Demichelis, without laps: “I want River to be a machine”

“I want my team to be a machine, and for that we handled all the items, such as today when we lowered the height of the grass from 26 to 22 millimeters so that the ball could circulate even faster. It was the first time we did it”, began by explaining Demichelis at the post-match press conference at the More Monumental.

“And particularly today I was moved by the great goal from Matías Suárez, who is an extremely important player for the squad, and who wants to continue extending his career despite the fact that the knee injury problem is not easy to solve, it really is moving”remarked the DT.

Demichelis stressed that the Cordovan like him “They gave up as a former player and he could easily have ended his long career. But I am proud to have him on the team and accompany his desire to continue overcoming pain and competing.”

“But he must go little by little, playing first 30 minutes, then 60 and see if the doctors authorize him to play 90 at the time.”he warned.

Regarding the development of the match against ‘Lobo’, Demichelis explained: “Today was an emotionally difficult game because having so many gymnastics substitutes, people expected us to win 5-0 after the first half, and I knew that this was going to be difficult. This was a game to thank the team”.

The Cordovan of Justinian Posse He also had laudatory expressions towards another comprovinciano such as Lucas Beltranof which he said that “He is very valuable because of the wear and tear he does permanently, since everyone gave him as a third striker and he earned his place.”

“And then we also have to thank the people who filled the Monumental on a weekday”the young coach hastened to clarify.

On the other hand, Demichelis was consulted about the great jewel of the inferiors of Riverwho is breaking it with the Argentina U-17 team in the South American of the category. “And as for the ‘Diablito’ Claudio Echeverri, we follow him because he has River’s DNA, but we still couldn’t have him with the first one due to his commitments with the Under 17s. But we have to lower our expectations for him, since we don’t stop being a boy and we should not confuse him, because he has a lot to grow”warning.

To close, he gave a general message about the state of the squad and anticipated a starting position for the next game, on Sunday against Newell’s in rosary beads.

“Here there is great harmony within the squad and that makes us work very calmly, but it is something that comes from the legacy of Leonardo Ponzio, Javier Pinola and many others who passed through here. And there are players who are now raising their level, like Esequiel Barco, who is destabilizing, or José Paradela, who will start in Rosario against Newell’s on Sunday.”concluded the successor of Marcelo Gallardo42 years old.
