“Chivas today shows that for me it is the best team that plays in Mexico and the one who best understands this issue of the intention of knowing how to play, of imprisoning, of when one has to be a chameleon, becomes chameleon“said the former player for TUDN.
Part of this performance is due to the good management of the board and the patience with Gabriel Milito. The Argentine strategist is leading his second season at the club and the good results have come.
“The coach seems like a great coach to me.who can play with a line of five and in the same game can modify you and play with a line of four. It has resources, and when you have resources it seems to me that you can do very well.“he explained.

The problems of America
Cesilio de los Santos has many doubts about the Águilas del América. ANDThe former Uruguayan soccer player believes that the virtue of a team comes through its midfield. The azulcrema team had the right loss of Alvaro Fidalgo for this season. Cesilio pointed out this as the club’s biggest shortcoming.
