The FUTVE English Team of the Month|🗓 July 2021 - Thread|

UCV and Deportivo La Guaira dominate our XI with Daniel Sasso’s superb effect on UCV securing him our Manager of the Month award. Results from 01/08 were included for consideration. #futve

🧵See our selection in full!⬇️
Goalkeeper: Álvaro Forero
- @UCVFCOFICIAL

UCV had kept just one clean sheet before July, now they’ve kept five. Forero has been fantastic between the sticks, denying Lala, Metro, Mineros, and Monagas. Only group leaders Caracas have breached his net. Captain fantastic. #futve
Defender: Kaki Rivero
- @Caracas_FC

Kaki is the perfect blend of style and substance in the Caracas defence and marked his July with 1 goal, 1 clean sheet, and two performances considered by InStat as in the best 25 of the week. He’s the 3° highest rated CB in the league. #futve
Defender: Henri Pernía
- @DvoLaGuaira

Pernía played 3 of La Guaira’s 4 games in July, each time being in the top 25 highest rated performers of the week (InStat). In those games, the Naranja kept two clean sheets and conceded just once, with the man from Turén vital. #futve
Defender: Jon Aramburu
- @DvoLaGuaira

Aramburu turned 19 this month and celebrated by continuing to grow his pedigree. The versatile defender was an ever present in July, completing 4 lots of 90 minutes. His tactical versatility remains invaluable to head coach Farias. #futve
Defender: César Aponte
- @UCVFCOFICIAL

The defensive improvement since Sasso took charge is the starkest of his changes and whilst the personnel has changed Aponte’s place in it hasn’t – he was present for 3 of UCV’s 4 clean sheets in July. #futve
Midfielder: Maurice Cova
- @DvoTachira

Injury may have cut Cova’s July short but he was sublime in the two games he did feature in, including netting a goal of the month contender in a 1-1 draw with Estudiantes. He was the highest rated CM (InStat) at the first stage mid point.
Midfielder: Luis Ruiz
- @UCVFCOFICIAL

Frequently lining up in a 4-2-4 formation, Sasso expects a lot from his midfield engine and WC 2017 runner-up Luis Ruiz has been an undroppable component. From Aragua to Gran Valencia to UCV in consecutive seasons, he’s found a home here.
Midfielder: Carlos Cermeño
- @DvoLaGuaira

Farías’ talented squad was subject to a lot of rotation for the first 3 months of the season as they contended with Libertadores football. Their elimination has settled that and Cermeño, as the cream of the crop, has risen to the top.
Midfielder: Joel Infante
- @AtleticoVzla

Our Player of the Month, Infante was the creative force in an unfortunate loss to Caracas, the star of the show with a hattrick vs. Metro, and the catalyst for the comeback against Mineros. Atlético’s top scorer is in top form. #futve
Striker: Armando Araque
- @EstudiantesMEFC

The 32yo striker playing for his boyhood club is in the form of his life with 7 goals in 13 games. His best return came in 2019 with 11 goals in 31 games. He’s on course to better that with 3 goals in July. #futve
Striker: Adrian Fernández
- @Portuguesa_FC

The Paraguayan was in the top 25 highest rated performers in 3 of the 4 game weeks Portuguesa had in July. His goals have revitalised Ali Cañas’ team after an underwhelming 2020. He scored in 3 of their 4 outings last month. #futve
Head Coach: Daniel Sasso
- @UCVFCOFICIAL

In July, UCV kept an impressive 4 clean sheets in 5 games, only conceding to Caracas (2). Their 3-1-1 record earned 10 points as they climbed away from the group’s bottom. Sasso’s appointment will likely save them from relegation. 13/13
