That the rhythm does not stop. Granada already has 44 games, 44! so far this season with a balance of 22 victories, eight draws and 14 defeats with 68 goals for and 57 against. Tremendous merit of this team that, in a borderline situation, between injuries, penalties, not registered in Europe and adjusted physical states, Diego Martínez has no choice but to do dina goldsmithing, managing minutes in the short and medium term. Every victory is a breath of oxygen, but there is no time for parties. After winning an entire Royal Society, we must think of another appointment with history in Budapest against Molde. This does not stop.
Soldier. 300 league games. The Valencian started again and leaving his skin as always. He only has four games left to formally renew. A procedure because this player has gasoline left for more than a year. And if it is in Granada, the better. For his interest, we reflect this phrase that he spread through his social networks: “Three points of authentic courage, pride, belief… They bring us closer to our goal and prepare us for the final on Thursday. Go”. Soldado has already played in the league no less than 300 games with 122 goals and 34 assists. Enormous.
Germán, the scorer defender. The one from San Fernando has been scoring at least one goal for nine consecutive seasons. And last Sunday he scored a gold one against Real Sociedad casually but no less effectively because a shot from Víctor Díaz rebounded him. “I would give him the goal,” acknowledged Germán. But the arbitration act was granted to the central. He already has three.
Foulquier, it would be a doubt. Unfortunately, the Granada infirmary continues to add tenants. The Frenchman retired due to a muscular problem that makes him a more than reasonable doubt for the match against Molde next Thursday. Let's see how Diego Martínez rebuilds the defense with Víctor Díaz as the only right-back.
Another puzzle for Diego. If Foulquier does not play and Víctor Díaz is a right back, everything indicates that Puertas will have to play a left back because Quini is not registered in Europe. Neither are Fede Vico, Quina and Adrián Marín. In addition, we must be aware of Eteki and Kenedy, also with discomfort, whose presence is expected.
The new return of Quini. The honor of this footballer is admirable. Despite his bad luck with injuries, he always recovers and without fear. Against Real Sociedad he was very good. “The victory gives us another shot of energy for the match against Molde,” he commented in the club's official media. Last week we played a good game in Bilbao, but we left with a bad taste in our mouths due to the defeat at the end ”he commented.
Improving last season. Looking at last year's classification on matchday 27 we find that Granada was ninth with 38 points. They are two points more than now, but a better position. This Granada is even better.
