Leeds United coach Marcelo Bielsa's Derby County analysis dossier was "pretty standard for the industry", according to the head of sports data giant OptaPro.
The revered Bielsa found himself in hot water ahead of the Championship leaders' 2-0 win over Derby when he admitted to sending a club official to watch Frank Lampard's team train, with the man involved having been caught by police, in what has become dubbed "spygate".
Lampard – and others – criticised Bielsa after his confession, leading to the Argentine coach taking the curious decision to call a news conference on Wednesday in which he outlined the stunning scope of his pre-match preparations and research on opponents as part of a lengthy PowerPoint presentation, something he said he does to give himself peace of mind.
