The suspension of Taty Castellanos will be covered by Cristhian Stuani tomorrow against Sevilla. Míchel has recognized that the team will have to change the way they attack with the Uruguayan, because his characteristics are different from those of Castellanos. The coach recovers Romeu and warns of the danger of Sevilla, an “equiparro made to be in Europe”. However, nothing scares Míchel who assures that he has the goal of adding the 12 possible points against Sevilla, Villarreal, Barça and Valencia, in the next four games.
THE MATCH
“Sevilla is an equal. The goal at the beginning of the season is to be in Europe. Now they are good and have added 4 points out of 6 possible. They have very good players and it will be a very complicated game. With Sampaoli it is a very vertical team with high pressure at the top. It will be an open game and we will need to control the ball and transitions a lot.”
STUANI
He and Taty are different players and the team will have to do different things. Stuani is more of an area striker capable of controlling situations very well in finishing points. We have trained it. However, we’ve been working with him for a year now and he knows what to do.”
SITUATION OF THE RIVAL
“It is a very complicated match due to the level of Sevilla’s squad. We are a team that wants the ball and to be the protagonist. We will try to do it.”
EXTREMES
Riquelme and Villa are good, yes, but Valery and Couto when they play are also good. Iván Martín can also do it by starting from the right inside. We have many variants.
STREAK
“The most important thing is the points. I would have liked more to have won four games and lost two because we would be better in the classification. However, we are motivated and excited to be able to win tomorrow to sign the improved streak of days in Primera.”
PUNTS
“We have to think game by game. We can add the next 12 and that’s my goal, aware that the difficulty will be maximum. I’m not giving up. With our fans I have to be able to win tomorrow. We’ll have time to think about the next”
MANU VALLEJO
“He’s fine. He hasn’t played for days but he’s training very well and we’re happy with his attitude and professionalism. He has to wait for his moment. Will there be exits or entries? That’s a matter for Quique Cárcel. Right now the door is open closed but the market will dictate sentence.”
URENA
“He trained with us today, but there is a possibility that he will leave this winter market. I am concerned that he is fine and that the decision is the best for him and for the club.”
BORJA GARCIA
“He is very good. He has been at his level for a couple of weeks now, but he needs to play. He knows the competition is what it is and I have to look for the best in the team every moment. He is a player who will give us a lot cheers until the end of the season”
