Melero: “I have a nice memory of the last derby”

Gonzalo melero and Rodrigo Moreno were the last protagonists of the derby at Mestalla. Much has changed since then; “more in them than in us”, points out the Madrilenian. Little remains of that Celades team, in which Parejo, Coquelin, Rodrigo or Florenzi were starters. Of course, it was the first meeting after the stoppage of the competition for the coronavirus and, now, after the holiday period, faces are seen again on the first day of the championship. They already did it last weekend, but this time with a tie to nothing. However, LaLiga is something else.

We started with a very nice derby. It is clear that in the conditions we are in we know that it will be without an audience and it would be much more beautiful with fans, but it is still a derby. We are going to go with the maximum enthusiasm, trying to add the three points in the first game. Let's see if we can win at Mestalla for the first time and start LaLiga on the right foot“, assured Melero for the club's media.

A stadium, the black and white fiefdom, which brings back fond memories of the Granota midfielder. Melero took responsibility from eleven meters after Diakhaby's clumsy penalty in his first derby. “Personally I keep a nice memory of that game. I think the team did a good job there last season. It is clear that there are many changes, more in its that in us. U.S we maintain a very good base and the reinforcements I think are going to help us a lot. “

Neither does it count, from his point of view, as a scale of the preseason gig between Gracia's boys versus Paco's men. “They came to play the day before and pre-season matches have nothing to do with LaLiga“, he remarked. Before they will have to overcome a tough week of set-up, with three friendlies scheduled before the start of the season.”It is a very intense week, but we prefer that the preseason be like that. The more games the better, so in training they don't put us so much physical“joked the Madrilenian. Since, being a” shorter preseason than normal “, the players have made a great effort to get in tune with the first date.” just 15 days we have the first game officer, “he slipped.

By last, analyzed the works of the Ciutat and the desire of the staff to return to Orriols. “After playing in La Nucía the last days of the League There were many rumors among us and we discussed how it would turn out. We've even been there and it looks brutal. I think all the players we have to win back. Train there, play and see the fans again. Let's see if soon we can start playing there and also in the less period that the fans come and to be able to enjoy the new stadium together, “he settled.
