But this resignation proves that Caruso Lombardi can’t get along with chairmans.

He had the same problem in Argentinos Jrs, where he resigned in the middle of the championship with the team doing really well.

This is bad news for Newell’s, but can’t exactly be considered surprising. Caruso Lombardi has had similar situations previously, most recently at Argentinos, where he has left due to personal conflicts rather than results.

He knew that was coming. Caruso said that he had been told only one of the big names was going to be sold, and that morning in practice, Hernan Bernardello was pulled into the locker room and told his pass had been sold to the same group that bought Salcedo. That is what sent him down to see Lopez after practice.

According to the press conference I saw, Caruso stated that Lopez actually asked for his resignation. Lopez hasn’t denied that, but he’s an odd bird who doesn’t seem to really care what Caruso says about him.

Caruso later said, and I tend to agree, that he felt like Lopez already had another coach lined up. Canal 3 in Rosario reports that they already have a verbal agreement with Gamboa and he is due to sign today (Saturday) and be introduced on Monday.

Caruso Lombardi is a charismatic and effective coach who can motivate small teams to create big shocks. How many times has he beaten Boca now?
I’m sure he’ll be back with whichever team really needs a lift for the 2009 Clausura to steer clear of relegation.
