The Engineer appreciated the presence of his players in the national teams, but questioned the number of matches played during the season.
Manuel Pellegrini is heard. The Engineer showed his dissatisfaction after the injury suffered by Giovani Lo Celso, one of the figures of the Real Betis during one of the training sessions of the Albiceleste .
The steering wheel is a new victim of “FIFA Virus” named after the consequences suffered by some players after being called up for national team matches. The left-hander started against Venezuela and struggled during training before the duel with Bolivia. “A moderate grade myotendinous injury to the rectus femoris of the right thigh “, reported the green and white team.
Pellegrini, for his part, values his presence in the Argentine team, unlike other coaches, and does not complain about the displacement of Lo Celso. “I think Lo Celso should go to the Argentine national team like all players should go to their national team. It’s a source of pride for them and for the club. . I would have liked us to have 20 players selected because that would indicate that the quality of the team would be very high. This is also what schools are structured for,” he said.
The Engineer’s reviews
“We left it aside (the match against Legia Warsaw for) the Conference League and If the minutes are not well proportioned, players lose more games by playing everything . Now we have to play with the team we have, improve the results and stay on our goals. In December, we must continue in the Conference, in the Copa del Rey and in a good position in the league,” said the Engineer.
Of course, Pellegrini joined in with questions about the large number of matches played during the year and the strain footballers are under. “It’s obvious that playing that many games pays the bill in the end. Things happen for a reason “, said.
“Perhaps it was a coincidence to have three injured players in the same position. This period will be difficult “, he added, also referring to the absences of William Carvalho and Isco.
Betis will suffer the loss of Lo Celso for a period of four to six weeks . He could be absent for up to seven matches for the Greens and Whites, whether in the league, Copa del Rey or Conference League.
In his first month since returning to the club, The midfielder played six matches, managing to score five goals, establishing himself as one of the figures at the start of the season for the team led by the Chilean strategist.
