Barcelona dismisses Ernesto Valverde and signs Quique Setién at the front of the bench

first_img01/13/2020 – 20:24 | 23:24 – 01/13/20 The Ernesto Valverde era in Barcelona is already past. The club, after the debacle of the Super Cup and endless rumors, has announced the dismissal of Txingurri thus ending two and a half seasons leading the first team in which LaLiga has won twice, a Copa del Rey (lost another final) and another Spanish Super Cup, the competition that ended up being the last blow for Viandar de la Vera. His substitute, a Quique Setién who gets the great opportunity of his career after leading Las Palmas and Real Betis, among other groups, and who signs until 2022 with the elections to the Blaugrana presidency on the horizon.Four titles but the feeling that he never knew how to take over the reins of one of the most complicated costumes in the world. In the shade, due to the so-called Champions League disasters in Rome and Liverpool, the Valverde stage as coach of Barcelona closes with another failure in the fight for a championship, although after signing the 80 best minutes of the season in addition to be a leader in LaLiga and stand in the round of the top continental competition.Because against Atlético de Madrid, the culé team did not deserve to lose in the semifinals. But football is like that and a bad final straight match led to the rojiblancos going 2-1 (with two other goals voided in Barça) and that led to the last anger of the directive against his coach. That one that never gave the full confidence of Josep María Bartomeu and its surroundings and was only saved in June 2019 by the insistence of the strong block of the wardrobe, with Leo Messi in the lead. He leaves with four titles (two leagues, between them) after two and a half campaignsThe Cantabrian coach signs until 2022 with the elections on the horizonThis Tuesday will be presented at the Camp Nou and will debut before Granadacenter_img After tense days in Can Barça, trips to Qatar and clandestine meetings but telegraphed loudly, Bartomeu has met with Valverde on the return to training to communicate his dismissal. That has been a reality after the meeting with the Board of Directors this Monday, where the arrival until 2022 of Quique Setién has been closed and once it has also been announced, one that will be presented this Tuesday with the president, in order to explain everything that happened.In this way, Valverde leaves and the Cantabrian coach arrives (‘us’ from Xavi and Koeman through), to urgently take the culé box before his official debut in LaLiga (Sunday, at 9:00 p.m. against Granada). With the Camp Nou present, the culé fan will dictate his sentence: support for the team before the new stage or criticism for being participants of the goodbye of the Txingurri.Txingurri fell ‘the brown’ without NeymarAn Extremaduran coach who arrived in the summer of 2017 to take over from the successful, but short, stage of Luis Enrique in the dressing room. Already without Neymar from the beginning, due to his escape to PSG, Valverde had to reinvent himself (after losing his first Super Cup against Madrid) with the signings in extremis of Dembélé and Coutinho.Two players who never knew how to get the expected match and also largely blamed their method, as in the aforementioned debacles of the Olympic of Rome, Anfield, Cup against Valencia or the last of Jeddah, as well as the difficult coupling of Griezmann, irregularities with Arthur or the strange substitutions of Busquets.Conqueror of the two leagues he has faced, the first Cup and the second Super Cup, his triumphs were hidden under the technical superiority of Messi and company on the grass. Not the defeats, which weighed too much on the fans and were exhausting the patience of the board. That in his last year and a half in the club, there are elections in 2021, he has chosen Quique Setién as a relay until 2022, which suggests that he will be chosen for the bench of the continuity candidacy.Racing from Santander, Poli Ejido, Equatorial Guinea, Logroñés, Lugo, Las Palmas and Betis in his career as a coach, Setién comes up with a much bigger challenge. Get in front of a much superior club in everything that represents the previous ones and move forward with a season that has become entrenched by the lack of confidence in Valverde, which exploded after falling into the reformed Super Cup.last_img read more

Joan Alcaraz: from Villarreal to Guayaquil in search of happiness

first_imgAn endless parenthesisJoan Alcaraz’s story in Ecuador has only just begun and already has large doses of unexpected action. Shortly after arriving in the South American country, the Spanish witnessed how LDU Quito’s bar brava beat up a person who was reselling tickets to the final for the Super Cup. He also saw a robbery at gunpoint, that of a hooded motorist to the Guayaquil City doctor: “He pointed a gun at him and took everything he had on him”. Incidents that, unfortunately, are the order of the day in Ecuador. What nobody expects is the outbreak of a pandemic. Nor the death of a 20-year-old youth squad, Edwin Espinoza, shot to death after being mistaken for another person at the door of his house. “The last weeks are an endless nightmare,” discovers Alcaraz, who came to witness the burning of corpses in the middle of the street after the collapse of health by COVID-19. Nothing that has led him to question the decision he made almost six months ago. His search for happiness continues in South America. As he supposed since discovering the U-20 team of Independiente del Valle, Joan Alcaraz has found in Ecuador a source of inexhaustible talent: “It is not a minor country. It is under development and I think that, in three or four years, it will have a very important presence in South America. He does not have great financial resources, but at the talent level he is brutalAnd he is not the only Spaniard who bets on soccer in the country: Miguel Ramírez conquered the South American Cup with IDV, Ismael and Juan Rescalvo lead Emelec and Antonio Cordón, sports director of the Ecuadorian Soccer Federation, chose Jordi Cruyff as selector. “Being able to help in that construction process is what moves us all”, discovers Alcaraz.Joan Alcaraz ‘); return false; “class =” item-multimedia “>Joan Alcaraz working at his home in Guayaquil, where he awaits the return of Ecuadorian football.Joan Alcaraz In the second most important city -after Quito- in Ecuador, Joan Alcaraz acts as Pool Gavilánez’s right hand man. “I do my own and rival analysis, I transmit my impressions during games and I see other footballers as possible additions. We are a young coaching staff and we do not take a step without agreeing everything. The coach is the one who makes the decisions, but we all feel important in all areas “, details the only Spaniard in Guayaquil City, a” selling “club that bases its football on ball possession:” The coach is smart and knows that if we want to expose and sell players, we cannot bet on first-round matches and He has a sensitivity for positional play, for dominating matches … If you add to that giving opportunities to young players in Primera, City is very similar to Villarreal “. “Villarreal offered me everything a professional can ask for, but I was not happy”center_img Joan Alcaraz, Spanish in Guayaquil City During his time at the Villarreal technical secretariat, Joan Alcaraz (Gandía, 1991) they commissioned him to analyze the sub-20 team of Independiente del Valle. His expectations were very low, but it only took him 90 minutes to fall in love with Ecuadorian soccer. He didn’t know, but somehow he was connecting with his future. Two years have not passed since then and Ecuador is already part of your logbook. Guayaquil City, a modest team that competes in the First Division of the South American country, is now his home. And there, more than 9,000 kilometers from his native Gandia, he has found what he was looking for.For any other soccer fan, being part of Villarreal’s technical secretariat at the age of 28 would have been enough. But Alcaraz “needed something new”: “It was very good, the club offered me everything a professional could ask for, but I was not happy. I did not feel completely full”. It was then that a visit changed his life: “The Guayaquil City coaching staff took a tour of Spain and they asked me to show them the facilities and tell them how we worked in Villarreal. We connected and, before leaving, the coach, Pool Gavilánez, he told me that he was looking for someone like me. “That was how Joan Alcaraz left an elite European club to join the ranks of a modest in South America. “Some people don’t understand it, but I needed to turn my life around and Ecuador is the ideal place to start a new path”, defends from his home in Samborondón, a 15-minute drive from downtown Guayaquil.last_img read more

Goalkeeper Knight comes up big in UWI win at Frome

first_imgWESTERN BUREAU: THANKS to goalkeeper Amal Knight, UWI FC won their first away game in the 2015 Red Stripe Premier League season, a commanding 3-1 victory over FC Reno at Frome Sports Complex yesterday. Knight was superb in goal for UWI, pulling off no less than five fantastic saves – without which the home team would easily have won the fixture. In between his spectacular performance, however, UWI grabbed the lead against the run of play when Patrick Brown toe-poked home his effort from the top of the area in the 15th minute for the opener. Forward Girvon Brown then took his chance to score his eighth goal of the season, making it 2-0 in the 40th minute from the penalty spot, before second-half debutant Anthony Grant netted in the 72nd minute. FC Reno replied through substitute Alburn Facey, who tucked in his effort after Knight had saved brilliantly off a sizzling free-kick from Roshane Sharpe. “I am really pleased with my performance and that of the team today. I think it was an excellent performance from the team on a whole,” said Knight. “We have been playing good football since we have settled in the League, and now we are looking towards greater things,” he said. Knight told The Gleaner he believes UWI can challenge for a place in the final four and that it is not beyond them to believe or show they can do so. “With the table congested the way it is, I believe we stand a great chance if we remain consistent,” he stated. FC Reno, meanwhile, are still searching for goalscoring answers after another sub-par performance. However, they could be in for some good news after club officials revealed that top striker and last season’s Golden Boot winner, Craig Foster, will be making his way back to the club. Coach Michael Graham said Foster’s return and some January signings will help rejuvenate the club, which has lost four of their last six matches.last_img read more
