The Chivas of Guadalajara They have just been eliminated from the Concacaf Champions League. Defeats are always accompanied by some problems within the locker room. Much has been said about a alleged division in the group in which Chicharito Hernández would be the protagonist. Isaác Brizuela laughs at this type of speculation.
Reports have indicated certain distancing of Javier Hernández within the Sacred Flock locker room. However, Brizuela was in charge of denying this information about the veteran Chivas forward.
“These are pure speculations and sometimes it even makes us laugh.. These are things that really make us laugh, but at the same time they make you angry because it is not possible that because of a simple image or some comment people will think the worst or believe that we are broken in the locker room, and We now take it as a joke and focus on continuing as we have been doing.“Brizuela said for Claro Sports.
Far from there being a distancing and division, Isaác Brizuela recognized that Javier Hernández has great weight and influence within the club.

“When he starts to speak, we remain silent and try to listen. and to learn from his entire career, from the experience he has and has gained. He has said it: ‘I have come to add, to fight for a position because coming here does not make me a starter from the first moment. It’s earning a position day by day’and I think that also motivates the teammate who obviously knows that the coach can respect some hierarchies, but at the end of the day, the best one is the one he is going to put in,” he added.
The elimination against Club América

“Obviously there is a little pain because we know that it is an international tournament and obviously we have the hope of continuing to advance and to continue getting closer to the goal of having another international title. I think that because of the performance we had in the second game, on the one hand, the team remains calm (…) We also realize that the team is prepared for that, to face any rival. We realized that if we put our mind to it and believe in each one of us as a team, then obviously it would be We can compete with any rival and on that side, it left us calm”, he concluded.
