Hercules lives a dangerous cycle that hinders your progress, grow as a block, become a team with real options to jump in category. Mathematics still supports his goal, but reality still continues his daily dealings with all kinds of problems. Building a defensive framework that gives Lolo Escobar’s football bet the credit he needs to face a complex success as Lolo Escobar seeks with minimal guarantees is getting harder and harder each week. This time he drops three pieces at once: Raul RuizRoger Riera and probably Diego Jimenez.
The first two won’t be traveling to Santa Eulalia on Saturday because of disciplinary action on them, and the third is because the muscle discomfort he’s had for two weeks has only gotten worse when he’s pushed too hard in training.
Everything points to the fact that the blue and white coach will once again have to form an unprecedented defender duo. The last event happened in front of me. Terueljust like a rival from the top Sport ClubHercules paid the price for this with a significant loss on the field, outstripping every convenience and without being able to compete with the leader.
6 PAIRS
Hércules tried as a defender this season
► The most used one was composed by Roger Riera and Dylan Leiva and played together ten times. The other five were Marcelo-Dylan, Riera-Truyols, Riera-Dani Marín, Riera-Mario Gómez and Diego Jiménez-Mario Gómez. At Santa Eulalia, if Diego isn’t low or starts as a right-back, Escobar will be seventh on the course.
Balearic Islands, currently in third place, They have lost just two games at home this season., only the team from Teruel are improving their home record in group 3 . This means they know how to make good use of the special conditions and small size of synthetic astroturf pitches, similar to those at La Almozara in Zaragoza. Standing suspiciously in front of Peña Deportiva often ends with an island celebration.
From the beginning of the season, Hercules, six different center combinationstoo much for a limitation that requires maximum understanding because there is only target behind them and any mistake made in this area usually has target value.
If he finally bets the Mario Gómez-Dani Marín duo against Peña Deportiva, it will be another central defender duo who have never played together.
Most used in the first 24 days was the day formed by Roger Riera and Dylan Leiva, who played almost originally (due to Marcelo Djaló’s injury in the first week of the League) with very uneven chances ten times. they had to call someone emergency solution in the quarryprovided dani marinesolvent in its performance, but has disappeared since the winter transfer market closure.
Central defender Riera with an offensive profile with a marked blaugrana seal, requester Pepe Guardiola , not the current one, shared the rear axis with Argentinian, Joan Truyols, Alicante’s junior squad and Mario Gómez. The latter played a game with Diego Jiménez, who will not be able to repeat with the former Unionistas de Salamanca defender if he does not improve much in the coming days.
This means that Lolo Escobar will have to invent a new formula line up two players who don’t share a minute as a pair of centre-backs. And that wasn’t enough, accompanying both of them with a right-handed side without a starting position this season.
In fact, he was Raúl Ruiz’s natural backup until last Sunday. Victor Eimil, was excluded from the team in many interviews due to a technical decision. It is difficult to fit the puzzle. Although Mario Gómez has shown the least credibility since his landing in January, he looks safe and if the Zamoran man recovers in time, it would be natural for him to play Diego Jiménez for a second time. never 100%.
If that happens, he could also fill the void left by the captain on the right if he were kicked off the team and Dani Marín (even Felipe due to his left-handed profile) could be placed to the left of the Sevillian defender. Whatever Escobar chooses, it will be. The seventh duo that Hercules tried in this exercise, too much for one team conceded more goals than he could score (25) (28).
