Ich habe keine Ahnung wohin ich dir die Geschichte zu Tennys Bad Boy packen soll, also verlink ich sie + pack sie hier rein:

Grauer Nebel kroch die Wände entlang als eine Gestalt, huschend durch das Dunkel, die Straße betritt. Jeffrey war neu in der Stadt und wusste noch nicht so recht, wie er mit seiner plötzlich neu erworbenen Freiheit umgehen sollte. Er war jetzt 117, klar kein alter für einen Vampir, aber er fühlte sich jetzt schon ausgemergelt und am Ende. Da rumpelte es plötzlich neben ihm und eine dünne schwarze Katze, der bei genauerem Hinsehen schon ein Ohr fehlte, schälte sich aus einer Mülltonne, die sie soeben umgeworfen hatte. Wie sie so dasaß und sich ersteinmal die Pfoten leckte, da kam ihm sein Vater wieder in den Sinn. 50 Jahre war es nun her, dass seine Mutter bei einem Unfall ums Leben kam und trotzdem hatte sich Drake alias Dracula Nebris Akatash Stone nie davon erholt. Wie die kleine Katze streunert er seither im Anwesen umher, holt sich mal hier ein Häppchen und mal da, springt bei Anrede sofort an die Decke oder geht in Lauerstellung. Gesprochen hat er mit seinen Kindern seither kein Wort. Jeffrey hatte oft versucht, ihn irgenwie aus seiner Psychose zu befreien, aber vergeblich. Der einst so große und mächtige Familienpatriarch war nur noch ein Schatten seiner Selbst. In dieser Zeit hatte sein Bruder Vlad genug Zeit um die Geschäfte vollständig zu übernehmen. Äußerlich mag er auf die meisten wie ein echter Gentleman wirken. Schließlich hat Vladislaw Dracula Ezrael Stone das gute Aussehen gepaart mit guten Manieren, vorzüglichem Modegeschmack, eine übermäßige Intelligenz und wirklich, wirklich großem Hunger nach mehr Macht nicht nur in die Wiege gelegt bekommen und auf natürliche Weise verinnerlicht, sondern er schärft auch jeden Tag seine Sinne und sein eigenes Ich, da es sein größtes Ziel ist alle anderen zu überschatten. Und zwar in jedweder Hinsicht. Darunter hatte vor allem seine Familie zu leiden. Den Väter die nur noch in Ecken kauern bringen kein Ansehen bei den anderen Vampirfamilien, aber genau das brauchte man um die Spitze zu erreichen. Der Zustand seines Vaters durfte auf keinen Fall nach außen dringen. Dass sein kleiner nichtszutziger Bruder ihm dabei nur im Weg stehen könnte, hatte er schnell erkannt. Jeffrey alias Jeremias Nebris Stone war anders als die anderen Vampire. seine Kraft war groß aber leider völlig ohne Kontrolle. Auch das Interesse daran mehr Macht zu erhalten und zu formen war bei Jeffrey nicht gerade groß ausgeprägt. Ständig wurde er dewegen von seinen großen Geschwistern gehänselt und gequält. Vlad machte sich ständig daran ihn "formen" zu wollen und verlangte unmögliche Sachen von ihm. Seine Schwester hingegen... ja seine Schwester..... Magda gilt als die hübscheste Vampirin der alten Zeit. Wer 462 Jahre Lebenszeit nur darauf verwendet das Äußere noch mehr zu formen und andere mit seiner Kunst zu bezaubern, dem ist es ein Leichtes, Jüngere von sich zu beeindrucken und sich gefügig zu machen. Für Magda war Jeffrey nur Luft. Er war zu klein und zu unbedeutend, als dass man Energie auf so jemanden verschwenden sollte. Der einzige Existenzgrund Jeffrey bestand bei Magda in der Annahme dass er, nun als der Kleinste, ihr ewiger kleine Diener sei. Sie sprach ihn nur an, wenn er ihr etwas holen oder zurechtmachen sollte ansonsten war ihr sein Dasein zuwider. Er wirkte immer so normal bis unterdurchschnittlich, bis auf die gelegentlichen Ausbrüche von Macht, die ihr dann teilweise auch Angst machten. Weswegen sie in den letzten Jahren Jeffrey sogar eher mied.

Die schwarze Katze war schon längst verschwunden, als Jeffrey sich von seinen Erinnerungen löste. Ja! er wollte endlich Leben, frei sein vom Zwang und Gehabe der Alten. Er wollte seine Gesellschaft selbst aussuchen, sich nicht nur in den Kreisen und Sphären der bekannten Vampirfamilien aufhalten, in denen er sich bis jetzt befand. Da er selbst meinte, seine Kraft wäre unterdurchschnittlich wollte er evt. sogar einen Weg finden, sich vom Vampirismus ganz zu lösen. Was ein Affront gegen seine Geschwister wäre, doch dafür hatte er sich noch nicht komplett entschieden, denn seine Mutter hätte das alles nicht gewollt. Doch er ging wenigstens soweit, seine Kräfte einzuschränken. Mithilfe von Zauberei und Hexensymbolen auf seiner Haut, wurde das Brodeln des vampirischen Blutes in ihm gemindert. Silberne Piercings in seiner Haut sollen eine unkontrollierten Ausbruch verhindern.

Aber an der neuen Schule war alles ganz anders, als er sich es vorgestellt hatte. Das Blut ihn ihm brachte die schwachen Menschen um ihn herum, dazu ihn zu verehren und ihm zu diensten zu sein. Nicht direkt aber eben indirekt. Jedes Mädchen stand auf ihn und jeder Junge wollte sein Kumpel sein. Da er aber um seiner selbst willen geliebt und gemocht werden wollte, wimmelte er alle ab. Schon bald galt er als kaltherziger, rüder "BadBoy" der sicherlich viel Dreck am stecken hat. Auf Tenny hingegen hatte seine Magie keinen Einfluss. Sie galt bei ihm als ein sogenannter "neumodischer " Vampir. Ha als ob man sich sowas noch freiwillig aussuchen könnte und als ob man dann noch zusammen mit Menschen leben wollte. Er verachtete sie zutiefst, was die anderen wohl spürten und deshalb bekam Tenny es zu spüren. Jeffrey selbst wusste nicht, das er der Grund für ihne Hänselein war, Ihm war das nur recht...und doch, hatte sie eindeutig etwas Besonderes an sich, das konnte er nicht leugnen.

Zu Tenny: sie weiß nicht dass er ein Vampir ist, da er seine Kräfte verschleiert, aber sie hat eine Ahnung.

Danke wenn ihr bis hierher gelesen habt, gebt doch noch nen Daumen hoch damit Misha es auch sieht.

Upcoming performances by Sarah Connolly

[NOTE: this post is now out of date. Check the schedule tag on my blog for the most recent version of this list.]

After the jump: an unofficial schedule of Sarah Connolly’s future performances. Those of you in Britain may catch a performance in London, Brighton, Oxford, Worcester, Buxton, Deal, Lewes, or Effingham (Surrey). Those on the Continent may see her in Berlin, Paris, Vienna, Brussels, Barcelona, Rotterdam, Schwarzenberg, Vilabertran (near Figueres, Catalunya), or Città della Pieve (in the province of Perugia). Those of us on this side of the Atlantic can look forward to concert dates in New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Atlanta, and Lenox, Massachusetts. Plus! I am adding online broadcast details as they become available.

This is not an authoritative list. These are the upcoming performances by Sarah Connolly that I have been able to learn about from Connolly's website (not currently being updated), her agent's website (Askonas Holt), Operabase, Connolly's Twitter, and generally ferreting around the web.

Some of these listings are not yet officially confirmed; you should of course check official sources before making plans and be aware that cast changes and cancellations can happen at any time.

I have added links to venue, ticketing, and broadcast information where available. Tips on new information are always welcome! Please contact me via email (verdiprati [at] selveamene [dot] com), Tumblr messaging, or ask box (plain prose only in the ask box; anything with links or an email address will get eaten by Tumblr filters) with corrections or additions.

Berlioz, Les nuits d’été with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment at the Southbank Centre, London, February 20, 2017. Part of a Berlioz and Mendelssohn concert—formerly headlined “Sarah Connolly’s Berlioz,” now “Sarah Connolly’s Nights of Summer”—directed by Kati Debretzeni.

Rossini, Stabat Mater at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées, Paris, March 2, 2017. Also starring Patricia Ciofi, Paolo Fanale, and Nahuel di Pierro. With the Orchestre National de France and the Chœur de Radio France conducted by James Gaffigan. Also on the program: Schubert’s Symphony No. 3. Update: although the TCE website still lists Connolly’s name as one of the soloists, the website for the orchestra (which is presumably responsible for the casting) has changed to list Varduhi Abrahamyan as the mezzo soloist.

[New details! Broadcast] This concert is scheduled for live broadcast on France Musique. France Musique keeps most but not all of their broadcasts online for catch-up listening for a few weeks after the original transmission; I can’t promise that this program will be available after the initial broadcast but it seems not unlikely.

[New details!] Recital at the Holywell Music Room, Oxford, March 6, 2016. Part of Connolly’s service as Oriel College's Visiting Musician for the 2016-17 academic year. Although the Oriel website does not mention Connolly’s accompanist nor the repertoire chosen for the recital, it would appear from Joseph Middleton’s website that the two of them will be performing the same works by Schumann, Mahler, Poulenc, Copland, and Richard Rodney Bennett programmed for their US tour (see the next three entries).

Recital at Spivey Hall, Clayton State University, Atlanta, March 11, 2017. With Joseph Middleton. Works by Schumann, Mahler, Poulenc, Copland, and Richard Rodney Bennett. Broadcast possibility: many of the performances at Spivey Hall are recorded for deferred broadcast.

Recitals at the Park Avenue Armory in New York, March 15 and 17, 2017. With Joseph Middleton. The Armory website does not mention the repertoire, but presumably the recital program on both nights will be the same as Connolly and Middleton are performing together in Atlanta (above) and San Francisco (below). After-the-fact UPDATE: Berlioz’ Les nuits d’été was substituted for the Mahler Rückert-lieder in the New York performances (I don’t know why, but maybe the venue asked for something different).

Recital at the Herbst Theatre, San Francisco, March 23, 2017. With Joseph Middleton. Songs by Schumann, Mahler, Poulenc, Copland, and Richard Rodney Bennett. Special note: according to the San Francisco Performances season brochure (PDF link), this concert is available for sponsorship by a Concert Partner. For a donation of $750 or more, a Concert Partner receives benefits including tickets to the performance and an opportunity to meet the artist.

Mahler, Das Lied von der Erde with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Chicago, March 30, March 31, and April 1, 2017. With Stephen Gould [edited after the fact: Gould withdrew from the second and third performances due to illness and was replaced by Richard Cox]. Bernard Haitink James Conlon [PDF] conducts. In a program also containing Schubert’s Symphony No. 8 (previously listed as Haydn’s Symphony No. 60).

Mahler, Symphony No. 8 “Symphony of a thousand” with the London Philharmonic Orchestra at the Royal Festival Hall, London, April 8, 2017. With Melanie Diener Judith Howarth, Anne Schwanewilms, Sofia Fomina, Patricia Bardon, Torsten Kerl Barry Banks, Matthias Goerne Stephen Gadd, Matthew Rose, the London Philharmonic Choir, and the Tiffin Boys’ Choir. Conducted by Vladimir Jurowski. UPDATE: As of April 6, Sarah Connolly has been replaced by Michaela Selinger.

[New details] Recital at Wigmore Hall, London, April 10, 2017. With Joseph Middleton. The recently-updated program features works by John Ireland, Frank Bridge, Gustav Holst, Benjamin Britten, and Sir Richard Rodney Bennett along with the first London performance of the Torsten Rasch song cycle A Welsh Night that Connolly and Middleton premiered at the Three Choirs Festival in 2015. In A Welsh Night, Rasch sets a collection of poems by the Welsh poet Alun Lewis; an orchestrated version of the songs will be premiered at the 2017 Three Choirs Festival, again with Connolly as the vocalist (see concert details below). UPDATE: As of April 7, Wigmore Hall has announced that Kitty Whately will step in for Sarah Connolly on Monday afternoon. As of this writing, the program details have been erased from the Wigmore website; presumably changes will be made, especially since the Rasch songs were written for Sarah Connolly and would not be in any other singer’s repertoire yet.

[Broadcast] As part of the BBC Radio 3 Lunchtime Concerts series, this recital will be broadcast live on BBC Radio 3.

Handel, Arias and Duets, Gala Concert of the Investec International Music Festival, St Theresa’s School, Effingham, Surrey, May 7, 2017. With Rosemary Joshua and The English Concert conducted by Harry Bicket.

[New!] Recital at the Brighton Festival, All Saints Church, Hove, May 11, 2017. With Joseph Middleton. Works by Schumann, Berlioz, Poulenc, Copland, and R. R. Bennett.

Brett Dean, Hamlet (Gertrude) at Glyndebourne, June 11 to July 6, 2017. Also starring Allan Clayton (Hamlet), Barbara Hannigan (Ophelia), Rod Gilfry (Claudius), Kim Begley (Polonius), and John Tomlinson (Ghost of Old Hamlet). With the London Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Vladimir Jurowski. Booking opens to the public on March 5, 2017.

[Livestream] The July 6 performance of Hamlet is scheduled for livestreaming to cinemas and online; the online stream will be free to watch. Hat tip to Avis Melodia for pointing this out in the Sarah Connolly fan group on Facebook.

Recital at Schubertiade Schwarzenberg, Austria, June 19, 2017. With Graham Johnson. Various works by Schubert, Brahms, and Wolf.

[New details!] Recital at the Deal Festival, St George’s Church, Deal, Kent, July 8, 2017. With Joseph Middleton in a program titled “Love and Life.”

Wagner, Das Rheingold (Fricka) at Tanglewood in Lenox, Massachusets, July 15, 2017. In a concert performance with the Boston Symphony Orchestra conducted by Andris Nelsons. Also starring Thomas J. Mayer (Wotan), Kim Begley (Loge), David Cangelosi (Mime), Jochen Schmeckenbecker (Alberich), Morris Robinson (Fasolt), Ain Anger (Fafner), Malin Christensson (Freia), Jacqueline Echols (Woglinde), Catherine Martin (Wellgunde), Renée Tatum (Flosshilde), Patricia Bardon (Erda), David Butt Philip (Froh), and Ryan McKinney (Donner).

[Broadcast: TBC] Although it is not yet on the broadcast schedule as of this writing, this Saturday night concert by the BSO will almost certainly be broadcast (and made available for listening on demand) by WGBH.

Recital at the Buxton Festival, Buxton, July 22, 2017. With Joseph Middleton. Songs by Schumann, Berlioz, Poulenc, Copland, and R. R. Bennett. (Thanks to an eagle-eyed Connolly fan for tipping me off to this listing!)

[New!] Solo performance in a fundraising concert for Common and Kind, Union Chapel, Islington, London, July 25, 2017. Mentioned passim in a Facebook post by the charity. Details TBA.

Torsten Rasch, A Welsh Night at the Three Choirs Festival, Worcester, July 26, 2017. In a concert with Strauss’s Metamorphosen and Janáček’s Glagolitic Mass. Conducted by Frank Beermann. A newly orchestrated version of Rasch’s song sequence A Welsh Night will be premiered at the 2017 Three Choirs Festival; Sarah Connolly performed the original version for mezzo-soprano and piano with Joseph Middleton at their 2015 Three Choirs recital.

Recital at Incontri in Terra di Siena [PDF link], Teatro degli Avvaloranti, Città della Pieve, Perugia, Italy, August 5, 2017. With accompanist Julius Drake. Program details TBC. Tickets go on sale April 1 and the festival website advises that “Booking is essential due to the limited number of seats.”

[New!] Recital at the Schubertíada Vilabertran, Vilabertran (near Figueres), Catalunya, August 24, 2017. With Malcolm Martineau. Songs by R. Strauss, Zemlinsky, Eisler, Korngold, Copland, and Britten. Broadcast possibility: many recitals from the 2015 Schubertíada Vilabertran, where Connolly made her festival debut, were broadcast either live or deferred on Catalunya Música; I’m hoping this recital from the 2017 festival will come up for broadcast, too.

[New!] Mahler, Symphony No. 2, “Resurrection,” with the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin, September 20, 2017. Vladimir Jurowski conducts and Maria Bengtsson sings the soprano part. Also with the Rundfunkchor Berlin. Tickets go on sale July 17, 2017.

[Broadcast] No details yet, but the Deutschlandradio Kultur logo appears on the page under the phrase “Concert with,” so I am assuming the concert will be broadcast either live or deferred.

Recital at Wigmore Hall, London, September 29, 2017. With Malcolm Martineau. Just the date is mentioned in the Wigmore Hall season brochure [PDF link], but thanks to an informant with access to a recent print mailing from the Wigmore, I can tell you that the program includes songs by Strauss, Zemlinsky, Eisler, Korngold, Copland, and Britten.

Mahler, Das Lied von der Erde at Kings Place, London, October 14, 2017. With Andrew Staples and the Aurora Orchestra conducted by Nicholas Collon. Das Lied will be played in an arrangement by Iain Farrington for sixteen instruments. This concert, oddly enough, is part of the orchestra’s “Mozart’s Piano” series, pairing Das Lied with Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 11.

[New! Details TBA] Participation in the Oxford Lieder Festival, Oxford, October 13-28. The theme for 2017 is “The Last of the Romantics—Mahler and Fin-de-Siècle Vienna.” I will update this list when I learn more about the details of Connolly’s participation.

[New!] Wagner, Tristan und Isolde (Brangäne) at the Gran Teatre del Liceu, Barcelona, November 28 and December 2, 4, 7, 10, 12, and 15, 2017. With Stefan Vinke (Tristan), Iréne Theorin (Isolde), Albert Dohmen (Marke), Greer Grimsley (Kurwenal), et al., in a production directed by Àlex Ollé. Musical direction by Josep Pons.

[New!] Handel, Ariodante (title role) at the Wiener Staatsoper, February 24 and 26 and March 1, 4, and 8, 2018. With Chen Reiss (Ginevra), Hila Fahima (Dalinda), Christphe Dumaux (Polinesso), and Rainer Trost (Lurcanio). The casting of the King of Scotland seems to be TBA. The production is directed by David McVicar and the music is supplied by Les Arts Florissants conducted by William Christie.

[Livestream] The opera is scheduled for livestreaming on Sunday, March 4. There is a fee of €14 to watch the livestream.

[New!] Mahler, Symphony No. 8 “Symphony of a Thousand” at de Doelen, Rotterdam, March 23 and 25, 2018. With the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Yannick Nézet-Séguin. The other soloists are Angela Meade, Erin Wall, Lisette Oropesa, Mihoko Fujimura, Michael Schade, Markus Werba, and Christof Fischesser. On choral duty are the Groot Omroep Koor, Rotterdam Symphony Chorus, Orfeon Donostiarra, and Nationaal Kinderkoor.

[New!] Mahler, Symphony No. 8 “Symphony of a Thousand” at BOZAR Centre for Fine Arts, Brussels, March 24, 2018. With the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra; same details as the Rotterdam performances listed above. Broadcast possibility: this concert is part of the 2018 Klarafestival sponsored by the Klara radio station, so it seems like a good candidate for broadcast.

[Masterclasses] Teaching duties for the Britten-Pears Young Artist Programme at Snape Maltings in Aldeburgh, England, March 23-April 1, 2018. A course on Handel’s Theodora to be co-taught with conductor Christian Curnyn. Although this doesn’t really count as a performance by Sarah Connolly, I am adding it to my “unofficial schedule” of her work with the thought that fans who live in the area might want to attend some of the public masterclasses Sarah Connolly will be teaching or the culminating performance by young artists she will have coached. (Note that the first weekend of this program clashes with the Mahler 8 concerts in Rotterdam, above; it is possible the students will start out working with Christian Curnyn and will pick up with Sarah Connolly a few days into the program.)

[New!] Wagner, Das Rheingold and Die Walküre (Fricka in both) at the Royal Opera, London, September 24 through October 28, 2018. A revival of Keith Warner’s Ring Cycle, with Antonio Pappano conducting. For cast and date details, see the ROH web pages linked above.

Previous versions of this list can be found under the schedule tag on this blog. This version published on February 18, 2017. Edited February 23 to add the Rotterdam Mahler 8, Schubertíada Vilabertran, and the France Musique broadcast of the Rossini Stabat Mater.

Edited April 6 to reflect the casting changes for the LPO Mahler 8, to update the link for the Rasch piece at the Three Choirs Festival, and to add the Vienna Ariodante and the Covent Garden Ring Cycle. Edited April 7 to add the Mahler 2 in Berlin and to reflect Connolly’s withdrawal from the Wigmore Hall lunchtime recital on April 10. Edited April 8 to add program details for the September 29 recital at Wigmore Hall. I may continue to edit this list if I receive new information.

A vueltas con Drake Diener

¿Qué le pasa a Drake Diener?

Supongo que no habrá seguidor del CAI Zaragoza que a estas alturas de temporada -todavía comienzos, cabe recordar- no se haya formulado dicha cuestión en su cabeza.

¿Si es tan bueno, y su carrera así lo acredita, por qué no funciona?

Lo cierto es que los condicionantes para que un jugador encaje en un equipo determinado son varios y difíciles de determinar. Pueden ir desde cosas obvias, como un mal momento de forma o confianza, hasta cuestiones complejas que pasan por el plano personal. Aunque en muchas ocasiones, la pregunta no solo tiene una única respuesta y es complicado que salga a la luz pública.

Desde la lejanía, solo tenemos la certeza de que los 14 minutos que jugó contra la Penya (anotando dos únicos puntos habiendo realizado tres tristes lanzamientos de campo, 1/1 en T2 y 0/2 en T3) no son suficientes para el, posiblemente, jugador con mayor cartel que jamás ha fichado el CAI Zaragoza (al menos entre los ya consagrados). La cosa no se queda en un partido puntual, pues ante el Real Madrid firmó una estadística similar (0/2 en T2, 0/2 en T3 y 2/2 en TL en apenas 16 minutos de juego).

Sin duda, cuando el pasado 22 de agosto el CAI anunció el fichaje del norteamericano, las expectativas eran otras.

¿Esta a gusto Diener en Zaragoza?

Curiosamente, el escolta es uno de los jugadores designados por la Eurocup para mantener un blog en el que ir contando su semana a semana. Como parte de la previa del enfrentamiento de los rojillos contra el Venecia, en el que es su regreso a Italia, el jugador publicó una entrada de título sospechoso.

“Magníficas noticias para el CAI Zaragoza”

Lo cierto es que, tras la lastimosa derrota ante el Joventut, no parece el inicio ideal. No obstante, uno que ya tiene algunos tiros en esto de la edición, casi podría asegurar que ese título ha sido puesto desde la página de la Eurocup, seguramente por alguien ajeno al clima de preocupación que yo parezco percibir desde Zaragoza.

En su entrada, Diener habla de lo bien que le va al equipo en Eurocup -no le falta razón- y muestra el principal motivo de su felicidad.

“Tengo mejores noticias (que los resultados deportivos). ¡Mi mujer y yo estamos esperando un bebé! Será nuestro tercer hijo y nacerá en marzo. No sé si será un chico o una chica, pero sé que nacerá en Zaragoza. Los otros dos nacieron en Italia, y se están adaptando muy bien a su nueva ciudad. Como he dicho en otras entradas, se trata de la ciudad más grande en la que he jugado. Zaragoza tiene muchos parques, zonas de recreo, centros comerciales y cosas así. Mi familia se ha adaptado muy bien a la ciudad y estamos disfrutando mucho aquí”

Leyendo esto, cualquiera piensa que su adaptación a la ciudad es buena. Diener está feliz en Zaragoza, también su familia -tema nada baladí, se han visto casos en los que jugadores extranjeros han preferido que sus esposas tengan a sus hijos en sus países de origen- y habla en clave futuro.

Entre otras muchas cosas, también habla de la química de equipo existente.

“Tenemos un gran grupo de tíos aquí y nos llevamos muy bien. ¿Conocéis el juego del Risk? Cuando estamos de viaje solemos jugarlo en el iPad, y es muy divertido. Solemos jugar cinco o seis, y yo soy el número uno. Estas sesiones de Risk son una parte importante de nuestra temporada (...)”

La otra vertiente por la que Diener quizá no rinde como se espera es la deportiva. Si alguien pide mi opinión, creo que no se juega lo suficiente para un anotador de tal magnitud.

En el Periodico de Aragón, Raquel Machín habló con el escolta a modo de previa del compromiso de Eurocup. El norteamericano dice no estar preocupado por sus números, aunque sí realiza una declaración que llama la atención.

“Estoy bien, sé que en cuanto a anotación no estoy dando todo lo que puedo dar pero siempre intento hacer lo posible por ayudar al equipo. Sin embargo, en Badalona no hice por ayudar al equipo y eso es frustrante. Contra el Ulm solo anoté dos puntos pero sí hice algo más. Tengo un rol diferente al que he tenido a lo largo de mi carrera y tengo que ajustarme a él”

¿Cuál es el nuevo rol de Diener en el equipo? ¿Qué es eso nuevo que le pide Ruiz Lorente a un jugador tan contrastado como él?

A pesar de que la situación es totalmente reversible, el CAI no está bien. Lograr una versión reconocible de Drake Diener debería ser el primer paso hacia la recuperación.
