The Chilean coach believes that the 12 exclusions are a major obstacle in the fight to play in the Champions League.
Against Cadiz, Manuel Pellegrini he again witnessed two new players being sent off from his team. In addition, on the same field, he had to demand more composure from a Miranda who accelerated and was about to be sent off in third on a black afternoon, as the coach himself described in the press room. That action by the youth team against Iza Carcelén and the exclusions of Canales and Ruibal, due to aggression, again gave the head coach of Verdiblanco a bad feeling and he showed it to his players after the game.
Pellegrini made several comments shortly after the crash that he was angry after seeing how two new situations happened that not only harmed the team during the game against the team from Cádiz, but will also reduce the Heliopolitan team in the future.
An aspect that the Chilean believed the Betic team had already overcome, but that happens again due to circumstances caused by their own players, which is exactly what annoys the coach the most.
There are 12 exclusions that Betis has accumulated during this season. From the heart of the dressing room, self-criticism and appeals were made to correct specific attitudes so that they did not become more common, but the truth is that bad habits are precisely at the most delicate moment for the team, where they play to continue in the battle for the Champions League place that the entity so desires. Without forgetting that the rivals chasing him also get points.
There are many lineups conditioned by penalties due to evictions. Now Pellegrini will again experience a similar situation in defense. For example, on the right side, where Sabaly is injured and Ruibal has to wait and see how many games he is suspended, it will have to be Montoya who starts against Espanyol and who is at a very competitive level. The Catalan has not played since the last friendly against Manchester on December 10. And he hasn’t done that in the League since the game against Real Valladolid on October 9. The coach’s discomfort was shown in the dressing room immediately after the game and it will certainly affect that again this week.
