In the end, it turns out that getting the permanence and the third consecutive season a First Division for the first time at the Montilivi club it will be the anecdote. The Girona will spend the national team stop at the top of the standings thanks to an immaculate start to the season, in which he has added 34 points out of 39 possible. Is the leader. No one else has been able to keep up with Míchel’s team; nor Madrid, which follows closely with two less points (32); nor does Barça, who won against Alabès yesterday, remain on four points (30).
He Gironabeing aware of the level he has and the good sensations of the game he offers, competing against any opponent and adapting to any game plan, marked in red on the calendar the two consecutive trips to The Sadar i a Vallecas before the stop of selections. Until then, it had never been out of the top positions and, having reached the first third of the competition, it was time to check how far the team was really capable of reaching. “If we win both games against Osasuna and Rayo, or make four out of six, we can look up in the league. I’ve already told the players that I think this is a turning point. If we beat them, we will take a relevant level for the league”, he said Michel before setting course for Pamplona.
The white-and-reds, not only returned fromThe Sadar with a victory, but they had the cool blood to put themselves ahead on the scoreboard, first, and then end up coming back from a 2-1 deficit with another thrashing (2-4). From that moment on, he radically changed the speech of the coach from Girona, leaving aside the prudence and restraint with which he had always measured his words. He was no longer just talking about permanence and the importance of consolidating the club in the highest category of Spanish football, aware that salvation is more than done. He let himself go, allowing himself to dream big.
More ambitious goals
From “I don’t see a ceiling for the team” and “I dream of finishing between fourth and sixth position, being in the league of Real Sociedad, Sevilla, Betis, Rayo Vallecano, etc.” in Pamplona to the “now we are looking for more ambitious goals” and “the players can lead us to make real history” last Saturday in Madrid, where the Girona players staged another comeback against Rayo de Francisco who had gone ahead with a goal ofAlvaro al minute 5 (1-2).
This six out of six confirms that the Girona must look up. with 34 points out of 39 possible permanence is at hand when there are still six games left to finish the first round. The mythical number to achieve salvation is 42 points – there would be eight with 25 games left to play – although lately it has not been necessary to reach this number and, for example, last season Almeria close with 41.
Another (another) great comeback
So, exceeding expectations by far, the Girona is not satisfied with finishing in the middle of the table either and, from the most privileged position in the classification, thinks about the real possibility of competing in Europa next year And not exactly at the Conference League. “We have changed the message so that we notice what the player is asking of us. Permanence is very close, we have to look for more ambitious goals. They ask me. We have added two victories away from home, giving good feelings as a team and at a very high level. I am happy because we will be able to disconnect a little from the competition for a fortnight being leaders. The next challenge is to get them 53 puntswe will try to do them as quickly as possible to keep dreaming”, he commented Michel with the intention of surpassing the points record of the Girona by Pablo Machínwith 51 puntsafter being very close to it last year which ended with 49.
At this rate, they will be surpassed by a long way and the team will be able to play in the Champions League. Just keep up the pace.
