Hi, I've been prompted out of lurking....
The translation by Salim is excellent. Note that Bielsa not only speaks Argentinian Spanish, it's usually very technical (from a football point of view) and then Salim has to get the balance right between the local football speak and what is actually said - in seconds. I listened to pieces of what MB said - and there's little or nothing I'd have changed.
