Espanyol is dying.
Espanyol is dying. Each within the classification, the place for the second day in a row it can proceed to say no, and within the psychological and soccer area. Luis García's miraculous aura served to stir the plenty, to resume the thrill within the stands, however to not change the face of a crew that, with Saturday's, has 5 consecutive defeats. Weeks move with out the group responding with arguments the place it ought to, on the pitch. The technician has quite a lot of work forward of him and little or no time. He has ten finals left, with 4 duels in opposition to direct rivals, three of them at house.
On his first day, in opposition to Athletic, Luis García shook up the eleven with modifications within the middle of the sphere. The coach tried to make his crew the protagonist with the lineup of gamers with a extra technical profile resembling José Gragera or Edu Expósito, within the firm of Sergi Darder. The sacrifice was Vini Souza, a fixture for Diego Martínez. And though he was removed from reaching it, the intention to not abuse the ball and to come back from behind with some judgment was appreciated by an viewers that's used to vulgarity this 12 months. Nevertheless, the excessive stress of Valverde's males suffocated the crew and the hinted bravery went utterly unnoticed. Aside from some clear begins, the frenzy to do away with the ball as quickly as potential predominated, and at all times taking part in backwards.
Unable to beat the environmental stress, some gamers as soon as once more supplied their worst model. On this method, the defensive errors reappeared like a home, the dearth of coordination when retrieving after a loss. A voracious crew like Athletic took benefit of all this. The Asturian coach must work on this, and can now have every week to implement extra touches of his soccer supply.
Any further, Espanyol have ten video games to attempt to not repeat the catastrophe that induced relegation three seasons in the past. The RCDE Stadium, the place the white-and-blue crew has solely gained three matches all through the course, will probably be key as a result of it can play three matches in opposition to direct rivals. It is going to be in opposition to Cadiz, Getafe and Almeria, the final day, all groups from the underside of the classification. At house they may also welcome Barça with 5 video games to go earlier than the tip of the League and Atlético, who might then have secured their place within the Champions League.
Along with Betis, in opposition to whom they may play subsequent Saturday on the Benito Villamarín, García's males will nonetheless need to journey to Vila-real, Sevilla, Vallecas and Valencia, all difficult locations.
The subsequent drawback that seems on García's agenda is the casualties of the laterals. Within the subsequent match, he won't be able to depend on Brian Oliván, nonetheless injured, nor with the suspended Óscar Gil and Aleix Vidal. Rubén Sánchez and Pierre-Gabriel would be the solely full-backs obtainable for Sevilla.
