The coach of Deportivo Alavés, Luis García Plaza, considered that despite being still in the tenth matchday, the match against Real Valladolid this Friday is “very important because it is a direct rival” and stated that they feel “strong” when they play at home.
The coach said, reports Efe, that they have to “try to change the dynamic and add three points” to put themselves in the middle of the table and admitted that they have to “work on certain things like group defensive errors.”
“We have trained the defense of set pieces,” he stressed, aware that “we have to improve that.”
He added that all players have to defend regardless of their position on the field. “We are in that phase of growing defensively and we are going to achieve it,” said the babazorro coach.
On the other hand, he seemed calm because “the team continues to generate in attack,” but he warned that as soon as they do not respect the rival, they will be “beaten from all sides.”
He also promised that “the team will respond in effort and activation” against an opponent that could use four or five defenders.
“We have worked with the two options, they may come to save and be together, but it is dangerous because he is injured,” said Luis García Plaza, who stated that the Pucelano team “has deserved something more in some games because they have chances but they don’t get it right and “When they get to him, they mark him.” “I could have three or four more points.” he added.
Asked about Asier Villalibre, who has only played as a visitor this season, he responded that it is a coincidence. “Not all the forwards can play. Asier works phenomenally and will have minutes, but Kike (García) and Toni (Martínez) are also good,” he analyzed.
