River Plate: News & comments

[pedernera]

Diaz was a fantastically sucessful coach at River winning the Libertadores Supercopa and several Argentine league titles.With River he had players like Francescoli,Crespo,Ortega,Gallardo,Aimar,Saviola etc so I guess it will be a trial for him working with much poorer players with much poorer facilities as River are really the Madrid of South America.The language problem will also be a problem but Im sure he will bring in some good quality Argentine players.By the way in Argentina they say he is interested in buying the club is this true?

what type of players do you need for next season river

there are colombians to buy ready to go to argentina name your need we got it

[pedernera]

Mario Yepes and someone who can score 25 league goals a year but this a Colombian problem

[The Double]

Newell's must've been 20 to 1 before the season to win it.

It doesn't look like River we'll be buying any Colombian players during the break. Although bringing back Yepes would definitely help out the defense. I don't know about others, but I wouldn't mind seeing Tressor Moreno in a River shirt. He impressed me a lot in the Copa earlier this year.

You've got to give credit where credit is due. "Tolo" Gallego and "El Burrito" played a major part in this championship for Newell's. Although they were both wearing Newell's shirts today, they will always be River first and foemost. Ortega doesn't look right wearing a Newell's shirt though. Now will see what happens next with him. If he makes his way back to River or not. I bet he'd love to play in the Copa for 2005. Newell's won't be in it unitl 2006. Will he still be around by then? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm............

Yepes was great in River and still is a good player but he wasnt no Pasarella eh what would you know you were still hanging around your dads sack and didnt have no clue of what soccer was and you still dont know jack.

[Ilovecolombia redded]

Ty matey,i just cant see why he came to our club,we aint in a very good position at the moment,5th from bottem,and if we go down we will go out of the football league here.. His first match he put two 18yrs olds in the squad,and what a start the team had,winning 2-1,,,i just hope Ramon can keep it going and get this football club back 2 where it belongs,,,trouble is we have a chairman who is tite as ********... Just hope Ramon gets on with him...

Owwwwwww and i havent heard owt about him wanting to buy the club,would be good though has he will do better job than this twat here at mo,and we might get some money to spend on players rather than having all the rejects and no good players... One day we might just play in the premiership,can only dream...

you could have a look at what happened in Spain last year where an Argentine businessman took control of Leganes 1 of the small teams in madrid filled the staff with Argentine players and put now national coach pekerman in charge.The boss ran out of cash(wont happen with Diaz)and Leganes are now in the third

tres 'grandes ausentes' en la nómina elegida por Leonardo Astrada, el técnico riverplatense: los volantes Luis González (quien se casará este viernes en Buenos Aires) y Javier Mascherano (está en España negociando su fichaje al Real Madrid), así como el delantero Marcelo Salas (se recupera de una lesión).

A última hora fue excluido de la lista el volante Gabriel Pereyra, quien sufrió una fractura en la muñeca izquierda en el partido del domingo anterior, frente a Huracán de Tres Arroyos.

River viajará a Colombia este miércoles a partir de las 12.30 p.m. de Argentina (10:30 hora colombiana), para el juego programado para el jueves a las 7:30 de la noche hora colombiana en el estadio El Campín.

El partido servirá para hacerle una homenaje a un ídolo de ambos equipos, Amadeo Carrizo, considerado uno de los mejores arqueros argentinos de la historia y quien vistió con éxito la camiseta de River y Millonarios.

La nómina 'millonaria'

Los 16 jugadores de River para el partido en mención son los siguientes: Franco Costanzo, Alejandro Saccone, Cristian Nasuti, Jesús Méndez, Luciano Leguizamón, Marcelo Gallardo (foto), Javier Gandolfi, Gastón Fernández, Cristian Tula, Nelson Cuevas, Víctor Zapata, Cristian Ledesma, Eduardo Tuzzio, Rubens Sambueza, José Sand y Maximiliano López(en platicas con el barca).

Se han vendido 27.000 boletas
