Mauricio Pellegrino continues to maintain the mystery regarding his first choice goalkeeper. The Argentine coach has given chances to both http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vicente-Guaita-c36003, and has to show his preference for one over the other.
Valencia’s latest training session saw the Brazilian being given an extended run, hinting at a possible  starting berth in their next La Liga encounter.
Despite the preparations, the assured goalkeeper is in the dark about his role with the first team, revealing that Pellegrino has yet to tell him or Guaita about it: "he has not said anything about whether the coach will have alternating."
Continuing on the topic, Alves did not want to get embroiled in a fight with his Spanish counterpart, claiming that it is not in his hands to allocate who gets how many minutes. "I do not choose anything, the coach chooses," he said.
The debate has picked up again with Vicente Guaita returning to first team fold after an extended run on the sidelines thanks to a right thigh injury. The goalkeeper was afforded minutes by Pellegrino in their latest club friendly at El Collao against Alcoyano.
Guaita did not beat around the bush to state his ambitions for the season after the fixture: "I go back to play all this season."

that reflects their true stature in Spanish top flight football.
Los Che take on the challenge of Celta Vigo in their next league encounter, with Alves sharing that he will do his best to prove his worth: "with all due respect to Celtic, I think we should start scoring points at home. Escaped us against Deportivo and
now we must recover the lost points."
