Despite a disappointing start to the La Liga season, Girona manager Michel remains optimistic. After a draw against Real Betis and a heavy 3-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid, the Catalan side, who finished a surprising third last season, are facing a challenge to replicate their previous success.
Michel acknowledges the team’s struggles, citing the loss of key players like winger Savinho, striker Artem Dovbyk, and midfielder Aleix Garcia, who moved to Manchester City, AS Roma, and Bayer Leverkusen, respectively. These departures have left a gap in the squad, and the team has been hampered by a compressed pre-season, which has limited their ability to integrate new players and solidify their game plan.
However, Michel is confident that the team will find their rhythm and turn things around. He emphasizes the team’s commitment and their ability to perform well, despite the setbacks. He also urges fans to stay patient and support the team as they navigate this difficult period.
The manager highlights the significance of fan support, emphasizing the crucial role it played in the team’s success last season. He believes that a strong connection with the fans can be a crucial factor in turning the tide.
Despite facing a challenging situation, Michel remains committed to building a strong team and achieving success for Girona. He believes in his players’ ability to bounce back and compete at the highest level. His message to the fans is clear: patience, unwavering support, and a belief in the team are crucial ingredients for Girona to overcome this initial hurdle and once again become a force to be reckoned with in La Liga.
