Playing style

How Marcelo Alberto Bielsa Caldera's teams play vs league-season peers (2016+)

Descriptive — how a coach's teams play, not how good they are.

One shape blending all 2 clubs (2016+).

The baseline — each polygon on the right shows how one club's style deviates from this.

creative · shot-heavy

+0.19style consistency across 2 clubs

More consistent than 52% of multi-club coaches.
