MARCELO BIELSA has surpassed even his own incredible standards of obsessiveness with his latest teamtalk for the World Cup.
The mind-bogglingly meticulous, “murderball”;-playing, maverick manager told stunned players he had watched their last FIFTY matches as they prepared for Qatar.
And the former Leeds, Argentina and Chile chief wasn’t even assisting a South American nation.
The Argentinian, 67, who is strongly tipped to take over at Bournemouth, helped out POLAND.
Watched by a large crowd at the Legia Warsaw Stadium in Poland, he reportedly unveiled his comprehensive analysis of SIXTY-FIVE Polish stars.
One observer on social media said: “Sounds like the kind of obsession levels Eddie Howe had with analysis and improvement. Would love to see him at Bournemouth.”;
Bielsa is most famous for admitting spying on Championship rivals with Leeds.
He even gave the media a 66-MINUTE powerpoint presentation showing how he had analysed Derby.
No rules were breached but Leeds were fined £200,000 for “failing to act in good faith”; towards rival teams.
Bielsa had even shocked Elland Road chiefs when they first approached him – by revealing he had watched ALL their games the previous season and listed every formation used by their opponents.

His so-called “murderball’ sessions became notorious at Leeds, with players exhausted by the ball being constantly in play.
But Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is among many of Bielsa’s extreme admirers – describing him as the world’s top manager.
