He Yellow Submarine are meeting the expectations that Marcelino assured before the start of the competition, and that is, with the inclusion of new signings, and even having a complicated start to the calendar, they managed to maintain fourth place in La Liga, tied with 17 points including Atlético de Madrid.
Villarreal’s only defeat, so far, in the course of La Liga, occurred against the leader of the competition, the FC Barcelonain Ceramics (1-5) and against second place, the real Madridlast weekend at the Bernabéu (2-0). Anyway, the difficult part has passed, because, after the return of the national team break, Marcelino’s team will face the end of October and the month of November with rivals are less demanding.
The people of Castellón face each other Getafe, Valladolid, Rayo Vallecano, Deportivo, Alavés and Osasunarivals who, in theory, should not cause problems for Marcelino’s team. However, in the month of December they will face teams fighting for places in Europe such as Girona, Athletic and Betis.
Marcelino spoke about this aspect in the press conference after the defeat at the Bernabéu: “This is a calendar, in principle not so harmful“.
Villarreal’s goal Champions League team if it continues on this path, playing with the advantage of not participating in European competitions this year and having a bigger break for the players.
