Every week.

The English medium A football He had posted on his website that Bielsa intended to leave his post after what had happened in recent days. The coach was in the eye of the cyclone after the discovery of a spy sent by him to the Derby County drive a few days later. As a result, the authorities responsible for regulating competition have opened an investigation.

Bielsa badumed the fact.

He said, in his lengthy explanation, that he had acted "without consulting" and that his Leeds communique had been made public, recalling the club's "integrity and honesty".

The scandal has led to rumors about the resignation of the coach. But none of this has happened. Argentina was surprised to admit that not only had he spied on Derby County, but he had done so with all his recent rivals and throughout his career. "What I have done is not illegal. We can discuss whether it's okay or not. I know that everything that is legal is not right, and that there are many things that are legal and that are not correct. I watched all the rivals during this season, "he said.

And then, he showed in a projector how he badyzed his rivals without needing to see the training. He even showed how he had badyzed some 52 previous games for Derby County and other rivals.

"Many condemn me saying that what I did was immoral, unethical and that I was violating fair play." Some say it was cheating. The club felt compelled to make a public apology to Derby" he expressed.

"It's a matter of watching from a public space an activity in a private place, which affects fair play.I have already said that I am the only one responsible.The club is not responsible for everything and the person who did it followed my orders. "

"I do not want to mix that with the game. I will badume that my behavior is in an extreme position. We saw all the rivals before playing. My goal is to facilitate the investigation. "

"I do not want to compare my behavior with the previous behavior related to this topic.I have heard that other behaviors affected sportsmanship, but I do not want to defend myself by attacking others. What I have done is not illegal, it is not specified or restricted. "

Salim Lamrani, the professor who has translated Bielsa into each of his lectures since the Lille period, had a serious face. This was not after a victory. It was a message for everyone. He said, translates: "This is not a violation of the law.We can argue whether it is true or false." He added: "Of course, if something is observed without l? authorization of the person involved, we call it espionage. I can not say that it is the right thing to do, but I will try to explain that I had no bad intentions"

Bielsa continued with his reasons: "It is a matter of looking from a public space activity in a private place, which affects fair play. I've already said that I'm the only one responsible. The club is not responsible at all. The person who did it followed my orders. "

He continued, "I do not want to mix that with the game. I'm going to badume that my behavior is in an extreme position. We saw all the rivals before playing. My goal is to facilitate the investigation"

Bielsa had the face of an uncomfortable man. Lamrani looked similar. English football was still talking about crazy words.
