Raúl Albiol, defender of Villarrealfocused this Sunday, after a 3-1 loss against Atlético de Madridthat it must “hurt more for his team to lose,” because otherwise “you get into a rut and don’t react,” and he said that Marcelino Garcia Totalhis future coach, “wanted to take the team and train it.”
“We have been through a complicated time, with the two changes of coaches. It is about knowing how to react to defeats. We are not doing it. It has to hurt us more to lose. We have to be screwed for losing, individually and together, and, from there, that makes you closer to victory,” he told ‘Movistar’.
“If you lose and you don’t take the loss as you should, the team doesn’t react. And that’s not happening now. I hope this defeat hurts us, even though we fought and had a very good first half. “We have fifteen days with the new coach to work and think about winning the next game,” he continued.
“It’s about demanding ourselves. Once you are defeated, the defeat must last for 24 hours. And that’s why you train hard again and try to win next time. If it doesn’t hurt to lose, eventually you get into a cycle of losing, losing, losing and you don’t react. Loser in the game all lose. Big teams react. And we have to do it. We have to start adding points, because we are few,” he added.
He Villarreal wait Marcellin, his new coach. “It is clear that the ‘mister’ has to win by taking the team, training it, trying to adapt to his ideas as soon as possible, because we came from many changes in the game system and it is not easy “The last year has been complicated and we hope that everything will be better from now on,” he said.
