You straddle this line between sports and politics and humour so beautifully, Sarthak. What a lovely profile of Biesla. There is a book of essays that is running towards you with every article you write.
A great homage to one of the greatest lover of the game. As a Mourinho-ista, an adoring fan of Jose Mourinho, the sharp contrast, and yet the pleasant likeliness between these two figures, both calling out the increasing commercialization of the game, strikes at me. Bielsa, deserves more plaudits, and he and the likes of him in Europe like Gasperini, are already put on a pedestal, but managerial magnates like Pep Guardiola, and Jose Mourinho, to name a few. This article does a brilliant job, referring to the role of politics within the belief systems of top coaches, namely Bielsa in this case, and more, and thus humanise these stalwarts. Cheers!
