Guardiola and Bielsa ‘speak every day’
Pep is on the phone to him pretty much every day, Danny Mills told talkSPORT. There was a meeting the other day with the directors where Bielsa came out and said ‘Sorry Ive had to put Pep on hold about five times this morning so I felt I had better talk to him.’What he has done is incredible. It is the same group of players. Hes hardly invested anything. He didnt really want anyone in the window.His theory was that by the time theyve got up to speed with his way of playing, to the fitness levels I demand, you are going to be six to eight weeks post window and there will be two games left.Its just not worth the financial risk.Mills also illustrated just how different Bielsa is than other managers and how much Leeds have invested in him. He added: He came to Leeds on a huge contract. More money than any manager has been on at Leeds for some time. They put all their eggs in one basket.He either lives in a little one bedroom flat in Wetherby, just by the training ground, or he sleeps at the training ground.They took about six weeks to haggle over the rent on his one bedroom flat hes on about 4million a year! Hes just different.
