Between the rich interview of the program F-Team from ESPN a Juan roman riquelmethere was an interesting back and forth between the former link and vice president of Boca Juniors and the journalist Morena Beltran. It all started when the analyst asked him regarding the profile of the 5 of the group, the jump that Alan Varela gave him in the last games and the test that Battaglia did with Pol Fernández in said role.
“Pol Fernández is not playing even half of what he can play. The best game he played was once morest Estudiantes and he was the central midfielder. Varela is a boy with a lot of class and he plays the central midfielder, but he must be intelligent and enjoy playing alongside Fernández, from Zambrano, for whom I also have a great weakness. Like Izquierdoz, that he came back a long time before he should have and that’s wonderful. Madrid is in the Champions League final with Casemiro and Liverpool too. The only five that I saw is unrepeatable is Busquets because he confused world football because he started delivering the ball well. Now it seems that if the team plays badly it’s the five’s fault. But Busquets there is only one. When Varela plays badly, you have to take care of him and he will grow little by little because he is going to give us a lot of joy. Leave Varela alone”, was the reflection of JRR10.
“The central midfielder, the eight, ten or eleven must stop the ball and give it to the one of the same color. I am clear that a team is a group and it is not played well by a single player. In Argentinian football we force the one who plays well to be number ten and today Boca’s ten is Romero, who did very well once morest Defense Justice, who made the pass for the penalty in Bolivia. Before in Platense I wanted to see Espina or Bochini in Independiente. Argentine football does not change, ”he added, to which Beltrán did not agree.
* The look of the DT on No. 10 and the role of Oscar Romero
Espina, a former hitch like Román, intervened there, and the leader of the Xeneize Football Council maintained his position. “Soccer is weird and I have a lot of fun. Every Saturday I come to watch the games of the Inferiores and when the games are over I ask the little ones what they play and they tell me ‘far right’ or ‘inner left’. When I hear that, wow! It seems that the goals have to be scored only by the strikers. When I ask Chelo Delgado ‘what the hell would you play today?’, he tells me he doesn’t know. Before we asked for the ball to reach the bottom and for someone to send the center. Before, the right midfielder knew what he was doing and there were things that didn’t have to be explained to him. Now you have to explain to the boys that if the ‘4’ comes up, the ‘inner left’ says ‘that’s not mine’. Soccer is simple: the ‘3’ comes out, the ‘8’ goes. We try to explain the basic things to the little ones and they don’t understand. We are going to explain it to you until you understand it so that we can have a Guillermo Barros Schelotto or a Cello Delgado. We cannot compare football in Europe with the players here because the best in the world are there. Here we have to compare everything with Guardiola’s Manchester City, but there is only one of that City. I get bored when the goalkeeper touches it twice in a row”, he stated, using the language that is often used on TV to explain tactical variations, or taking the speech of many of the modern coaches who have been successful.
Beltrán gave examples of teams that work within the new parameters in Argentine soccer, such as Argentinos Juniors or Defensa y Justicia. “Don’t get mad Morena”asked Riquelme, clarifying that it was just a debate and that you can win in any way: “That’s the fun of this game.”
“Football is played diagonally, you can’t pass everything along the same line because they cut your game. I might be wrong, I’m not a technician, but I want to at least teach the kids basic things. Football is a game in which you compete to win and we want to be better than the rival and not be kicked on goal. We are very concerned with the little ones from the Inferiors and when we ask them regarding a striker and they tell us that they are ‘extreme’… I understand that football around the world is beautiful, but we cannot compare our little ones with those from outside. We think that because they comb their hair just like the First Division they think they are Benedetto or because they get a tattoo just like Darío, who has been playing for 17 years”, concluded Román.
