Sampaoli has no plans to resign or change his playing style

Date:

Jorge Sampaoli is living his worst moment as Sevilla coach. The defeat against Girona, and his insistence on the idea of ​​wanting to get the ball out from the back will dominate, in the way the team lost in the last minute, hurt the Argentine, who this Monday had to listen to questions about if he plans to resign in the event that the club cannot provide him with the promised signings.

“I have no intention of changing this reality (to continue in office). Sometimes a person believes that the best decisions are to escape or leave and they already see that what excites me the most is the continue,” said the Argentine coach, who He did not manage to remove the team from the situation in which it finds itself in the table.

“When I came to the club, the club was in the same situation as it is now, very committed and urgent, with many institutional, political, sports problems. And I came to try to help from my way of feeling football and seeing the possibility of I am able to change the direction of the team so that it does not suffer from what it experienced. On this path I get up every day, working so that the team can transfer ideas together and play to win games “, added Sampaoli who continues to think that the best way to get Sevilla out of the situation he is in is to play in a way that “lasts over time” and propose things, “like the big teams”.

In the press conference before the Cup match against Alavés, Sampaoli assured that he is still waiting for the promised reinforcements. “Before coming here, I analyzed and I informed the president and vice president, saying what is missing to bring a team together with what I feel as a coach. The deadline for signing ends on the 31st and from there I have to see how I manage a situation that I did not expect and that is also what makes me stronger as a coach, because I have to make a team with others different tools, hoping that something qualitative (a signing) will emerge. to decompress and that this is a goal in favor and not a goal against. I cannot decide if the project corresponds or not, the project is managed by the club”, he insisted.

the style does not change

Sampaoli again argued with the press about the propriety of risking the ball near his own goal with the players he has in the squad. “There are a lot of situations where the team comes out very well with some touches and formations in the opponent’s field. Otherwise, everything goes back and forth, and I’m not going to go that way. The big teams are the ones that stay in time . I don’t consider that the ball travels all the time to a receiver that isn’t his,” he insisted.

“Going out with the ball is my game model, I’ve already here. There are few passes in our own field and many passes in the opponent’s field, but when we don’t have the capacity to play in the opponent’s field, the ball will come back, and when it comes back, we have to improve that restart that makes us uncomfortable and makes us decisions that are not perfect. In any case the idea is to play a lot of passes in our own half, because there are a lot of passes under pressure from the rival near my goal I don’t consider it the best. I have to get to the rival field in a better condition than the rival and start playing there. Against Getafe, we start throwing the ball in the rival field and it came back quickly, we had a very bad time. But the picture is of mistakes where the rival scored and there were also many situations where my ponan came to several touches and reached the rival field, generating several possibilities. Otherwise, it’s all back and forth and I don’t feel football that way, I’m trying to be the team that has the leading role from the ball”, he added.

Finally, he referred to Alavés. “They have a very aggressive team, even more so at home, and they will try to put pressure on us every moment of the game. I know them, I have watched many games there and the home team feels a lot, a lot of people encouraged them to attack. They have a lot of energy to get the ball back quickly and a lot of attack. For us it’s a challenge, because they have a squad that will go up and we have to look, in that scenario, what plan game we have to play against that rival”.
