📸 Ever wanted to own a Bielsa Bucket? Well now you can | OneFootball

We’re certain Leeds fans will be flocking to the club store and pretending to be Marcelo Bielsa in their back gardens this week.

That’s because the Championship high-flyers have started selling the ‘Bielsa Bucket’.

Often seen sat on the touchline, the Elland Road manager has been synonymous with the makeshift seat throughout his career and now supporters can have their own.

Selling for £80, according to some fans on social media, the bucket is still sure to be a popular purchase among the Leeds faithful.

The Argentine regularly sits on his bucket, preferring it to standing or his seat way back in the dugout. When asked about the peculiar routine shortly after taking charge of Leeds, he told reporters: “You want me to tell you more than what it is? It’s just a bucket.

“I have nothing to add. It’s a comfortable bucket.”

Rotherham boss Paul Warne, however, was really impressed despite having his own reservations early on.

“Sitting down on that thing’s a bit weird,” Warne said.

“To be honest, when it started, I can’t lie, I was a little bit nervy and I’m thinking, ‘phh, how’s it going to go today?’

“I thought ‘I just need a little sit down for a minute’, but because he’s sitting down, I’m sitting down and I’m waiting for the press to go ‘oh, he’s copying him!’.

“So I thought I’ve got to stand up, stay standing up. I jumped up straight away. But his looks more comfortable than my ice box. It’s a class bit of kit that. I’m pretty impressed.”

And, of course, we can’t talk about the bucket without sharing this from his time at Marseille…

Absolute classic.
