Happy Birthday Marcelo
Thanks for all you've done for us
You're almost a Leo, so you'll just have to aspire to greatness rather than being born to it

Re: Marcelo Bielsa
Marcelo Bielsa quote of the week.
When a young player shines, it is the players with experience who notice it immediately. Even if they don't say it, they make you notice it.

Re: Marcelo Bielsa's secret weapon
Professional footballers should be comfortable playing the ball with either foot.
It's amazing how many of them are one-footed.

Re: O'Leary vs Bielsa
IMO the O’Leary team 99 times out of 100
However, for context Cjay perhaps you ought to also put how much £££ it cost to put each of those teams together.

Dolly without doubt for me, especially if I can transfer Rapha for Kewell.

Re: O'Leary vs Bielsa
BTW, Nigel Martyn was a very unlucky world class keeper kept out by Seaman, years before 2 class keepers in Shilton & Clemence alternated, which would have seen NM with more deserved caps than he actually got.

Re: O'Leary vs Bielsa
I actually had worked out the cost of the O'Learu team before posting using an inflation calculator.Muppet the Cat wrote: ↑Fri Dec 03, 2021 7:05 pm IMO the O’Leary team 99 times out of 100

I have posted it now.
But the thing is football has moved on a lot.
I haven't worked out the total cost but id imagine the Bielsa one is more expensive
