I have the conviction that it is not necessary “, was his position on the man of the Everton.

Your opinion on the forward of Atalanta they were stronger, even taking it to the personal level. “Muriel scores 3,000 goals per season, all for small teams, and in the national team he doesn’t score. The truth is, for multiple reasons of a personal nature, he wouldn’t have him in a delegation, and soccer I think that Falcao on one leg is more than Muriel. “.

If it is not going to be applied, it is better that he change it. What Reinaldo cannot lose is credibility “.
