It's almost *THE FESTIVE SEASON* again, so can I please recommend that you buy some Bielsa-era Leeds artwork for the obsessive weirdo in your life? Link to my redbubble store is in the replies.

Other than perhaps Klopp and Guardiola no Premier League manager had more credit in the bank than Dyche and Bielsa, and yet both were unceremoniously booted out the minute things got tough. It's trite, but the 'no loyalty in football' aphorism has never rung truer.
