I have a good criteria of his personal and coach, I think he has done very well. There is a change in the structure of the section and those who enter love their trusted people. Scariolo has a great curriculum, public opinion does not judge Scariolo based on what he has achieved. He is a great coach, I compare it with Gregg Popovich, Since success has been able to improve a lot and evolve being installed in success. He is a full guarantee coach, but that does not mean that Chus Matthew was too. For me the most important thing is the template, the figure of the sports director is key. Sergio Rodríguez will have his collaborators, he is a very smart uncle, with a high knowledge of basketball, he knows the house very well and has everything to be a good director of the section, “ detailed.

Suddenly one day came and said it was Real Madrid, I asked him why and he told me that because all his friends were from Real Madrid. He has caught an era that all children were from Real Madrid in the last five years because he was the best team in the world. I have not wanted to condition or get out of that, but in the Champions League tie against Arsenal I asked him how it could be that the best team in the world was eliminated. For the first time I had to buy a mbappé shirt “, He told a Daimiel who would not see with bad eyes a change on the bench of the mattress team.
“We have to get the idea that Simeone will stop being a coach of Atlétic. He is a resulting coach, does not hide and the results have not been good in the last stage. Under his parameters, he could now be in question. The people who defend it say that the club does not file in conditions. When I got from Atleti in 73 I made a winning team and I want it to be there, in the Champions Finals as in Lisbon and Milan, that I fight for the League, that wins a glass from time to time. To be third, fall into eighths or rooms of Champions, because I prefer a coach to play more colorful. Luis Enrique would have loved, Jurgen Klopp I like it a lot, with what Simeone charges you can sign. “
