Pellegrini: “Joaquín deserves a statue”

Manuel Pellegrini, Betis coach, analyzed the keys to the victory against Osasuna: “We were conceding too many goals. Against Athletic or Eibar we received a lot, the tension was greater. But we have gone out to win all the time, although we did not specify many chances in the first half. We have not changed the way we go for victory. “

The Chilean insisted on the improvement in solidity: “It was important to change the dynamics, especially in terms of results. But not everything was negative when it was lost, you have to have conviction and have a clear diagnosis. We covered the bands well and covered well in defense. We maintained that order until the end and we finished with two good goals. “

About Fekir, he was resounding: “I spoke a lot with him, today he showed that he makes a difference in the category. We put him a little more advanced and he played a great game participating more in attack. Borja Iglesias? The goal will be good for him, Loren did a great job too “.

I breathe with victory: “I always breathe, I think I said that I had no doubts in what we were doing. Two versions of the team were seen, I am so glad I got back to good work. The next game will be exactly the same as today, we will continue working in the same way. “

Reliability behind: “I think we were solid in other games in this league. The image of the team deteriorated in the last two games. I think the team planned the game in a certain way, it is true that those who entered did very well and put the advantage on the scoreboard to make the work of their teammates good. “

Joaquin-Miranda Alliance: “Joaquín has a lot of merit. He has a brilliant attitude and entered the field as if he were the same age as Miranda. He deserves a statue”.

Competing mentality: “It is not the first time we have had this attitude. The team was aware of what we were doing.”


Raze yourself: “It was a tough defeat”

Osasuna coach Jagoba Arrasate called the 0-2 defeat against Betis “tough”, which leaves the Navarrese in relegation positions. At a press conference, the Basque coach highlighted the “frenetic” pace of the start before “little by little the game was losing gas” so that the meeting was uneven.

“It is an important month and we have started in the worst possible way. We do not have time for regrets and we must recover quickly to prepare a super important match,” The coach explained about the game they will play against Valladolid next Friday. “We have a challenge because the team has collapsed and we all have to work and improve to get out of this situation,” he commented with resignation.

On Darko and Calleri, Arrasate said that they are two players who need them and hopes that they will recover “their best version” because the team will appreciate it. “The team is aware to get points in an important month,” said the coach about a match “that was being matched and those details are worth it. We must improve and we have arguments for it.”

“Surely we lack speed and I think the team can improve. The degree of concern exists, but we face it as a challenge”Arrasate said.
