In the context of Boca Juniors' ongoing challenges in finding their best form, fans have been openly debating the team's player selections. Recent performances have drawn scrutiny towards Juan Barinaga, the right-back who took over the position from Luis Advíncula after he transferred to Alianza Lima. With Barinaga's form fluctuating and Marcelo Weigandt available as a solid backup, questions are mounting on social media about why Lucas Blondel has not been incorporated into the competition for playing time.

Morena Beltrán, a public figure and commentator closely associated with Blondel, has openly criticized the lack of opportunities afforded to him. During a discussion on ESPN's F90 program, she questioned the team's assessment of Blondel's role – whether they view him strictly as a right-back or also as a right midfielder. Beltrán expressed confusion over the team's decisions to frequently rotate players in these positions while seemingly neglecting to give Blondel a chance, highlighting inconsistencies in their strategy.

The implications of Beltrán's comments point to larger issues within Boca Juniors, a club that is currently struggling to stabilize its lineup. As fans and analysts alike call for transparency and clearer communication from the coaching staff regarding player roles, the performance and future of players like Blondel remain closely watched by onlookers. The criticism of the coach, in this case, could also reflect wider dissatisfaction within the fanbase about the team’s direction and the effectiveness of leadership at this pivotal moment.
