He doesn’t even want to talk Manuel Pellegrini about what the future holds for Betis, above all, regarding the future of the Verdiblanco team in the medium term while the sports management is already examining profiles for the winter market. The Chilean coach has been blunt about the importance of evaluating the squad he currently has and closes ranks around any possible speculation about the possible arrival of Luiz Felipe, who must first terminate his contract in Arabia before taking any step in the market .
What Pellegrini did want to show in the press conference prior to Atlético is that there are three points at stake and that is what focuses the group’s attention: «Yesterday we spoke with Manu (Fajardo), Joaquín and Alexis topics that are not related to footballersno topic was touched on that is not a reality now, within which the sports management continues to work. We are not thinking about what will happen in December or January. The team spirit? What happened on Thursday was that we lost two points and we will see in December if they will be the reason for not qualifying. “We have to get into LaLiga and we only think about beating Atlético de Madrid,” said the Heliopolitan coach on the eve of the league match.
Pellegrini did not want to comment on whether he saw it appropriate for the club to reinforce the team out of respect for those who are there: “I don’t think this is the time to give an opinion on the squad, there are things that vary week to week, the most important thing is to focus in the squad we have to have a good campaign, to stay in the Cup, Conference and LaLiga,” he warned, but not without clearing balls over Luiz Felipe: «I reiterate again that as long as things cannot be done, we will not talk about future things. We already know what he contributed but we don’t talk about proper names, we think about Atlético. In January things change and could be seen differently.
In turn, the Chilean player was questioned about whether he trusts that it is a good time to reinforce the midfielder, Pellegrini made a reflection and included in the approach a Bakambu who will be part of the summons after the muscle contracture suffered on Thursday against Copenhagen: «I think he is in a position to be on the list, we will see for how long. The systems of each team impose a defined style of play, we have a more direct style than when we had players who kept the times, but it will not affect the result, wanting to have the players at one hundred percent.
Finally, Pellegrini valued the poor data he maintains with a significant rival such as Simeone’s Atléticobut the coach acknowledged that he did not care about individual statistics, but rather about the overall balance based on his own learning: «As a coach, I do not try to learn only with Atlético, but in an activity in which we handle a lot of information. What makes the difference is performance on the playing field. We continue looking for formulas regardless of who we play against. The individual part doesn’t worry me; Yes, the general one,” he admitted.
