The coach has opened the door to the return of the PSG central defender to the national team
Luis de la Fuente, the new Spanish coach to replace Luis Enrique, has explained the idea he has to carry out his leadership at La Roja. He has done so in an interview with ‘El Partidazo’ on Cadena Cope and, from what has been stated, the way he works is going to be very different from that of the former coach. In fact, he has explained that “better goals are achieved with a good atmosphere, not with the whip”. He also revealed that he contemplates the return of footballers like Sergio Ramos: “I’ll talk to him.”
The one from Haro has expressed that “my way of behaving is not imposed, it is what it is. When you speak to people with intelligence, respect, moderation and calm, you also arrive. It is my way of exercising leadership. It is not my objective, It’s my way of acting.” In this sense, he added that “the sad thing is that normality seems exceptional. Being a normal person seems like you have to be exceptional. What do you have to be? Sour, unfriendly? Better goals are achieved with a good atmosphere, not with the whip.”
He has confessed that he is not a user of social networks: “I read the newspaper, I watch television, I listen to the radio, I consider myself informed.” On the subject he commented that “I want people to know me in person, not anonymously, I like to see people’s faces and debate.” And it is that, according to him he assured, “I have not seen a second of Luis Enrique’s Twitch. I have found out through the media about some things that he has said.” He ended up saying on the subject that “anyone who says that criticism doesn’t hurt is false.”
Your idea of football
De la Fuente wants “Spain to play a combination of football, but with other registers. I come to integrate and incorporate other game situations, other nuances, neither better nor worse than the ones up to now, different”. In what he will agree with Luis Enrique is in most of the internationals: “We will agree on a large number. In 20 or 21 he would have coincided”, regarding the World Cup list. In this regard, he commented that “there are none fixed, but I have had Èric Garcia in lower categories, he fits very well into the idea of football that exists in the Federation and he is a very important footballer. You have to know how to treat him and give him his space Those harsh criticisms have hurt him the same.” De Rodri said that “for me he is a midfielder, but he could also play central at certain times, he has the ability to do so.”
Sacred cows?
The coach opened the door to the return of footballers who “are the history of Spanish football and have led us to glory” because he believes that “they can still give a lot, I have to talk to heavyweights and other players who have to be recovered and have to be here”. A reflection that can help players like Sergio Ramos return to La Roja. In fact, Questioned directly by the PSG central defender on Cadena Ser, he assured that “He is among the players I will talk to”.
