Pimienta, on its continuity: “It is something to think about because of the support of the people”

It’s time to reset the mind and there has been time to refresh the legs as well. «I don’t know if this break is good or bad, it has been two weeks since the game against Barça. We have done work to recover sensations and improve things. We want to play with our people. We have been able to compete in all the games, “but we must minimize errors to beat Sevilla,” Pepper started.

«Since Quique’s arrival they have changed course, especially away from home. They are solid, they fight and they have quality. They can play the ball and go on the counterattack, they have a good set piece game, with Sergio Ramos. We must submit them and be patient, to sink them a lot in the opposite field,” said the Catalan coach, who emphasizes the “pressure” so that everything happens as UD expects.

Although Las Palmas has not won for more than two months, when they beat Valencia at home, they defended that they always show their face. «If we look at the games, I am proud, because except against Atlético, we compete. When you are at your limit, playing at your highest level, but without being superior to anyone, we are close to achieving results. We have to demand ourselves. We must be clear and consistent, know who we are. If we haven’t won for six games, because our rivals also have merit, it means continuing to believe in the things we do well. “If we go down this path, we are close to winning,” He insisted on the failures.

«I make decisions thinking about what is best for the team and that is why I make the lineups. If I notice that someone is tired, I will make changes. I am unfair and fair at the same time. “Everyone works very well to help the team,” he explained about the possibility of repeating his starting squad.

In relation to the eternal substitutions and scarce participation of the midfielders Fabio and Mfulu He added that “they are players that I know perfectly. I had never had Campaña, but I can tell him what I need. Fabio or Nuke are not playing because I understand that the best thing for the team is for other players to play,” added the coach.

«When we finish the games, we do an analysis. When you make a mistake in First Division, it is normal that the quality of your rivals penalizes you a lot. It’s hard for us to score goals. We kept a clean sheet and that gave us chances. Now, not scoring goals is penalizing us. It is not normal to have conceded five from Atlético and three from Getafe. Even so, in those two games we got a point. Key errors must be minimized,” commented Pimienta.

Regarding Isaac Romero, the great sensation of the rival, he said that “he has been in the youth team for a long time” and that he has given “Quique a lot of work.” “If he’s playing it’s because he has something,” settled. Regarding the possibility of calling Pau Ferrer, due to the similarity of the case, he made it clear that he does not call him because he “has better forwards.”

«We are not going to blame the defense, we must ensure that the rivals reach the goal less. You have to be alive in the aid. When we make serious mistakes on the defensive side, this makes the rivals take advantage of it. We are aware and we are correcting. “Barça did well to reach the goal, for example, it was not because of our mistakes,” he stated.

«I had been working for many years to reach professional football. I arrived at UD, I promoted and this year we are on the right track. We must consolidate permanence. “I am aware that he was working hard for this opportunity and to be able to grow in my career,” said the Catalan.

Without Valleys

«Aarón is a very good goalkeeper. He must first stop. Both he and Valles have very good footwork. He is prepared and he saw himself against Barcelona. Technically, he handles himself well, he is trained,” he praised Escandell, who will start for Valles’ red team last day.

«I am worried about everything we do not do well. They are the ones who focus the most, but not with Quique. We work on the strategy to correct, both in defense and attack,” said the Las Palmas coach.

Regarding his continuity, he clarified that he cannot “focus on personal issues” and that “permanence” comes first, while at the same time he thanked the support received in Arucas: “It’s something to think about for the people,” he concluded.
