He Real Oviedo coach, Guillermo Almadathird of the season for the Carbayones, has dissected the keys to the match between his team this Saturday (2:00 p.m.) at the Carlos Tartiere al Real Betis. The blue coach highlighted the … importance of adding three against Pellegrini’s team to escape the red lantern of the classification, although he is aware of the difficulties that a squad full of resources like the green and white will pose.
Almada also referred to personal names, the winter market and analyzed how his team’s morale is after the last games. «We have taken a step forward in the issue of trust. We couldn’t win in Vitoria, although we earned merits. We have to sustain the good things we are doing and try to improve what we lack,” said the Uruguayan. The coach was also questioned about his team’s difficulties in defining: «Effectiveness is trained. I always say that you can train it or explain it to the player, but in the end the player is the one who defines it. It was a shame not to score, but having the goal situations opens up a much greater range for us to win the games. Effectiveness is the most important thing, that’s why you pay so much for scorers,” he noted.
«Winning is the most important thing in football. There are paths that lead you to that and if you play better than your opponent it will be easier. It happened the other day, but we couldn’t. I have confidence in the players, despite the quality that Betis undoubtedly has. Against Alavés I noticed a connection with the people and I am happy for the footballers. I think that the football side of Oviedo has been reversed in these two games, although we still have a long way to go. We need to win and I hope that anxiety doesn’t overcome us during the game. The support of our fans is essential,” adds the Oviedo coach.
In the leadAlmada has problems with the loss of Viñas, but he is clear about who he will line up against Betis while they bring him more signings: «The club is looking for one more signing for the forward to give us an extra. Forés had a good week and Borbas is a little further behind. We will wait until the last moment to make the best decision. Viñas was giving us a good performance and surely We will lean towards Álex Forés, who will have his opportunity. Joaquín is a player with very good conditions and numbers, but the problem is that we would spend a chip and that is complicated for a young player. If no one comes, we will bet on Joaquín.
Furthermore, regarding the declines in defenseexplained that “a Costas We are regulating the loads and doing preventive work. It is having a fantastic performance and I am sure it will continue the same. We are going to count on him this Saturday. Dani Calvo He had some discomfort and we didn’t want to risk it, but we will also count on him. Bailly is ruled out because he had a very big sprain,” said the Uruguayan, who also wanted to have a few words for the veteran and emblem of the club: «Santi Cazorla is a crack and is contributing to everything that is the work of the week. We would like to have a player with other characteristics that we do not have in that position, but it will depend on our possibilities in the market. “We are looking to strengthen ourselves there,” he clarifies.
Finally, looked at the rival, Betisand highlighted what his team is at stake. «We are going to give up our lives to achieve the results, we have a need and we have to fight for it. We will dedicate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to improving and making a living on the field. We always focus on ourselves. Betis has a lot of quality in many players and they can hurt you In many circumstances of the game, it will require a lot of effort, concentration and play. We will try to play and hold on when it’s time. You beat Betis by playing better than them, there is not much more. They have a great staff“, of a high level,” concluded Almada.
