Faced with this scenario, Johnny Herrera He came out to question the Azul Azul board of directors for signing the 51-year-old native of Ciudad de Córdoba.

“Having a history of what happened with Gustavo Poyet (at UC), what happened with López and there are endless technicians who arrive without knowing the environment”, he added.
Thus, the ‘Samurai Azul’ fears the worst with Pellegrino on the La U bench. “The other day, he makes the changes and you go 0-0. In theory, you had your two best players on the bench and you put them, but put one on each side (Assadi and Osorio). Individualities are very important and alone they do not win games. It may be one in 10,” he said.
Finally, the former goalkeeper and blue symbol pointed out that “I think that for me, now, I hope they cover my mouth, but they made a mistake with the technician, it’s that simple.

Campos returned to the practices of the ‘Romántico Viajero’ on Thursday and now he took time to comment on your situation.
“It’s something very personal, I’ve been here for 10 months having it like this, it was not my place to abandon ship at this time. The squad is renewed, we have a new coaching staff and as I told you, I am the first to show my face, the one who wants to be there for the weekend. If I have to go to the front for someone, I want to be the one who wants to be there, ”he said in dialogue with The Blue Magic.
In addition, the 23-year-old goalkeeper pointed out that “I have not wanted to assume a role as has been discussed many times of the captaincy. I feel that I am not prepared for the situations that happened to me last year, of ups and downs that I do not want to go into details because they have been evident. Everything takes its due time, it gives me the peace of mind to improve one hundred percent training and perform to be a contribution to the U, which is what matters to me ”.

I really want to be here, I’m looking for all possible solutions to stay well. I want to train, play and win.”
“The club and the CDA, for me it is my home, I feel full, I like to work, I train a lotI like being here, we talk a lot regarding football with the coaching staff, try to understand their ideas, regarding the approaches, for what is coming this year. I’m interested in the club growingthat we do not go through situations like in recent years, to have a good atmosphere with my colleagues, to integrate young people ”, he pointed out.
Finally, Campos did not dramatize the agreement that Azul Azul reached with Cristopher Toselli for the 2023 season. “I will always be prepared to compete and seek the good of the U. I have the same interests as the club, which is to achieve things… al least get into an international cup… so the person who arrives, the goalkeeper who arrives must come to contribute his grain of sand and one must think that if one prepares well, it will not depend on who arrives or who does not arrive”, he declared.
