Intense physical session and with the ball for two members of the Atlético squad. Luis Suárez and Renan Lodi They have been under the orders of Óscar Ortega, physical trainer, for more than an hour and they began to get in tune both from the physical point of view and with the ball. Suárez and Lodi, in addition to Trippier and Correa, joined the rojiblanca discipline last day 2. Both were with their respective teams in the Copa América and have not completed two weeks of preseason. The intention is that they gradually join the team.
Suárez completed a long series of shots on goal. The Prof focused balls to the area so that Suárez, far from his best form in this sense, could finish off. On other occasions, it was Lodi who crossed the line, although the actions had a different profile and it was another type of play, arriving at the baseline and passing back so that the Uruguayan finished first on goal. Suárez sharpens his aim. Your team will need you throughout the exercise, although for Vigo, Cholo has Correa and Marcos Llorente at the top. Giuliano is to the rescue. After working with the ball, both did series of running and speed. The question is whether Cholo will take Suárez to Vigo in case he has to use him in the final stretch of the crash.
The Atlético tip had to have joined before, but the coaching staff decided to give him one more week of work. At 34 years old, at Atlético they know that they have to dose him and that he will not be able to play every game or every minute. Lodi, for his part, faces a season that should be his confirmation as a high-level player. In the past campaign, what everyone expected did not evolve. Carrasco played many games as a left-handed winger and this season it is Saúl who will start in this position.
Atlético will have an afternoon session already fully preparing the clash against Celta. Cholo seems to have no doubts regarding the eleven: Oblak; Carrasco, Savic, Giménez, Hermoso, Saúl; Koke, Kondogbia, Lemar; Marcos Llorente and Correa are chosen by the rojiblanco coach for the league debut against the Vigo team.
