The news that could change Boca's future and shakes Gago: "The cycle is at stake"

Boca reached a critical situation in the Copa Libertadores just at the beginning of the year. Fernando Gago 's team lost 1-0 in Peru against Alianza Lima in the second phase of the continental tournament. And they were on the verge of elimination, a fall that could mark the future of the club. But above all, the coach.
"It's February 25th and Boca is starting to play the year. The way Boca is coming in, it's a game in which the cycle is played. There are seven championship games, one Libertadores and one Copa Argentina. The way Boca is coming in, it's a game in which the cycle is played," said Martín Arévalo about the Boca coach.
«Gago has much more at stake than a match. It is a match for the coach, instead of prioritising schemes, to look at the players in the face and define what the formation is like. There are some names, but it depends on what the coach defines. The players do not know the starting 11» , said the journalist on Radio La Red.
The journalist gave a preview of a possible starting 11. "I give what I think Gago has in mind, always keeping a surprise that the coach can put in. Under normal conditions, I have Advíncula in the team for his personality. I have almost all the reinforcements available and some players who changed what Gago thought before Aldosivi," said Arévalo.
«For me, Marchesín is the goalkeeper, with a logical team of Advíncula, Battaglia, Rojo and Saracchi» , said Arévalo, although he gave rise to a possible unexpected entry. «The surprise there would be if Costa was left back or if the line of three appeared. Costa spoke with Gago, he said he is available, he doesn't want to miss him, he wants to play. But it is clear that Rojo does not play both centre-backs, I do not rule out a surprise with Gago» , he clarified.
«In the middle of the field, for me the one who gets in is Milton Delgado. He arrives with rhythm, the other day in a few minutes he showed what the five's manual is. He has to be well positioned, make the reliefs and be a permanent outlet. For me this makes Battaglia play in defense» , said Arévalo.
"Alarcón is sure to come in fresh. I didn't see Ander Herrera in good form, he was going to play, but I didn't see him in good form. He may have played on tiptoe knowing he was playing on Tuesday, or Zenón may have come in, who played well with Aldosivi. And then, for me, Cavani, Merentiel and Palacios up front," said Arévalo about Boca's lineup.
