“Why don’t they ask those people who have made the decisions? They are the ones who know; we don’t, they never ask us anything at all; that’s why we are very oblivious, very far from all that.”

At that time he took over the reins of El Tri, following Jose Manuel Chepo de la Torre added negative results in the position and that placed the team on the verge of elimination for the 2014 Brazil worldcup.

The ‘Jimmy’ Lozano
On the other hand, Victor Manuel Vucetich he remembered the time he had as an assistant Jaime Lozano, brand new strategist of the Mexican team.
“I arrived at Gallos and was in the Sub 20 branch; then my assistant was a tournament… he has an idea, and at least it is what he projected in Sub 20; he brings an idea that maybe right now is the common denominator that is handled right now: a 4-3-3, that is the concept that he has handled”.

Whether he sees a great future in Lozano, or that he might have a career as successful as his, he said: “I don’t know, that is subject to many things.”
“I hope so, that he has a very brilliant career, but well, that is subject to managers, representatives, the media, fans, everything that all of us technicians experience. Many circumstances. So, hopefully the circumstances are to favor”.
“They didn’t want to change anything”
On whether he expects a radical change in the Mexican team con Juan Carlos Rodriguez in charge, replied: “It is very difficult to be able to tell from the outside, I don’t even have the pleasure of meeting him.”
“He is a man who is identified in the field of television, in business; a business man… Hopefully, for the good of Mexican soccer.”
“Mexican soccer requires something different, something they haven’t wanted to do for 15, 20, 30 years; they haven’t wanted to change anything. So, today maybe it may be required, and hopefully he has that capacity to know how to settle everything those kinds of circumstances that are lived”.
