this Elche CF there is a lot to improve Restart of LaLiga against Rayo Vallecano starting next Monday (9:00 pm). One of them stop goal bleeding (16) received within the first six days. And for that, Francisco Technician Francisco has to solve a dilemma: three centers, like he did in the first match against him Betis and in the previous last Barcelona; or go back to the most used quad defense at the start of the championship.
The trainer from Almería is looking for a solution, but cannot find the key at the moment. Injuries, send-offs, low level of many players getting in condition Elche team in the first games of the season.
Francisco started with the idea of playing with three centre-backs. That’s how last year ended and that’s how the current Betis match started. However, everything fell apart in Benito Villamarín. John Chetauya. The youth team formed a row with three defenders. Enzo Roco and Pedro Bigaswith Helibelton Palacios and Mojica on the wings. When the 15th minute was not reached with a player shortage, Elche’s coach had no choice but to use a line of four defenders, four midfielders and one forward.
On the second day, at his premiere in Martínez Valero, at home and playing against a direct opponent like Almería, his franciverde coach realized that they needed to take the initiative and chose four defenders, Roco and Bigas on the mid axis, like two deep sides Pol Lirola and Mojica and two forwards: Roger and Ponce. Elche took the initiative. Although the draw was a small reward, Roco and Bigas improved significantly compared to the match against Betis.
This defensive development made Francisco Keep the same starting 11 and the same defense on the third matchday against Real Sociedad. The result was not the same, the San Sebastians were a team with more material and packaging than Almeria and they created a lot of defensive problems for Franjiverdes.
on the fourth day, Disaster against Villarreal. Elche was a toy in the yellow submarine’s hand. The coach changed from Almería, out of necessity -Pol Lirola was injured and Mojica left with a transfer a few days ago- gave the sides an entrance. Helibelton Palacios and Clerc. But in the middle of the defence, he continued to rely on Roco and Bigas. The result was also not as expected (4-0).
Francisco continued to rock the squad in search of solutions and against the threat. Bilbao Athletics ClubAgain, he switched sides. Pol Lirola turned right and the Argentine Nico Fernandez Mercau debuted. The aim was to slow the pace of the Basque wingers (Nico Williams and Berenguer). Another hard stick (1-4) and a verbena defense.
Given the lack of solutions against Barcelona at the Camp Nou on the last day, the coach thought it might be time to return to the defense of the three central defenders. Gonzalo VerduThe player, who did not play for the first five days due to injury, appeared in the starting 11 with John and Bigas. But, again, everything fell apart before a quarter of an hour of conversation. expulsion of the captain, who had to put up a four-man defense and play with ten players folded back.
With one shortcoming, Elche measured many times. He avoided a scandalous landslide that heralded ten players to oppose an entire Barcelona. Francisco was content with the sacrifice, intensity, and physical waste of his players..
Now, the coach from Almería has spent a week without competition thinking about which game system is best for the team in these difficult times where the key to growth from defensive safety is.
Injuries and penalties
Of course, Francisco and his associates have already made this clear, although they don’t want to give any hints. Injuries and sanctions will be conditional. The vast majority of the team’s six centre-backs are in trouble..
Gonzalo Verdú will not play for Vallecas due to suspension. Pedro Bigas and Diego González are suffering from muscle problems and although they are expected to be ready for the match against Rayo, they are not one hundred percent.. After a bad start to the championship, Enzo Roco lost the confidence of the unworthy First Division coach through individual errors. The Chilean was already a reserve at the Camp Nou and did not play any minutes despite Bigas’ injury.
And as if that wasn’t enough, the Argentinean Fede Fernández, the only player in the squad who has not yet spent minutesAfter the last day of the transfer market arrived, he left before training yesterday due to a calf ailment.
At the moment, John Chetauya, the only defender junior squad player in good condition. This may further fuel the doubts that Francisco may have when deciding on one or another game system.
The team has a holiday today. Tomorrow, Thursday, when he returns to training, the coach of Almería will have more and better data on the physical condition of the players with the disease.. And depending on how they feel, they can choose a defense with three central defenders and try to finish a match with this tactical system or come back to the line of four. The mystery won’t be solved until Monday.
