Always the voice of the wardrobe, due to his capacity for reflection and synthesis on occasions (creator of the Darwinian concept), Sergi Darder came on stage to assess the two games played by Espanyol. Two 0-0 that convey good feelings. Not only in the stands but in the squad. The Mallorcan, who visits his land this Friday, is clear that “If we continue like this, it will be a spectacular season for everyone.”
Settled in midfield, with the idea of “Improve and be more complete, because football evolves”, the footballer summarizes his ideas in “Ambition and prudence”. Ambition because Espanyol has drawn a solid line (“we have learned from mistakes, the image should be this. The feelings are positive and we have a lot of room for improvement”), but prudence because the emotional slide is complicated nowadays.
“If we lose in Mallorca they will say that we are going to go down,” began one of his speech Darder. Then he qualified the statement with his argumentation. “I got excited quickly. We should not think about saving ourselves as it is, but we would be wrong if we look at the long term. The teams compete a lot and if you don't win in two games you can put yourself down, but we always want to look up ”, said the youth squad Parakeet, who acknowledges that the squad lives outside of“ the rumors ”of the market and possible exits.
“Going out to win does not mean pressing up”
Like Joan Francesc Ferrer, Rubi, did two seasons ago, Vicente Moreno has seduced Darder. His ideas about the game have caught on in the footballer, who already last year offered a renewed version, like the one he wants to transmit now. “We will always go out and win. In my case, I want to at least make the same records as last season, and that in the First Division there is greater difficulty because we are not so dominant ”.
With a coach inside him, Darder also explained how they will set up the games. “Going out to win does not mean pressing up man to man, sometimes you have to give the initiative so that they make a mistake. It happened before Villarreal. Rulli gave it to Raúl and we were able to score. It was for insisting ”, he commented, while he also had words for the fans. “It seemed there were 40,000. We missed them. “
Regarding Mallorca, the next rival, the midfielder describes his start as “spectacular” and is clear that it will be a match in which “if we are not at our best level, we will lose ”. “Mallorca stands out for its safety, it is very difficult to score a goal”, He explained. Like Espanyol, which no one has beaten at the moment.
