The whites, with no margin for error and with a hellish calendar, welcome a team that entrusts itself to Voro to appease the peace
For the eighth time in the past fifteen years, Valencia turns to Salvador González, better known as Voro, in the hope that his football knowledge, good manners and cot death Valencianism will serve to defuse a crisis that will once again bring the club closer together . to the abyss of the city of Turia. The departure of Gennaro Gattuso, precipitated by the Calabrian coach’s frustration with Meriton’s chaotic management, has further inflamed the parish’s already fiery spirit with Peter Lim, the millionaire seeking refuge in Singapore as his employees try to contain the flames. in Levantine territory with no refuge but empty promises. On Tuesday, about 200 supporters gathered at the doors of the offices and shouted ‘Lim go home’. Such is the landscape.
The institutional stagnation affects the sporting depression of a side bordering on the relegation places, saw the winter transfer window close without signings to appease the fans and opens the cycle in the worst possible scenario: in the home of the current League champions, it appears urgent and choked by a hellish calendar.
“We are in the semi-finals of the cup, in the round of 16 of the Champions League and it’s main competition, in the semi-finals of a World Cup for clubs and in the competition battle. We are not going to throw away any competition because this club is not doing it. We have to dose the players because we have an incredible schedule. It doesn’t stop here because the league, FIFA, the federation and UEFA want to do their thing,” Carlo Ancelotti shouted before handing out a message to the sailors on Wednesday: “If the players get tired, we’ll close here.”
The wake-up call comes in a particularly congested section for Real Madrid, a team surfing in four different tournaments while dealing with the repercussions of the World Cup in Qatar on a team whose wardrobe includes the existence of several leftovers. lowers and the drip hurts from injuries. Lucas Vázquez, Alaba and Mendy remain in the infirmary, from where Carvajal and Tchouaméni depart. The situation is particularly sensitive in a curiously rising rear end. “The last three games we were pretty solid and against Atlético we only conceded one goal,” said Carletto in the preview of the game in which his team has no margin of error.
Sunday’s game against Real Sociedad finally showed an exuberant version of Real Madrid under pressure, but delivered a meager draw that widened the gap to Barça. “We failed in some games, but we have the rhythm of last year. Barcelona are doing well, but at the moment we have confidence and can fight to the end,” Ancelotti snapped ahead of a duel with some unknowns in his eleven and several certainties.
Carletto hinted that Camavinga will again act as a false left-back, which in turn would imply that Nacho would keep his position on the right-hander side. Carvajal, with only a few workouts this week, needs rhythm, as does Tchouaméni, unprecedented in the last six rounds. So everything points to the same poster that appeared four days ago against Real Sociedad.
Voro misses Kluivert, Thierry, Nico and Domènech due to injury, but he can count on Gayà and Cavani for his restart. The man from La Alcudia led Valencia in 46 games, with a record of 22 wins, 7 draws and 17 losses. In 2008 he took over black and white for the first time after the sacking of Ronald Koeman, who left Valencia on the verge of relegation. He saved the category with four wins in five days and a single blemish: a 6-0 win against Barça at Camp Nou. Since then he has served as a fire extinguisher six more times and is terrifying.
“What gives me the strength to be optimistic is that there are still 20 games to go. I’m not afraid, we’re going to fight, I have no doubt about it”, explained in the previous one technician who appeals to sacrifice and the union of the stand to get out of the pit. “There is no break in a dressing room who was against a coach. This helps a lot because there is nothing to fix. I watched all the matches from the outside, but without any technical matches. What I told them is that we need their commitment, their dedication and what the club needs We will try to give them the necessary tools to improve”, he summarized on the eve of the visit to the Bernabéu.
