…MANY INJURIES

It is not ideal to have so many casualties, but in the end we are choosing to bring up people from the subsidiary. In the call we need at least five outfield players on the bench and we are adjusting everything because the promise has an important game. We must manage it. There are five players on the bench and one of them is going to be Xabi Huarte. He is a player who was already in preseason with us and can adapt well to our game. He is fine and recovered from the serious injury he had. If he is in the call, he can make his debut, of course. To the already known casualties is added that of Moi Gómez who has been tested and did not have a good feeling. Xabi Huarte enters the squad because we need fifteen outfield players. Aimar this week we thought he was going to take that step but he has not had a good feeling, next week we think he may be there.

…LAST DEFEAT

It can't be the second half we did, that's not Osasuna. We did many things wrong and it hurts us. We have to remedy it, train, react... and tomorrow is the first opportunity against a great team. Casualties are not an excuse. We don't want to finish badly, it's important to finish well so as not to end up with bad feelings and be able to carry them over to the next season.

…JOSE ARNAIZ

When he plays on the wing we give more width to the field and focus more on their side. I think Rubén Peña can do that too. We have to give that a twist because we need that breadth to hurt the rival.

...INJURY REPORT

Bellerín, Marc Bartra, Bakambu, Chimy Ávila and Assane Diao are out for the match against Osasuna due to various physical problems. Isco due to the accumulation of cards too. It is the first season that I have seen so many injuries in a team.

...ISCO - FEKIR

Normally there are many rumors, but the quality of both is something almost impossible to replicate. They have a very high market value. They are both very current, Fekir when he plays is resuming his performance, especially continuity.

...EUROPE

At the moment it is an issue that we will evaluate at the end of the season. We know that if we have good results between now and the end of the season, the team will be very present in that fight.

...RUMORS

There are rumors. When you are a little below your level people talk but it is not the most important thing for me. We are going to try to qualify for Europe. I love the Beticos very much, the love they have given me here I have no words to describe. The best answer is in the field.
