Ziganda: “The difference now is that we are more mature”

touched.

“With Lucas we have had a dislike. We thought it was an overload, he had no discomfort. He did not play as a precaution in Alcorcón, but after an MRI he has a tear in the soleus”.

“Brugman had discomfort, we did an MRI and there is no rupture. It will depend on his sensations to be able to count on him. It’s better, but after Lucas’s displeasure we are cautious. And Borja has the flu, with a fever. Let’s see how he is. We hope to count on Brugman and Borja”.

Alcorcon.

“He did not give us the offensive minimums that we have, because whether we play well or badly, we have depth on the wing and we generated with little, as we did the last 10. But the first 80, removing a transition from Viti and another on the left, we did not generate anything. We do not create uncertainty in the rival. And although we don’t have a fluid game, we do achieve a minimum per band. I missed that in Alcorcón”.

Second unity.

“They are very important for the objectives. Having that disposition and mentality of those who play less, of all, is basic. They contribute and change the results. Also in El Molinón it was modified with the changes. The players don’t care if they start at the start or 10 or 15 minutes. Coexistence and respect is maximum”.

Tarin or Costas?

“It’s similar to last week, the two central defenders give me guarantees. We count on everyone because we need them. We can have casualties and everyone can play. Tarín has fulfilled and performed at a high level. And of Costas I think the same as always”.

Many rivals with nothing at stake.

“Teams without a qualifying goal seem like they may lack a point of intensity or concentration. But we see games every week that say the opposite, like Ibiza against Las Palmas. From the clubs it is tightened, one position is not the same as another because of the salary cap, it is important even if the week is not experienced with the same intensity. We know the rival we have on Saturday. Confidence, the minimum. More cautious than ever.”

The Mirandese.

“The dynamics, the results, the confidence have changed… For some time now, they have a way of working that gives them good results. With an interesting scouting with young people, from the future. Also with some experience. It is an attractive, interesting compendium. With Etxeberría they show one more point of confidence, this is their best version of the season”.

Montiel.

“He is being decisive in the second parts and that is playing against him in the face of starting. I have to think the way that we have more chances to win. The feeling is that when he plays in the second half he solves the games. He is being decisive. He is one of the most decisive footballers. He sees it. He will want to play from the start, of course, but you have to look at everything, the team’s possibilities, anticipate what can happen. The feeling is that he gives us more attractive possibilities in the second part. In Alcorcón or Cartagena the match is complicated and you say ‘Joni, warm up, you can be decisive’. The good thing is that he is being decisive. And you can see how eager he is to go out every day”.

The best streak.

“The difference now is that the team is being more mature. We know the recent history of the club, we know how the end of the season has developed, we have talked about it and we are adapting very well to each game. It is because of the maturity of the squad. Do not let yourself be overcome by difficulty and know how to put up with them. In the last third we are fine, we have to see the end to draw conclusions. You have to put the icing on it.”

The response of the people.

“I notice a lot of enthusiasm, a lot. She touches herself. When I go out I do notice that people are happy, they tell you. I see people hooked on the team. And in need of happiness. It is a good sign, that communion is important. The day of Leganés was seen. They will be a great help on Saturday.”
