Luis Fernando Lenis, in La Tocata of El País

The reactions for the very weak campaign of Deportivo Cali in this League, continue to be heard at all levels by former directors, partners and fans of the sugar team.

Luis Fernando Lenis, who in the past was part of the Executive Committee of the Verdiblanca squad, was harsh with the squad of players, but above all with Máyer Candelo, whom he does not see as having enough experience to bring forward a team in the category of Deportivo Cali.

“Deportivo Cali does not show anything in this tournament; we brought in a coach who does not have experience to manage a team like Deportivo Cali. He only came from directing Cortuluá, he does not have the route and that is why I consider that his arrival was a mistake by the directors”, said Lenis in La Tocata of El País.

And the former director of the sugar producers went further: “What happened in Bogotá against Millonarios was horrible. There is something in football called respect. And when they score the fourth goal, they know they are focusing on him and he ( Candelo) was dying of laughter. That “his blue sea” for the applause of the Millonarios fans, let him say it at home, but to the fans that he respects us. I don’t know who invented Candelo as a Cali coach , if he couldn’t with Cortuluá”.

Regarding the economic situation of the team, Lenis pointed out that “nobody can hide that, but Cali’s first problem now is football. We have players who are not enough to be last in the table. Taking that position is disrespectful to the players and the coaching staff.”

As for the concern that already harasses the fans, relegation, the former director was clear in La Tocata: “We cannot go to B, that’s why the urgency of a ‘point sharpener’ technician. The average is changing, we are going to stay down in that relegation table if we continue like this. We cannot do the same campaign as the first semester”.

Finally, Lenis advised the current managers to seek advice from experienced leaders in many fields, such as Rodrigo Otoya and Óscar Astudillo, to help them overcome this trance.

“Otoya is a highly respected person in the financial field, he can advise them on what should be done to find solutions. Astudillo is another person who should be very close to advise the current leaders,” he said.

Deportivo Cali is having a terrible campaign, occupying the last place in the table with just 1 point out of 15 possible.
