The work is not done. Yet. Despite the atmosphere of optimism that invades the white-and-red environment, especially on the part of the fans, the Girona he knows he can’t let his guard down. You need to finish it off and finish tying a bag that already has a pretty strong knot. This evening at Valladolid, the team has the opportunity to strike a good blow at the table and leave the permanence sentenced. It can be the day, yes, because those of Michel they chain four unbeaten days (8 points out of 12 possible) with good feelings and face a direct rival. However, today’s duel in Pucela also has a certain risk. It’s a game of those traps and if the team doesn’t play it with the right mentality and competitiveness, it can come out scalded, as has already happened this season to Cádiz and in the first parts of the parties a Almeria i Getafe. The fear is accentuated by seeing the avalanche of casualties with which Girona arrives. And apart from the already known absences of sanctioned santi good i Taty Castellanos, Míchel confirmed yesterday that problems with the plantar fascia will prevent that Borja Garcia be there today too. In addition, David Lopez also not recovered in time. The casualty list is completed by the injured Angel Herrera i Ibra Kébé. On the contrary, the technician recovers Callens i Cleaner.
After many days with a typical eleven, Míchel will have to find them to cover the absences of four starting players. David López was already off against Elx and Juanpe took his place on the axis. Today, the canary will repeat and he will have by his side Bernardo Espinosa, who will play Bueno. Castellanos’ sanction will open the door to the eleven a Christian Stuani. The Uruguayan was not in the starting line-up since the defeat at Villarreal (1-0) three months ago. Usual upheaval, the Matador de Tala will live today just his sixth tenure in the League. In the other five, Stuani scored in three games: Getafe, Almeria, Sevilla. Therefore, no doubts and, as the technician recalled yesterday, “total confidence” in the “haystack” of the dressing room. The Stuani factor, therefore, will be one of Girona’s intimidating weapons, most likely they will have to change a little in the way they press and, therefore, play. It would not be to rule out the possibility that, even, Míchel opted to play with three central players and Javi Hernandez pass to the axis
The absence of Borja García will facilitate the return to the eleven of a regular until he was injured, Aleix Garcia. The ex-Eibar man will once again pair up with Oriol Romeu in midfield and advance the position d’ivan martin, towards midfield. The player on loan from Villarreal will therefore be the link with Stuani up top and will be accompanied on the wings by Tsygankov and Toni Villa. The winger from Murcia – who assisted Castellanos last Sunday against Elche – is shaping up to be a starter where he was at home for twelve years.
Between Toni Villa and Tsygankov, they will have the mission of trying to prevent two of the most projected full-backs in the League, such as Fresneda and Rosa, from joining the attack and, at the same time, helping to cover the most dangerous ends Gonzalo Plata and Darwin Machís who, already recovered, is emerging as a holder. One who will deserve a special watch is Cyle Larin. The Canadian, joined in January from Bruges, has scored five goals in ten games and is the big threat. Olaza and Anuar are out due to injury. The arrival of the Uruguayan Mauro Pezzolano on the bench in Pacheta’s place, he has given the Castilian team more joy in attack. Pezzolano, ex-player for Mallorca (2009-10) and who managed Cruzeiro – a club that, like Valladolid, is also owned by Ronaldo Nazario– is sanctioned today.
