REGARDING THE LEGAL STATUS OF THIAGO ALMADA, WHO IS LINKED TO #ATLUTD:
- Court case is still active.
- District attorney is Laura Zyseskind, who still investigates.
- It involves Almada and three other current Vélez players (LW Centurión, CFW Lucero and CB Brizuela) and Acuña Delbene, former coach of Argentino de Quilmes (3rd Div club). (1/9)
- All of them were at a private party in a house rented by Lucero within a country club, with several girls.
- Almada and Brizuela remain charged as suspects of group sexual abuse.
- Only detainee is Acuña Delbene, for having been a fugitive.
- Victims are two girls:... (2/9)
HEINZE AND SOME TRANSLATED "DETAILS" REGARDING VÉLEZ THAT FANS OF #ATLUTD SHOULD KNOW
1/21 TACTICAL EXAMINATION
- #ATLUTD´s fans will know Heinze´s most repeated keyword: POSITIONING. For him, tactical schemes (static) change with positioning (dynamic), so they have less value.
2/21 It means that (like Bielsa) he wants multipurpose players for #ATLUTD, those who can change from one position to another quickly. As such, LW/RW are WBs and FBs, FWs are wingers and insiders (CM/LM/RM), HM are CBs, etc.
- Heinze always wants a free player to DEF and ATK.
3/21 #ATLUTD would be much more mechanized than Tata´s team, because Heinze seeks to automate at least triangulations (2-player passing with receptor) and eventually man-to-man markings.
That´s why team transformation is slower and insists on its implementation without changes.
