Imanol has all of his offensive assets at his disposal

In Real Sociedad’s best scoring moment this season, Imanol recovered his three assets at the point of attack: Oyarzabal, Sadiq and Oskarsson. The Icelander, fully recovered from his soleus injury, had more than half an hour against Dinamo Kiev, where he did not have much of a role. He only had one chance in the area and couldn’t dribble past the defender. Dyachuk.

Break lines

The Icelander’s return is good news for the Oriotarran who has all the forwards to rotate and dose his men. Until now everyone is playing Mikel Oyarzabal And it’s no surprise because the Eibartarran has got a cruising speed and is the team’s top scorer, with six goals. But when the captain needs to rest or position himself in his natural position as a left winger, the Icelandic striker can be a good option to break the lines and overcome the defensive line on the run, as they already did in European duel against Ukrainian. team with filtered passes from the midfield men to the back of the defenders.

Sadiq, unprecedented in goal

The one who remains rejected in front of the goal and lacks confidence is Umar Sadiq. The Nigerian, who has the support of Txuri Urdin parish as seen in the ovations he received when he took the field, added just one assist in the 453 minutes he played in eleven games. The one from Kaduna seems lost on the field of play and unable to solve even the simplest plays, missing controls and passes that a professional player should hardly miss.

Another riskier option but one that Oriotarra has already tried is that Sheraldo Becker as forward. The Surinamese occupied the leading position in Montilivi during the 10 minutes he was on the field and was able to fulfill his demarcation duties, despite the fact that he had no scoring ability.
