What? What he is telling the press is exactly what I was saying he needed to do: bench higuain. Whatever he said whether in the locker room or practice field worked.
Benching a play also says a lot without saying anything at all. If you have ever played any competitive before you should know. No one likes being benched and benching him acknowledges to Higuain his poor form was noticed. You can read everything since his goal: everyone knew he had a dip...why do think they all celebrated so hard after his goal?
