Voro: "The challenge for us is to win in front of our fans"
Salvador González 'Voro' gave his press conference for the match against SD Eibar, to be held this Sunday at Mestalla -and in which fans will return to the stadium for the first time since the outbreak of the pandemic.
The presence of fans
"It's great news and long awaited. We are delighted that the fans can come back to Mestalla, and the players are obviously delighted that we will have our fans there. We hope that this will be the start of a strong new normality for next season. It's been a long time. Football is about passion and feeling, and we need the fans to complete the circle and go back to what we had before. It's been a long time."
Lineups for the next two games
"The European Championships? That will be an aspect that we do not take into account. The A player wants to compete until the end, and we are going to choose the lineup thinking about the idea for the match and the characteristics of the opponents. There will be some changes because we played on Wednesday, but the idea is to compete as best we can to provide a difficult match for the opposition, and have the maximum chance of winning."
Thierry Correia
"He's looking well. He suffered a knock. He is a player with important physical qualities and the team appreciates him -because he gives us depth on the wings. He is ok, excited to compete and ready to help us win the game."
Less frequently used players
"The decisions are tactical. We are playing with one up top, and we also have to look at everything we have on the bench, the possible changes, etc. There are players who have not participated, but we look for the best for each game. This week has been special because there was a midweek game, and you have to conserve your efforts in order to compete well in each game. We will also assess everything for the last game depending on how we go into it. We will focus on tomorrow's game and from there we will assess what we have to assess, to achieve the three points in Huesca as well."
His ideal profile for a new coach
"As a football man, I would say that everyone wants a coach who provides a clear idea of the game. Leadership is achieved with results, and the most important thing is to look for a coach who knows how to get the most out of the squad -who has a clear idea of what he wants. The idea could be like Quique Setién, with offensive movement and having the ball or, on the other extreme, like my friend Álvaro Cervera, who gives up possession and is having a great season."
The growth of Carlos Soler
"What has happened to Carlos has been earned by him. He is a very intelligent kid, with a great predisposition to work and capacity for growth. The other day he was captain due to the circumstances, and I am happy for him, as he has a big future ahead of him. Everyone at that age is growing. The fact that he is captain and is Valencian is important and very nice too. He has renewed, he has a contract with Valencia CF in and in the coming years he will be important."
