Asked specifically about the supplements, the coach avoided specific considerations and said, “We have to think about what’s here now and be positive. Truth is what it is, and we should consider making the most of what we have. I already said it when I came, and I claim that we have a higher level than the points we have reached. And my job is to achieve performance. I am convinced We will get better results in the second round. and I hope all Elche fans can feel better represented than ever before and will undoubtedly better appreciate the effort we will make.”

About Nteka

Regarding the latest addition, Randy Nteka, the coach was full of praise because “We have to thank him for the honesty he conveyed to us from the very first moment. what to talk about He showed that he was convinced to come. That his personal motivations coincided with those of Elche. It is essential that those who come make a commitment. “He comes from a team he counts, maybe not as rigorously as he wanted, but it’s admirable that he left a club in the top half of the table for the lower team.”

And the signature is ready: “Nteka is ready because he played minutes in the last games. He needs to adapt to our team. He came to the penultimate training session… He did well today. If we think we need him, he’s ready to play.”

end of market

Analyzing the last hours of the market, Machín said, “There are always moments of great uncertainty. And when things aren’t up to anyone, it’s best to trust the professionals. I believe that everyone is trying to do their best job…”. hot cloths However, those fringes can be decisive when left to the last minute. More than knowing the value of those who come and don’t come, We must value what we have. “These are the players we’re going to finish this season with, and I believe we can do better than we’ve ever been.”

And he added: “Things don’t always turn out the way you want them to be, but the way they end up being produced. The sooner we get the supplements, the more logical it is to work with them. But not everything depends on one. In addition, it is necessary to put the football players and other clubs, which are possible transfers, in the same direction. I am not the right person to tell what happened because the signatures did not fall on me. “I am a club employee who does his job to the best of his ability,” he said.

Better than the classification says

For Machín, “football players show me every day that they are better than they appear at the table. And it pisses me off that we can’t show that more minutes in games. When this is the case, everything that happens against us punishes us very much. All the expulsions we have experienced or missed very clear events are not normal”.

To fight this state “We need to clear the mind. We know where we are and we have to show that we are better than we’ve ever been.”

How are you in tomorrow’s game?

“With the uncertainty that the last days of the market normally create for all teams and players, we can say that we are doing well. We have no injury to prevent us from entering a competitive 11th. We have more difficulty in certain positions, especially in the pivots where we are more limited.”

As for the opponent, “It has proven to be one of the exemplary teams in politics in recent years. They are in good shape even though they didn’t win in the last match,” he said. For Elche, “Every match is an opportunity to show this improvement and become a competitive team. We do this in stages and the aim is to be more stable from the moment the referee whistles to the finish.”

Have you thought “I wouldn’t come if I knew”?

“When I make a decision, I give it with all the consequences. I didn’t think about it. I don’t think it could be what it is. I know the difficulties I had when I arrived. The position is complex but I try to do the best I know how to do my job. I have full faith that we will get better. Beyond classifications. We should think match by match, not the situation. Our league is one game. Compete well to have more chances to win. The goal is distant but not insurmountable”.

Is the team psychologically ready for this second round?

“The team is ready, but that doesn’t mean we’re going to forget the situation we’re in. We can’t just press a button and disconnect. We are professionals and have to put up with the pressure as well. Everyone competes with pressure. We must take the best from each and never give up.”

Have you thought about becoming more offensive players because things were not going well on defense?

“We are clear about what we are playing for, but the important thing is not only what we want, but also what the opponent allows us. We have to try to be a balanced team. Sometimes I believe in the essence rather than the system that we attach great importance to. To be able to play in different ways depending on the situation. We want to be ambitious. The numbers say so. We’re reaching more of the rival territory now, and the stats say so. Sometimes quality comes from quantity”. He also added, “The less the ball is in our area, the less VAR interference there will be, since the referees have been involved lately. That’s the idea, and competitors are affecting whether we can achieve this first approach 100%.”

Have you considered continuing at Elche next year?

“What we need to focus on is the next game. Everything can change in a week or a day. My idea is to improve the team, that’s my job. I don’t think about my future because the future of the coach is always very short term. I am a club employee and work for Elche. I’m not putting myself in front of the club. I have no personal goals other than the club and Elche. We have a whole second round ahead of us and the point is to compete,” he said.

But do you want to continue?

“I’m Elche’s coach. I am comfortable at work in daily life. We all like to win. I believe we will win soon. For me the process is very important and I am very clear that me and my coaching team are working well. As long as this continues, I’ll be happy.”

And if Elche drops to Second, will she continue?

“It’s just a decision that doesn’t suit me, and I don’t mind being so far away that I can’t help it. Right now I’m just thinking about improving the team.”

Did you find it odd that your comment about the absence of microphones last week was “viral” on the networks?

“This is an anecdote and many ideas can be put forward if taken out of context. Football goes a long way. That’s it for me… I was going to say nonsense… Without further ado, let’s leave it as an anecdote.

Do you think it would hurt you if Tete Morente weren’t leaving?

In the transfer market, everyone is likely to go or be talked about. Roger, it was actually a matter of hours. Others had options. But if you ask me about Tete and say that fans have filed criminal charges against him, I know it shows that he’s always prone and wants it when we need it. But If we don’t share between fans and players, it will be bad for everyone. For me, Tete is another player in the squad, and I think everybody in general should be helped from the stands”.
