    A bit much considering Bielsa has only been there a short period, before that Uruguay hadn’t been good in years

      We had a problematic transition between generations. Suárez, Cavani and Godín were far from their peak by 2020. And Valverde, Bentancur, Ugarte, and Araujo were still green.

      I always liked Bielsa, but the raw material and base level of every football team are set by the quality of the players.

      Position by position, this is the best generation of Uruguayan players at the very least since 1990.
