Celades: "Mallorca have beaten some big sides at Son Moix"

The VCF coach analysed the club's upcoming opponents on LaLiga Matchday 20

Valencia CF coach Albert Celades addressed the media in his pre-match press conference before the game against RCD Mallorca (Sunday, 12pm CET).


RCD Mallorca

"Mallorca should have more points to their name than they do. They are a team who haven't done well away from home, but have got points at Son Moix and beaten big sides there -like Real Madrid and Villarreal. In my opinion they've performed at a very good level, even in games that they've lost, such as against Betis and Sevilla. We know that they will be very difficult opponents, just like any side in the Primera División. They are very well organised defensively and have a very good coach. The things they do, they do very well. They are trying hard. They've made some changes and made some variations, and we know how difficult it will be tomorrow.

Ferran Torres' inclusion in the squad

"He's in the squad and he's ok. We will decide what to do with him. He is fit to play and to help us, which is good news for the team."

Players returning from injury

"Whenever we get a player back from injury it's good news. Getting Kang In back is another bit of good news, and let's hope that we keep recovering players. The more players we have, the more resources we have in the squad, meaning we can approach games in the best way."


Gameiro and Maxi Gómez playing together

"Gameiro and Gómez haven't played together much, but that hasn't been because we don't believe they can't do so. It's been because Rodrigo has been there -a very important player for us. This competition is very tough for them as well; that's the reality. But we have a very good opinion of both of them. They are two high level players, as you all know. Of course, playing them together is a very good option -not just for now but at any time."
