Javier Aguirre debuts with Mallorca on his return to the Spanish league. The Mexican needs to win in Getafe to reactivate the vermilion.
Mallorca is ready for a new coach
Experience is a degree and the new Mallorcan coach is not fooled by the old woman’s story: “doing easy accounts hasn’t worked for me and I can’t go beyond the first game, do you add and subtract and that’s it?, there is nothing written, I prefer to go one by one”, adding that “we have to get, whatever it takes, enough points to stay in the First Division and that is what I intend with my players, I am clear and transparent, and then The how, well, I hope it will be playing good football and beating the rival in tactical and strategic aspects, and that would be the ideal scenario”.
New staff in the team
Regarding how he has seen the staff in these first days of work, Aguirre is sincere in stating that “it is not the best time to have a few laughs as if nothing were happening, so I found a group that is very eager, with many desires, but a bit emotionally hurt, I have tried to make the team feel alive and to be able to compete”. On how the four internationals who have been with their national teams have come back, cases of Take Kubo, Muriqi, Valjent and Baba, the vermillion coach assumes that ” they all come tired, with jet-lag in some cases, but we are going to try to get them back”. On the other hand, Aguirre has recognized that important players like Olivan and Angel “are not yet one hundred percent.” Those who cannot be recovered are the long-term injured Galarreta and Greif, as well as Sedlar, of whom the coach points out that “he hurt his knee and we cannot count on him”, as well as the suspended Raíllo and Jaume Costa. In the latter case, Aguirre has called up two players from the reserve team: Gaya and Marcos Fernandez.
