“If we were playing today, which team would you put in?” | Relief

The departure of Jagoba Arrasate was a blow for Osasuna. Since no agreement to continue was reached, the sports governing body He had to start breaking rocks to find a trainer. which they deemed suitable as soon as the competition was over. Vicente Moreno’s statement just a day after the end of La Liga made it clear that the club has achieved its goal, at least in terms of timing, as performance remains to be seen. But many had doubts: Why Vicente Moreno?

The Red Sports Guide has explored many names: Sergio Gonzalez, Ruby and even the likes of Pacheta.. Braulio Vazquez, sports director of the club: didn’t sit face to face with all the proposals that came in (if he did, he wouldn’t have finished the round of encounters yet), but with those that he thought might be suitable. The famous “casting” in Osasuna, which the media talked about week after week, has become a reality, the result of which remains to be seen, but whose method

This is certain.

Braulio Vazquez, tablet and duty coach. From here, in addition to informal conversations, there is a clear goal: to get to know the candidate more deeply from a football point of view. The head of the club held ten questions roughly a coaching candidate divided into two blocks. Some concerned the club itself: “If we played on weekends, Which team would you field?“; “If you had such players, What system would you use?“… And others not so related to the Rojillo club on his own, but more with his football philosophy: which La Liga teams did he like more or less, taste for certain players who could be signed and that they will suit the manager, etc.

He must have done something right. Vicente Moreno at said casting because he came in with some possibilities short coach Osasuna, but He emerged from the meeting with Braulio as one of the favorites.. Your knowledge in squad depthhis idea of ​​football, which did not represent a complete and utter break with what the team practiced, and, above all, his readiness for dialogue to take on the decisions of the sports leadership

performing the movements, I liked it at the club.

To all this we must add thatVicente Moreno’s past surpasses the feelings he left behind. a perception that they are well aware of in Osasuna. In Hispaniola He easily managed to stay in La Liga and also win the title in the Second Division., that fans ended up demanding more performance from him than his team could deliver for the simple reason that he achieved his goals with absurd ease. He featured in two successive promotions for Mallorca and when he decided to leave the team, the team was in the thick of a battle for consistency.

Braulio’s confirmation

This Tuesday at 13:00 a press conference was held in which Vicente Moreno was introduced as the new coach of Rojillo. Braulio Vasquez was present in the press room and voiced the casting from the front line. “When Jagoba confirms to us that he has no intention of staying at the club, we begin a series of meetings.. I won’t mention the names of the coaches we worked with, but I thank them for their time,” he began.

“We began a series of meetings, meeting Vicente for the first time on April 2nd. We really liked it. On May 19 we had a second meeting.

After much analysis and collection of information from the places he visited, talk to Budimir who had it in Mallorca, after this collection of information it was time to make a decision and this weekend I informed the President that the choice fell on Vicente. I want to make it clear that no one, no one rejected Osasuna, but I thank those of us who met,” the manager said.
