This is where new leaders must be born, new players must raise their hands, that is missing, the players who participate with their national teams must have more weight in the team, give that extra, knowing that there are no longer leaders who They had been in the institution for years, because today it is their turn to put on that jacket and defend it as such, new leaders must be sought to get Cruz Azul out of where it is,” he expressed.
The fact that After the conquest of the ninth star, the players have left little by little of that great achievement, it is something that, for ‘Jerry’ Flores, it hurt the Cruz Azul locker room.
Logically, it has affected the fact that players who had a certain hierarchy have left, although it is not bad, because everything has its cycle, in the case of Cata Domínguez and Chuy Corona, they had a responsibility, beyond being captains or not, of teach the new generations how the team should be represented,” he declared.
Respect to the reinforcements that have arrived in La Maquina in recent campaigns and they have left much to be desired, ‘Jerry’ Flores commented that in previous years proven players were hired and with the desire to dress in light blue.

I remember that in my time arriving at Cruz Azul was like having won the lottery, because they noticed you for having done things well, a striker who was a scoring champion, because Cruz Azul already wanted him, first he had to prove himself to get there “To a big team, today anyone is coming, just to find an accommodation, I don’t see commitment in the players and it’s proven, it’s not just because I say so,” he noted.
As to the opportunity that was given to Joaquín Moreno as a coach of the cement complex, He indicated that he regrets that he has not been officially presentedto really validate his management.
The teacher (Joaquín Moreno) is an excellent coach, I know him and he is a great person, but what we must be aware of is that he has been the firefighter three or four times, each time they are left without a coach. The player, unconsciously, knows that he is interim, if they really wanted to give him the opportunity as such, then they would have to make a presentation, a press conference, then you already know that he is going to stay and that he is not going to be a coach who At the end of the season he leaves,” he said.
Finally, ‘Jerry’ Flores assured that unity within the cement team will be vital to be able to do things better in the remainder of the tournament.
I think that losing is natural, it is part of the game, I had to go through complicated moments like the ones we are experiencing right now and from my own experience, I think that closing ranks, staying united, doing a complete, real analysis, so that “Everyone should do their best and move this situation forward, I think that is what should be done,” he concluded.
