The Leganes will face the next two days before Eibar and Sporting (both away from home) notably affected by the fifa virus. Bárcenas, Gaku and Omeruo have been summoned by Panama, Japan and Nigeria respectively and they will be absent, for sure, in the first of those exits. For the second in El Molinón they are likely to arrive fair or not.
All three are recurring pieces on the board of Garitano, which will give the opportunity for players from the second unit to demonstrate before the coach Bergara the need to train more frequently on your coach's plans. It is the reading that the coaching staff takes from these three casualties that, yes, they recognize that they are very important, but they also believe that the Blue and White squad is well prepared to assimilate them.
“You have to balance all those situations. It is what is going to happen to us. With all that we have to think about being better and competing little by little ”, analyzed the technician last Thursday regarding these absences. In the case of Barcenas, several candidates emerge as options to supply the attacker. Aviles or Fede Vico they are, for example, band solutions.
It is true that both are physically limited. The first, due to injury, the second, due to inactivity prior to his signing. But with a week of training ahead, in Butarque they believe that when the time comes, they will be able to perform. Too Juan Muñoz you can take advantage of the low Barcenas, who before Ibiza acted as second striker, the ideal position of the Sevillian.
Relays for Gaku and Omeruo
In the middle, the low of Gaku could open the doors of premature ownership to Ruben Pardo, last blue and white signing. Despite having recently closed, having been an important piece last season gives him an advantage to adapt quickly and be able to exercise in the core from now on. Recio or Doukouré, although of a different profile, they could also play in the middle. They both long for a bigger role. This could be your chance.
In the case of Omeruo, Tarín points to the main relief of the Nigerian, but it could also be the moment of Sergio Gonzalez, still unprecedented this season despite the fact that the closed course closed him as a regular player in the lineups, a reason that invites optimism regarding his performance: yes Garitano bet on him there is confidence that he will perform.
Gaku returns with Japan
The calls of the internationals were already last season a common problem for the Leganes that even affected, albeit collaterally, the promotion playoffs to First, when Roberto Rosales was called with Venezuela for various qualifying matches for the Qatar World Cup and for the America's Cup. The side did not count too much in the Lega's plans, which minimized the consequences of his discharge.
Gaku He could also have been called with Japan, but the Japanese ignored him in that call and the central midfielder could play against him. Lightning that tie. Now he has returned to act as one of its captains and a fundamental piece in a return that fully affects the pepineros.
