Match rating
“Well, we know that it is super difficult to be continuous in a match against Getafe, the difficulty it has with a team that separates you so much, that if you advance even slightly they play very vertically, with many players in the last line who try to interrupt you and press you. In the first half I am not too happy with many situations with the ball, we played very vertically. We took the lead in the first half and there we have a little doubt about what to do. I think we went in a lot in the second half. Better, also the change of Aberdin, by adding a forward, they make it a little easier for us to be able to get out with the ball and find Iago and Bamba more in intermediate situations. When they are losing they also have to take risks and the expulsion changes the situation. We clearly have to score, but we were not successful in finishing and well,… I think it is a fair result in equality, I think it is a fair result in superiority, even short and it is worth appreciating that we were able to score. leaving a clean sheet against an opponent who has all the characteristics that make it difficult for us to defend: set pieces, crosses-shots, vertical play… We have taken a step forward, we have shown ourselves that when we are concentrated we respect the characteristics of the rival and we spend a lot of time helping the team not concede a goal, we are capable of doing it against any rival and it has to give us that confidence to assume that we are prepared to compete against any rival and that I believe that today, without having our best version we have generated many more chances than the rival and we are close to winning the match on an equal footing.
Jonathan Bamba
“For me he has played a great game, for me he has been very good in all aspects of the game. He has been capable of holding balls, capable of opening spaces, of defending low block situations very well. He is a very complete player who is not having the fortune of assisting or scoring a goal in the last situations. It is something that he has to work on and improve. I am glad that, like any other teammate, the fans help him, support him, encourage him, because he is an exceptional boy, He works very well every day and sometimes you are not lucky enough to get it right and it seems that his game is worse or less meritorious, but well,… I think he is on the right path, that he is working with great humility and that he is going to help us. contribute a lot of things between now and the end of the season.”

“It’s what I want, it’s just what I want, that the players make it difficult for me and that I have to think about the lineup a lot every weekend because everyone is raising their level. That’s what I want, it’s part of of our way of working. Mihailo is a player who has had so many injuries in a row with as much work as he does to be able to be well, that things are not working out for him, that he is not just healthy,… well, if you are in it. Every day with him it is impossible not to empathize with him. He works very well and when someone does not take care of himself you can blame him for getting injured, but he is a player who takes meticulous care of himself and is available every day. Let him go out on the field. game after so much time without competing and that he plays the game that he does, that it was good, that he had good feelings even though he is not at his best level, I am very happy and it is the least we could do, Let me notice that Tasos is already back, he is a player who contributes a lot to us, who depending on the context fits better than Borja. They both work very well, they understand the competitiveness they have between them. They get along great, it’s wonderful to see them work every day and today I think it was a game for Tasos, regardless of what happened in the Cup, because of how Getafe plays. It was more interesting to create spaces behind the back than between the lines and proof of this is the game that Tasos played, which for me is very complete with a goal, with another one-on-one occasion, with the expulsion, with the work he has done and good, happy for him and happy because he has that difficulty of, every weekend, seeing that there are people ready to start.”

Beltrán change
“Nothing, he has had complicated weeks with the issue of the birth of his second daughter. Resting in the hospital, with less time to recover and he had a little discomfort in his calf and we have changed as a precaution. It was the logical thing and because it came to us well oxygenate with the strength and energy of Ilaix so that in that direct game with the ball he contributed to us.

“Seeing him from the outside, the truth is that I would prefer him not to be on the field. He is a dangerous player, he is in good physical shape, fast, trying,… He is not having the luck of the goal, he has had one in the first half, but he is working very well, playing many minutes, which is important, without getting injured and the truth is that he is a player who creates danger for me and I would prefer not to have him in front of me today, to be honest I hope that from now on. Now he is doing very well, he deserves it. He is our player and I have a lot of hope for him, in the season he is going to have because he is a player with a lot of potential, who needs that continuity and I hope he has an equally good season with what he is doing. Not yet with numbers but he will surely have them if he continues working that way.
