Bielsa as good as Mourinho,says Man Utd Legend Cantona

Thegoalmac can reveal that Man Utd legend Eric Cantona says Chelsea coach Jose Mourinho and current Marseille boss Marcelo Bielsa are very similar in their style and character.

I have always been a huge fan of Mr Bielsa,his teams attacking style of play and doggedness has always stood him out.

I know he is one of Pep Guardiola's mentors,and also was the coach of the Athletic Bilbao team that beat Man Utd home and away in Europa league a couple of seasons ago.

 So it doesn't come to me as a surprise that his team Marseille is topping their league in France with four points advantage to almighty PSG.Continue for what what Mr Eric said.
"I do not support Marseille much, but I like Bielsa," Cantona told France 2. "I think he has... character. He has a personality, charisma. He knows good football.

"He's a bit like Mourinho. I like all those guys. When there is a press conference with Bielsa or Mourinho, we know that something will happen.

"I like to hear them speak. I like that they call into question the opinions and questions of journalists."

He added: "They back their players, even if they are in the wrong. There is always something going on in their press conferences and it does not prevent them from winning and having great teams."
