The coach of Almeria, Joan Francesc Ferrer ‘Ruby’, warned on the eve of the reception of Real Sociedad this Sunday, on the sixteenth day of Santander Leaguethat “defensive concentration will be very important” to try to beat the San Sebastian team, where he emphasized that it is very difficult to generate scoring opportunities and very dangerous “in transitions”.
The Catalan coach said, therefore, that they must be very attentive and, “without rejecting” the “idea of the game” of his team, try to “attack in a disorderly way” to avoid a possible quick attack from ‘txuri. urdin team’, in addition to “closing gaps to make their determined players uncomfortable up front”.
“We played against a great rival, in every way. It was third on its own merits and I think it sends both race and football. I can only praise Real, because I had the experience in 2018 -19 to play against them, depending on another result, that we got into Europe and we got into Spain,” he said.
He added that, “since then”, the Real Sociedad project has clearly gone “for more” and “continues to grow, with everyone: with the players at home, with the idea of the game, with no equal coaching staff and with a club. that he does the things of ‘ten'”, where he considers that, in his opinion, “it is one of the best projects developed in Spanish football”.
The Almería coach also praised his counterpart on the royalist bench, Imanol Alguacil, to whom he said that “he is part of a whole”, although he stressed that “without Imanol it would not be the same, it is”.
“My position is always the players first, (have) very good footballers and he and his coaching staff help them grow, and above all, that there is a project with a head, not to be nervous when there is no good result, to have a structure”, explains Rubi.
In this model, he added, “Imanol is the important part” in a team “with many variables, with many nuances and solutions in his game”, although he made it clear that he trusts his team, in ” Almería, which has already been seen often” and he played a “great game” in Cádiz or in the friendly against Torino.
“If we give that level and we keep it, we know that, at least, our rivals can’t beat us either. high level. Hopefully we can continue to have a good team continuity, which is good at pressing and rude to attack”, he explained.
The Almería coach clarified that “that’s the idea” and, although “later the game will be better or worse”, he has no “doubt” that they will “come out with that mentality”, insisting that “the key will be give a very high level” and will be “very strong at home” again, which is what the First Division requires “to beat teams of this depth”.
In the open market, he assured that the Colombian forward Luis Suárez will be available for this match, but he did not specify what the solution would be for his registration, which, in principle, should have a drop in the squad .
