LOS ANGELES – Don’t seduce. It’s not fun. It doesn’t captivate. He is not passionate. But America is there. In that battle zone that claims its descendants.
He would be a leader. He would have Cruz Azul in the rearview mirror. But a bureaucratic suicide demoted him. There are all kinds of misfortunes in the vineyards of the Lord, some of these vineyards have names: Federico.
He showed, from his repertoire, the best, before the worst: an evacuated Pachuca. Tuzos, by DNA, are experts in digging their own holes, their own graves. The most recent is a case for your coach Paulo Pezzolano, with skill in line measurements, of a Vuittón tailor.
America wiped Pachuca. Guillermo Ochoa resigned himself with the most expensive yawns in the world. nest he continues to celebrate on the scoreboard, although his fans are swallowed by drowsiness due to his operation aligned with a strict pragmatism.
Titles survive documents. The end justifies the means and the fears. Championships do not become obsolete or perverted. Critics do not rust trophies. Because if so, imagine your collection of Tuca Ferretti.
Santiago Solari came questioned at thighs. As it should be. He submitted a resume as a technician who did not need a stapler or paper clip. There were only two lines: Real Castilla and Real Madrid. And the White House was an adventurous speculation Florentino Pérez, after dismissal Julen Lopetegui. True, he was the champion of the Club World Cup, but the perfume Zinedine Zidane.
Today, The living dead It has America as a sub-leader. There is a merit: he inherited the ruins from the dilapidated team he managed Miguel Herrera. Powders of other sludges. And yet he sits on the battlefields. True: the mission assigned still has dangerous battles. And the war takes place in a coliseum unknown to the Argentine: Liguilla.
On the field he has only one defeat, against Rayados, with the curse of the referee. The other, it has already been said, took place at the table of Mexican football gangsters. The shapes are not convincing, but Americanism he is pleased to see him there, bidding on the slopes of his own Everest.
Solar you have an advantage. Before being physically and competitively beaten by the LAFC, Miguel Herrera tied two players for this tournament: Pedro Aquino and Mauro Láinez. The two have already accommodated their virtues in the starting team.
But, Santiago Solari he made drastic decisions. He expects nothing from the desperate Giovani dos Santos and Nico Benedetti and looks favorably on Roger Martínez and recruits his own regiment. And for pleasure Americanism, insists on supporting Santiago Naveda, a solid 19-year-old project.
His chess has no fiction. Collect, retrieve, surround, hold, wait and assault, although sometimes the balls on the net are the desperate trades of talented players. In the sight Pachuca, Richard Sánchez takes a goal from his childhood fantasies, from the middle of the yard and Not here The watermelon drove a ball into the area, through the sleeping forest of Pachuqueños. However, they are still listed on the stock exchange in the general table.
In a backpack or itacate, The living dead He uploaded only one order: Álvaro Fidalgo. His most recent experiences have been on the shore Real Castellón of the Second Division of Spain. Solar approved it. In the sight Pachuca, were the ones who meditated on this. Its switching efficiency was 100% – 43 out of 43 delivered correctly. The numbers also tell lies. Maybe a few intentional balls, the rest, side deliveries, comfortable, safe, light.
Let’s compare these numbers with his Richard Sanchez: out of 61 balls in possession, delivered 56 correctly. 91.8 percent. Between those balls he passes for the goal Not here. It was better Fidalgo what the Sanchez or the same Not here?
The secret Solar? Impact on the player and the locker room. A guy with personality, with still interesting traces of being raised in a bestial dressing room, rude, relentless as the one in real Madrid, is a powerful business card. And anyone who has faced wolves feels comfortable in front of a toothless, injured and desperate package, like the one in which he found thighs, after a disastrous 2020 and above, with the sudden dismissal of Miguel Herrera.
A cult type, with power in word, firmness in concepts, beyond generating more yawns than screams among his fans, allowed him to take the stage and be, in addition, a generous escape valve for players eager to redeem and others grateful for an opportunity such as the cases of Not here Yes Láinez.
From inside nest there is a version. Most of the players died Miguel Herrera. And they liked the message, the passion, the intensity, but the moment came when the motivation came to rub against an uncomfortable pressure when going out on the field. They did not stop respecting LiceBut already his speech was beginning to put extra weight on his back. Solar He came to lighten that load.
The footballer goes out on the field today with less anxiety, but with more awareness of his responsibilities. And there are players who have clearly received the message, especially Young people, who no longer even appears in the desperate alternatives of his new coach.
Finally, with eight days spent, Santiago Solari bears passing notes. The position in the table is an irrefutable argument. The style of play that reached its peak, before the worst benchmark, as it was Pachucahowever, it opens up questions as they reach higher demand points.
In front of, America must transfer players to national teams and watch matches in Concachampions (Olimpia), and the calendar convened it in front of the ugliest and ugliest synods, some in the low hours, to close the leadership of the regular season: Tijuana, León, Chivas, Tigres, The Blue Cross, Toluca and Pumas, with Necaxa and Mazatlán, as apparent oases, although, it is already known, the patriarch # Hate me more she plays it with different vehemence.
Today, with little working time, Solari overshadowed the bad presences that determined his arrival. But, being America, the outcome and the final verdict, you will receive on the throne or on the gallows. In the nest there is no room for purgatory.
