Colo Colo: Gustavo Quinteros opens up to the option of Jorge Valdivia and Matías Fernández playing together

After confirming the return of Jorge Valdivia to Colo Colo, one of the topics that has been most debated is the possibility that he will share the court with Matías Fernández again, reissuing one of the pairs most remembered by the fans.

This becomes relevant due to the shortcomings in the midfield, which could not have been a solution at the time of generating the game for the Cacique, and the team feels that. Gustavo Quinteros analyzed this option in a press conference, although he suggested that they hardly play together, especially due to the high number of games to come.

“The idea is to put them both well, to use each one of them in each game. It will be difficult for one of them to play 90 minutes every three or four days, so we can alternate and handle that issue “he explained.

Along the same lines, he added that “With either Matías or Valdivia, or both, it is much more possible to play 4-2-3-1. When you have a player, a football generator with that talent, who can use 90 minutes, with 45 minutes each or 60 one and 30 the other, you have a guaranteed game system with high quality players “.

When asked if his tactical drawing will change with the arrival of the Magician, the technician maintained that he always had “Two game systems that I generally use: 4-3-3 and 4-2-3-1. They are the ones that I usually always used in the last years of my career. We started with 4-3-3, with an inside on the right and on the left. At times in some parts of the game we have played 4-2-3-1 “.

Regarding what he expects from each one, Quinteros on the field of play, pointed out that “Jorge can give us that last pass and that talent that he has to enable a player. Together with Matías Fernández he can give him 90 or 95 minutes of the best football of each one, then we will see how many minutes each one is for. Between the two of them in a similar position on the court they can give the team a lot “.

Finally, he detailed in what physical condition the 14 of the whites are and warns that he is to add more minutes than he has been playing.

“We recovered Matías Fernández very well. I think he will be there to play long enough to give a lot of things to the team that we didn’t have for a while. He’s fine now and El Mago (Jorge Valdivia) is added in that position. There we will surely have ninety minutes of great talent, have that last pass and solve games. We will have a great contribution, also with the arrival of Jara and with the boy Solari, who is very talented. We are satisfied “, full.
