Trouble is its not a exact science, we've failed with plenty of "percentage" managers in the past and we've not yet failed this season.
Personally I like the way the Club/Team is shaping up and I can't think of any managers that would have got more out of the players than we have seen this season.
Whatever happens I believe we are building a future, its not just about the first team I feel infrastructure is been developed, we are a Club again.
So to answer the question, Bielsa and his team all day long for me.
And to add when we do go up under Bielsa we will stay there, the other method we would be relegation candidates, lets do it right.

Bielsa every time. All we need is a striker. Have been following the Everton v Arsenal game. Everton sold their striker last year (like us) and didn't replace him. They should be 4 - 0 up against Arsenal but are only 1 - 0 up, and that goal was scored by a defender. Both Leeds and Everton need about 15 -20 chances for each goal.

I would add after the goalkeeper the Striker/main scorer is the most specialist position on the field (why they cost more).

No brainer for me Bielsa hands down. I have always watched us whenever I could but so many times I used to sit and watch games thinking is this all we have. I watch games now and even though we have bad days like yesterday we try to play football the way I want it to be played. Whether we go up this season or now I think we'll get the pieces MB needs for next season should that be in the Prem or still in the Championship.

What Bielsa has done this season in a short space of time with a very similar squad to last year is a great turnaround & a testament to his ability as a manager/coach/leader,I (like all of us I imagine) hope he stays around for 2 or 3 more years to continue & build a legacy that lasts for years
To answer the question - Style, lets hope he builds something that lasts & is effective in modern football & probably more important ...Is entertaining.
The question is posed with a bias, however I definitely think style - great entertaining football. The team play as a team and bielsa didn't want a striker at christmas. Would people still want Bielsa if he doesn't want a big striker purchase over summer,, have mostly the same squad next year with a couple of additions none of which is a big league striker?

Not sure we should write Bamford off just yet, MB rates him given the fact you make that he didn't want a striker.
Remember a lot of our fans didn't like Chris Wood at the start of his Leeds career.
Someone mentioned the other day we need a Billy Sharp type, let's remind ourselves he scored 5 in 33 games when he was here.
