Green and white coach Iván Ania visited the press room before the match against Deportivo de La Coruña del next friday at 8:30pm in El Arco. According to him, “we need this victory, the feeling of Malaga was great, but we lacked the victory, we conceded little, we got the first clean sheet, but if we want to move up in the positions we have to win.”
No pressure
Ania assured that “I am not worried in this sense, the objective is a matter of sequences and I know how these situations work, if you become obsessed, it is difficult to change the dynamics, if you give it normality, the objective ends up arriving.” I hope that this Friday we can score goals, and from now on, it will mean many points and victories.
For him, “we are on the fifth day, It is too early for this anxiety to arise. or this possible fear, today this situation is not in the locker room, the players are aware that it is a new category, the demands are brutal and we must adapt as quickly as possible to compete as if it were the last day.
The Asturian noted that “There is no feeling of anxiety or rush.nor fear. The atmosphere is good, there is positivity, in the first four rounds we had everything, it is about dominating the zones, being solid in yours and being efficient in the opponent’s, when we balance this we will be closer to victory.
Regarding his rival, he said that “in the end, they also lost the first two games, they are situations. You arrive new in the category and whatever the model or the budget, arriving at a new place is always difficult. It requires a period of adaptation, the same thing happens to us. Malaga is the one with the most points, Castellón dominates its rivals but struggles to be so exposed. We all play in the same league, but maybe having more budget gives you the opportunity to access a different market profile. In any case, we are important teams and we will show that last year’s promotion was not a coincidence.
The rival
Compared to Malaga, “they are different teams, Deportivo have great potential up front, on the wings and on the wingers with players like Lucas Perez or Soriano, a team very offensive, vertical, deep. If they find those who are well placed and capable of controlling you, a team profile totally different from that of Malaga, Dépor has incorporated new high-level players, the squad is one of the largest in the category. Iván Ania expects a match “in which we both want the ball, whoever gets it will be closer to victory.”
Regarding a possible crisis, Ania stressed that “it could be, but it would be external, it would not be like that in the locker room. We knew that the departure was going to be very important, you come from another category where everything has been very positive, that inertia makes you enter a new category and the change is not noticeable. We have not yet achieved it, we always think about victory, but if it does not happen, we must be calm, football has a short memory, but we have always lived with it.
Ander Yoldi and Jacobo
Regarding the possibility of seeing Ander Yoldi more often in the eleven, he commented that “there are times when he trains on the wing, other times as a second striker, it depends on the match that we decide. For Jacob It is not unheard of to play on the lefthe is always there, there is a situation in which he is always in the area, close by he creates a lot of danger. Just as Jacobo played a lot on the wing, he almost always played behind the point, with the exception of Osasuna Promesas.
Furthermore, regarding the transfer market and the possibility of a third striker, he said that “we have an area forward and another to go into space, I have not asked for a third reinforcement, I work well with what I have. Last year also passed and we succeeded with Houses and Toril. Having three can hurt you, so I have a job.
