Marcelo Bielsa vs The Damned United: The Extraordinary Story of a Club Reborn *SIGNED EDITION*
As a loyal fan, I lived and breathed two unforgettable seasons at Leeds United, which ended with our triumphant return to the Premier League after a painful 16-year hiatus. Marcelo Bielsa, a titan among football managers, swiftly turned our middling squad into prospective title winners, propelling us to the Championship's zenith.
But, believe it or not, the biggest hurdle was the club he was there to resurrect - a club where controversy and commotion are par for the course. The notorious 'Spygate' fiasco threw us off course, and our season culminated in a heartbreaking, calamitous stumble at the finish line. The following year, Bielsa braved more drama, more chaos, and when we were inches away from the finish line once more, a global pandemic threw a wrench in the works.
In this book, I've tried to capture the essence of Bielsa's singular genius and the relentless rollercoaster that Leeds fans have had to endure - utterly devoted to our manager, electrified by his style of football, and frequently driven to the edge by a tumultuous two-year promotion race.
