The coach of the Real Valladolid, Sergio González, has assured this Wednesday, in a telematic press conference, that “the games that are played at home, you have to go out to win them, regardless of the position in which the team is” and therefore, before Osasuna, the goal is to “go all out”.
“We know the situation we have, with fewer points than we wanted at this point in the season but, regardless of where we are in the standings, we have to go to win against Osasuna, because it is a party of an important relevance “, has qualified.
And they have their full attention on this appointment, hence “no” is considering taking stock of the first third of the campaign, although it is clear that “there are fewer points” than they expected and those they have deserved and that “You have to do self-criticism, be demanding and see where you have failed so as not to have added more.”
In his opinion, “the team has shown a change of attitude and dynamics in the last four games, with two victories and a draw that could have been more, and a last clash against Atlético de Madrid in which they competed and in the that there were simple errors to solve “.
Therefore, “you have to be strong in the basics and grow in the alternatives and the magic of football, recovering those feelings that have been transmitted of strength,” he added, while confirming the return of Orellana to the call, together Javi Sánchez and Joaquín, already recovered too.
The one who remains a doubt for this league commitment is Sergi Guardiola, regarding whom “it will be valued if he can really get there”, although “the player is pushing himself to the maximum to be available” and trusts that he is from the game, if he maintains his evolution.
Although Real Valladolid has a complicated calendar ahead, with Sevilla and Barcelona on the near horizon, Sergio “does not” consider it, but rather they have “focused the week on the immediate, which is Osasuna and, once This game is played, that's when it will go on to the next one. “
“Osasuna is the first war we have and they do so many things well that you have to be fully concentrated to prevent them from doing them, slowing down their lateral centers, their passing game, their quality from set pieces or their aggressiveness in disputes over the ball, that allows them to be the rival that steals the most balls in the opposite field, “he analyzed.
In addition, the Blanquivioleta team has to try to “play more on the outside, win the backs of the full-backs and seek that completion, because we are creating chances and we have to materialize them,” he added.
Sergio now has another option in the center of the field, after the appearance of Roque Mesa, and he will be able to choose between “playing with more creative players, or with those who provide greater balance or seek more outlets”, depending on what he considers necessary every rival and every encounter.
Nor has he wanted to confirm if he will return to the usual 4-4-2 system, with which they play “more comfortable” or will bet on a 4-1-4-1 “thinking that his points are good in the air game” and this The decision will depend, to a large extent, on whether Guardiola can reach the game in conditions.
In line with this topic, he clarified that “Weissman will have to wait for his opportunity, as Marcos André did and fight for the continuity that he does not have now. He is a player who has to give to the team, but the moment to choose his appearance is what to be determined, “he warned.
Finally, the Catalan coach has commented that they have been “surprised” by the results that are being given in LaLiga, “because they are not being the usual ones”, which shows that “everything affects” and that “all the teams are squeezing themselves and they demand a good version of the rival. “
