire structure and maximise the standards of rehabilitation and conditioning.

At Hull he had a reputation for the high quality of his rehab process. Price oversaw Robert Snodgrass’ recovery from complex surgery carried out on a horrible injury in which the former Leeds winger dislocated a knee cap and damaged multiple ligaments.

“The way they train you back up is unbelievable,” Snodgrass said of Hull’s physio staff.

Price had worked previously for the Football Association and with Rafael Benitez at Liverpool before moving to Hull in 2012. In all, he has been in English bootrooms for the past 17 years.

“My whole thing is ‘can we provide the best amount of care for the players?’” Price told the YEP. “The more we have players available and on the pitch, the more it’s going to help the team be successful.

“But also, can we push boundaries? Can we get players back F***er and can we get players back faster? Can we get them to be more robust this season to challenge in the Championship?

“There’s always a balance in the return of any player in getting them back quickly and getting them back so that injuries don’t reoccur but I’m proud of some of the stats in my career, in departments I’ve been involved in.

“We’ve managed to get players back quickly and our injury rates have been low. That’s what we’re aiming for here as well.”

As sports science has evolved the people behind it have changed too. A fortnight ago, after two years of study, Price graduated with a masters degree in sporting directorship at Manchester Metropolitan University. He had no interest in becoming a sporting director, the job held by Victor Orta at Leeds, but sought to improve his leadership skills, understand the needs of a sporting director better and expose himself to the workings of other sports.

“Lots of people from lots of different sports were on the course, from equestrian and swimming to rugby,” Price said. “We visited these different places and all these sports to bring in the best ideas and practice into what we do.

“I’ve spent the last few years trying to develop my management style and myself as more of a leader, as opposed to the medical qualifications I’ve got. At a football club it’s not just about working one on one. I manage a group of people and the medical department at Leeds isn’t just me. It’s lots and lots of people that work behind the scenes, with the first team, the academy and right down to the kids just coming in.

“You’re dealing with individuals, you’re dealing with players with different needs and personality styles which you’re trying to adapt to. And these days you’ve got to report upwards to the sporting director, the chief executive and the owner about what’s going on. Your management and communication skills are important.

“I’m not going to be a sporting director, that’s not my role, but I was there to be around these people. They can tell you what they’re after from your department, and from the medicine and science.”

Professional clubs are awash with tools for analysis: GPS trackers, heart-rate monitors, performance software and constant measurements of weight and body fat. Impact injuries are difficult to pre-empt but attention is given to guarding against and reducing soft-tissue damage, the type of injury a club can control.

There is, seemingly, no end to the innovation despite the many advances in performance. “There’s masses of ground to go yet,” Price said. “There are a lot of innovation groups and I’m part of a few in the UK where we meet and discuss things. You see what goes on in UK athletics and especially British Cycling.

“Their (British Cycling’s) innovation department have tried to push things forward and there are little parts of that we try to bring in.

“In the last 10 years the amount of sprints and high-speed activity that take part in a game, the accelerations and decelerations, the load that goes through the body, it’s all increased by a great amount. The players are actually a different athlete to what they were 10 years ago so taking care of those athletes means preparing them well to be exposed to it all.

“What you find now is that players are really professional. A lot of them take such good care of themselves.

“We’re able to use the latest technology, the best consultants, the best imagery that’s around, and you’ve got to think that all of that package helps to keep players out there.”

Bielsa needs reliability on that front and for all the Argentinian’s profile and expertise, many hands will shape the season ahead.

Leeds’ former head physiotherapist, Steve Megson, resigned shortly after Price arrived and has been replaced by his assistant, Henry McStay. Fitness coach Ruben Crespo followed Price from Hull to Elland Road. Price has the authority, and also the responsibility, to oversee the maintenance of the squad beneath Bielsa and in that context, few roles seem more crucial.

“It’s a long, long way from the most important job at the club,” Price said. “I’m just one of the people in the background and this might be the last time you ever hear from me.

“I just prefer to try and make things run as smoothly as they can, away from the limelight.”

Footage of Marcelo Bielsa's translator taking part in an amusing post-match interview with the Leeds United boss at Elland Road has gone viral.


But just who is the eloquent linguist at the Argentine's side?


Transfer deadline day LIVE at Leeds United
Salim Lamrani is French historian, author and lecturer who hadn't worked in football before meeting Bielsa a year ago.


New Leeds United 2018-19 away kit revealed
Marseille fan Lamrani first became known to Bielsa when he published several articles about him during his spell managing the French club. The pair were then introduced in South America, and Bielsa offered him a job as his translator when he moved to Lille in September 2017. They've been inseparable ever since, with Lamrani moving to the UK seven weeks ago to continue in his translation role.

The academic is a world-recognised expert on relations between Cuba and the USA, having written several books on the subject. He has lectured at American universities and spoken at conferences all over the world - but had never been a professional translator before his involvement with Spanish-speaking Bielsa.


The pair's deadpan exchange in a post-match interview following the team's victory over Stoke City was a huge hit with fans.

Bielsa highlights important role of Corberan to Leeds United

Published: 12:18 Tuesday 14 August 2018



 WINNING TEAM: From left, Carlos Corberan and Marcelo Bielsa as Jamie Shackleton awaits his Leeds United debut in Saturday's 4-1 win at Derby County. Picture by Jonathan Gawthorpe.

LEEDS UNITED head coach Marcelo Bielsa has hailed the influence of under-23s coach Carlos Corberan, describing the Spaniard as "very important" to his Whites.


Corberan became under-23s head coach when replacing Jason Blunt in June 2017 and the 35-year-old has been close to Bielsa on the touchline of United's first two Championship games against Stoke City and Derby County.

Midfielder Jamie Shackleton, the latest graduate from Corberan's under-23s and Whites academy, was brought on as second half substitute during Saturday's 4-1 triumph at Derby to replace a tired Mateusz Klich with Bielsa revealing Corberan's work meant Shackleton was able to slot straight into the side.


Bielsa has also applauded the influence of Corberan for Northern Ireland international Stuart Dallas being brought on to replace Klich in centre midfield in the opening weekend success against Stoke.

"He's very important," said Bielsa, asked about the role of Corberan.


"This information is supported by reality.

"Because during the first game, Dallas when he got in, resolved a situation we had at that moment of the game.

"And in the last game against Derby, a player who was much younger (Jamie Shackleton) had the responsibility to resolve the same situation we had, or a similar one.


"So this readiness to adapt to necessities has been seriously developed by Carlos.

"He is a very important person for us because he brings to the team players we need and players who come from the academy.

"Players in the academy are a very important ingredient for the team.

"We already have in the first-team players from the academy."

Darren Arnott hentes inn for å forsterke U-23 laget på trenersiden. Ortas og Rads satsing på unge, sultne spillere begynner å bære frukter.

Verdt å merke seg at det er de unge britiske spillerne som ser ut til å ta steget inn på A-laget først. Jeg trodde kanskje importene av unggutter fra kontinentet (bl.a fra Real Madrid og Barcelona) skulle være de som slo gjennom først, men dette har ikke skjedd så langt. Greit signal å sende til de unge talentene på balløya at Leeds er stedet hvor de kan gå gradene med et trenerapparat av høy kvalitet, og hvor de får spille offensiv og tidsriktig fotball.

Det med de britiske vs kontinentale har jeg ikke tenkt på men er faktisk sant og veldig, veldig viktig når det gjelder rekrutteringen av nye britiske talenter.   :)

Full list of Marcelo Bielsa's backroom staff at Elland Road

 Marcelo Bielsa.
Marcelo Bielsa.
Marcelo Bielsa, equipped with his bucket and an unreadable gaze, is rapidly becoming the most recognisable man in Leeds. But who are the staff behind him in the dug-out and which coaches make up the substantial backroom team Bielsa has put together at Elland Road? Here is an overview of the hierarchy beneath him at Thorp Arch:


Pablo Quiroga - assistantt

Quiroga, a fellow Argentinian who was born near Buenos Aires, has been a long-time ally of Bielsa’s in club football. Having worked with him first with Chile’s national team, he was part of Bielsa’s staff at Athletic Bilbao, Marseille and Lille and a guaranteed inclusion in his corp at Leeds United. Now 36, Quiroga started out as a PE teacher and had only minor experience in amateur football before Bielsa first enlisted him as his “virtual blackboard”, to quote one South American journalist. His talent is in video analysis.

Diego Reyes - assistant

Chilean Reyes, 37, is an out-and-out coach and the man who took the initial training sessions at Lille after Bielsa’s appointment as manager. The pair have been together since 2008 when Bielsa drafted him into the fold with Chile and he is arguably Bielsa’s most trusted lieutenant. The story went that an unknown Reyes turned up at the complex where Chile were training and asked for work. Bielsa gave him video clips to edit and their relationship developed quickly to the point where Reyes became part of the Argentinian’s ‘iron circle’ of assistants. He has followed the 63-year-old to every job since.

Diego Flores - assistant

A technical coach who has been on the scene for a considerably shorter time than Quiroga and Reyes. Flores, also 37, linked up with Bielsa for the first time at Marseille after leaving Argentina to study in Ireland. Bielsa kept him in tow when he took the head coach’s position at Lille and brought him to England too.

Carlos Corberan - first team coach/development coach

Very prominent in Bielsa’s technical area throughout the summer and since the start of the season. Corberan, who was recruited to coach Leeds’ Under-23s last season, has been moulded into something of a go-between at Thorp Arch. United say he is “integral to the first-team set-up” - as proven by the fact that he has been present at every game and involved in Bielsa’s training sessions - but will retain “special responsibility for creating a pathway for the Under-23s and Under-18s, and ensuring consistency of football philosophy”. Corberan gained managerial experience in Cyprus and Middle East but is better known in his homeland of Spain for a long stint as Villarreal’s number two. He has the advantage of being able to speak Spanish and English.

Salim Lamrani - translator

Lamrani is not, or was not, a football man by trade. A multilingual university lecturer specialising in Iberian and Latin American Studies, he has written at length about relations between Cuba and the United States and was described in one newspaper as being “one of France’s best connoisseurs on Cuba”.

He appeared alongside Bielsa at Lille, accompanying the Argentinian to every press conference and working as his translator. Lamrani is a lifelong Marseille supporter and took a keen interest in Bielsa’s work during his time as head coach there, writing once how Bielsa had “offered the French championship the most beautiful football of the last 20 years.” The pair met in South America while Lamrani was lecturing and Bielsa invited the Frenchman to join him at Lille where he provided translation for both Bielsa and some of the players.

Bielsa has a certain way with the media, refusing all one-on-one interviews in the belief that no individual writer deserves to hear more from him than any other. He is in the process of learning English but Lamrani, on Bielsa’s first appointment in this country, has had the job of getting his message across, sitting with him at all of his pre-match and post-match press conferences.

Marcos Abad - goalkeeping coach

Drafted in after the appointment of Thomas Christiansen, replacing Darryl Flahavan, and survived the culls of staff which followed the sackings of Christiansen and Paul Heckingbottom. Abad never played professionally but he has a UEFA Pro licence and was goalkeeping coach for Elche and Middlesbrough - on both occasions as part of a team which included Leeds’ director of football Victor Orta - before arriving at Elland Road.

Benoit Delaval - fitness coach

Delaval is a French fitness coach who evidently impressed Bielsa during the Argentinian’s short and torrid spell as Lille’s boss. Delaval’s history with Lille went back much further - 12 years back, to 2006 - and he has been working in professional football throughout his career having studied sports science in Clairefontaine, France’s national football centre. He stayed on at Lille after Bielsa’s dismissal last December but came to Leeds in the summer after Bielsa decided not to enlist his long-standing fitness expert, Gabriel Macaya. According to Delaval’s LinkedIn profile, he earned a UEFA A licence in 2011.

Ruben Crespo - fitness coach

Another fitness coach who came to Leeds from Hull City in June. He was Hull’s head of fitness for 18 months having originally joined the club in 2016. His CV shows prior stints in Thailand and Russia, where he worked for Torpedo Avarmir. He grew up and studied in Spain at universities in La Coruna and Vigo.

Jorge García Valera - analyst

Valera is a Spanish analyst whose last job was at Atletico Madrid. Levante had employed him previously. He is another new addition to the backroom team.
