The Andalusian football player accepted this.They’re having a “hard” season He didn’t hesitate to confirm it. failure”. But, Frangiverde did not hesitate to confirm that his team would return to the First Division.. He also defended his arrival. beccacece stressed that now preparing for the next course and being done by the employer, Christian Bragarnikin front of the club.
What will Elche see in these last five games after relegation is confirmed?
A challenging and competitive Elche as always. The season was a failure because we didn’t reach our goal, but we have the advantage to see ahead of the next season. Although the results do not accompany us, things are going well. We’ve improved physically, we got a good home win against Rayo, we’re putting in good minutes and we want to continue to improve these good things, thinking about next year.
What do you think about the more than two thousand students attending education last Monday, despite the law they live in?
It was something valuable. The energy that children transmit is something unique and inexplicable. Such initiatives are being overlooked and more needs to be done. Let’s hope a little more can be done before the season is over and the upcoming campaign because the kids are enjoying it and it costs us very little to sign and take pictures and cheer.
Other contracted teammates such as Tete Morente or Edgar Badia have also expressed their intention to continue in the Second Division next season. Will Captain Fidel continue?
Certainly. I have a contract and everyone knows my ties to this club and this city. I had some incredible and wonderful moments here and this year I had to experience the other side of football and life. I had a hard time, but that’s how things are. I have one more year on my contract and I hope I can fulfill not just that but more.
The only goal next season should be to rise from the first game…
Certainly. That should be our goal yes or yes. The goal is to get back to where this city, this club and this fan deserve. Part Two, as we all know, is very complex. We have been enjoying the Premier League for three seasons and we are ending this season upside down because we failed to reach our goals in such an important and special year for the organization. We have gone through difficult times and we must correct the illusion and maintain the team-fans unity. I’m sure we’ll be back in the Premier League. We have the advantage of being able to prepare for the next campaign with a clear target, we must prepare by knowing the difficulties of it. It’s going to be a long season and we’re going to have some tough times, but there’s no doubt that this Elche will return to the First Division.
There are teammates like Gonzalo Verdú and Josan who have been on the roster for many years and aren’t sure if they will continue. Would you like them to continue?
If it’s up to me, of course. Josan has been my roommate for the past few years and we have shared many things. Sometimes we talk about being together longer than our spouses. From Gonzalo we all know his leadership and dedication. They have been key players and I hope they will continue to be so. But these are matters that do not concern me. I don’t know what the club will think but I hope they can keep up. I love them very much and have had many things with them.
Is the team convinced that Beccacece is the ideal coach for next season?
Completely. I said this after Pablo (Machín) was sacked. I don’t know if he was right or wrong. But I think it’s a success that he’s already arrived because he has the advantage of getting to know the roster, deciding on the players that should go on, and learning about their ideas and the way they work. I believe we will do important things. They came with great enthusiasm and we see a team that shows its face even if it is difficult, trying to dominate the games, playing to hurt the opponent on the opponent’s field. This is an ideal choice.
Captains, are you talking to Bragarnik? What does this tell you?
The truth is, he’s a closer person than he looks. When he’s here, he always comes down to the locker room to talk to us. If he needs a slap on the wrist, he does it just as he tells us when we do things right. He is very interested in trying to improve at the corporate level, at the club level, in the locker rooms, in the infrastructures … Never in my career have I had the infrastructures of the whole team like we had at Elche. breakfast and meal. This is a big plus. Football is becoming more and more professional and every detail, such as nutrition, is important. He is trying to improve himself and grow the club.
Have you told them about your project for next season?
Not at the moment, but I’m sure it will when it does. He’s a football fan and he’s telling us, individually and with everyone. Any journey joins us and is closer than people think. I personally appreciate it because it makes things easier.
While Elche could start advantageously as they were recently relegated and will receive money from relegation aid to build the squad, this season the top two of the Second Division, Las Palmas and Eibar, appear to be leading the standings, and three relegations from last year’s Granada, Alavés and Levante. fall is over…
We know that the Second Division is very difficult and it is a long distance race where you have to overcome obstacles. We must be well prepared. We start with the advantage we have prepared. We have to start strong from the beginning of the competition and a recognizable team can be seen from the first match. Hopefully in a few days we can start in our homes that will be private to the city. I had my first league game here with 20,000 fans in the stands and it helps a lot. We’ve had a tough year, but next year will be exciting and I’m sure our fans will support us and continue to be there for us.
What do you think of Sunday’s rival Atlético de Madrid?
I think Cholo’s most attractive team in recent years has emerged. If it’s characterized by one thing, it’s being a competitive team that fights for all the balls, very tough and hard to beat. He now has high-quality, leadership-qualified players and is gearing up for next year. Maybe less well known than in recent years, but they have a more attractive game. Had it not been for the blow he had, I’m sure he would have fought for the title.
