“There are people here who have much more to prove.”
Luis Garcia placed no blame for Alaves’ heavy defeat at home and slammed the poor containment job. “Either we improve our defense or we will suffer greatly. We lost many games with a score of 3:2. There are handicaps with injuries behind, I don’t know if Sedlar will be in Vallecas… That’s everyone’s question.
The first goal is a safe game and we take a penalty. In the second, it is not so easy for them to catch a counterattack. We must know who we are. There are people here who have a lot to prove, especially me, and we have to keep working like animals to get every point. I’m very disappointed with the match. We weren’t good and there are players who have to give more. There is still a lot to fight for and work on this season, but the team needs to improve defensively. “This way we will suffer a lot,” the Albiazul coach warned.
And almost the entire press conference was dedicated to the many goals conceded this season. “Abkar and Moussa are not superior to Sylla in the first goal. We must not make concessions to our opponent. I’m going to kill myself so we can defend ourselves better. Today we have better defended the standard. In Vallecas we will be behind, but that is everyone’s question.. We can’t score four goals to win the game,” he criticized.
There was some criticism of the referee. “I don’t understand why VAR doesn’t call him because of Toni’s performance. John’s jump is natural, his hand cannot disappear. John’s was gray and Tony’s was fined. But I insist that we must be more decisive and do better surveillance.“, concluded Luis García, who made it clear that “the team must show its individuality again, and that is my question.”
“We can’t concede so many goals, I’m the main culprit for this. Since I’m here, it’s time to learn about the team’s shortcomings. We are who we are and we will never lose humility. We were wrong. We score goals and achieve goals. You must maintain the good and improve the bad; If we do this, we will continue to play in the First Division.. I’m already getting up and thinking about Rayo. We must know how to live in bad moments, we must be a team that fights to save itself,” insisted the Madrid coach.
