Marcelo Bielsa’s Athletic Bilbao!

Hola amigos,
Despite Argentina’s failure in 2002 and the massive disapointment caused by tiredness and eventually, Bielsa’s stubborness, I guess every argie fan has forgiven el loco.
Raised in a family of politicians and lawyers, Bielsa has appeared to be a very rare specimen on the futbol planet. He is is an intellectual of the game with typical argie creativity in his DNA!
His current club, Athletic Bilbao, has been rocking the European continent with ultra offensive and speedy futbol. Their main star, Llorente, is surrounded by great young talents and fantastic spectators. This season they have important games remaining: the National Cup final against Barca and the Europa League Cup final against Atletico Madrid. Newt week-end, they’ll face Real Madrid in la liga.
What are Bielsa’s secrets to build a team with this always admirable futbol identity?
Vamos Argentina.
