The Brazilian coach left a great legacy in the Felino team. It is not easy to sustain a project for more than a decade, much less come out with the recognition of players, management and fans . All this was achieved by Ferretti and it is the Herrera’s new goal .

In this sense, Herrera began to describe what his strategies and styles that he will keep on the team. He also highlighted that each of the minimum aspects will be key to achieving the objectives.

“ We will seek that Tigres is a balanced team , that knows attack well and that he does it with a lot of people, but when we don’t have the ball we’ll get it back as soon as possible. “, considered Miguel.

Within the Tigres squad there are many hierarchical players. Among them are Nicolás López, André-Pierre Gignac and even the flagrant signing of the French league, Florian Thauvin . Faced with this responsibility, the “Louse” revealed that prefers to hold conversations with the entire campus .

“I know it is a healthy group, there is not much to put together. As time goes by I will talk to the entire campus because it is important to listen to what they want . There will be a lot of talks, more than with the leaders, with the whole group . For me the 25 or 26 players that we have will be important to generate internal competition ”, he explained.

According to Miguel Herrera, his plan is to be a “Tuca”, however, reaching that goal will not be easy at all. Matching Ricardo Ferretti’s achievements means winning five League titles, one Concacaf Champions League and even get a second place in the Club World Cup .
