Schelotto To Stay…For Now At Least

Posted by: WVHooligan In: Columbus Crew| MLS| News and Rumors

Good news for Columbus Crew fans, their star midfielder Guillermo Barros Schelotto isn’t going to leave just yet for his hometown club in Argentina Gimnasia de La Plata. Crew coach Sigi Schmid said that Schelotto has maintained his desire to return to the Crew.

This all according to Ives. Schmid went on to say the following regarding Schelotto:

“He’s under contract with us and we just sent him his P-1 visa so as far as we’re concerned he is coming back.

“I know there’s some pressure from his home club for him to go back and play there but he hasn’t expressed to us that it is what he wants to do.”

Schmid did go on to say that he believes that Schelotto does have the right to leave on his own terms even after one season and honestly, I couldn’t agree more with him. Even though I’d hate to see a quality player leave after one season, I still believe he will suit it up this season, even if it is only until June, with the Crew.

From what I’ve heard in Columbus all winter (and fall) he would be leaving no matter what due to being homesick, but he isn’t the type to bail out before a contract.

More on this to come…

Guillermo, espero que esto sea mentira, por eso no nos defraudes, sigo creyendo en vos y te acompaño como cuendo fuimos a alentarte cuendo rendiste la ultima materia en el Normal 3, no tenemos que caer en los insultos facilistas y en la intolerancia, no creo que guille juegue con nosotros de esa manera, si esto es verdad y se confirma guille yo me sentire defraudado como hincha tuyo de toda la vida, y te pido por el bien tuyo y del lobo no vuelvas mas. Si es mentira y estos yanques que se tendrian que dedicar al basquet, futbol americano en ves de al futbol vayanse todos a la concha de su madre, en especial la MSL y el Columbus Crew.

Q gana el dt yankee con mentir??? NADA, no tiene motivos. En vez el sí, el no supo q decir cuando se le dio todo lo q pidio. Por favor, saquemosnos a esta gente de encima, no suman en nada y menos a la edad q tienen. Para marketing traigamos a Romario o a Varallo. Basta de falsos idolos. Obiamente el NUNCA va a admitir q no quiere venir, pero las actitudes hablan por si solas. Tengamos la memoria q ni el nio su hermano tuvieron.

Guillermo: sinceramente, quedate a vivir en EEUU…ahora entiendo a tu hermano cuando nos bravuconeó en el bosque cuando vino con Central. Uds no quieren a esta camiseta, a uds les tiran los colores azul y amarillo..exitista, bostero, cuando vuelvas a la Argentina en tu camión Juncadella lleno de morlacos, no va a alcanzar para comprar el amor de la hinchada más grande, la del club que te formó, que AHORA TE ODIA…
