Mehdi Nafti: “On sunday we will go out to win the match knowing what team we are facing”

The coach believes that, “for us it is supposed to be another challenge to play two matches at home, but we will insist on the same. The only thing that worried me was the match against Girona. The enthusiasm that it has generated and the positive energy is  understandable, but we will try to isolate ourselves and center in the match on sunday. Let’s continue on the same line, it is not time to check out the classification table”. 

Nafti confirmed the ausense of, “Bruno, Luis Perea, Palencia for yellow cards and we are still checking out the situacion of the hand of Javi Hernández and Omeruo that have some inconvenience on the adductor and will check back tomorrow”. he has refer to the change of the team on the lasts weeks, “After what we lived in Burgos, we talked and it seems that is far away but the reality is that it isn´t, because we do not want to live that again in a football match. I do not know another way that is different from work. Lastly, we know how to suffer more than the things we experience on 2021. we feel more secure and more assertive on the two boxes”. 

“For us this is a challenge to play more than two consecutive matches at home, but we will insist on the same thing”.

The Franco-Tunisean coach showed himself obsessed, “for doing my job correctly,and if the team, players and the staff are happy we will continue. I note confidence by the club, and I do not see another reason for not continuing. However, football changes all the time, week after week”. When they ask about the goalkeeper he assures that, “With Riesgo no one asks me if he will have continuity after we were saved in Tenerife. We decide, in the function of many parameters and we will choose on this”.

At last, the coach assured us that, “Playing at home, with your people, it is not permitted to wait for the rival. On Sunday we will go out to try to win the match knowing what we have in front”. About Arnaiz, he revealed that, “he will give more, he needed a goal, but even more when he do not have a good day he give the best of himself and I appreciate that sacrifice when a player do not have that day.
