José Alberto and the FIFA sanction: “It will be resolved”

Many absences. “There are seven casualties. We have only 16 or 17 professionals. Above all, they affect us in the midfield plot. That’s where we have to think about it and try to get it right. It is not easy, we are going through a delicate moment. Until Christmas We have to squeeze and try to get the maximum points we can ”.

Is it the most delicate moment of the season? “It is never good to face the best teams and Eibar is a great team, recently released, with a great budget, with experience in the First Division. There are several players that Eibar has signed who were in our initial planning. At an economic level we cannot compete against them. But football is wonderful and it gives you the possibility that in any game anything happens ”.

Complicated week. “Regarding the FIFA sanction, José María (Muñoz, the judicial administrator) has given me complete peace of mind and assurance that it will be resolved. I already knew the information before you published it and I am calm. The relationship with him is close and good. As for the rest, that is what concerns us, find solutions for the team. They are not easy due to the number of casualties in the center of the field, but it is our job. That the people who come out tomorrow compete and give their all ”.

Restless about a possible third loss in a row? “It is a normal situation that happens in all teams in the competition. It is strange that at this point we have not had a dynamic of three defeats, all the teams go through there, but we do not go with that intention. We know that it is difficult, against a very powerful opponent and in a difficult scenario to score. We go with the ambition to compete ”.

Can there be a revolution in the starting eleven? “The revolution is the casualties we have, because they are very important players for us. That affects the competitive level of the squad, whoever does not see it is that he is blind. But we have to find solutions. I don’t like revolutions, they are very bad news to have to change due to injuries. “

Opportunity for less common players. “The squad is alive and we believe a lot in the team and the work we do. We are a family and we are in the same line all the areas of the club. We know how difficult this category is and that you can go through times like this. This is a bad dynamic, especially because of the defeat last Sunday, which was unexpected. It hurt us to lose, but it has to be a lesson: that anyone can win. They are the first to want to win and be as high as possible. We forget one thing, that in football there are 22 players and 11 defend some colors and the other 11, different ones. Málaga is an incredible club, but you can’t beat anyone with the shield. We have to work harder than the rivals and from there we will add ”.

Dani Lorenzo, are you ready to start? “It is a possibility that we handle. Dani in the Cup as the other day was good and if he is with us it is because the follow-up of the subsidiary, which is exhaustive, shows the level to go up to the first team. We value others that we can have in the squad ”.

Absences in the center of the field. “In the central plot, we are as we are. There are versatile players and we will try to hit one of them. “

Is José Alberto considering a change in the system? “We also value it. Drastic no, but it is one of the options that we propose. I don’t cling to any system. This week we value change because the players we have are different. We hope to be right with what is proposed ”.
