Athletic, how about tonight?

Despite the fact that this is not a traditionally wild place, those in Pacheta have as much or more at stake than we do and they are not there to give anything away. They have to put the land in the way about the relegation and fix the mess that means the loss of two points in their visit to the Elche land against a team that is almost relegated, but that still breathes and bites.

Let’s remember that this Valladolid managed to win recently in San Sebastián, so there is nothing to trust. By the way, spectacular guy and enormously human Pacheta, deserving of the best of luck… although logically from Saturday.

The rojiblancos recent numbers in the League, very poor. After the World Cup, team numbers drop. Beyond the capital duel for qualifying for the Cup final, we face a mandatory part of the league calendar. It’s time to get closer, and very close, to those above. Valladolid, Getafe, Espanyol and Real Sociedad are our next rivals. The message that should be given from the club, starting with the coach, should be ambition, nothing else.

We know, as they certainly want to convey to us, that there are no small opponents and it is not easy to beat anyone in the First Division. TRUE. Similarly, we should not be easily won over by others who are really inferior, as it happens. and our way of competing leaves room for doubt about how we face certain conflicts. Nothing more is needed than fight and ambition, and there are times ten minutes into the game when we have more than a reasonable doubt as to what we’re in for.

Let’s remember again: 0 points against Girona this season. If we don’t react now, when will we?

In a season where the traditional contenders for European competition have been left far behind and even the Champions like Seville and Valencia, who are currently fighting to escape relegation, we have not been able to take advantage of the situation. Looking at the classification shows us that not only were we able to win those two positions, but we lost our natural place because of our own mistakes and not doing our homework where we should have.

Rayo Vallecano and Osasuna may not be required to do what they do, but there they are, in front of us. And in the case of Navarrese, with the addition that also leads the cup tie that we face after playing the first leg in El Sadar.

The best Inigo Martinez

The team has recovered the best Iñigo Martínez and we hope that our list of central defenders can recover the immeasurable Yeray for the goal, which Vivian perfectly replaces when needed. With the return of Sancet after serving a ban with no tail or no tail, we regained the game and goal. He has to give us to win and convince and get out of the ordinary as soon as possible and believe in ambitious goals. That’s what we were sold on both during the election and when the goals for this season were clearly discussed.

If nothing goes wrong, here in seven days.
