Herculez Gomez

You've got six months to make a case and earn your place.

Well, you'd say less than that.

Well, well.

It is less than that, Chris, and you're right, because there's only two fixtures for the national team until pretty much the send-off for the World Cup.

Pablo Vargas has been phenomenal.

Pablo Vargas has been tremendous.

The bad news is they're in 15th place.

The good news is they're four spots, they're four points out of ninth place Elche.

So it's a very tight race.

And then Girona's turning a corner.

Yes.

And they're starting to play better.

The good news is,

His squad is way too good to be in 15th place.

Right.

The good news is he's got the players to play a certain brand of football where I don't think you need to be worried about a relegation battle and to be playing just digging for points.

The bad news is this club still has the stench of Emmanuel Al-Wazir.

And he was a legendary coach there, did good things, built a very good squad.

It's going to be a tough act to follow, one that nobody's done yet.

That is the bad news.
