Should we continue Bielsa, Athletic de Bilbao?

In Bilbao there is a feeling ambiguous about Marcelo Bielsa. The Argentine coach was able to lead the team in a single season, two finals, yet the two were defeated by a landslide. Against this background, should continue as head coach Bielsa Basque?

For some time Athletic Bilbao did not have a season like 2011/2012. The Basque ended in the middle of the league table, but he did his best performance in the tops: finalist in the Champions League and Copa del Rey. The first fell by 3 to 0 against Atletico Madrid and the second to FC Barcelona for the same result. Despite the losses, in the stands where fans were during the last final Athletic could hear the chant "Bielsa, stay".

The Argentine coach was able to give identity to the game of Basque side and on that basis did play the decisive stages of the cups, however, in the final stretch of the season, his team was not up to the circumstances: no goals scored in the last 6 games.

This week, as himself said Bielsa, will resolve to continue or being away from the club. The coach met with executives a few days ago the club and so far, will not travel to your country until you confirm your future in relation to the Athletic.

Meanwhile, the club organizes and the preseason with a friendly tournament to be played in Poland where they will play the Slask Wroclaw, PSV and Benfica.
