I am 100% behind Jesse but I agree that Bielsa transcended football and made
what happened both on and off the field different and made us special . We are
now just any mid table team ( though with a more fanatical old school fan base)
- expect more time wasting , taking the ball to the corner flag , play acting
and arguing with refs and opponents- expect 70 mins of the ball in play not
aiming for 90mins - all things that may help us amass points but things we all
hate when the other side do it.
Back to normal football and not the magic (albeit sometimes tragic ) Bielsaball
I have just totally revamped my front room and my Bielsa statue has been given
a prominent place - he will always have my affection in a way no other manager
ever has or ever will ?
Special times
Would he have kept us up - who knows but with games v Norwich and Watford and
the return of players I do believe he would have , but academic now.
Up to Jesse to keep us up ( looking very possible now) and to build us for the
future and maybe challenge for a cup or a Europa league place ?
The king has gone , long live the king
