The coach was self-critical despite the victory
His team won 2-0 in a good match against Alcorcón
The Ramis effect is beginning to be present at Espanyol. Seven out of nine for the blue and white since the coach arrived on the bench: “What I am most satisfied with is the result. The development of the game, as always, can be improved. I haven’t liked the last fifteen. We should have had more control and instinct. In other games we will need it. In general terms I am satisfied.”
Asked about the players with fewer minutes, he responded: “We need everyone. There are players who are about to enter and will have to add. They have to take advantage of every minute. They must do it to be better on a collective level.” In particular, about the midfielder Aguado: “he is having good games, although he still needs to improve in many things. In the circulation of the ball, for example, which has cost us today in moments of the game. “We have found opportunities due to the talent of the players, and because they associate well, but sometimes we have lacked rhythm and speed.”
In a more tactical way, the coach also expanded: “We will play with the heights of the full-backs and with the widths of the wide players. There are games that we will extend longer because we are interested in setting, depending on the match. Edu plays on the outside, while Jofre is more vertical and must make inside-out movements for him and his companions,” he argued.
For the moment, Ramis doesn’t want to look too far ahead: “We go in blocks of one week. The summary of these three weeks is good. The predisposition is very good, but we must continue improving to raise the level, because it is the path to where we want to get. Players who are participating less, or who came with discomfort, it is better to have reserved them and that they earn one more week of work before entering”
He also had time to highlight the team’s defensive work: “The goals against will come, in strategic actions or in good plays by the rivals. Likewise, we want to be a difficult team, difficult to progress, and when the ball reaches the center backs it arrives in poor conditions. That work makes you grow a lot emotionally and gives you a lot of confidence. With the quality that exists in the team we will then resolve it,” she stated.
