"I've been in this position and, to be honest, the general reaction [in the industry] It is surprising that he did it this way, but none of the elements he presented or commented on surprised those who are in the game, because, in various forms, everyone does it. .
"What has been the biggest surprise, is the great attention that this has, simply because from our point of view inside the game, it is the daily life for us. Every club in every league in the world does some form of what Bielsa showed at this press conference.
"Spying on the opposition and attending training sessions is not a shock, it's something nobody talks about, but it will not surprise anyone.
"The most important thing that surprised me and that I talked to people about is how engaged they are and how much attention the press [it has received] and the tone of this attention. This obviously opened the eyes to people about what's happening, day-to-day.

"What do people expect to happen? Do they think that the club is a good Saturday and that he is surprised?" by the team in front of them? I do not think it was a particular shock to anybody [in the game]maybe just the way it's taken, certainly at a press conference is different.
"But, with respect to the content that he showed, it was not a shock." The level of detail in which they entered is pretty standard for the industry.
"This sport has been evolving in professional football for 20 years and each club now has an badysis department.
"It's happening under the radar, away from fans' eyes, it's not like people are aware of it, they're probably more so in rugby and in American sports than in football."
