Alberta Futbol Club’s general manger, Henry Thenard, and head coach, Luc Bolton, had a decision to make: keep or trade the recently acquired Loris Guerrero, a goal scorer who was seen as a rising young talent. His previous coaches had described him as immature, so Thenard and Bolton knew this player would require development. However, they were not prepared for a player who appeared apathetic, disregarded team rules, arrived late for team practices and meetings, and performed below his ability. Guerrero also failed to gel with teammates and created tension over team rules and norms. Thenard and Bolton wanted respect and results and were willing to work with Guerrero to get that. However, every attempt to connect with him or to hold him to account fell flat. Finally, when Guerrero failed, once again, to return on time from national team duty, without notifying the team, a decision needed to be made regarding his future at Alberta Futbol Club. Finding another forward as talented as him would be daunting, so letting him go could result in a gaping hole in the roster. However, his negative impact on team morale might be too great to continue fostering him.
