Carlos Vela & Diego Reyes at Real Sociedad Vol. III [R]

I hate his decision...but we move on.

He is kicking spanish ass...I'm proud of that.

We can still compete without him.

 

In this situation there is no media nonsense to be fed. It has been him in those press conferences denying callups, unless Faitelson hired a double in order to make us think it was Vela denying to play for what I thought was his country.

 

Geeze

Am I the only one who thought his nets were directed at Arsenal?

 

Comments* not nets

 

No le ayudan en nada esas declaraciones...tienen razon de que los medios mexicanos les gusta criticar de mas, pero si es esa la razon por la que no quiere jugar por mexico, entonces que Chiquito es con todo respeto

 

We should burn him down...Vela is Frankenstein.

 

But that's the problem and it's his fault that it is a problem since he doesn't say why the fack he keeps denying callups. People love to blame Chepo and all you Vela excuse makers justify the blame, but when the blame is placed on Vela, you are all quick to generate excuses.

 

Aren't you making too much fuss about a vague statement?

 

So i am not justified to make conclusions based on Vela's behavior but you are justified to disregard everything I say because of a strawman, yes, very logical. And no, I not only do not watch anything Faitelson has to say, i rarely even watch anything on ESPN that is not a game.

 

Why, when you want to get some kind of intellectual superiority in a discussion on this board, you always write a response in spanish? I have no problem with it, I just find it odd.

 

That's fine if you give him the benefit of the doubt, that's your interpretation of the situation he has gotten himself into, but I don't give him the benefit of the doubt. If you are making assumptions based on your interpretations, then why is wrong for me to make mine?

Like you stated before, no one knows the actual reasons for his refusals, so until he clears shit up, there will be different assumptions made and they are justifiable.

 

thats fine, I have no problem with that. IMO, we have enough information to make an informed decision on the matter. Could it be the case that I am wrong, sure, but if we need 100% certainty on anything in order to make up our minds, then we should not have opinions on anything. I have no problem with people holding judgement. What I do find odd, is people on here defending any attack on him, as if we are all out to get him and he is the victim. He is not, we are just calling it like we see it.

 

Same here. I dont understand why people jump to his defense when all we are doing is giving our opinion. Im sure other players have issues with Chepo or FMF but no one has refused a call up. I form my opinion on what he says in interviews and press conferences. I think we might have to rename this thread " Positive comments on Carlos Vela at Real Sociedad or you will be called a troll or drama queen"

 

You said you give him the benefit of the doubt, so therefore you are assuming he is right. Like I said that's fine, but you can't dismiss the other takes on this situation, because just like your interpretation, mine can't be totally ruled out.

So based on the info we do have, Vela IMO comes out looking like a diva and a traitor and until you or someone else can convince her to state her reasoning for declining, then my opinion will stay the same. I am sure your opinion won't change either until we get the whole truth right?

 

Whatever his excuse may be, it has to be valid because if it truly was BS why would Chepo insist on calling him? I'm GUESSING that if it was a lame excuse Chepo would have written him off a long time ago. If Vela he didn't want to come because the media, or whoever it may be, criticized him, or because he didn't have a guaranteed playing time, I don't think very many people would classify those as valid excuses. What I'm getting at is if his excuses were really that lame Chepo would have said fack the guy a long time ago.

Maybe it isn't completely up to him. Maybe La Real has something to do with his decisions. Or it really could be that Vela is an idiot and is declining calls for BS reasons. Nobody knows what is really going on. All we can do is speculate and judge with limited details.

And for those that say that he needs to come out and talk, how would you like to have to explain yourself to the whole world everytime you made a decision at work? Let these guys live their lives and have someprivacy.

If he comes back someday, good. If he doesn't, too bad. I believe he's got more to lose than El Tri.

 

But you are taking a side. You aren't truly neutral, so you have assumed at least for the time being that Vela's refusals are justifiable.
