Inheritance, key to promotion

Almería's investment pays off in Darwin players, even in the future with sales. However, the work prior to the sheikh has been essential to move from being relegated in Lugo two years ago to playing a promotion promotion. The work done by Fran and Óscar Fernández has borne fruit. Not in vain, and this is also Pedro Emanuel, the best rojiblancos figures were at the beginning of the course, with four consecutive victories, five in six games and seven days without losing; in addition to the game displayed.

Almeria have never been able to link four wins after that. The maximum is three, already with Guti: between November and December the UDA prevailed over Numancia, Tenerife and Mirandés, and in January over Lugo, Oviedo and Extremadura. Fran Fernández's legacy is working with footballers such as Corpas, De la Hoz, Owona or, the most striking case, Martos: with a file from the subsidiary, he ate the toast to the three left-handed wingers.

In preseason Óscar Fernández put that gasoline in so that the indálicos had a greater physique than their rivals. Pedro Emanuel acknowledged that the good numbers were part of the former Atlético. The Portuguese got 24 points in 14 days (1.71 units per game), for Guti's 32 in 21 days (1'52) and 8 in 7 duels by Mário Silva (1'14). The most regular Almería in its history has gone from less to more. Proof of the importance of this legacy is that Víctor Fortes, Ricardo Molina and part of the coaching staff continue, in addition to incorporating Jesús Muñoz mid-course.

Worse performance after the winter market

In the winter window, Almería detached six players. Five of them (René, Owona, Chema, Gaspar and Sekou) fThey were headlines with Pedro Emanuel. Sivera, Francis, Costas, Kaptoum, Enzo, Villalba and Barbero entered. Of the seven, none is indisputable, highlighting Costa s and Villalba. René, Owona, Chema, Gaspar and Sekou accumulated 4,702 minutes (with a goal from the center and six from the tip), for the 3,751 of the seven innings (two goals from Villalba).
