Athletic, let’s do it!

A rival has visited San Mamés in the fight for the leading positions in Europe, and as such it must be dealt with. Our goal, try to win to increase the distance. Only. They are exactly the same as the ones we played against Celta or Rayo Vallecano, for example.

Trying to find other types of incentives and falling into obsessiveness and hyperventilation is left to others. Espanyol, today’s Second Division team, visited us more times than our rivals on Saturday, for example. To us, without entering the game where they want to summon us. Big Jupp.

We are entering an important week. It certainly won’t be the last time we qualify like this. The truth is that by doing things right, in seven days we will find ourselves in a more enviable situation. It all involves a positive resolution to our league duels and booking an appointment for that show that the cup draw turns out to be.

It never stops. Next Saturday we will visit the Mestalla, another forum where the team should show signs of maturity. We don’t always win, we know. But now, this group is in love. We can ask a little more from this surprising period. The benefits our team provides us, along with the enthusiasm generated by the classic generational change provided by this new batch of homegrown players, have dazzled us. Against all odds.

Keep a cool head and don’t fall into complacency. As he said, flattery is fading. With Girona, we started to become the fashionable team that everyone was talking about, and these kinds of issues tend to disturb those who are not used to so much applause from others. What is said, to us. The last seasons have put us in front of repeated collapses when the goal is very close. We had a bad experience in the last third of the League. Therefore, in this moment of strength, continue harvesting. For what may come.

To take the mouth

Everything is going according to plan. Those who predicted that everything would get worse were collecting cable. Not affected, even, by something worthy of criticism in any Sports Management like facing a season with only three center-backs. sweet The maturity of those who came to replace those who did not want to be one of us for a long time increased. And many. We happen to be one of the best defensive blocks and one that achieves the most clean sheets. Even if he has a loyal fan club or interested friends, we are not doing badly without him. Europe is closer again. Yes, he didn’t. Going to us, and to us. To those who want to come here.

We even got through the crazy schedule and counted our games without the best Iñaki as victories. Everything comes out. The first duels without him, resolved with victory. Anyway, come back soon. We need it.

Change of philosophy? He doesn’t seem to be playing lately.

If nothing goes wrong, here in seven days.
