Boca Juniors fans remember video by Juan Román Riquelme asking for confidence for coaches | Football curiosities


Boca Juniors lives, again, a sports crisis and is without a coach. Fernando Gago was fired after losing the classic against River Plate and is looking for a technician for the remainder of the season and directed in the FIFA Club World Cup.

And the great indicated of the bad moment is Juan Román Riquelme, president of the Argentine Club and Boca idol as a footballer. Since he arrived in 2020, at that time as vice president, to date, Xeneize has had six coaches.

The one that lasted most was Miguel Ángel Russo (1 year and 7 months); But then they have paraded coaches who failed to direct a full season, such as Sebastián Battaglia (323 days), Hugo Ibarra (260 days), Jorge Almirón (209 days), Diego Martínez (267 days) and Fernando Gago (197 days).

Now that they are looking for coach in Boca Juniors, a video went viral and leaves Riquelme very badly.

In that video, Riquelme appears in 2019 by delivering statements against Daniel Angelici, president of Boca, for the constant change of technicians.

Riquelme's criticism was clear: “You as a club you have to be clear about what you want, what a way you want. If we are going to change every year, well, we will see when we stick it. If the president of Boca (Angelici) is so sure of the coach, that he signs him 3 years and shows him that he really wants it.”

In addition, he said something that now contradicts his management: “It is not that if he ties or loses on Sunday, he continues or does not continue; if he is champion, he continues or does not follow. That way you give people peace of mind, the coaching staff and the players and the players; it would be good.”
