The other phrases of the doll

“We have to try to find the spaces where the players feel best. We have a player like Herrera, whose potential is to pass through the outside with his arrival in the rival area. If we have Solari playing in that position, it is easy for them to be blocked. We try to find variants based on the characteristics of the players we have, so we centralize Solari. There are tactical problems that sometimes arise: it is a question of not giving the opponent options to easily read where we can attack, as happened in the last games with Solari also by changing wings and looking for alternatives on both sides. It is the way of not giving references in research to continue to find the best performance “.

“The rivals play. It explores whether we can open games quickly, find spaces on the pitch or feel comfortable, but the rival also has merits when this does not happen. Sometimes what the rival does is discredited. When we play badly it is not because we want it, it is because the opponent makes us play badly ”.

In a closed game like Sarandi’s, in which the field didn’t let the game flow and the opponent made us play uncomfortable, we didn’t find the roads. It is thanks to the rival who does it. In the Monumentale there are closed teams that block our playing circuit … sometimes a team takes credit to defend itself well, we cannot break through and the credit goes to the rival who did not give those opportunities. There is also our criticism of breaking those locks. We take care of this problem. But we are also responsible when the team plays well, opens games quickly and we feel more at ease because the opponent has to come out a little more ”.

“I observed Borja in better conditions, before arriving here he was unemployed for a month with virtually no training. His best condition would have been first the assimilation of training and then when he added minutes in Argentine football, which is different from what he was used to. He passed that path and today I decided that he had to play from the beginning, accompanied by a player who comes in and out like Solari, who complements him ”.

“Today we were able to open it relatively quickly, we did not suffer any capsizing, when we accelerated we found direct and dangerous attack positions. We played a game without suffering. Against Newell the same thing happened and then we gave him the chance to enter the game with a goal. Today we had a cold stage with situations that we could not control within the area and we had a very good response from Franco (Armani). Apart from that, we check it calmly. “
