The Manchester United manager has often been criticised for not having a definite style of football, but Bielsa insisted that the Red Devils have done something that is very hard to achieve – simplifying their tactics.
He stressed that Manchester United’s style is easy to break down but insisted that it is a compliment as simplifying the tactics and playing to their strengths is a lot harder to do than it sounds.
Bielsa
said in a press conference:
“The more simple the football is, the better it is. This principle is supported when the players do what they should do and what they are best doing.
“In this sense, Man United is an example of this.
“They do what they know best how to do and this has permitted them to create a style. That the game is simple to decipher.
“This is praise because to be able to play simple is very difficult and when we achieve it is very satisfying.”
