Leeds fans publish an ad for Bielsa in a Rosario newspaper

Everything that is associated with Marcelo Bielsa it turns out different. It should not be surprising: it is a different coach. They trigger astonishment even the proofs of love that the fans dedicate to him. Now the fans of leeds chose an original way to show the Mad all that it has meant to them.

In the main newspaper of the city where he was born Leo Messi, in La Capital, a striking full-page advertisement appeared, with a title: “Thank you Marcelo”. And also with a text that leaves multiple messages of deep content, ideal to divide it into three parts:

1- “We stand under the sunAugust 1, 2018 hypnotized

for a football that we didn’t know was possible. And we felt something again. You reminded us that football can be beautiful, and that a team can be greater than the sum of its parts. The one next door before oneself. Side before self. And you gave us much more than football…”

2- “… You guided us through of a pandemic and you brought us closer while we were apart. You showed us that integrity and decency matter, both in good times and bad. You accepted our fears and turned our despair into hope, and our footballers into heroes…”.

3- “… You improved us all. You restored our pride, gave us joy, and created precious memories that will last a lifetime. And it was beautiful, Marcelo. And it will always be so beautiful. Thank you”.

Those crazy about Leeds and also about Bielsa decided that the best thing was the coach’s place of origin to express their love and gratitude for a task that included promotion to the Premier League. And they opted for one requested in the most important newspaper in the city. To achieve this, they first appealed to an Irishman who, because of his relationship with Mauricio Pochettino decided to create the “Newells_en” account on Twitter and that ended up becoming the bridge with Nicolás Bloj, a leper fan who managed to round out the publication and who told La Capital all the backstage of the story.

The fans of leeds They paid for that notice that does not include the signatures of the authors and that does not mention the Bielsa surname anywhere. Why? Because, as explained Bloj to La Capital, it is not necessary to say who writes or highlight their addressee. They are different phenomena that can only be caused by a different coach.
