“Chemo is going towards another defeat if it is not understood that the FPF should not train the players but the clubs”

Faithful to an almost kamikaze style, solar chemo He will take the minors of the FPF not only from the offices – his position is as general director – but he will go down to the field to train the sub 20s after the South American in February. Risk chosen and not minor, for a character of strong decisions.

Del Solar, it should be said, was one of the first Peruvian players to understand himself as globalized and who began his career always thinking that foreign contact added virtues to him. That Chemo went from a veteran midfielder to a young coach in 2005 seemed logical in a man who admired, for example, Valdano; his mentor in Tenerife and from whom he copied not only tactics, race method, Menottian tastes, but even look.

The underlying problem was not his coaching model but his rush to take on the senior team in 2007. He was neither mature nor tested for such a thick assignment. Because to the tactical errors, which he had, he added a certain failure in the management of a dressing room that he quickly felt betrayed after the Golf Los Incas scandal. That feeling that the theoretical “knowledge of the players” was not really a strength, but rather a weakness of that Chemo became flesh in a Qualifier from which we came out last and playing poorly. The image cost was high and more, when he is compared with his two successors of his.

Today’s fifty-year-old Chemo, more seasoned and more of a trainer, takes no less of a risk with a Technical Unit for Minors it won’t work without the formal clubs as great leverage. This is not about headdresses that arrive and resolve; That the FPF accompanies him from the plan and does not leave him alone is the best to wish a brave guy, who is facing a possible claim or the worst of trolling. Good luck dear Chemo.
