Espanyol has chosen-and presented-to substitute Mauricio Pochettino. This is Javier Aguirre, an old acquaintance in our championship with a mission to make a team rowing unable to get to see the shore. The Basque returns to the bench for the League almost a year after suffering the same fate as his predecessor whitish, when he was dismissed at Real Zaragoza after a poor start to the season. There was no eating grapes, something it hopes to achieve in Cornella-El Prat, where one of his main challenges will be to dramatize a situation that has more to do with institutional than sports.
Espanyol is the bottom side of the table, yes. But just two points from safety. Or what is the same, to a victory. Surely the harvest of the three points in a row, something only achieved twice Pochettino , relaunch demonstrates a team that can have many drawbacks, but one of them is not incompetence. Not that there team to be in Europe, not to fight for the Champions League, but to stay with some relief in the quiet area of the table. Aguirre, who was cast in Zaragoza, also had made months before salvation skill, goal for which he was hired and who remembers the reason for his arrival in Barcelona.
Since your stay in Pamplona , where he put it in his first Cup final and where did classify for Europe , Mexican adventures have not ended as expected. In Atletico lasted half the season and that was to be the great leap in his career. Then went to the national team, but dropped out in the first phase of the World Cup in South Africa chose to leave office. A couple of seasons landed at La Romareda replaces Gay . It came in the day once, with 7 points, one win and a rarefied atmosphere around the policy. Was saved in the last day and won the renovation, which then lasted very little.
Today the circumstances with which he accepted the job at Espanyol closely resemble those he had in Zaragoza. Day 13, two wins and eight losses. The set parakeet has no stars, has a rather young squad and this is only just starting to wander, lost points for lack of concentration or silly distractions. Also lost character, attitude, identity. Yesterday, in the encounter against Sevilla butler and which was the worst entry in the short history of Cornella-El Prat, was experienced a new chapter of indolence. Longhi fell 0-3 with Raul eating the brown from the bench. Today it passes to Aguirre, an expert in desdramatizar.
