Valencia’s coach launches a challenge to the Uruguayan striker who has stalled in front of goal.
Defensive line of the team is playing good
I’m not entirely happy, but in the last game at Anoeta we showed a better defensive level, but we have to improve more. An improvement is noticeable, but against Atlético we weren’t very happy. We faced a fit team that was very vertical and dynamic. “You can’t make mistakes because the transitions are very fast. We have to match the level of intensity because it is a very important game. We cannot afford the fragility that we have shown in some games.
Europa is going good
We always go for the immediate. We must try to make Anoeta’s point good. We play at home with our fans. We must show the best version. We have to run and work more than our rivals. We value the rivals for the immediate and right now the Rayo is a great team. We can’t afford to waste 45 minutes like we did against Mallorca.
Valencia’s coach has trust in Maxi Gomez
Maxi knows that his numbers are not good and I have discussed it with him. He has to improve them for him and for Valencia. We need his contribution. He has to spend more time in the rival area, he is a smart boy and I am convinced that he will. “He understood. If there are colleagues who help more, he will have to wait for his opportunity. I always put the most competitive eleven. I will always respect what the fans do. I am one hundred percent sincere and I hope they are with the team. Mestalla deserves that the eleven who are on the field leave their soul and skin. We know what they mean for the club and we are confident that it will continue. Their commitment is maximum. They love Valencia and obviously suffer with the bad results.
