Ricardo Ferretti launched a strong accusation with overtones of criticism against the directors of Mexican soccer.
One of the most controversial characters in Mexican soccer is Ricardo Ferretti, who stopped training after his bad time at Cruz Azul. It is clear that Tuca is one of the best coaches in the history of Liga MX; his record proves it. However, for several years his words have had more prominence than the level of his teams.
In fact, Tuca was fired for the first time in his career last year, when Víctor Velázquez decided to end his contract with La Maquina.. While it is true that Ferretti did not have complete control in assembling his squad, the real problem was in his defensive playing style. And that defensive way of seeing football in recent years is what led different teams to set their sights on other options.
Even so, Tuca Ferretti issued a strong message against the directors of Mexican soccer on ESPN: “They don’t want to let me coach in the league and they think that affects me. I have already directed 30 years in a row and I feel satisfied with what I achieved. Now I give young technicians a chance while I enjoy doing this program.”
“They are putting their foot down themselves and the proof is that they are losing fans, which is why the stadiums look increasingly empty.”stated the former cement coach. Of course, this criticism also comes from the sad moment that the Mexican National Team is experiencing with Javier Aguirre at the helm.
Tuca Ferretti pointed out what Cruz Azul’s biggest problem is
The reality is that the cement team is the best candidate to win the Apertura 2024 due to everything shown in the regular phase. However, it is true that in recent days some important problems have become evident. Especially in defense, where Willer Ditta is the only one who is standing out and it is something that is worrying.
A few weeks ago, Tuca pointed out the person responsible for Cruz Azul’s defensive weakness: “Cruz Azul’s problem is the libero it has, it measures 1.67. “Erik Lira is not a libero, he is containment”. Although the former Pumas has shown a clear improvement and is important at the start, when it comes to defending inside the area, his physique is something that complicates. There is even speculation that Gonzalo Piovi’s low level is due to the absence of Carlos Salcedo, who did the dirty work.
